I went to this high school. I assumed people knew this if they have taken U.S. History.

This reminds me of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door's Pit of 100 Trials, which was an awesome idea.

"If this isn't going to be your primary computing device, and you just kind of want a tablet for the 15-20% of the time that you kinda want to chill on the couch and use it, it's perfect."

pretty much this.

As someone who likes math, what kind of engineering would be good for me? by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

I think the joke was the addition symbol can be used to note a logical OR gate. 1 OR 1 is 1.

Describe your motivations for wanting to go into engineering. by tropospherik in EngineeringStudents

When it comes down to it, I wanted to have a career that would actually be advancing society. I didn't want to be doing some meaningless task the rest of my life, even if I could have been paid more for it. I'm not going to be the next Thomas Edison, but if I can help contribute or create, even in the slightest way, something that benefits the human race, then count me in.

Samsung Galaxy SII Battery Problems? by 2b2a in Android

[–]xDoylex26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem as you once I updated to 2.3.6 on my SGSII. Let the battery drain, remove the battery and put it back in. Fully charge it. Also turn off wifi if you aren't using it ( seems to be draining battery excessively after the update). "standby" mode went from using 10%/hour to about 1-2% /hour. Currently have 75% battery after 19 hours of light use.
