Hmmm.. This looks like a good home for me, now that I have been kicked out of the Linux forum for not paying rent..

Makatiel
17th February 2002, 12:12
Down to my good friends house..
I said "Look man, I'm outdoors you know..
Can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"
He said "Lemme go and ask my wife"
I come out of the house, I could see in his face, I knowed it was no.
He said "I dont know man, she kinda funny and all"
I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too"

So I go back home..

well I think this is an appropriate home for you Makatiel. Being a overclocking guru and all. Welcome to your new home.

Hehe.. Just what the mods wanted to see.. Another spam thread for everyones enjoyment ;)

(I am kinda glad I am not a mod over here cause if the people over on EOC posted like we do, I think I would lost my mind)

Kinda nice, Mak. The linoleum in the living room has got to go, though.

Billy_Bat
17th February 2002, 14:36
It is easier to clean spilled beer off the linoleum in front of the tv. Carpet gets all stinky. ;)
On a overclocling and cooling note, I picked up a Volcano7 yesterday, and I think I like it! Quiet, and about 10-12 degrees (C) cooler than the stock hs/fan.
On a genome note, also put together a Celeron 900 @ 1071 on a little TUSI mobo, crunching 24/7
Thanks, Mak, I'll be back later!:cool:
Good Luck!

We got a nice couch you can sleep on over at our place.:D

Makatiel
17th February 2002, 19:23
I like it here. It's all dark cept for the TV. There is a satelite dish with about 700 channels. There is a fridge full of beer, and LOTS of wings. Hmm.. Gonna be hard pressed to get me to leave.

What do you mean you spilled beer??? Party Foul!!! Party Foul!!

Billy_Bat
17th February 2002, 20:11
I hope that was beer... You don't have a dog here, do you? I couldn't waste it, so I squeezed it back into your cup from the towel I sopped it up with. Was that wrong?

I say we replace the linoleum with a wooden floor and wood shavings. That way no mopping. When the wood shavings start to clump from spilled whatever, sweep 'em up and toss on freshies. Nice wings, Mak. I saw siggy hauling a bag of 'em out a while ago. No worries though. She has a mean sauce at her place.

18th February 2002, 01:22
Hehe.. Yes, my cooking rocks.. Give me a few hours in the kitchen and I will whip up some food that would blow your mind.

Soon in Makatiel's Place we will be serving Linguini and Meat Sauce w/ Italian Sausage. ;)

Mule
18th February 2002, 19:34
I`ll bring a case of Chianti To go with the Linguini.
Must remember not to eat all the olives on the way over.

Makatiel
18th February 2002, 19:36
There is nothing like a good wine and olives with a nice italian meal. Mmmm..

I am definately going to have to whip up something good this weekend now that I have gotten thinking about it..

I have to stop reading this thread before dinner. It would be better titled Mak's Bistro.

Makatiel
18th February 2002, 20:22
Can you tell I am hungry at the moment ;)..

Actually, I am eating simple tonight... Mac & Cheese.. Dont feel like making anything too extreme this late into the night.. That and the fridge is mostly empty..

Need to get off work early tommorow and get my ass out to the grocery store..

siggy
18th February 2002, 21:04
See Bachelor pad. You would not catch a group of woman sitting around eating Mac and cheese. :p

Makatiel
18th February 2002, 21:09
Well, no, that is not what I would normally expect, but, this forum is full of unexpected things so nothing would surprise me..

Makatiel

Oh come on now.. This forum needed some action.. It has been kinda quiet lately.. I mean.. Overclocking to get more genes, that is a VERY important pursuit.. ;)

siggy
18th February 2002, 21:42
well I have a new board on the way so I can get my main computer back on line. Maybe you can overclock it.

Makatiel
18th February 2002, 21:47
I am sure I can.. What motherboard is it?

siggy
18th February 2002, 21:57
well its not a ABIT. I hope your not going to puke on me too. :p

Its the ASUS K7V133-c without onboard sound.

Daniel, Laura, and Nora
19th February 2002, 00:00
Oh for Pete's sake. Another hardware thread....

Makatiel
19th February 2002, 00:24
Oh come on now.. Of course it has to be partially a hardware thread.. It IS in the overclockers section after all..

Dont worry.. It wont be all hardware.. There will be plenty of spam in here too :) ;)

ASUS is good too.. They make some excelent boards.. Nooooo, I wont puke on you Siggy ;).. (Though I still think you should have gotten a KT7A.. hehe)

Anyways, yes, I will definatley be able to help you overclock that board, no problem..

The other one that is quite good is:

But of course, I mean, we are in the little overclockers corner of the forum..

Oh tell me you never dreamed about being able to overclock Spam. Everyone in their right mind dreams of overclocking spam.

Actually, no, more toward the middle actually.. To be completely in your left mind you would have to tilt your head to the side and shove a large fish into your right ear. Quite hard to do actually..

Nah.. I am done with the dish washing for now.. (Hence the dirty glasses over here).. If you want clean dishes you are gonna have to do it yourself.. ;)

Remember one thing.. Navy has bugger guns than the Army and better planes than the Air Force.

Anyone who's into Sci-Fi, and even those who aren't should read Enders Game by Orson Scott Card!! I promise you won't be dissapointed! And if you are, well... I'll eat .... This candybar over here...

It's a seriously good book, as are the 2 sequals (not quite as good) and there's a 4th book called ender's shadow that's the same story from the perspective of a different character. I know it sounds like a quick book... story's been done blah blah... But it was done REALLY well.

Anyway, The Buggers were the (supposedly)evil alien Race that humanity must exterminate. Think of an insect version of the Borg...

I read it I liked the first one much better than the sequals. I'll have to try out the forth one. Have you ever read his Alvin the Maker series? Not realy sci-fi, not fantsy, but very good. It's about American history with with a twist.

I haven't, but I will! Enders Shadow is the story from Bean's perspective. It's kinda like reading the first one over, but you get to read it for the first time... Again.... Uhh... Or something...

Nah, I am not working on the server right now.. I am working on this damn power supply. I guess maybe I should post pictures of how it is going over here too..

I should have ordered the parts 2 Day air because my damn transformer isn't going to be here until monday, and I still have not been about to find the correct filter capacitor. Grrrr...

40V 14000uF Electrolytic Capacitor

There was one place but they didn't have one in stock and to have a cap special made, you have to order $500 worth..

I guess in the evening I will post the pics of how the thing is coming along.. I got the power switch mounted last night and I am just waiting for the fuse holder and transformer before I can finish the input portion of the thing. Then I have to wait for the rest of my stuff to get here so I can etch the PCB..

Well, I will post the pictures and explanation tonight..

Ahhh.. Yea, I need to get last nights pictures up..

I have posted it over @ EOC. I need to upload the pics from my dig camera to the web and then I will post them over here too.

I am building a bench test power supply right now. 30V Variable power supply up to 5 Amps total draw. Right now I am waiting for all the parts to get here, so I am getting the enclosure ready and getting ready to etch the PCB.

Nofinger

Makatiel

Nofinger
21st March 2002, 08:58
I only find it still not realy cosy in here, maybe it's because there is still a lot of rubble on the floor from the last party and there should be done some realy big time house cleaning ;) :D

so maybe we should send the health inspector to this place, maybe Makatiel will clean it up then :eek: :D

siggy
21st March 2002, 09:13
Well Im not going to help clean it. Makatiel did not lift a finger at SIGGYS PLACE when we were going to be inspected. So I will just sit back and watch. :p

Nofinger
21st March 2002, 09:17
Me neither, Maybe some of those army guys can help him, at least they have the stuff to get rid of those huge rats :)

Makatiel is NAVY. Course I dont know how he feels about the other branches of service. But maybe he thinks that the NAVY personnel are too good to be cleaning up, so I guess the ARMY personnel would be ok with him then. ;)

Umn.. I dont know what happened when I was gone but there was some crazy stuff going on that I missed..

Cheaper, cheaper :mad: Why is my Bill then so high, I only had 2 rum cokes and nothing to eat :confused:

And then there is still the matter of me being sick after that last snack you gave me, my dry cleaning bill from last night from when you missed you "famous" bar gliding shot and I was coverd with beer.
You'll may be cheaper but I'll only visit this place to know why I go to Siggy's Place.
Nice looking female waitresses(sp), good drinks, Nice Music (live played by good band) good and friendly company and not to forget A CLEAN place :D
