"Whose jet is it?"
Monday, 24. April 2006, 20:21:48
We use strong computers at Opera. I, for example, use Pentium 4 D 3 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 120 (may be even larger, I didn't check) GB hard disk, 19" LCD monitors, decent keyboard and mouse... Some of us also have some devices, too, since we work on mobile devices.
We have realized one annoying thing and that is really annoying for everyone; when I do CPU-bound operations (like building Opera, debugging some code, finding files, etc), my computer makes an annoying noise. CPU fan turns (most probably) as if it's off his rocker and it makes "real" noise!
I'm not alone anymore!
A new friend came up. He's living at the next table. Now, we are two "annoying computers"! Fortunately, other roommates are into aviation, too, so we can simply call noisy computers "the jets".
When one of us debug or build something, a little discussion starts;
- "whose jet is it?"
- "mine."
- "oh.."
- "cleared for take off, runway 1 right, Turkish 146.".
