  • I really should find more things to do these days. Maybe someone could throw me an app to code every day or week, and I'll try to do exactly that.
    I'll probably be saying something similar to that over the summer if I get to an extreme level of being bored. :P

    Too bad my knowledge of coding is minimal. At least I could probably do something in PHP if I wanted, but I'm all out of ideas.

    At least next semester is all project and no classes for me, so I get to spend a lot of time doing work on the project. (It's a game.)

  • Ok so I am going to try to obtain a Raspberry Pi, and do all that stuff to put emulators on it so I can relive my Gameboy Color experience, kinda. Like it'll be on the go and what not and look like a gameboy, but will be playing Gameboy, SNES, Genesis, AND GBA games, because roms and emulators. Can't wait. Any of you have suggestions on what I should put on my custom Gameboy color shell?

    I want to get a Raspberry Pi one of these days just to have one, but then I'd have to find a reason to own one.

    What if I told you the Raspberry Pi 2 is much faster than the original and can run Windows (albeit the IoT version)?

    Just don't take a picture of it. 8)

    With the flash turned on, I suppose. The Raspberry Pi 2 has a Flash vulnerability!

    Only Xenon flashes that pulse really fast affect them, though. Even dual-LED pulsing LEDs that end up perceptually as a flash to the human eye(as found on high-end Lumia smartphones) won't stop the Pi 2 in its tracks.

    LOL

    I know Xenon flashes use a lot of electricity, maybe it has something to do with the high intensity discharge near the device that causes the issue.

  • So the mouse I had been using for the longest of time with my desktops finally decided to wear out. It's become nearly impossible to use the left-click button on it, and cleaning it of gunk/dust did no avail either.

  • Here, might as well take ours. Barely been used, which is a shame.

    Dammmnnn. That moment when your computer suddenly starts making horrendous noises and becomes unresponsive. I got so scared I turned the thing off. And when I went to use it again a little while later, the first thing it tells me is that it's updating the BIOS. Opps.

  • So I was in Computer Sciences class and was working on the concepts of linked lists. I was typing out my code snippet when this happened:

    Wat do.
    Don't you already know that the semicolon is the answer to all errors in coding?! :P
    I really don't know, but I thought this answer was funny. April fools!

  • You're supposed to return the value of whatever that is you're testing, so in your case you should be returning "whateverhead == null"

    My laptop seems to be throttling in games nowadays. I think I might need to get its internals cleaned up. Stuttering where there wasn't any screams "something's not right".

    After all, the laptop is just a few days away from being 1 year old.

  • I was getting assistance on something from my computer professor the other day, and when performing changes to an assignment, I hit Ctrl+S on the keyboard, and she asked me to click the diskette in Access to save. Aren't those pretty much the same thing? XD

    I Ctrl+S any of my work religiously.

    I've seen several developers who are not tech savvy, like how do you even get very far as a developer and not be tech savvy?

    It could also be possible that she didn't take notice of me using the key combination, because she asked me to Ctrl+Z something I did wrong a few seconds later (and she literally said it like that too).

    That's good. I had an intro to Java class where the professor struggled with opening a PDF.

    Asus customer service is suggesting me to send in my laptop for dusting out the internals due to possible heat problems. The thing is probably the fact that I still need the laptop to complete a project I'm working on.

    Decisions, decisions. At least it's not critical, so I guess I'll hold off on this until sometime later.
