here's another excellent one. well worth your wasted time. http://wimp.com

Physics, chemistry, molecular biology, or some combination thereof. I've been accelerating in these areas as much as I can in high school, but the high school system makes that really hard. You can't even get a decent introductory calculus-physics course at the local community college. :/ So I...

hardly exists anymore? so, people were compassionate in the past and now they aren't? I think you guys are honestly pretty misinformed on human nature. People are frequently selfish and vile. But they are also frequently compassionate. How can that be missed?

In all seriousness (i.e. unlike my last post) I think compassion is a valid and real motivation. Maybe some of you guys don't care about many other people but I do think I fundamentally care about a lot of people I know.

I was rude and didn't welcome you. Welcome! You sound interesting.

It's definitely just you.

I have not used Edubuntu myself, but cryptonia's first paragraph is accurate from what I've read. Software install is supposed to be even easier than that - using Ubuntu Software Manager, theoretically you wouldn't even need to use the command-line. Ha. Hahahaha.

Thank you.

:icon_starwars: Ho! Ha ha! Guard! Turn! Parry! Dodge! Spin! Ha! Thrust!

I would be my own best friend. But I think neither of us would be very good at taking the initiative to keep up the relationship. :slashnew:

Haha. A community house? I hadn't heard of those. It's non-traditional, so I disapprove. <stern glare/> I expect I'll be hitting the road out of here in 10 months or so for college, unless I enroll at the UW, which isn't that likely.

A good point. However, within the context of this language (and culture!), it is accepted that males are referred to with masculine pronouns, and females are referred to with feminine pronouns. I think they're useful, because they provide information. Information is good, or something. Well...

Hope you get the job! Where are you from?

I agree. In America, there is a strong trend towards moving individual responsibility to government/authority responsibility, and this extends to a growing popular belief that bullies should be dealt no violence and the solution is always tell a teacher immediately.

I've turned the time delay on all the Compiz effects I use down to nothing or almost nothing. You can do that FYI.

I think that if a person is not comfortable with his sex, then it is not the language's problem, but his own. I understand the popular distinction between sex and gender, and I have heard of the intersexual phenomenon. However I don't believe that there exists a part of sex that may be...

I was too lazy to take the career-test test, so I just went with my mypersonality results. Though I didn't think their test was that great. Just because I am considerate of others' emotions, doesn't make me less a T type. Or does it? Of course, this exercise makes no sense considering the...

Actually rubberducky broke the chain. How obvious can it be guys! I thought we were pattern-recognizers! a(n) = (n - 1)^2 for post number n and number of elephants a. Also flow: Wow, I read your post, having truly forgotten the guys actual name. When you said "Subtotal," I read "Subotai". He's...

I think sex is the most fundamental characteristic of anyone. Second, perhaps, to one's humanity. I do support traditional pronoun use, and think very little of sie and similar contrivances. I don't understand why someone would want to not be referred to by the pronoun appropriate to their sex.

Is there a crude online Flash version of Diplomacy or something? Which I can learn on?

This is like me. Perhaps not the physical fights bit, but this is in my nature. And that's also me. I r pally. :paladin:

would you guys recommend more http://similarminds.com/jung.html or http://www.mypersonality.info/personality-types

oh hi. :elephant::elephant::elephant: :elephant::elephant::elephant: :elephant::elephant::elephant:

I want to play but I don't know how. :/

I'm not sure how serious you are. Why are you saying this?

I run into this kind of idea a lot, that 'integrity' and 'principles' are all well and good, but at the end of the day sometimes you've just got to do XYZ. I think this is semantically inappropriate and unnecessary. Ack I have to leave on short notice, I'll continue this post laterz. :phear...

True, AI. I guess I thought something different might be recommended to someone who had not listened to electronica before, than among folks who listen to it frequently.

Thanks cheese! woo for internet forums

people on this forum really need to stop linking to tv tropes

That's pretty much me right there. But only when it's a seriously important decision. If it's not important enough, I might not put out the effort. I'll prefer to postpone the decision far off. For some small decisions, I will actually use a random number generator. :D If people ask me, I say...

I don't listen to electronica. You guys should recommend some music to me! Preferably a URL I can click on which involves autoplay, so I don't have to work very hard. :cool: I like jazz, blues, swing, soul, 60s-80s pop, 60s-80s rock, latin, classical, chant. I don't know if that would help...

I have always wanted to take a course where there's me and 6-7 other INTPs. I don't even care what the subject is, that'd be freaking awesome.

it would be nice if there was a standardized plugin interface. For example, I want to be able to move my mouse to the top-right corner and have that toggle 'show desktop.' But I can't do that, because the keymappings setup isn't really standardized. The plugin author determines whether a...

Yay! Another one. (Even us INTPs usually turn a blind eye to comma splices as long as they're on the webotubes.)

One of the worst offences of the public school system in America is how they delay reading to age 6 at the very earliest. I was reading by age 4. Schools should teach reading as the priority, ASAP in the early years. Of course, the public schools shouldn't even have the kids when they're that...

I don't think I'm especially secretive. I think I want others to know more about me. Maybe not everyone, but still.

I don't think that's a great way of putting it. Integrity comes from yourself, it is not something that comes from society, like we would suppose a privilege to be. You ask whether it is ever justified to lapse in integrity? No, it's not. Integrity is an broader word than you guys seem to be...

Daaaang, RT. How do you think you can tell?

daBlob++;

That's pretty exciting for me, since I could pretty much say the exact first paragraph you said above, except replace "Openbox" with "GNOME", and replace "fvwm" with "Openbox." So basically, there's something even more extreme than Openbox? Sign me up! :D Do you think tiling window managers are...

I don't get the modern attraction to the goth ideal. It really turns me off. :slashnew:

Ogion: What's your preferred window manager?

Well, what is most important in my opinion is that you not give up in your attempts to understand. :elephant:

The standardized definitions: 1 kB = 1000 B 1 MB = 1000 kB = 1000000 B etc. 1 KiB = 1024 B 1 MiB = 1024 KiB = 1048576 B etc.

I still disagree that specifying an object of the love counts as a condition. Not sure how to explain it though. :/ I should just stop talking.

Nowhere near that introverted. :P I will contribute this, though

it would appear the test accidentally typed "J versus P" when they really meant "P versus J." For the results section. Oh well.

I'll worry about eating healthy once I've figured out eating. It's kind of a problem. Thing is, I'm so lazy when it comes to getting food, PLUS I get really distracted and don't eat food once it's in front of me. I eat most meals either at school, where I have friends to talk to, or at home...

reyo: Heh, I can appreciate your sentiment there re church matters.
