    116 year old virgin

    If he's able to survive all that time with no education or by herding goats, then good for him. I wouldn't mind living such a simple life myself but I don't think the environment, time, situation will allow it. I don't wanna be homeless is all I am saying. As for the sex thing, I understand...

    Fragmented Internet???

    Pics don't finish loading, radio streams buffer every 7+ secs, and downloads never go complete. What's wrong with my internet? I use comcast cable and a linksys BEFW11S4 router.

    How can I do this?

    I want to move my monitor further away from my computer, is there a device that can make this possible, sort of like how you use a surge to plug in appliances away from the wall. I already have wireless mouse and keyboard, but they are pretty useless right now. I also saw this setup where...

    Playing Unreal Tournament 2004 in college

    Yeh, about that Cable thing, I have it. Only problem is it's 120miles away from my campus and I have yet to figure out how to tap that. Is it even possible to do this (what you call it by the way?). And nobody plays this game besides me, it's a small and boring school. So eating up bandwith...

    Playing Unreal Tournament 2004 in college

    I can understand schools blocking file-sharing ports, but for games (such as my one and only game UT2K4) is it really that damaging? I wouldn't mind if there's something listed in the LAN servers tab but there isn't. Sometimes I can play starting with pings under 60, then after about a...

    Penn State Highlight Reel...

    Well at least you get to go to an equally good (if not better) school. I watched Penn State's bowl game and I must say it was a great game with all those OT. Maybe beats the National Champ game. I also saw something about the ritual they be doing up there, something about camping around the Lion...

    Computer Science!

    Wow, finished reading 95% of everybody's entry here. I'm a freshman majoring in CS. The atmosphere is just like my 101 class. Very intimidating and pessimistic. I am already a pessimistic person so that's not good. But on the other hand, some offer good advice. Like the co-op thing. Finding...
