  1. I pack for myself most of the time. Every once in a while I'm just too tired to pack, or a packer is the only way I'll get on the load, so I pay up.

    i=i++?

    Here's the dissasembly of the pertinent sections of the java class file (comments are mine): 0 iconst_0 // push 0 on to the stack 1 istore_1 // pop top of stack (0) into our local variable i 2 iload_1 // push integer from local variable i onto the stack (so 0 is on top of the stack) 3 iinc 1 1 // increment local variable i by one (note that 0 is still on top of the stack) 6 istore_1 // pop the top of the stack (0) into our local variable i Edit: It works (prints 0) in Perl: perl -e '$i = 0; $i = $i++; print $i'

    i=i++?

    The evaluation happens like this: 1. Get the value of i and store it away somewhere (so, store 0) 2. Increment i (so i equals one now) 3. Assign the value we stored in step one to i (so assign 0 to i).
  4. I knew it! It's obviously a Belgian plot to corner the world market on delicious, tube-packaged snack foods.

    i=i++?

    It doesn't look like a quirk to me. You are using a postfix increment, where the value of the variable is evaluated before it is incremented (as opposed to a prefix increment, like ++i). It is the way the operator is designed to work, and the way that it does work in every programming language that I've ever encountered.
  6. I can't figure out how you can call that anything but a malfunction. The unit clearly cut the loop when it wasn't supposed to.
  7. You can jump an automatic. I know you can push start a manual, but I don't think it works with autos. I suggest stealing a similar battery.

    The "*****SPAM*****" part is added by the Spam Assassin spam filter.
  9. On your way back, the St. Louis to Effingham leg will take you within about two miles of Archway Skydiving.

    Does that have something to do with soccer? But seriously folks.... I'll watch the later round games on cable. In the US, we are lucky if any of the games are broadcast live, even in the middle of the night. I think one of the broadcast networks might carry the finals, but I wouldn't expect to see any of the other games without cable.
  11. Pretty easy. From Willard Airport (actually in beautiful Savoy, IL): Take Airport Road east to US 45 (45 is the road you will run into immediately after leaving the airport). Turn right (southbound) onto 45. Go about a mile to CR 18, and turn right (westbound). CR 18 is the first possible right turn, it runs along the southern edge of the airport property. In another mile or two, take the ramp to I-57 northbound. 57 goes all the way to Rantoul.
  12. 0 : 3: 0? Planned on going to Hinckley on Saturday. Woke up at 6:00, weather looked crappy everywhere. Woke back up around noon, Hinckley was a wash, but Sky Knights looked good, so I headed across the border. 3 great jumps (solo belly to clean the cobwebs out, 2 sit attempts). Met Dumpster. Pretty sure I saw ladyskydiver earlier in the day, but she had left by the time I realized who she was
  13. Mine is a character named Chuck from the comic Penny Arcade. He looks kinda, but not really, like me.
  14. For my Vector III: Freebag $105, reserve pilot chute $120, reserve handle $40, cutaway handle $30, reserve repack $48 (from the Para Gear 2001-2002 catalog). Total: $343. $273 without the handles. Repair costs on damaged gear could easily run the total up to $500.
  15. Well, it doesn't look like I'll be showing up. In the last 24 hours, the weather has gone from possible to maybe to "no way in hell." Sigh. This is probably my last weekend off until June, too. Edit: Don't count me out yet! I've been checking the different weather services and it looks like it may be jumpable in the afternoon. I'll be making my final decision tommorrow morning, but I might just drive out anyway.
  16. I read it right away, and then sometimes I even reply (and if I didn't reply to a PM from you, it isn't anything personal. If you thought that was rude or awkward, you should try having an IM conversation with me). Edit: One spelling, one grammar.
  17. I was going to go to Archway and maybe get some freefly coaching, but work got in the way as usual.
  18. There was a site that showed anything with a transponder flying around (I think) LA. In fact, I'm pretty sure I got the link to that from here.
  19. I owned a Beta until a year ago. Tapes finally got too hard to find, not to mention the lack of a timer feature, and I can fit my VCR, DVD player, and Playstation 2 on the same shelf that was completely filled by the Betamax.
  20. Real Player has bugs. Tons of them. In one office, we saw performance problems on almost half of the machines. It turned out that Real was trying to use 100% of the processor when it was supposed to idling in the taskbar. Occasionally it would continue to run in the background, even after the user thought that it had been closed. Unistalling Real and refusing to reinstall it solved the problem.
  21. Absolutely not. He has indicated to you that he doesn't plan on honoring the waiver that he will sign. I think that qualifies as grounds for refusing to allow him to jump.
  22. did you try downloading mIRC? Or using Slappie's chat?
  23. Are you getting and error message, or just not getting in?

  25. I've gotten 5 of these in the last day (and probably more that were caught by my spam filters): "These Iraqi wimen don't resist anymore" "Iraqi wimen showing their gratitude" "Iraq women disrobed and violated" and those are the tame ones. So am I the only one?
