:disgust: :laugh:

That is what I was thinking....

Why didn't the engineer take the clothes as well and just eBay it? ;) just kidding. hehe Chalk it up to geekiness.

If he had the bike, why was he walking?

Why did Intel call their new chip "Pentium"? Because when you added 100 to 486, you got 586.657654132167...

What do you get when you cross a Lion with a Tiger?
A line perpendicular to both.

To an optimist, the glass is half full. To a pessimist, the glass is half empty. To an engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

How do you catch a bear?

First you dig a hole, and you fill it full of ashes. Then you surround it with peas. When the bear goes to take a pea, you kick it in the ash-hole.

I think it was one of their early Pentiums that had some kind of computational bug, where if it did decimal calculations, it could give a wrong answer. Wikipedia link




Here's another one I saw awhile ago online, and here it is again, courtesy of this site, with a little addition:
A constant function and e^x are walking on Broadway. Then suddenly the constant function sees a differential operator approaching and runs away. so e to-the x follows him and asks why the hurry.

"Well, you see, there's this diff.operator coming this way, and when we meet, he'll differentiate me and nothing will be left of me...!"

"Ah," says e^x, "he won't bother ME, I'm e to-the x!" and he walks on. Of course he meets the differential operator after a short distance.

e^x : "Hi, I'm e^x"

diff.op. : "Hi, I'm d/dy"

e^x : "Oh snap."

More along those lines:
Q: Did you hear about the new "morning after" pill being developed as a replacement for RU-486???
A: Its called RU-Pentium. It causes the embryo to not divide correctly.

Q: According to Intel, the Pentium conforms to the IEEE standards 754 and 854 for floating point arithmetic. If you fly in aircraft designed using a Pentium, what is the correct pronunciation of "IEEE"?
A: Aaaaaaaiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee!

Q: How many Pentium designers does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: 1.99904274017, but that's close enough for non-technical people.

At Intel, Quality is Job 0.99989960954

What did the mathematician say after Thanksgiving dinner?

sqrt(-1/64)

A biologist, a physicist and a mathematician were sitting in a street cafe watching the crowd. Across the street they saw a man and a woman entering a building. Ten minutes later they reappeared together with a third person.

The biologist said, "They must have bred while they were in there."
The physicist said, "Oh noes! An error in measurement."
The mathematician said, "If one more person enters the building, it will be empty again."
