  1. Finally got put on a new project that isn't documentation! I get to design my first IC now.

  2. The moment I got to tell my lab partner I was not going to do the honors project was amazing. Because, he is honors and I'm not and I wrote all the code this semester.

      If I'm wrong on it being the third largest it's just because I repeated what I heard there, could be wrong or missed a qualifier.

      Oh I was just letting you know I didn't really know either, all I know if that I hear constant concerts from anywhere 3-10 miles away all night.

  4. I just went through a lot of setting up my headphones and brought my roommate in to test them out. After Istarted playing some music for him he laughed and said "haha you're playing them through the speakers". Then he went to take the headphones off and his mind was blown when it was the headphones.

  5. Just got a personal tour of Tyson's Flight Facility and got to sit in the cockpits of around $100 million dollars for 2 planes. The pilot then went through all the systems with me and everything blew my mind. Absolutely insane!

      You can't just take two medium jets off the ground without doing a whole lot of work prior getting it cleared to do so.

  6. ATT&T decided to shut off my internet a day before the billing was due, but I was really confused because it only blocked this site for our house.

  9. So after the curve I'll have a B in my programming course, except I failed both exams and the syllabus states that I should fail because of that. If I get a B and then get failed I'll be pissed as fuck...

      One of the 2384658233294 reasons I will NEVER live in any "roomate' situations

    3. Krakin

      Krakin

      Not really a choice, since the reason I live here is that I act as landlord for my parents and if the third room isn't paid for by someone else I get a nice raise in how I pay.

  12. All life is, is fucking up until you die. So you better hope you fuck up or else your time is coming.

  13. As a few may know, I've been trying to reteach myself the piano, as such I've been doing my usual research in something I'm interested in and wondered on this nice paper on the engineering of a grand piano. http://www.ingenia.org.uk/Content/ingenia/issues/issue12/dain.pdf

  14. While I was back home I went over to play on my grandparents grand piano. It is such as shame that it has become a vintage decoration instead of an instrument.

      For those of you who care, it is a Bosendorfer from 1890, can't remember if it is the imperial or not.

      I get the benefits of using their toys, but I had to work for $8 an hour on their ranch for many years. They wouldn't spoil me, lol. They done messed that up with their on son first.

  16. Was an idiot and forgot to buy tickets to the symphony early. Guess I'll have to wait for the next one in March.

    1. mcfalcon

      mcfalcon

      Imo, money well saved lol. Idk but don't think a symphony would be my cup of tea. Although I do like like listening to the crickets and frogs while night fishing. Lol

  17. Got the approval from my boss to start the application process to intern at the Glenn Research Center.

      I might man, but I'll be applying with another co-worker, which means we will probably look for an apartment together.

  18. Battlefront Beta is out tomorrow, who's all gonna try it out?

  19. When your TA asks you to help him with his doctoral paper. Made me feel good.

  20. So I was at a Being science project board meeting today with some coworkers. I was reading a board for some NASA project and I made a sarcastic comment that I didn't believe in space and my coworker said that he thinks that NASA is a scam for money. Well, ended up some high up from the Glenn Research center heard us and confruted us. Long story shorter I got her business card and was told to apply for a co-op and let her make the arrangements.

      I got that shit here. Do better or you're going to turn me off.

  21. So I'm building a computer out of spare parts I had for a friend and as soon as I pulled the CPU out a the motherboard he touched the pins.... I now can't get the CPU to work..

    1. Emmet

      Emmet

      Did you test the cpu before you pulled it? That shouldn't have done any damage unless he bent the pins. Or drags his feet when he walks.

    2. Krakin

      Krakin

      I had been using it in my main computer.

      I still want to believe I just have something plugged in wrong, but I'm not thinking I do.

  22. Writing Conference Papers is one of the most boring things I've had to do at work.. Not only writing it, but as soon as I'm brought onto the project having to come up to speed and also write about what I'm coming up to speed on.

    1. Krakin

      Krakin

      These are technology conferences. I have to make sure everything is presentable to the upmost scrutiny as there are people coming from all over the world for these.
