When a guy posted once that he thought that the phenols in hefeweizens, especially 4-vinyl-guiacol, were a result of the precursors found in wheat malt, even though everyone knows that they are mostly from the enzymatic breakdown of ferulic acid found in barley husks and are also dependent upon the yeast strains used!

Every one of us use computer and stuff like that. I thought everyone could be familiar with the components of the device that they use.

This post was certainly worth the wait.

Actually, it looked like a _typo_, given that he spelled it right the next time.

(What the fuck is a GeForce?)

How large is the pipeline in the processor you’re using? Is it single or multiple-issue? Does it use register renaming or out-of-order execution instead? What’s the cache architecture? What functional units can be shared by multiple threads on the same core?

Well? I’m waiting. I though you were familiar with the components of the device you’re using.

…

Ah hah hah hah! Register renaming and out-of-order execution are not mutually exclusive! I trolled you so hard! LOLOLOLOLOL

Not to the point of knowing every single series made by AMD, no. Are you familiar with every brand and spec of tyres and tyre chains? Cos I sure am not, and neither are most car mechanics.  
**Guin** , GeForce is one of Nvidia’s graphic card brands.

My dear chap, this is without doubt the least amusing thing I’ve seen this week. Why, it’s veritable anti-humour. If one were to distil it’s essence into an air dispersed grenade you could use it to take out a clown riot.

Hmm.

Jeffrey, do we even have weapons for dealing with rampaging clowns? Check the armoury, boy! And if we don’t, bring me my inventing hat.

If you’ve recovered from the OP’s joke, wipe the tears from your eyes and enjoy [this one](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Fr0gYW7Nf4).

( it’s a sketch from “A Bit of Fry & Laurie”. I hate it when people don’t give a description of YouTube links 😉 )
