Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
Now I wonder if I can route VGA through unusual items. Cutlery, the railing on a staircase, swords, something like that. As long as I can find six pieces of metal of roughly equal length, it should work.
Q: So do you have any hobbies?
A: Well lately I've really gotten interested in routing VGA through unusual items!
Q: Ooooh, that's so hot right now
There are worse hobbies. There's also no shortage of items to try.
Ideas:
Well... I don't think it would be the weirdest thing I've done with my free time. Would probably barely rank in the top three.
I'm listening.
Let's see:
That's just what I comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure if I spend some time thinking or digging around old hard drives, I can find more.
I've been working on developing a CPU architecture based around my own variant of lisp called "dollhouse lisp" the big twist is that DHlisp executes code by reducing a syntax tree, so all code is destroyed once it's been executed. It's a very elegant solution, but a very difficult implementation. (Especially when it comes to loops and garbage collection.)
Jumping Cubes is the kind of game that works really well on a PC and has super simple rules but is absolute hell in real life.
That game on the Risk board was fun, though. IIRC North America in particular tended to have those terrible chain reactions that just kept going and going.
I remember that Australia was the exact opposite. It has a single outside connection and once it reaches a stable state, it stays there. Every impulse that goes in will come out again and leave the inside unchanged.
This is excellent. This reminds me of when I couldn't get any hard requirements or specs for a back end tool that I was tasked with making, so to spite everyone, and maybe myself, I wrote it in brainfuck. It was rock solid for years, and then I left due to management actively preventing me from furthering my career. I still wonder how long that process kept being used before someone had to look into the source to make changes.
So... how much fabric is in these chain-mail bikinis, exactly?
Because without any, they're basically going to be see-through, right? Not that I would complain.
No fabric at all, just metal rings and a bit of string. They are far from see-through though because they are pretty dense. If you’re close enough you can see a bit of… anatomy… but it’s more on the side of a coarsly knit sweater than transparent fabric.
I figured you'd want some fabric in those sensitive areas
If all the loops are properly closed, chainmail is actually quite comfortable.
Through your body with nippleclamps?
I'd need a couple more volunteers to make sure all signals have the same delay.
Ugh... Fine... Let's get started.
I once routed a SCART signal into cinch with an assortment of different paperclips. Worked perfectly fine
Probably was more robust than an actual SCART cable too!
Don't forget to try bananas
I think it was in Die Hard where there was a scene of the protagonist short-cruiting an alarm system with the help of flower pot water to help extend some cables?
