My stock trading antics - Practice Mode

Disclaimers: I'm still learning. I can be wrong. This is not financial or legal advice, just me explaining what I've learned thus far. YMMV, but I'm not responsible for anything this knowledge is used for. All numbers are arbitrary, but somewhat realistic examples. It's confusing. I know. Tis life. I tried my best to explain it accurately. Concise is not something I do unless forced. So I've been learning stock trading basics for a while (terms, patterns, concepts, etc.), and I've been practi

Ubuntu Install: 17 Hours of Pain

Let's be honest: if it takes more than 3 hours to install an OS, a general consumer is going to give up. I almost did after 17 hours of attempting to put Ubuntu 14.04 onto my school desktop. The first 3 were my fault for not verifying the hash of the ISO I downloaded to ensure I got a perfect image. Admittedly, I got the OS installed, but everything was broken. It erased the windows 7 installation and went on fine, but everything from the get go was wrong once I got in. So, I tried again when I

The culmination of 1 year of study...

So as many of you know, tomorrow is my SHSAT exam. This exam is used to determine if I get into one of 8 specialized high schools in the city (though I'm only applying to 2 of them). I have studied over a year for this, and this test has brought to me joy, sorrow, pain, anger, angry parental rants, and LOTS AND LOTS of stress. Someday it will be all worth it. If I pass, good for me. If I fail, it will be quite possibly the end of the world as I know it. I feel prepared enough to walk into this

Where We're At With Intel Right Now

Intel's integrated graphics solutions spawned out of a simple need from the business/corporate world: to have enough graphics power to host a desktop, surf the internet, and write up documents/view presentations. This was a simple task, and Intel found it had extra unused die space which could be utilized for it, but the graphics engineering team was never given more than what was deemed "unused space." This is why the power of the integrated graphics processor has been weak, but there are more

Getting that wood.

Ok so a week or two back I stumbled upon some sweet looking in desk pc's. Now, I really enjoying building both computers and things like desks so I thought why not? I've been meaning to do a new build and haven't been able to get to it, so this is going to be the new project. Finally yesterday I was able to head down to Lowes to pick up the materials. I decided to go with 3/4 inch MDF due to its strength and it's ease of use. I also bought a 18 x 24 piece of acrylic for the window. So now here's

Why the concept of "Zero fucks given" is false.

You hear it a lot, especially in threads related to Apple news and things associated with non-techies, but is it true? Well, you can pretty much exclude someone that posts a reply to a topic saying "I give 0 fucks" from the group "Gives 0 fucks" since that person clearly gave enough fucks to actually post a reply. Then there are the ones that only read the thread but don't post a reply, those aren't included in the group either, they gave enough fucks to spend their time reading the thread. And

Sigh.. "Just pick one".. A reply that pisses me off on a regular basis

So yeah.. Some douche just viewed my profile on another site that i check sometimes. And saw that i had "Bi" added as my sexualtiy on the page.. Yes it's a damn dating site.. This douchecanoue just left a one sentence message... "Bisexuality is not actually a thing you greedy fuck".......................................... And i got no reply to my counter argument.

Case survey 14/07/2014

So if you may or may not know of whether you read blogs, I'm currently now designing two upcoming cases which'll probably be built & released around next year 2015 during mid-summer or the autumn period. The first case will not be for sale but if I feel that there is a audience that deems worthy I may put it into to-order batch produce, the second case will be purchasable from my upcoming website to order/pre-order if I can produce enough stock & based on a lot more of key manufac

Initial Report

I was lucky enough to find an I7 4980HQ selling for $400 through Amazon, and I found a dirt cheap $50 reference board to fit it. I also happen to not need my school desktop at the moment and thought I'd try to see how far I could push a mobile CPU when it's being cooled by something capable like my Hyper 212 Evo with some Gelid Extreme. It turns out mounting the cooler on Intel's reference board is, ah, not possible (not really surprised. So, me being me, I propped up the cooler, ran twine throu

Gallup Internship: Day 2

Hello forum, This is my second entry into this blog about my experiences at Gallup. What happened: Day 2, we continued to practice general coding. We also learning about creating our own blocks in scratch. This would be equivalent to defining one's own block of code in Java. We integrated lists and variables into the project we did. We also learned about encryption and the Cesar cipher. We did a project that encrypted a word by shifting its letter 3 letters down in the alphabet. At the end we

Gallup Internship: Day 1

Hello Forum, This is my first entry for this blog. This entry will be describing what I did on day 1. What happened: During the first day, we started off in scratch(The online program developed to practice coding). We all made very simple projects, some games. We then continued on to learn about variables and lists. We learned how they function together and separately. After we have finished with the scratch we then talked about the ESF or Entrepreneurial strengths finder. We also had pizza an
