You know you're a geek when........

[darth_indy]

...you can read /bin/bash lines like sentences

DO || ! DO ; try

Without cheating by going to ThinkGeek, does anyone know what comes next?

Eh, I cheated, but I was thinking "there is no try" while I was searching ThinkGeek.
Spoiler (highlight to see):
try: command not found

Thing is, not actually being geeky enough to have even looked at a bash script, much less having ever actually written one, I can only infer that the "!" before the second "DO" means "not". Therefore...

TRY = false

When you know of by heart and often post:
"Knowledge is free.

We are Anonymous.

We are Legion.

We do not forgive.

We do not forget.

Expect us."

you are a geek when you ask for a link to the weather page instead of looking through the window to see that it snows.

your idea of fun includes stuffing linux on a IBM thinkpad with a pentium 2 and 64 MB of ram.
you recompile the kernel on said laptop because the driver for <insert device here> isn't in the kernel that comes with <output of 'cat /etc/lsb-release' on about laptop>
you {"agree_with,disagree_with,will_flame_me_about} the tab style in this post
you use valid shell syntax in forum posts and avoid spaces in filenames whenever possible

Oh, I HATE spaces in filenames!

[scragar]

Oh, I HATE spaces in filenames!

Oh pulease:

rename -v 's/\ /\_/g' *

Tada, spaces are no longer a problem.

I make sure to not use spaces in filenames that I think I might have to use in a terminal. Some folders (like the one on my desktop that holds the Falling Sand Game (EXE)) that I know I'll never need to access through the terminal I allow to have spaces. Desktop folders especially don't look very good with underscores.

If your hybrid has a server rack on it, you might be a geek.
And if the servers cost you more than the car, you might be a geek.
