Irene in bed gaming :shock:<3
Some mental pictures I shouldn't have.
And Inq that's why you stop posting when he posts a number.
yeah ditto. A few different XP configs, clones of my work machines, and several linux servers
It's like his Russian Roulette.
You guys are lucky I went back a page to see if I missed anything.
I never know what to make for a chat thread so I just don't bother.
There's your fucking title
Currently I have Windows 98 (which was an experiment before I inherited an old machine that I could put it on), FreeBSD set up as a LAMP server, Ubuntu Server set up the same (Ubuntu has a pretty idiot proof automated LAMP install, but I wanted to learn to do it "properly" in FreeBSD as well), and a couple of toy servers.
**one of those whole rotisserie chickens from the grocery store
He refused me.
They always refuse me.
People around here gushing over each other ... I wonder if its all in jest or if there are sexually repressed people or both or neither or what. Either way, new [chat] smells funny. Wear it in! Do it!
Oh, I've got a Haiku VM and some other tiny OS whose name escapes me right now
We're a bunch of college radio DJs. It's a miracle there is ever any food at these potlucks. Everyone brings beer of course, but my chicken will probably end up being a major contribution.
Please, someone, set me free
Or tie me up, if that's your thing
Free yourself.
Different Microsoft CTPs mostly. They've got a long and rich history of breaking Visual Studio when you try to uninstall them to install a newer version, so it's never worth the hassle.
I've also got separate 2005 and 2008 VMs just for cleanliness' sake, and another with a bunch of Oracle 6i tools for working on some legacy stuff at work.
I've also got VS 2005 on my native Vista box for XNA work, because that needs the hardware acceleration.
edit: It's just nice to have a seperate VM for seperate tool-sets, instead of crufting it all together and bogging everything down.
Hey, with some case mods, it could BE a hedge trimmer.
my little sister is paying for the account right now, so I'm-a piggyback (my being in PST helps for this!)
Cute Asian gaming female nerd. Why wouldn't you gush over her, But seriously its all in jest seeing most of us are in serious relationships.
My toys are generally things that I want to learn how to use/set up/admin but I don't want to mess with on my existing machines. One of them's another Ubuntu server that I was trying to do something with Ruby on, another I set up to try out ssh tunnelling, and one of them is Slackware, I forget what that was for.
Invariably I set them up, then forget the passwords or some kind of critical set up information, and end up deleting them or starting over.
Plus when 64bit xp still had a lot of compatibility issues, it was a good idea to keep a second boot of 32 bit for some games.
:x
Well that's just sad. Move to Florida, I'll take you out for a beer, and find you a nice girl to take you home.
You're tlaking like XP 64bit doesn't have those issues anymore. That's called crazy talk.
But I appreciate the sentiment. I just need to be more... assertive? With this one girl I have some classes with. I think the interest is there I'm just a great big pussy is all.
Well a lot of games have been patched so it isn't as big of an issue.
Because I am not interested in the secrets of the far east? But really, because I don't gush on intertubes people, am not really nerdy enough to go for the nerdy girls, and someone once hurt me and I can never love again.
Well, not the last one so much ... I just ... don't. I'unno. I'm a strange outsider! Don't trust me and my foreign ways!
The worst that could happen is she laugh in your face in front of everyone.
And then I must endure her scorn for the rest of the semester! Nah, I'm not really scared of the ramifications of asking her. I just have a terrible time of broaching things like that. I just gab on with her about other things while I'm with her, I only remember things like asking her out after the fact.
Don't worry we'll get you drunk enough to where you'll stop caring.
*Elendil yes... yes we are
