The Dungeon of Offtopic Offtopicness

Myself and BoS thought this would be a better idea than jabbering over other already off topic threads, so, welcome to the party.

So anyway we were discussing err... chavs

Me making a watercooled windmill rig between now (approaching end of school) and when I retire at 65 unless policy changes in the meantime but yeah that's one of my nerdy goals for my career.

Your welcome to join with any other wacky ideas :]
 
From this very post we need 3 more posts till a total of 50000 posts in the Off - Topic section. Anyway... I'm in year 11 which makes me better... (Love the thread description

) And yes this is basically the Off Topic - Off Topic thread.

I was about to say you'll pop your clogs sooner but then the chavs will get you first - I don't mean that btw

Lol one lesson someone fell over and then I fell over and wound up upside down hanging on a pole then my teacher came by "what are you doing?" "Oh... er... just some nerdy acrobatics" - has nothing like this not happened in your lessons?

Lol one lesson someone fell over and then I fell over and wound up upside down hanging on a pole then my teacher came by "what are you doing?" "Oh... er... just some nerdy acrobatics" - has nothing like this not happened in your lessons?

Ermmmmmm... No? The most exciting thing that has ever happened in my class is when I got to the last level of Cubefield.

You poor guy!

Every lesson is crazy where I am, I tryed typing with my nose and headbutted the desk instead, then got a detention. There's a software guy there who thinks I'm evil for being hardwarian who usually starts having an argument with me about drivers and how bios' work - he can't comprehend the bios chip and bios file are two seperate things that are both referred to as a bios - he also thinks you can run raid with cpus just by stacking them on top of eachother.

Are you aiming for a distinction (guessing is same curriculum you're on) a merit or just a pass?

Personally I'm not fussed.

. I don't really care what I get as long as it's a pass. I find it soooo boring completing all of the god damn files! I'm doing the course were you have to design a website (OCR Unit 2), Innovation and E-Commerce (OCR Unit 8,) and Creating Animations (OCR Unit 20) in option ICT. In core I had to do stuff like how to use word and Excel and stuff and creating a radio advert. As in the free version of minecraft?

Oh I did the website one but never had to do a radio ad for it. Prototype was 'grunkle.net' all themed green and brown =Z

Yeah I'm just after a pass because the work is made to take so much longer than it need do, for the love of peace, housestyles this, target market that - I understand to an extent but c'mon when they are asking me to make the information more lame man's terms when I'm the only one who would be reading it - what the truck?

And must of been free Minecraft - I don't play it but it was on school comps

We had to design a fitness website. It sucked...

Was it K.O. Sports by any chance?

Yeah and we had to figure out how to make a frame in DREAM WEAVER ARGGHH which took forever but got there in the end. I think the whole class only ever got to P5 of 8 in the end coz our teacher so unbelievably nit-picky. We've now been on P1 of Computer Graphics for like the whole term now and still nobody's work is good enough. You always dread attempting to sign off your work as it's harder than the final Nod mission in Tiberium Wars! And then everyone who she's been complaining hasn't done enough work she's gone and marked them off as finished up to P6 - when they haven't even finished P1, again, what the truck?

No it was Fitness For Life. We had to use some Serif programs which sucked pretty hard. Also would you happen to live in the north-west. And oh wasn't aware of that.

Maybe it was the same outline but each school got to decide specifics themselves.

Do you have Crysis 2? I haven't installed it yet because I'm still waiting for my disc drive and 5870s to arrive by friday but if you have it I'll know who to team up with for MP

. I'm trying to save money to finish my comp. Just need a 6870 and a descent KB+Mouse. I have CoD4 but I can only install it when my new HDD gets here tommorow. It for some reason doesn't want to install on this HDD. I recently have no form of income due to my dads company not having a contract with Home Sense anymore (I used to help deliever stuff on saturdays for about £30 for 4 hours)

blargh!

It sucks having a small income but ah well you'll have your own wage soon.

Quite happy with my specs now, was worth all that saving and going without
 
I am reading this while re-writing Zool (Zool is a video game originally produced for the Amiga by Gremlin Graphics in 1992) in Flash with all the original graphics! (used with permission) for my uni assignment

I figured that was random and in fact off topic to the off topic thread

Haha SCAN FTW! Do you think a Corsair A50 will be substantional enough for 4Ghz on a AMD Phenom 955?

Many have come to the dungeon of offtopicness. That's what they all say shortly before realising there is no way out and they are trapped in the thread forever
