It's been a while since I last did this...



Here's me, pretending to be teaching C++ to an empty audience. The motivation is sort of an inside joke, and I'm too lazy to explain

Yes, he's older Max. Maybe this scene was cut out from the version you saw, but Noodles also sees the actress' son and he looks just like Max when he was young. This hints that Max had a son with her and that Max is still alive

I've not seen this film for years and I can't even remember this scene to comment on it, but it's possible that it doesn't have any significance.

Nobody mentioned the reason it's so easy to convert to HEX from binary.

1011011111100011010

You simply split the binary number every four digits starting from right, then you convert each four digits to the corresponding hex number

101-1011-1111-0001-1010

5-B-F-1-A.

With minimal experience, you can instantly convert 4 binary digits to a hex number and vice-versa.

That would be no fun, seeing how we already have a winner.

Wow, a tie with nipples!

The only thing that can stop your hair from falling is the ground... A sad truth that all of us DNA-cursed men have to deal with.

Different materials have different heat transfer rate. Try, during day, to touch a stone and then on a piece of iron that were both laid out in broad sunlight, in the same place. Both materials have the same temperature, but iron can transfer heat to your hand at a much faster rate, therefore giving you the illusion that it's hotter.

Ok, I would like to know why does the ground cool first in the evening before the air does

For the same reason the ground warms first in the morning before the air does.

and respectively, why does the ground warm first in the morning, then the air.

Oh, the transmitter/receiver idea would make the concept of a voodoo doll possible

Man, think BIG! Think gaming!!!!

A wireless spinal impulse controller! Like play Crysis and actually feel tropical breeze on your face, taste salt water and smell gunpowder... whoah! And coming back to porn... eh

That's like... The Matrix.

But now you mention it, wasn't there some kind of experimental microchip they put on someone's brain, and he then was able to kinda move the mouse pointer with his mind

Thank you RickJ for clearing that up. My professor is often wrong with details like this, but at least the man knows how to teach. It's only my first semester in university and I'm glad I can understand when he's wrong (it's not the first time).

InCreator: I suppose it is possible, but still freaky. And Ghost, I don't think it would require a physical connection, both people could have some kind of transmitter/receiver that picks up the nerve signal and convert it to something else and vice-versa, like a modem works. I'm next to clueless with this stuff, so correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry for taking over the thread, but...

I'm not convinced. Every variable, including pointers, has a value when declared (which is what was left in the memory from other programs). Pointers having a "random" value when declared never generated any problems. So why now?

My other professor says that the above code never produces a segmentation fault. As long as you don't access that memory slot in any way (either read or write over it), it's all good.

Another opinion I heard is that it can only produce an error in some operation systems but not all.

I know it's pointless knowing anyway, because nobody would even want to have stray pointers, but it has been bugging me a lot

well, basically, we were having an example on how to use pointers instead of arrays.

Code: ags

//p is a pointer 
for (i=0; i<MAX; i++)
{
    *p++ = i;
}

I know it's convenient to just say p[i ]=i, but this is for the sake of an example. Note that p is never used again after this code. This shouldn't ever produce a segmentation fault, right? Even though, when the loop ends, the pointer points to a place we don't know... But my professor insists that the above code might cause a segmentation fault.

Ok, a question that has bothered me for a while.

In C, when you set a pointer to point to an unknown memory slot (either by adding to it or simply setting a number to it), is there any possibility to cause a segmentation fault or any problem at all?

Note I'm talking about pointing somewhere, but not reading/writing over there.

I personally think there should never be a problem, as long as you don't attempt to read/write over it, which may or may not produce a segmentation fault depending on how lucky you are. Some people seem to disagree, one of them being my professor.

here's a very silly photoshop I made for a friend:


I was supposed to pose with the card and take a picture before I sign it. I couldn't do that in person, so...

And no, I'm not in any way affiliated with KKK.

Is it too late to say thank you to brokenbutterfly? Well, better late than never.

Now I only have 1 year left before I can legally enjoy all the privileges of an adult in all the states of America!

I don't remember if I posted this before, it's the latest picture I took of myself.



I use that mobile phone for so many things, ranging from reading novels in pdf format to connecting to the internet. I carry it wherever I go, it has become my third testicle

I haven't taken a pic of me in a long while...

So here's me at home.


And here's me at the army, trying to fake an emo pose...

Here's a more recent pic of me. I haven't changed much, except I am getting fat (can't really tell from the pic).


I am such a criminal!

Army makes me look so happy...


Me again goofing out

Mash, you do of course realize the hat is just there to disguise the fact that Zachary is a cone-head because Mr. Hyde here just impregnated some alien chick not too long ago.

Well, it's not exactly a cone, but he's still not fooling anybody.
