The TPU UK Clubhouse

scaminatrix · Apr 9, 2011

I like to join in the forums and helping fixing people's rigs. It's what I'm best at, because it's all I've been doing for the last few years: fixing dead ones!! Got quite a few TPU fixes under my belt :pimp:

And, I've seen a lot of threads on other forums go unanswered, it's nice to see the opposite here.
And the wealth of information here (I hate having to leave TPU to find things out!!),
and the very talented coders that reside here,
an admin that actually gets properly involved in the shiznit,
and I believe most of the mods are over 30? Not just a bunch of kids running things like a playground.

I like to Join forums and troll noobs and people that like stating the obvious.

Im currently in training on how to troll grama nazis but they are still way ahead of me. The only way to troll a grama nazi is to write it in the form of a wrap, that way nothing makes sense so they dont have any way to counter it. but its hard because a rap is only a rap if i can rap, add beats upload it to youtube, and by the time i finish producing my rap attack everyones already forgotten what the topic is about

Grammar Nazis fight for the betterment of the written word. Plus I get enjoyment out of people getting incredibly pissed off when others try to help them from looking stupid.

I've been learning how to fish out trolls:

Using CPU with no thermal paste? Blatant troll IMO.

I Use MARMITE. Thermal paste of champions

scaminatrix · Apr 9, 2011

you know if you whip Marmite, it goes white? It's true, I've done it before. Put a tiny bit in a dish and keep whipping it (with a spoon or fork, not a whip

) for ages. I wonder if it affects the taste? I don't like the stuff do I'll refrain from trying!

I like to be captain obvious in the forums, because a lot of times people will miss the most obvious solution and proceed straight to fancy reasoning. Occam's Razor ftw! Also, to try to make tatty give up his lovely daughters

Yep, that's true, the obvious is so easily missed sometimes. I'm a self-taught theorist so most of my stuff is outside the box/workarounds; I'm rarely right but I get there sometimes lol

Plugging a couple of credentials there like a sell-out, but oh well...

I've done that a lot of times to test if a CPU/mobo works properly without the hassle of having to apply/clean TIM. You can definitely tell the increase in temps though, specially under load.

Anyone looking for headphones right now, its a good time to buy a pair now.

HMV are doing a pretty crazy sale. 50%+ off.

Hmmm.... I might have to slightly retract my statement about his blatant troll-ness; maybe it's MohawkAngel (recently banned) back for a second cometh!

Bo$$ · Apr 9, 2011

why did he get banned?

scaminatrix · Apr 9, 2011

Dunno, probably doing his usual.
Looking at his latest posts, I deduce he was arguing with a mod. And you know TPU, arguing with a mod won't get you banned in itself, you have to argue proper.

Just downloaded me some C4 and M2 Solomon papers. Good'ol internet.

Fourstaff · Apr 9, 2011

Ah, study. I need to do that soon :eek:

razaron · Apr 9, 2011

I only downloaded them. I'm probably not revising till Monday.

got mine already printed, do yourself a favor and do the solomon worksheets, that is the shit for C4 integration

what board are you doing for maths?

razaron · Apr 9, 2011

Edexcel. I'm finding C4 easy (along with M2) but I make stupid mistakes. Case in point I failed to realise 1/cos^2(2x) is the same as sec^2(2x) and in mechaincs I made an isoceles triangle.
Brilliant.

Bo$$ · Apr 9, 2011

ahh thats good man, i dont find it difficult i just need practise

I suffer the most in M3, the C-series is easy to Asians (we cover most of the C syllabus in O'level Additional maths due to Spartan education). M3 requires a bit more brains (to me, at least). I scored the lowest in Statistics though, and you might ask wtf was I thinking when I applied to study Maths and Stats in uni.

If you guys have any problems with your maths, feel free to PM me, I will give it a try

kurosagi01 · Apr 9, 2011

You and your maths lol.
Well if i do well my 1st year for As i think i will do 2 different application for uni,one for something to do with computing/IT and other be something related to Law.
