This is the official geeks' thread, all geeky/nerdy jokes about math, physics, computers, internet etc goes here. Keep it as geeky as possible.
Thank you
Some geeky joke for UNIX fans/users out there. Marwen.
Sysadmin (n): The untrained being underpaid for doing the impossible with the obsolete.
Windows95 is a 32-bit extension to a 16-bit shell of an 8-bit OS originally written for a 4-bit microprocessor by a 2-bit company that can't stand 1-bit of competition.
I've seen Sun monitors on fire off the side of the multimedia lab. I've seen NTU lights glitter in the dark near the Mail Gate. All these things will be lost in time, like the root partition last week. Time to die...
You know you're a Unix guy when your dreams start with #!/bin/sh.
I came, I saw, I deleted all your files.
grep...grep...grep...(frog with UNIX stuck in it's throat)
Surely the 4 sysadmins of the apocalypse should be: edquota, rm -rf, kill -9, and shutdown.
Q. What's the difference between Batman and Bill Gates?
A. When Batman fought the Penguin, he won.
Behind every great computer sits a skinny little geek.

Sun bug report (#4102680): "Workaround: don't pound on the mouse like a wild monkey."
"SPARC" is "CRAPS" backwards
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world
Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
IRC is just multiplayer notepad.
Although the Buddhists will tell you that desire is the root of suffering,
my personal experience leads me to point the finger at system administration.
You can have my Unix system when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.
Every bit is sacred, Every bit is right.
If a bit is wasted, I can't sleep at night.
Every bit is gorgeous, Every bit is free.
Admire the shape it forges, In hex and BCD!
I'm gonna train my children to say sudo instead of please

Q: What does the zero say to the the eight?
A: Nice belt!
"What is Pi?"
A mathematician: "Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter."
A computer programmer: "Pi is 3.141592653589 in double precision."
A physicist: "Pi is 3.14159 plus or minus 0.000005."
An engineer: "Pi is about 22/7."
A nutritionist: "Pie is a healthy and delicious dessert!"
What about humanities geekery (history, philosophy, literature, etc.)?
I do not much like to take the tone of a moralist. But the danger of the baobabs is so little understood, and such considerable risks would be run by anyone who might get lost on an asteroid, that for once I am breaking through my reserve. "Children," I say plainly, "watch out for the baobabs!"
I dont believe the word 'geeky' should be used here, physics, math, computers, internet are all nerdy subjects not 'fun' subjects.
except maybe for the 'internet'.. The thread should be titled 'Not so Geeky official thread'..or 'Official nerds only thread'.
That way people will know whether they should click the thread or not.

I could never understand the certain 'mundane' nerdy jokes posted on the thread. To mention also the word nerd suits this thread best.
However, you may Continue..
oh and just noticed this thread was created in some time in 2010, i thought it was created today.
peace

Okay guys here is the most mind boggling question you will ever face:
there is a student at a shoe store and he really likes these pair of shoes, however, the price tag is $97.00 . The student is completely broke and so ask 2 of his friend to loan him 50 dollars each so as to have a total of $100.00 .
He now purchases the pair of shoes for $97.00 dollars and so has 3 dollars remaining all in loonies (1 dollar coins). So as to be fair to the 2 students who loaned him money, he decides to give them 1 dollar each and keep the third dollar to him self as he cannot split it.
So, now the lenders have got 1 dollar back so they are both owed 49 dollars for a total of 98 dollars, Plus the one dollar that the shoe purchaser still has so that equals a total of 99 dollars (49+49+1) ....
the question is : What happened to the other dollar? ie. there should be 100
the one dollar that the shoe purchaser still has should not be added to the debt, it should be subtracted from the 98 to attain the price of the shoes,
so he ultimately borrowed 98, spent 97 on the shoes, has 1 remaining.
break down:
after repayment of the 2 dollars change,
friend 1 gave 49,
friend 2 gave 49,
he had 98, spent 97, and still has 1.
had to puzzle over it like a dimwit for quite a while though!
^^haha yeah, this really makes a bold statement as to how our minds have become so dull with the increase of standardized education..
it really kills our creativity and our critical thinking...we make things more complex than they need to be..

A guy gets on a bus and starts threatening everybody: "I'll integrate you! I'll differentiate you!!!" So everybody gets scared and runs away. Only one person stays. The guy comes up to him and says: "Aren't you scared, I'll integrate you, I'll differentiate you!!!" And the other guy says; "No, I am not scared, I am e^x."
