Im sorry, i know intro posts are annoying sometimes, but i just wanted to say hi... I am 23 years old and I've always been fascinated and felt a thirst for knowledge about physics and such... and to find this forum is awsome! i am/was not a good student and far from being smart or anything, and have no experience or actual studies beyond my own reading in any of the fields, i just love the subjects...
anyways, Hi, and thanks for the great page and subjects

I never noticed those where so close to each other !

Once I typed "rm myfile" and wanting to hit return, I accidently hit "* return" :cry: :mad:

The worse of all is that, being young, I had "rm" aliased to "rm -rf". Since then, I aliased it to "rm -i"...

And not to "sudo nohup rm -Rf /!*" :devil:

Welcome, Kirk. Ready for fun? That's the name of the game in GD.

But seriously... your favorite fish? You'd better pick one or Evo will pick it FOR you and - trust me - you won't like HER favorite! :smile:
