Geek: GCS>AT: I'm a geek of computer science.
... but I'd like to be ...: a geek of all trades.
Dress: d-@(!)
I range from ...: I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt.
Varying wildly on this topic.
... to ...: No clothing. Quite a fashion statement, don't you think?
Shape: s+:->: I'm a little taller than most.; Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.
Age: a+>-: I'm between 40 and 49.
... but I'd like to be ...: I'm between 25 and 29.
Computers: C++$>: Computers are a large part of my existence. When I get up in the morning, the first thing I do is log myself in. I play games or mud on weekends, but still manage to stay off of academic probation.
I'm making money at this.
... but I'd like to be ...: Computers are a tool, nothing more. I use it when it serves my purpose.
Unix: UL+++$: Linux:; I don't need to crack /etc/passwd because I just modified su so that it doesn't prompt me. The admin staff doesn't even know I'm here. If you don't understand what I just said, this category does NOT apply to you.
I'm making money at this.
Perl: P+++$>: Perl is a very powerful programming tool. Not only do I no longer write shell scripts, I also no longer use awk or sed. I use Perl for all programs of less than a thousand lines.
I'm making money at this.
... but I'd like to be ...: I know Perl exists, but that's all.
Linux: L++++(+++)$
I range from ...: I am a Linux wizard. I munch C code for breakfast and have enough room left over for kernel debugging. I have so many patches installed that I lost track about ten versions ago. Linux newbies consider me a net.god.
... to ...: I use Linux exclusively on my system. I monitor comp.os.linux.* and even answer questions some times.
I'm making money at this.
Emacs: !E: I don't use Emacs.
Web: W++: I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.
Usenet: N++>+: I read all the news in a select handful of groups.
... but I'd like to be ...: I read news recreationally when I have some time to kill.
Kibo: K--: I dislike Kibo.
Usenet Oracle: o+: I have been incarnated at least once.
Windows: w---(!)
I range from ...: Windows has set back the computing industry by at least 10 years. Bill Gates should be drawn, quartered, hung, shot, poisoned, disembowelled, and then REALLY hurt.
... to ...: I don't use Windows.
OS/2: !O: I don't use OS/2.
Macintosh: M: I use a mac, but I'm pretty indifferent about it.
VMS: V-: Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.
Politics-Social: PS+(+++)
I 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 ...: Legalize drugs! Abolish the government. "Fuck the draft!"
Politics-Economic: PE: Distrust both government and business.
Cypherpunks: Y+>++: I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal.
... but I'd like to be ...: I am on the cypherpunks mailing list and active around Usenet. I never miss an opportunity to talk about the evils of Clipper and ITAR and the NSA. Orwell's 1984 is more than a story, it's a warning to ours and future generations. I'm a member of the EFF.
PGP: PGP+++(++)
I range from ...: I don't send or answer mail that is not encrypted, or at the very least signed. If you are reading this without decrypting it first, something is wrong. IT DIDN'T COME FROM ME!
... to ...: I have the most recent version and use it regularly
Trek: t+: It's a damn fine TV show and is one of the only things good on television any more.
Babylon 5: 5-: This show is sub-par. The acting is wooden, the special effects are obviously poor quality. In general, it seems like a very cheap Star Trek ripoff.
X-Files: X--: If I wanted to watch this kind of stuff, I'd talk to Oliver Stone
Roleplaying: R>+: Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.
... but I'd like to be ...: I've got my weekly sessions set up and a character that I know better than I know myself.
Television: tv-: I watch tv for the news and 'special programming'.
Books: b+++: I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet.
Dilbert: DI+@: I read Dilbert daily, often understanding it
Varying wildly on this topic.
DOOM!: D---: To hell with Doom, I miss Zork.
Geek Code: G: I know what the geek code is and even did up this code.
Education: e+*: I learned everything there is to know about life from the "Hitchhiker's Trilogy".
Housing: h(++)
I range from ...: Friends come over to visit every once in a while to talk about Geek things. There is a place for them to sit.
... to ...: Living in a cave with 47 computers and an Internet feed, located near a Dominoes pizza. See !d
Relationships: r@: I date periodically.
Varying wildly on this topic.
Sex[m]: y++(++++)
I range from ...: I was once referred to as 'easy'. I have no idea where that might have come from though.
... to ...: I have a few little rug rats to prove I've been there. Besides, with kids around, who has time for sex?
