I'll give it a shot.  I'm not a regular reader (although I may be starting now),
and I believe I can at least toss out an example.

About 1:00 AM Monday.  It's been a long damn weekend.  I normally operate with
a great deal of angst, and this weekend I've had even more shit piled into my
life.  I feel like I'm about to fade into a black and white image, to be taken
away by a demon jock (Parker Lewis fans will understand).  I'm at the end of
my rope.

Then somebody ties on another few feet of thread so they can shove me down
that much further.

I'm standing on the balcony of my residence hall, bitching about life with
a couple other guys who live there.  One of them has just sort of broken up
with a girl I knew in high school, who I had considered a friend.  I used to
see her, and occasionally talk to her, around campus.  I figured we got along
reasonably well as friends.  The guy who just broke up with her tells me
that she has been avoiding me, because she doesn't want her new Greek friends
to think that she would EVER associate with a fat nerd like me.

Okay, angsters, is this angst?

	Well,  as Xibo knows,  there is a Pizza Hut in Socorro,  and it
is the best pizza place in town.  (Because all the rest suck).  I should
know because I just rented an ugly little metal mobile home just
two blocks away from the Pizza Hut.

than there were two years ago.  Problem is,  many of them actually like
rap music and they only want to go out with ugly hispanic guys.  (Not that
they are all ugly -- but just being a neotenic athelete is ideal for
white guys,  being really ugly is ideal for hispanics) -- I actually got
propositioned twice (once verbally,  once non-verbally) when I was a
freshman,  but my nonexistant sex life is even worse now...  Except for

OH, come on, now.

Men always eat in restaurants alone. Men can do *lots of things* all by
themselves, because they are big boys.  Up until damn recently, women
couldn't go into restaurants for dinner without the waitron stuffing them
way back in a corner (in the middle of traffic by the kitchen door or so
far in back that the waitron doesn't even see her.) Women still can't go to
most bars alone without getting hit on.  Go to a movie? that's iffy. Hell.
I can't even walk alone in my neighborhood at night or even sometimes
during the day.  And this is how it is in most cities.  

Basically, it's far more socially acceptable for men to be able to do
things alone; men at least have that option.

Men look distinguished, businesslike, pondering.  Women look like they
couldn't get any of the other secretaries to go to lunch with them.

Any more about the society stuff, we could move it to soc.women. they'd like
that.

Oh yeah, you should see (and smell) most of the guys who hit on me...trust

do this are really obnoxious.  I find that guys who say this usually have
a fantasy of some friendly, kind, and perhaps even relatively attractive

Wrong on a number of counts.  Men may be the victims of 10% of all rapes
(often anal rape by other men--frequently more than one just as it is
with women).  It's hard to tell the actual numbers because police actually
still laugh at male victims sometimes, and fewer males report it than females
which is already a low percentage.  Also, many rapists kill their victims or
try to, I don't think it's less likely that you'll be killed by a rapist
than a mugger.

Also, if you do survive the mugging and report it to the police, you don't
have to be asked what you were doing walking alone at night anyway, and
why you were wearing something that practically advertises the fact that
you have lots of money.

What a joke.  Say it to yourself a few hundred times: "You may be
ugly, boring, whiny, lazy, worthless pre-roadkill, but I love you
anyway."  See how much better you feel.

Standards are good.  Especially relative standards if you can't live
up to them.  If the people who used to be in your peer group have run
past you, it'd be dishonest and unfair for you to try to change the
rules because of it.  And besides, you're not *so* incredibly stupid
that you'd be able to pull it off.  You'll know you're just fooling
yourself, trying to make yourself feel better, and other people are
laughing at you because *they* still know you're a loser.  Trying to
feel happy because you've achieved *your* goals is all a sick joke
that just won't work.

So find someone in a similar situation and wait a while.  If they
leave you far behind, then you're a loser and you always knew it.  If
they're not, then look at where you've gone.  Nowhere, really, isn't
it?  You've just arrived faster to a place you had no real interest
in getting to anyway.

cheer up.  [Why?  *whap* Goddammit, you're slow!]  Just learning to

Well, you think you have it hard, but what about me?  I have
women hit on me all the time, wherever I go.  I would like to
have a woman for a friend, but all they ever want is sex.  Sex,
sex, sex, all the time sex.

I thought this was bad enough, but I tried talking about this to
some of the girls I was seeing.  I was hoping I might start some
kind of meaningful relationship.  But then I ended up with four
girls who decided they were in love with me, and called all the
time, and sent flowers to me, and got into fights over me.  Jane
wanted me to move in with her, so I'd be there in her arms in the
morning; I'm the only man for her, she said.

But the problems is that the one I REALLY wanted to be close to
is afraid of relationships, and refused to have any kind of
relationship with me on something besides a purely sexual basis.

Wait.  The benchmarks as posted showed the ELC is much faster than
486/33.  You don't need to ramp up to IPX to get "a fast enough
system".  The ELC is $3k school price, 8 Meg, diskless.  (It is a lot
faster than 486/33, don't recall numbers).

We're doing a slightly unfair comparison here.  The ELC has been
shipping for a while now.  The 486/33 is relatively recent.
But that _is_ the bottom line for right now.

How much IO does BRLCAD do?  PCs generally die on all forms of IO

I'd like to attach a Sony worm drive to a Sparc-2 and have some questions:

1. Does the standard SCSI device driver support optical disk drives?
   If so, what steps are necessary to configure the drive? If not,
   and writing a device driver is necessary....

2. There is a sample driver in the book "Writing SBus Device Drivers",
   (Appendix G).  Is this the best place to start if a device driver
   is needed? If so, is there a machine readable copy of this sample 
   code available? If not, are there other code samples, drivers, etc. 
   available, possibly via anonymous ftp?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

The ELC and SS2 have the same CPU.  When you boot an ELC or an SS2, they
both say "cpu = SUNW,Sun 4/25".  In a couple of quick tests that I
just ran, an SS2 and ELC ran at just about the same speed.

I can't believe this. The ELC has a 33 MHz clock rate, the SS2 and
the IPX run at 40 MHz. I don't have either handy (this is an IPC),
so I can't look at the boot message.

I spent many long nights fighting with this problem.  Unfortunately,
that was almost a year ago, and I have forgotten the details, but
I do remember that it is important that you set change your internal
modem settings by issuing a ATC1D2&W command.

Hello All,


I would like to know what type and percentage discounts Sun gives to the
edu. market .  I am considering upgrading an old Sun 3/60 or 3/50 and
would like to know what it would run me?
Also would it be just as easy to get a new machine with the discounts?
