Where's the weirdest/most exotic place you've ever visited XDA from?
Come on now,
come clean,
whether you're single, dating or married, you know you've done it...
under the cloak of darkness, or dare I say, in public (you voyeour you)...
You've been busted doing it, and lied about it...
Admit it, it's a guilty pleasure and you have to do it more than once a day...
You're addicted...
What odd space are you visiting XDA from?

I'm doing it now as I type this with one hand.
On a last seat of an "electronic bus" (I do not know how to call it, we have those things in Estonia - they get power through two corns from lines over them) and I was 18 but she was 23

No way!
On a top of a mountain in the snow. Both the dirty version and visit XDA
Its amazing how good cell reception is when you have line of sight to 100 towers I also called in a pizza whilst up there...
On top of a machine wash
Take your pick:
On top of a mountain (No snow thankfully)
On an Amtrak Train
In a PortaJohn (It was clean and unused for the record)
In the Data Center
On the CEO's desk (I won't state whether it was my employer or hers)
No me but definitely worth a mention:
A former Cellular Carrier employee and a subcontractor were caught inside a shelter at a Cell Site.
Now I hope you meant "the wierdest place you've accessed XDA"
I don't get what you are trying to ask. Weirdest place you've accessed XDA or weirdest place you've done it? "referring to sex"

So now I think the place is not a problem for this topic.
But one thing still confuses me is if just using mouth to do “that”，should it be counted in "that"??

Droid Incredible Source Code has officially been released.
http://developer.htc.com/
Enjoy!
OK - can anyone explain the difference between:
-Droid Incredible by hTC – Froyo MR3 – 2.6.32 kernel source code
and
-Droid Incredible by HTC (Verizon) - Froyo MR - 2.6.32 kernel source code
MR is probably the previous kernel source code and the MR3 is the new kernel source code

I have no grounds for my guess, but my guess is that MR is the manufacturer kernel, one developed by HTC and the one they support, and then the other one is the one that after verizon tested out the updated and reviewed it and kicked back and told HTC to make edits, thus is the revised kernel. But htc is releasing their version cause if anyone were to use the source kernels posted anyways, who cares what verizon thinks in the first place.

My buddy is a grad from Clarkson. He loved it there, for the most part.... "drinking school with an engineering problem" is what he called it. I went to visit and go to stay at some giant house that some frat owns/rents. Place is HUGE. Basement party we had that night rocked pretty hard too...

I completely agree its a drinking school haha. I was asking if the house was red cause if so it sounds like he went to my fraternity and was curious who the friend was/if he was a brother cause I might know him.
But in terms of being a drinking school - I completely agree. I am in a Frat, I am the captain of the Mens Rugby Team (dunno which does more drinking lol) and I am the manager of both the bars on campus. On top of that the town we are in is a complete college town, has a population of like 10,000 when all 4 colleges are in session drops down to like 2000 on recess. And we have more bars per population in town than most other cities lol. There is not much to do up here but work and drink.
Mods - Sorry this is really off topic.

I am guessing you are referring to the hockey team, in which case I do. Personally I do not care about hockey, however being the manager of the bars on campus, I wish they would ****ing play good so people would come watch. When I was a freshman and working at the bar and they one the ECAC I would work 3 hours and take home 120$ in tips from all the alumni that would come up and just lay down tons of money. Now, I work 7 hours and am lucky if I make over 40$.

Im taking a trip to new York for a few days in february. Anyone have any suggestions of stuff to do? The day I get there ima see the knicks play at msg.. also on my list is flight club and nike town.

I live in NYC. I've been to a knicks game last week on monday. Sitting on the court. Photo creds rule
As for the city.
Typical tourist spots that I hate: Times Square, Ground Zero, Rockefeller center.
If you decide to go to one of the top buildings I suggest Top of the Rock. Much nicer view and you get an awesome view on the Empire State Building and Central Park. From the ESB you dont really see Central Park. I'm thinking what else is cool around the city.
YOu can visit "the hood" for an adrenaline rush when you gear gun shots.
Crap, I just realized I don't like NYC, and have no idea what legal stuff it has too offer.
YOu can take a walk through Central Park too.
I travel to NY almost all January´s and if it´s your first time I can recommend:
-Guggenheim Museum
- MOMA
- Battery Park
- See some plays @ Broadway
- Liberty Statue
- Bars at Soho and Greenwich Village
-Art & design galleries at Soho and Greenwich Village
- Walk on Central Park
- Skate in Rockefeller center
Just a few ones came up to my mind, it´s a great city and you´ll never get bored
All will depend on your personal preferences...
Also, if instead of the Knicks, you went to see the Rangers, there would be a high possibility you would meet me. lol
Also if you like restaurants, bars, pubs, taverns (yes, yes i know all the same thing ) ect...Come to Hoboken NJ TONS of places!!

I think him saying he's going to MSG to see the Kicks kind of gives it away that he'll be in the city.
If you want bars, walk down second Ave between Houston and 15th street. You'll find hundreds.
McSorleys on 7th street between 2nd and 3rd for $2 beers (They come in "Dark" and "Light" only) and The Continental on 3rd Ave and 8th street for "$10 for 5 shots of anything."
Hope all friends are ok over there

Hope everyone makes it out okay. Our prayers are with you.
Im hearing 7.2-8.9 Im really curious as to which is accurate. For those who dont know, the difference between 7.2 and 8.9 is, 8.9 is over 100 times more powerful.
Reports seem to be saying it was 8.9
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richter_magnitude_scale
7.2 938 kilotons(TNT)
8.9 336 megatons(TNT)
1 megaton = 1000 kilotons.
Holy **** that thing was ****ing massive.
watching the tsunami live....
crazy the power of nature, praying for everybody overthere...
That is crazy that tsunami is sick gota be alot of people dead hope not watching it on tv now WOW!
Yeah it's all over the news. They say the magnitude was 8.9 richter!! The sixth biggest earthquake to be observed. Fortunately Japanese are used to earthquakes and have the know-how for these kind of situations. Let's hope for the best.
Not only the earthquake, hope Tsunamis are not hitting close shores like Indonesia, Philippines...
http://www.weather.gov/ptwc/
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families affected by the earthquake.
Absolutely catastrophic event we are witnessing on TV. Thousands and thousands of people are dead already - thousands of years of family farm land destroyed - buildings, houses, everything destroyed. Just awful.
I'm with you on this one. Completely devastating earthquake. My prayers go out to everyone affected by this.
Was just reading about it, very unfortunate.

well im a full time welder and I've always liked my job But lately things have been going slow in my life and I feel like i'm just going nowhere in life.
I went to college coming out of high school and blew it off like an idiot. I've always been wanting to go back but I always feel like i'm setting myself up for failure and will just waste my time and money.
I'm 24 years old and now i'm at a point in my life where I have to start getting my **** together, but this welding job is just moving to slow for me.
for the past 3-4 years, I've been learning and working with computers. Im not a pro at it but I know more then the average person.
Well I've been doing a lot of thinking and its time I go back to school to improve my life. i want to get more into the computer world and chase a computer science degree. My question to you guys is, where should I start? I know I need to look into schools, classes etc. what I mean is what can I start studying in the mean time (before I actually start my schooling) so that I can have a head start.

What kind of thing do you want to do with computers? Hardware, software, app development, web development, game development, db admin, network admin? There's loads of routes to go down, all dependant on what you want to do.
And if anyone recommends a programming language to you before you answer that question then they don't know what they're talking about. Either that, or they're just saying "this is what I know - look at me - aren't I clever?".
Im leaning toward network admin. Im planning to aign up fall or winter classes but I wanna study a bit before starting. My company will pay for the schooling depending on the grades.

I'm trying to learn Python. I think I can get the hang of it before school starts again in September.

I can't advise you on the network admin side of things, other than you'll need a good degree to get a decent job, or start really at the bottom and work your way up slowly. It's quite a well-educated field, for real pros. There's plenty of hack and slash network admins out there, but they're the type that bring networks down by saying "I wonder what that does!" (I've worked with some of them before )

W!LßSO @ XDA
Absolutely, good luck with it. I was 22 before I got a qualification in programming, despite developing software since the age of 8. No-one would give me a job without it, so I did a course, got the paper and got a job. Been doing it ever since.
It's good to do something new and start over, as long as it's something you have a passion for.
I'm in medical school now, three years to graduation(but, I'll study another six years after that...). I have this friend, he's, I think over 30 years, and he's at the same "grade" as I am. He also was like you, had a "low-education"(help me here ) job, and then he decided to go into Med. I'm kinda proud of him, he's a good inspiration for people like you. It's a long way to become a doc, but it's never too late. I strongly recommend you to go to school, it'll be worth it!
All respect and luck shall be with you!
(I just realized my grammar sucks )
Yea man 24 is not late at all! Im a emt and a emergency medical flight dispatcher and when my girl gets done with school in like 3 semesers i think ima go back and be a game warden for the state of louisiana. She is 28 and im 34 and we have a two year old good luck man its worth it.

tnx
Definitely check out the Community Colleges in your area, especially ones that have really good relationships with the better Engineering/Technical universities in your area. You will save yourself a ton doing your first two years there, and a lot of schools that will even let you get complete your four year degree through associated Community Colleges. You also get the benefit of smaller classes and professors that actually know your name.
I just finished my associates after going on and off forever so don't feel like you're outback because you've waited. Get it done man, you're still well ahead of the curve. If you want to start this fall though you need to go ahead and sign up.

Is it bad that I don't want to go to college? I'm a high honors student and everything but I don't know. My parents would hate me for this. After highschool I want to book a flight to some other part of the country. Maybe somewhere in California? Find an okay job and a little apartment. Buy myself a comfy couch and live alone and sit and soak in life. It's all I want I guess... But I get it you guys are motivated by things like your own family and stuff. I'd love to find someone but I know that probably won't happen because of the person I am. So I have no need to have a lot of money or be rich at all like most people. Just enough to get by and maybe occasionally buy a game or phone or something haha.

Most apartments and stuff in my particular area are about 300 to 400 a month which isn't too bad for a decent place. But im in a small town, now if I was to drive about 15 minutes to the next town they can be around 700 to 1200 a month
Im a special case however the place I got me and the roommate own the property and the house, so we only have to pay utilities and bills.
