The New Admins: pt II

By some strange folly, I have become an administrator at PP. I wonder how that happened; I wasn't even in the poll.

I did some admin stuff though, like creating subforums; it was pretty fun. Astra is showing me all of the stuff I can do. Unfortunately, she's also showing me all the extra stuff I can do that I really shouldn't., such as give myself pp money and make the withdrawal rate 0% so i can take my money out tax-free. lol, she's so bad...

It's pretty cold and windy outside...I'm glad I wasn't out for very long; just long enough to get some food. I really need to clean my room up a bit, it's getting a bit messy....

Another Day

So today was interesting.

I signed up for a moblog a few minutes ago so I'm looking around on that trying to customize it..

In class I went to my math computer science class (CSE113) and Professor Hart went over the homework, I believe I did fairly well; especially for doing it at 2 in the morning. =P The stuff we're doing now is getting a bit more complex but so far I still have a pretty good grasp on it; so that's a relief.

As for my Computer Science class (CSE114, the actual programming one) we did a lab today. I finished with a little extra time; but not very much so I didn't really get to browse the interweb at all. We had a quiz in the lab, too. It was kind of easy but it sucked because I don't know very many UNIX commands and we had to write 5. I managed to get 5 though and use them.

bash
mkdir CSE114/
cd ~
csh
javac lab1.java
chmod-R 700 ~*

so yeah I used those...Not very complicated but I sort of blacked out and couldn't remember any.

So after that I went to yet another Computer Science class. This is the fun one. We make these cleverly named "slide-togethers" and it came out really cool. I'll take some pictures and send them to my moblog when I get it set up. I took some extras home too so after I do the homework (make another, different one) I'll take pictures and post them. It was fun. The girl next to me was having problems so I had to help her. My other professor (who's taking the class) messed up a little, too. It's pretty cool that one of my professors is taking the same class that I am. It makes him much more approachable because this is such a small class. =) I talked to him for a few minutes; he seems really cool. Professor Hart is really cool, too. I'm really glad he started this class.

Well, I'll be posting my pictures within the next few days so be on the lookout.


The New Admins...

I received this u2u today; and i think it's kind of funny.

I would like to inform you that you are not allowed to delete posts unless its hurtfull or offensive as in cussing to another member or to delete your OWN post. thanks


I'm not really sure what to make of it other than to ignore it because it's just stupid. If I cared I'd check the rules to see if anything really says that. lol.


A
stra, you're right, you should delete the rule; it'd be pure anarchy. It'd be funny to delete a post and someones like you cant do that, it's against the rules. And i'd say "What rules? Go check them." XD


Anyway... that's all for that...

Quotage


"I try to be a nice, easygoing guy, but it really pisses me off to have to deal with it [plagiarism]."
—M.T.
I definately wasn't expecting this...


"Take advantage of the T.A."
—M.T.
Not sure I'd want to do this. Especially since all of my T.A.s are male.

"I'm really excited about this class because I'm hoping we can do some pretty intense reading and writing."
—M.Z.
I never knew reading could be "intense." The same could be said about writing.

"I'm very 'fond' of language."
—M.Z.
Yeah, me too.

"Small notebooks inhibit imagination."
—M.Z.
I'd like to see some proof for this one...


"Keep those little fish, so they don't slip back into the deep."
—M.Z.
Just plain silly.

"We be learning a lot of dialects and we be learning lots of morphemes and allophones"
—E.B.
Pretending to be "Snoop Dogg"

"... just so you get a little bit of 'the magic.'"
—M.Z.
More silliness from Marilyn Zucker

"Okay,we're going to Grandma's house."
—M.T.
I have no idea why he said this.

"Comments make you think 'What in the world were you thinking?'"
—M.T.
Right before telling us to comment our code...

"I watch this crap on T.V.; it's just awful."
—M.Z.
Then maybe you shouldn't watch it?

"How many chose number one? Number two? YES!"
—M.Z.
Trust me, choice number two was not all that exciting.

"There's a bunch of problems, but it shouldn't take you very long — maybe two, three hours."
—G.H.
I'd hate to know what "long" is.

"For all I know, there's a guy in the coke machine ... and I don't really care."
—M.T.

"Please, for the love of God, don't mix increment and decrement operators!"
—M.T.

"Strings are bad because of their syntactic sugar."
—M.T.

The semicolon: a fantastic hunk of punctuation."
—M.Z.
Not quite James Dean, though.

"I'm not worried about a happy trapezoid."
—G.H.
Me neither. Unless of course it were to turn into an angry one. Now an angry trapezoid is something to worry about.

"Let's make an icosahedron on a stick!"
—G.H.
Mocking art that puts cubes or other polyhedra on a stick as if it makes said cube more interesting.

"You don't want to sound like an idiot who grew up in the last 100 years."
—G.H.

"If you were an upper-class man, you would never go outside without your donut on your head."
—G.H.
I still can't leave home without my donut hat. A day without my donut hat is like not living at all

TimMierz: dragoon vs nothing
chibibravecombo: eh dargons
—bashed
Apparently, Tim's friend isn't too bright.
