  1. Installing LinuxCNC - first time non-Microsoft for at home (well, since A800XL, anyway).

      Crap - no idea what kind of monitor this is, so I'm stuck at 800x600 resolution until I can figure out how to fix this - I don't want an OS, I just want to run the programs...

  2. It's kind of strange when homebrews are sold in a "futures market" fashion.

      That's a great way of putting it. Felt the same way.

      I've been told once you can remember your password, it is time to change it.

      Actually, it's better than nothing, like the past 2+ months. :)

  5. I wanted to do a search for "ColecoVision programming tutorial", but I typed Intellivision instead of ColecoVision

      My advice....Don't do that or you won't find what you're looking for.

      because you have nanochess's IntyBASIC on your mind. It is that effective. :P

      Yes, Canada has their Thanksgiving on our Columbus Day, for reasons I never understood. :) Well, you get to celebrate it twice!

      I think we celebrate it earlier because our harvest tends to be earlier.

      Tickled_Pink

      And moving smoothly onto the big question - if you're teleported, are you you or are you a clone?

      When I was in College I had an awesomely small Aiwa "walkman". It got stolen, and I could only afford a bulky player. :(

      Remember those! My older brother had one!

  12. it's a well-told story as literary and moving as To Kill a Mockingbird, except with a paper-thin plot where Scout couldn't talk for some reason and kept smashing shit with a crowbar

      It's not my thing, but I stumbled on this quote, and it speaks to me. :)

  13. Adding circuitry for composite video on the CV1.2 PCB, even though it pains me to do so ;)

    1. FastRobPlus

      FastRobPlus

      If it pains you to do it you are holding the wrong end of the soldering iron.

      Ha ha! Right now it's just a layout on the computer.

  14. Little spider: 1; Big wasp: 0

      Thats sweet!

  16. There's something in my eye (or is this "old" now?)

    1. Cebus Capucinis

      Cebus Capucinis

      Things aren't considered "old" until a certain AA member (I won't name here) posts a status update about them.

  17. I just killed two flies at the same time; they must have been distracted; one was on top of the other for some reason

  18. On the highway, being passed on the right should be illegal!

    1. desiv

      desiv

      Then get out of the fast lane!!! ;-)

    2. Emehr

      Emehr

      What's funny is when someone is passing you on the right and it's obvious they don't have enough clearance and have to hit their brakes behind that slow semi. Major derps.

  19. Starting a 6 month contract position on Monday!!! - hopefully ends up being full-time after that

  20. It's a major award!

      the.golden.ax

      Yeah for a few weeks now. Irritating isn't it. What was that hurting them any?

      Bryan

      Yeah, it used to be useful for finding similar things or compensating for the ways people list things.
