The totally off-topic thread

[oz_mark]

111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12345678987654321

Does this bring a production system to its knees?

Not if you are using a Cray Supercomputer!

Didn't notice one of those last time I was in the server room.

I object.

There was rules set out in the early stages of this thread and the discussion in question has not violated any of those rules therefore it is still deemed to be an off-topic discussion belonging in the off-topic thread.

 

[oz_mark]

The problem may be that if we string too many replies together on the same topic, then it becomes a topic, notwithstanding the aformentioned rules, hereinafter referred to as the rules.

You are allowed to string anything together as long as it is off-topic anywhere else on AFF.

Computers are off-topic on AFF therefore belong in this thread which is for off-topic topics not on-topic anywhere else on AFF.

I'll have to think about a rebuttal to this. There was a reason I never beacame a lawyer - takes me too long to think of the rebuttal.

Oz_mark, you live in Perth?

What time does it get dark over there now? Is it around 6:30pm? I am in Perth in a couple of weeks and just trying to organise some golf games with a little sightseeing on the side.

I just think its hillarious that this thread is now on the 23rd page.

The last page or so of this thread has been devoted to how to subtly leave bugs in computer software which may or may not shut down production systems. :roll:

I thought the word was 'sutterly', as in 'sutterly every aeroplane is different'

I had a morning flight the other week ( :shock: ). SO I was not HP affected. I was quite surpirsed that the word actually was sutterly.

Quite subtle really....

I wonder how may plane loads of doughnut carrying passengers it will take to get 10,000 KK's from Sydney to Melbourne? I hope they use domestic flights as the customs agents at the international terminal may not be very impressed.
