    Is flag burning legal in the United States?

    Texas V Johnson (a 1989 Supreme Court decision) ruled that flag burning laws are unconstitutional. However, if I were to go to the local courthouse and burn _their_ flag, I could be put in jail. If there is a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment, it is that the government may not...

    Things to do in Pittsburg?

    I'm traveling to Pittsburg for an interview, and I'm going to end up staying there from about Thursday to Saturday. I'm only going to be doing things during Thursday and Friday during the day, so I'm going to have a bunch of free time. Can anyone suggest some good/fun things to do in...

    Will Ichiro do it?

    In statistics we were shown an example like this. It showed Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and whoever was at the top during 2001. Then, it showed them in relation to a plot with _all_ professional baseball players at the time. The lesson showed that the guy in 2001 was better in relation to his...

    How long does it take to crack an 8 digit password?

    The only time having a hash weakens a password is when there are collisions. It's why many people are using SHA-1 instead of MD5. Also, if someone has write-access to the hash file, they can re-write the hash file so that they know what collides.

    Making a phone ring

    If it is a "normal" phone that does not require a power cord, you can apply a certain amount of current (45V, IIRC) through the telephone wires to the phone, and it will ring. Normally (if you're connected to a network), the system will then drop the current to a certain voltage that is below...

    How long does it take to crack an 8 digit password?

    That would be 26 letters lower, plus 26 letters upper, plus 10 numbers = 62 chars 62^8 = 218340105584896 possible combinations It really depends on what you are cracking. Zip password crackers can try 4.5 million/sec, Excel crackers are about 230,000/sec. From what I've seen, OS crackers...

    Plan to get revenge on a soda theif at work

    You guys don't realize that if you do anything to saboage the cans so that he gets screwed up when he drinks it, it happens to your own cans. So you won't have anything to drink. That said, I believe an anonymous letter on the company fridge will do the trick.

    YAGT: Craziest thing you've ever done to impress someone of the opposite sex?

    Okay people, what is the most outrageous thing you've ever done to impress somoene of the opposite sex? I don't mean something you've done when someone asks you a favor, I mean something you've done so that you can look good/funny/smart/cool/caring/whatever. I've dove ("accidentally" fell for...

    Yeah, I've got an IBM trinitron that does 2048x1536, it's refurbished but I haven't had any problems in almost a year. Got it for about 300.

    which CPU should i buy for a rather small micro ATX

    750 duron - those things run cool. :P But seriously, get an A64 (a mobile, 35W if they have it) and use cool&quiet - it automatically adjusts your CPU speed to what you are doing. My 2ghz 3000+ used to run at 800mhz most of the time, and I would get temps below ambient with stock cooling...

    Got a 3.2 P4 now, should I still build a AMD 64 system?

    Uh, some of us have to think about money. Just because he is going to get a high end card doesn't mean he has wads to spare. Also, a 3.2 800mhz P4 will benchmark within a few percentage points of a 3500+. They're both good chips. Personally, I'd wait until everybody gets their act...

    cannot overclock amd64 2800 NewCastle

    Do you have Cool and Quiet enabled? When I did, my multiplier was at 4x and cpu speed was 800. Run something like super-pi and see if it goes up.

    Of all the past presidents, which do you wish was in office now?

    Actually, when he was governor of some frontier state, he ordered the massacre of an entire indian colony (town, whatever), including women and children. Although I always say that Harrison was the best President overall, because he left the country in the same state it was in when he got...

    Anyone on DVORAK keyboard format?

    Heh, I remember good times switching the keyboard format of a friend to DVORAK in the OS. There is nothing like seeing a guy who can type 50 WPM type 50 completely nonsense words in a minute before realizing something was up. The guy had to make up a list of what QWERTY key corresponded to...

    Thinking of changing my major...

    There are is a long test that people (a company) can do called an aptitude test. It's really cool, beacuse the good ones will pretty much show you what kind of job you would be good and happy at in certain fields. And no, it's not like those crappy internet tests which don't tell you anything...

    POLL: Could you under ANY circumstances ever envision yourself committing murder?

    Wow, the wording used was "envision." That pretty much means using your imagination. Did you ever play cops and robbers (or whatever) as a kid? If you were on the robber's side, you have envisioned committing murder. Ever played a FPS? You're pretty much imagining yourself killing someone else.

    Prozac 'found in drinking water'...

    Yeah, the govt finally got us healthcare for everyone - this the Prescription Drug Bill part of it. *mood killing psycologist mode on* Actually, prozac doesn't really do much to people who don't need it anyway. It just turns on certain dopamine (IIRC) receptors and secreters in the brain that...

    YAGT: "I think I'm falling in love with you"

    "I think I'm falling in love with you" has to be the least effective way of coming out and showing inital affection in all of human history. And the only thing you can really say in that situation to make her feel reciprocated is "I think I'm falling for you, too." Because anything else...

    I think Bush is going to win

    His name. It's not George W. Bush. Also, Republicans will win control of Congress (most likely). A democrat executive branch and a republican congress means little governmental action (which is good, in my book). While I don't approve of all those people who are voting for Kerry w/out even...

    My favorite memory of selective service was when I was getting my driver's license renewed. The guy in front of me was in full punk regalia: black clothes, chains, piercings, the whole do. I believe he was renewing his license too, because all I heard was: DMV Lady: "You've turned 18. Do you...

    Bush Lead Thread:8-12-04 AOL poll: Bush wins in landslide

    Do you guys remember when some nerfhead at AOL sold millions of screennames to spammers? IIRC, that guy wasn't in the top of the IT ladder. I wonder how high on the sysadmin staff you would have to be to get write access to text file where the results are being kept?

    Will we never have a completely legit Government?

    The fewer powers a government has, the more legit it is. So an anarchist government would be totally legit, just like a quadrapalegic in a coma is the most law abiding citizen. This is my logic on why Harrison was the best acting president (he was a horrible civil rights demolisher as a...

    does this guy actualy have a case?

    First off, it's libel, not slander. Libel is printed, slander is spoken. He pretty much doesn't have a case. Does he even have your address or real name? You can countersue, but you must prove actual damages. Unless you are a practicing in the medical field (then, malpractice insurance...

    Wow, you guys have apparently never taken Texas History during middle school. (We all had to) If you ever go to the Six Flags park in Arlington (don't know if they have it other places), they have all six flags flying. There are also areas of the park that are mexican-themed, or texan-themed...

    windows 85?

    well, you usually have to download them (which costs something), and then burn them on a cd. But it doesn't matter what microsoft does with anti-piracy - there will always be free software to go to. If MS suddenly makes their new OS crack-proof (and NO ONE breaks it), everyone will not jump up...

    If you're walking down the street and you see an ATM going crazy and spitting 20 dollar bills what do YOU do...

    There was a problem with some ATM somewhere (I read it on fark a while ago), where both the $10 and $20 bill racks were filled with $20 bills. The bank didn't file charges at all, even not towards the people who withdrawed their entire balance in $10 amounts. As to the spitting money question...

    Time travel?

    There was a good article in a sciam about time travel. It had all of the major theories about time travel. It did give a theory about travel to the past. If you could create a wormhole, and rotate it somehow to slow time down in and around it, when you entered that wormhole later you be...

    65 degrees C

    You should probably get some fans in there to push all the hot air out. Your hs/fan can only cool so much if you have dead, hot air in your case. On the other hand, yay for A64 cool and quiet. At semi-idle (iTunes, mozilla, random little programs) I'm running at 35C, with ambient temp at 33C...
