GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS]

Geek of Computer Science.

Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-]

My age is 25-29.

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C++(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Computers are a large part of my existence. When I get up in the morning, the first thing I do is log myself in. I play games or mud on weekends, but still manage to stay off of academic probation.", to: "You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks."

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL++]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. I've get the entire admin ticked off at me because I am always using all of the CPU time and trying to run programs that I don't have access to. I'm going to try cracking /etc/passwd next week, just don't tell anyone.

GEEK UNIX CODE [US++]

I use SunOS/Solaris exclusively. I've get the entire admin ticked off at me because I am always using all of the CPU time and trying to run programs that I don't have access to. I'm going to try cracking /etc/passwd next week, just don't tell anyone.

GEEK PERL CODE [P+]

I know of perl. I like perl. I just haven't learned much perl, but it is on my agenda.

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L+++]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively on my system. I monitor comp.os.linux.* and even answer questions sometimes.

I sent my question to the wrong group and got flamed.

GEEK KIBO CODE [K-]

I don't know who Kibo is.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w--]

MS Windows is a joke operating system. Hell, it's not even an operating system. NT is Not Tough enough for me either. 95 is how may times it will crash an hour.

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O-]

Tried it, didn't like it.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M-]

Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

GEEK VMS CODE [V-]

Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [PS+(++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "My whole concept of liberalism is that nobody has the right to tell anybody else what to do, on either side of the political fence. If you don't like it, turn the bloody channel.", to: "I give to liberal causes. I march for gay rights. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU. Keep abortion safe and legal."

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE-]

It's ok to increase government spending, so we can help more poor people. Tax the rich! Cut the defense budget!

I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal.

I've used it, but stopped long ago.

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t(-)]

Babylon 5 certainly presents a fresh perspective in the Sci-Fi universe. I watch it weekly.

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Ho hum. Just another Fox show.", to: "I've Converted my family and watch the show when I remember. It's really kinda fun."

Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [!tv]

I do not own a television.

I enjoy reading, but don't get the time very often. But someday I'd like to say: "I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet."

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+]

I read Dilbert daily, often understanding it.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D++(---)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I've played the shareware version and bought the real one and I'm actually pretty good at the game. I occasionally download PWAD files and play them too.", to: "To hell with Doom, I miss Zork."
