--- Quote from: SavannahLion on November 18, 2008, 01:32:57 pm ---While I was going to school for my degree in CS I was offered a job to work, of all places, New York at an office located in the WTC. It doesn't take a genius to guess what happened next. Ever since then, I was always six to eight months behind in the graduate curve or 18 months too far ahead. Trying to manipulate my resume to match a job was like trying to stuff a 2008 CPU into a 1985 motherboard.

Then real life grabbed me by the nuts and hasn't let go.

I like to think of it as being socially deficient, but yeah, that's the gist of it.

Incidentally, has anyone here noticed that, in the original Terminator film, the view of the world as seen through the Terminator's eyes shows a scrolling list of 6502 assembler code! So the Terminator's brain appears to be powered by a 2 MHz processor!

If noticing that isn't enough to demonstrate my geek credentials then I don't know what is.

Bender from Futurama reveals he has a 6502 in his head, in the Slurm episode, when he shines an xray flashlight on himself.

Any similarity to hexadecimal?

It's the wussbag base.  I'm doing mine in p90xadecimal.
