Root Access

I thought it was elementary to me, but I started to do some exercises and came up some definitions I have sort of difficulty to distinguish. In parentheses are my questions. $\dfrac {x}{0}$ is Impossible ( If it's impossible it can't have neither infinite solutions or even one. Nevertheless, ...

So all this time with math, I hope your getting an A, because you would fail most advance math classes by saying "let me just ignored this rule"

keeps you stuck on one concept for more time than most can think on a concept without getting distracted

it stops you from progressing further into the concept when you already understand the current material

Ramhound

anyways

Good luck remembering Calculus 1 theorems with that attitude.

var firstName

you don't understand how limited of an enrichment high school homework gives you

Staying on one basic topic for more than a week is just a travesty.

like, fucking trig took my class 3 weeks

I was playing with circles, learning new concepts after the 2nd day

remember

Ben N

There's an entire book on trig a few feet away from me

var firstName

this is like, geometry trig

real simple shit

not even Algebra II

Hi my name is NotBob and I tried to parse HTML with regex.

var firstName

how did the quotient of 0division thing become a postulate?

Ben N

11:19 PM

Interestingly enough, I have an idea for a fix for !!stat that involves parsing HTML with regex

var firstName

How's that?

!!stat

It seemed so harmless in the beginning. Just wrapping <img> tags in anchors and adding a class to it.

Little did I know what I was getting myself into. Madness. MADNESS, I TELL YA!

Honestly thinking about doing an april fools day joke where I answer every question possible with "Stir the tuna" and a gif of jackie chan

That sounds like a way to get auto-answer-banned

little bit

what if it's a different gif every time?

Oh, I was thinking of the VLQ flags

Very Low Quality. Indicates that the content should be removed immediately, possibly along with its poster

A: Multiple routers on the same network over coax

Before you begin reading my answer, please note that my understanding is that you wish to use these routers as independent modems broadcasting on the same SSID with the same WEP/WPA(2) key, and same settings. Personally, I would take it for a test run and see how it performs (seeing that you alr...

Ben N

I'm afraid I haven't done much with coax stuff :/

I'm saying, general post quality

this is my first in-depth post of SE. Ever.

Ben N

11:36 PM

It seems good. In the nitpick department, we don't use "Tl;dr" very much - "summary" is more professional

var firstName

ah

I thought it was more casual and welcoming

will refrain from it in the future

Ben N

What you have isn't bad at all, but posts are the best when they're professionally written

@BenN Allow me to disagree

A: RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags

You can't parse [X]HTML with regex. Because HTML can't be parsed by regex. Regex is not a tool that can be used to correctly parse HTML. As I have answered in HTML-and-regex questions here so many times before, the use of regex will not allow you to consume HTML. Regular expressions are a tool th...

Journeyman Geek

I'm in the middle and suggest it depends on the question

Ben N

@ThatBrazilianHeadlessHorse With my idea of regex parsing, or the acceptance of "tl;dr"? I'm not super enthusiastic about having casual terms in answers, but it's not terribad

> posts are the best when they're professionally written

Good posts are concise, thorough, technically correct, clearly explained, that I agree.

Ben N

Ah, that makes sense

That Brazilian Headless Horse

They don't have to be serious and bureaucratic, however.

But yeah, it depends a lot on the question

Ben N

Yep, I agree with you

Yup

A: Why BitTorrent uploads simultaneously?

Well, why not? Torrents have no central server - the data is not produced by magic bunny rabbits or the toothfairy - bitorrent is a peer to peer networking system - basically your computer goes "say old chap, would you happen to have chunk 1234? " and another computer goes "sure, old chap, I have...

I posted this one when I was sick and loopy on flu meds. And have no recollection of actually posting that answer

Anyway, I'm off to watch Steven Universe. And eat dinner. And write blog posts. And sleep somewhere between it all.

I am off to cry

Amazon oversold my pre-order lol

Journeyman Geek

NMS?

That Brazilian Headless Horse

Ramhound

I wouldn't pre-order NMS if you paid me a million dollars

No, WOW: Legion CE

I am taking off thurs and fri too

not because of the game

because its just been crazy at work

How does one oversell a digital copy of a game? No, scratch that: how does one makes a pre-sale of a digital game? Isn't the sole purpose of a preorder to secure a copy of a limited amount of a product?

Ben N

Lock in the price?

I've never actually preordered a game so I don't know with certainty

Journeyman Geek

11:56 PM

I tend to wait for games to get released, and more often wait for the GOTY + steam sales

Ramhound

I typically only pre-order games a few day sbefore

and only because I get 20% off pre-release games on amazon

In this game the game was a physical copy of the CE

Amazon didn't receive enough copies

Why they didn't doesn't matter, in the end, they sold to many

They also didn't notify me

I had to ask....

I still hold out hope because "Arriving tomorrow by 8pm" has not been updated

I hope this CR didn't know the tools or something
