Worrying is about as effective as chewing gum to solve algebra

I remember the days when Hacking Exposed was a new, and applicable, book.

I also remember the days of playing RA2 on a 2mb graphics card. Shit, I still have (Within grabbing distance) a 4mb Matrox. That's how hardcore I am.

    Lol, I have a stupid, godforsaken ISA soundcard. Bleh. Heck, that computer came complete with a whopping 400 meg hard drive and 16 megs of ram! Upgraded to 45 megs, of course...

        Heh. Old... That comp with an ISA soundcard has a socket 7 Pentium 1. Oldest thing I have. Well, oldest thing I personally own/have bought. Oldest thing I have is a C64. Now THOSE were the shit!

          C64's aren't the shit.

          They're pieces of brilliance that came to us in a silvery cloud, directly from God.

              Nono, 'the shit' is for pretty good/cool things, or things that're cooler than normal.

              C64's are far, far more than that :B

                  Not yet. I wasn't big into doing batshit things with pcs back in those days, I could barely build them, let alone mod them :(

                  I do, however, fancy having a crack at phase change cooling a slot processor. Just because I think it'd be fsking hilarious.

                  I've got an old dual slot server board (It's, no joke, got to be at least two feet long, by a foot wide) that I want to toy with, again, for shits and giggles.

                    Haha, make it into a webserver somehow and host the details with what you did/are going to do to it online! :P

                      ..Tempting.

                      We'll see how things pan out, I've got a couple of weeks in Spain/France to pay for soon, so certain things are likely to get put on hold (Three hundred quid phase change cooler, for example) for a while :B

                          A couple of friends and I are going to that and somewhere in France for a bit of a laugh.

                          I'd go to Germany, but I'd be one of these sadacts tha actually wants to see the war museums/remains around the country. I'd love to see some of the old Nazi buildings that've had the Imperial Eagles removed/modified, and the flak towers in Humboldthain Park :B

                            Thats pretty much what I'd do in Germany. Least, its what I'd do from the first trip, until I was done with seeing a lot of them. I really want to go and see the memorial at Auschwitz.
