  • Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

    I'm gonna have to agree with the food thing not having much of an effect, the cleanliness is where it's at. All sorts of varying foods, and for me, the taste changed just slightly each time, if at all, and never anything disgusting, even after eating junk food, or vegatables.

    Either way, I think how into it the -guy- is an important factor. If you don't like it, or you don't necessarily want to do it(as in, doing it for only her) you won't like it. If you enjoy it, it's gonna be a whole...mind over matter type of thing.

    That's how it worked for me at least, and in my experience with it.

    Thanks to Roguewolf for the sig. :D

      That's interesting and disturbing at the same time of the little tibit you just gave Diesel... and after i just ate *looks for antiacids*

        I hope when I pop back in tomorrow we are not still talking about this.

          I can't find a solid bit of data one way or the other, but Chocolate does contain phenylethylamine, which is responsible for the feelings I mentioned. However, most phenylethylamine is metabolized long before it reaches the brain in any significant amount.

            Anyone ever find most math taugh in high schools and colleges are a bit under use in real life applications? >.> *points at his math class using 6 trigometric functions* <.<

              You do know that the original reason for High School and College was not to prepare you for a menial job, but for University where the whole idea is to expand your horizons.

              If you're High School/College math classes are teaching nothing but 'practical' math then you're either -

              a) in the lowest of the low math classes
              b) doing it wrong
              I use a Mac because I'm just better than you are.

                I have to use TAN, COS, SIn for my work as an architect, we have to work out angles of roofs, when we only have cetain data, also using that and linear calculation methods for surveys. as much as I hated maths at school, I still ahev to use it alot in my industry, we don't just draw you know

                  Meh, same stories the teachers/profs say. Hell they even admit that we're not likely to use it for our jobs. <.<;
                  Uhg, being in one of the top math courses for the school isn't my idea of fun nor do I believe I scored high enough like that on the entry exams...
                  Yet here I am ~_~
                  Going stir crazy figuring out radians and degrees on paper and figuring out the calculator equavilants. >.> <.< >_<

                  Omg, just 15 mins before i posted that, my prof stated that same reason/application...

                    Well, if you're in college and you don't need that course for your degree, then don't take it. Get your credits elsewhere.

                    If you're in HS, then you don't really have as much control over your schedule.

                      Well, GSP, Game Simulation and Programming kinda needs math <.< >.> and we haven't exactly had any of the major courses that focuses on being a developement team and such, and only made like, 5 mini games first semester, and this on so far is nothing but a condensed math and this logic circuit thingy... idk.

                        Well, you'll use what you're learning now eventually, so you may as well get through it.

                          Games use a ton of trig. 3D rendering obviously, but even if you're just cloning asteroids you'd be hard pressed not to use it. An understanding of logic circuits overlaps in pretty critical areas with programming as well.

                            Yeah, i figured when i looked at the dat files in metaseq XD
                            Though <.<; its a new major program for Devry and i think its 1-2 years old at the campus location i'm at @_@; so its a bit bumpy, espically for the first students who enrolled into it when it came out. Now its like the majority of the people there are nothing but GSP majors o_O;

                              Yeah hes right for a change

                              We also deal with alot of physics, bending moments, mass (Newtons etc.) priciples of mechanics, U-value (resistances to ehat of materials) etc and general material science. The first 2 years at university doing material, environmental, construction and mechanics sciences felt like i was on a science degree. but I use it all every day. don';t forget with gaming you are like us having to visualise in 3D with your x,y,z planes.

                                Heh, picturing it in my head in wireframes easy, just calculation and making it isn't as much when it has to be on paper with equations.
