Geeks In Space: Return from the Turkey

Comments Filter:
  • The whole time you were talking about the sex flyers and Comdex I was cracking up. It's usually pretty bad, but to me it seemed many, many times worse because of Comdex. It was a little rediculous if you ask me. It would have been fun to run around with one of thoes HUGE Creative Labs bags and collect thoes things from all of the mexicans. Just think of all the things you could do.. It could be:

    1. Survival kit for Y2k (Just think of the bon fire :)
    2. If Y2k doesn't use it all up (Cuz their would be a hell of a lot of pamphlets) You would have paper to start fires when you get a break for a week and and go camping.
    3. Grab yourself a scanner and start a porn site, you would have the largestest porn site on the net!
    4. Paper Airplanes? You could make an entire airport with them.
    5. Papermache your entire house (It would go good with your car that has been re-done with AOL CD's)
    6. You could start handing out pamphlets yourself, you could claim that you have a rare one and try to sell it.
    7. Start a porn pamphlet collection, kind of like collectins Comic books, or baseball cards. (Comdex would have been a cheap place to stay it, would you not agree?)

    Afterall, what did everyone else do with them? I think they just threw them on the ground 2 seconds after they got them, littering the streets like mad (What was it, 2 feet deep in porn papers?).

    Anyway's, that was my experience at Comdex. How was yours?

  • Once again an funny and intelligent show from the boys, did anyone else hear Potter mention that Cmdr Taco, might be visiting Australia

  • Well, the music is better -- kinda strange, but pretty cool, and definitely better. Whatever that was last time from 00:15 to 00:22 was scary.

    Pentium III IDs

    Does it really matter how much the NSA and FBI were involved in creating the IDs? What matters is how they can be used, regardless of whose idea they were, right?

    People at Comdex [...] What is Slash...Dot? [...] If you don't know, we won't tell you [...] everyone else trying to sell stuff [...] sitting there reading e-mail

    That really is funny, since, like you said, every trade show booths anyone's ever seen was full of people waiting to pounce on anyone who shows the slightest interest in them. You guys must really scare the average show-goer -- walking by, and even lingering for a minute, only to be completely ignored by a bunch of guys staring at their laptops must make them wonder when they entered the Twilight Zone. It was the same at the last couple of LinuxWorld Expos in San Jose, when it was all I could do to get your attention long enough to buy a pair of T-shirts.

    200-millionth page load

    Yeah, but how many of those were Greg reloading the front page, trying to get a "first"?

  • Lay off, guys. No more cough syrup for you all.

    This is probably the strangest GIS yet. Except perhaps the GIS 3 SP1 episode.

    Very amusing, but very... rambling. :-)

    "I'm SAILING!" LOL!

    Hey, those Voodoo2s are only like $79 with a $30 rebate these days, and you've only got to give in to the evil that is 3dfx. They're still quite decent and they're very well supported. I just wish I didn't have to get one, since I've already got a TNT, but those drivers just don't seem to be going anywhere. :-(

    Oh, and congrats on the 200M hit.
  • Hey-yeah. Geeks in Space #15. History will be made. Boobies will be touched.

    Episode #15 [thesync.com]

Every cloud has a silver lining; you should have sold it, and bought titanium.

Working...
