Custom T-Shirts with Wikipedia, Intel, Star Trek & OpenGL

The discussion revolves around the idea of wearing custom-pressed T-shirts featuring logos from Wikipedia, Intel, Star Trek, and OpenGL. The shirts would primarily be white, with the Klingon shirt in brown or grey. Participants acknowledge that while wearing such shirts would be considered geeky, it is viewed positively. The conversation also delves into the choice of the Intel logo, highlighting the speaker's familiarity and support for Intel's processors over the years, despite the existence of many other IC manufacturers. The shirts are seen as a way to express one's identity as a computer geek or nerd, which is embraced rather than shunned. Additionally, there is a brief tangent discussing a photo that seems to lack coherence in its mathematical representation, but this does not detract from the main topic of the T-shirts.

If I bought a bunch of custom pressed T-shirts that had the Wikipedia logo, Intel logo, Star Trek Klingon insignia, and OpenGL logo on them? All of the shirts base color would be white except for the Klingon shirt which would probably be brown or grey.

Just curious...

Well, yes, of course it would be geeky, but not in a bad way.

Out of curiosity, why the Intel logo? They make IC's for personal computers, but there are hundreds of IC makers in hundreds of different markers. What makes Intel special?

I have used Intel's technology (particularly processors) a lot over the years, and have grown accustomed to it. I'm a natural supporter. Of course, like you said, there are plenty of IC companies to choose from, so I'm not particularly attached to any particular one.
 
If you have to ask, the answer is evident.
 
Those T-shirts would label you as a computer geek, which would be bad.

These would label you as a nerd, which would be good.

(If you have good hair, you can get away with wearing anything.)

Is it just me, or does that last pic not make much sense. I get that it's supposed to be Seniors 2009, but the integral lacks a differential, and the upper limit of infinity doesn't fit in at all. Plus, the obscuring the 2009 into a limit is sort of pointless considering they put 2009 right in the limit!

And if not, you can post your picture on PF. :eek:
Combed your hair with a helicopter?
