  1. I personally never dismiss music by the category. I make up my mind on a per song, per artist basis. So I don't hate "rabiz" music... some of them do appeal to me like how Harut Pamboukjian would appeal to me. It's hard to say for me exactly what makes a song "appealing" or "interesting" ... it's like asking what makes a "painting" art as opposed to junk. I like a wide variety of music. But I cannot say if a song is a heavy metal rock song that I will like it just becuase I like other heavy metal songs. Welcome to the board by the way.
  2. Vahe I answered you and I PMed you. This wasn't the first time you did it and please don't do it again. "don't smoke crack" as a public announcement although may be a great message doesn't belong in every thread after every hagarag post. Come on!!!!
  3. Juggs, nice but you are killing poor modem users! May want to keep most of those as links or make them as thumbnails that link to bigger pics (I'm sure you've seen how I do it).
  4. Kavorkin didn't you say you are married? Sasun is not like that .. he is a decent guy and very spiritual
  5. Sorry guys I deleted Hagarag's reply accidentally when trying to remove Vahe G.'s reply. I'm sending him a message.
  6. Very interesting! Out of curiosity, what kind of name did he have? By the way, I have to give you credit ... that whole "I'll call IBM and find out" is a very creative!!! LMAO. I guess you have to come up with things like that in the complaint department.

    Impressions Of The Day

    Fax it over. I'll have it for you.
  8. oh man some people (esp bruin???) are on a mission to make me look like a tomato tonight? But I have to say the look on a certain someone's face when she saw my "GPS" for the first time was ABSOLUTELY priceless!!!! And I do mean it About the current/former colleagues and their lifestyles ... I hope you understand why I won't comment
  9. Shocked because I wasn't expecting to hear "midterms" from you! But it's nice to hear
  10. HyeAcher, one day you may discover that all things in life are interrelated somehow. You may not see a connection between math and romance but seems to me that for example Thoth and extrahye are starting to figure out what 1+1 equals. As for me, I have always maintained that I am a 1's and 0's guy ... You really want to know the relation between 1's and 0's and love and romance? Think about it ... look at them carefully. See the yin and the yang ... the 0 and 1 ... they do fit perfectly and go together very well as many things in life (if not metaphorically, then just look at the shapes!!!!)

    Your Dream House

    Ok but you have to admit having compressed air hoses throughout the house is pretty damn sweet
  12. hahahha "spray mist"!!!! Hey Juggs, this is for you: (sorry modem users) ... warning contains bad language. Rice Racers

    The Armenian Family

    I agree! So as a "satyric" piece, I do agree it's nicely done. But as far as the truth it represents, it's not so nice.

    The Armenian Family

    It was "nice" 100 years ago. Now's it's time to treat that as Armenian Family History (I hope). And some of it, although may be true today, is VERY sad (like the part where Armenian drunk never gives up his car keys).
  15. Well, any details of what the issue at hand is?

    Impressions Of The Day

    And of course where ever there is a mob of ladies, you'll find Thoth jumping on the bandwagon Sorry Thoth! I couldn't resist but you were in that mob too.

    Wild Winter: Us

    Very interesting ... this should make my first winter in the upper-mid-coast area of the US a memorable one!
  18. http://zr2.cs.ucla.edu/sm/wing.jpg Love that wing!!!!
  19. Ok I would like to officially nominate this post as the best post ever on hyeforum.
  20. All I can say is http://zr2.cs.ucla.edu/Sip/zr2/emb.gif I was minding my business in the math thread and all of a sudden everything goes crazy!!!! And boy do "rumors" spread quickly around here. Ok, I'm going back to the math thread ... hopefully my "reputation" isn't tarnished

    Impressions Of The Day

    Well bruin jan ... thanks As far as Arm3n, he is trying to put that behind us which I think is a very good thing. He is certainly entitled to have his opinions even if we don't agree with them. That thread got too crazy too fast and I think a lot of Arm3n's responces were in the form of "defending" against a mob attack ... So that's why there were no warnings issued to anyone. But in any case ... let's hope for the best from now on
  22. Wow! You two must be getting some pretty interesting "regular" mail
  23. Interesting way to look at it but at a very simple level, I guess that's true. Keep in mind these are transistors that flip on and off. There is no analog circuitry there ... with CMOS, you have 2 transistors an n-mos and a p-mos that switch in series. But in any case, you have thousands and thousands of these transistors charging discharging ... if you increase the frequency, you have a lot of such charge/discharges ... when you increase voltage, the level of charge discharge is higher Just keep in mind that typically only 1 to 0 transitions consume power!!! 0 - 0 transition doesn't need power 1 - 1 transition doesn't need power 0 - 1 doesn't need power but I think I am over simpifying. In any case, if you can create a number system or some special transformation on your computatinos that reduces 1-0 transitions, then you can save a lot of power while computing!!! As an example, in a lot of DSP chips where you deal with a lot of - and + numbers, they use special encoding to represent numbers since -1.0 is usually 1111111 and 0.0 is 0000000 and anytime you go from mathematical -1 to 0 in a computation (usually a lot) you flip a LOT of bits and that's not good.
