Apparently folk singers covering Rammstein is a thing now...

On a side note, I think that Gray Fox (From Metal Gear Solid, not the Elder Scrolls IV) Should be on Saltybets sometime. Then I'll watch it.
What if you had the Metal Gear Gray Fox fight the Elder Scrolls Gray Fox?
Who would you vote for?
<bad joke>
Depends on the sound they make, I guess.
</bad joke>

It was just announced today that my favorite vocalist, Floor Jansen, has been permanently added to Nightwish's line-up.  Her previous bands wrote great lyrics, but mediocre music.  On the other hand, I've always felt that Nightwish wrote great music and good lyrics, but had mediocre vocalists.  This is a perfect match.  I can't wait to see what they'll be able to create together.

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Trying to find youtube videos of the live concerts from the Imaginaerum tour to get a feel for her vocals, but all of the sound quality is bad.
I'm the (or one of the) aforementioned announcers.
Yeah, that sucks. I saw the Ima-tour with Anette, and although I quite like the Ima-album (took a few times of listening to it), she was absolutely horrible on the Tarja stuff (at Over the Hills me and friend just ran away, that bad)... Was never a big fan of After Forever, but Salmon convinced me Floor had it in her. After seeing that trailer just the other day, I was convinced.

So yeah, time for a new tour :)

Why would I choose Fortran over something like C?
I'm curious-does fortran really do better than C for iterative math, even with all the optimizations C went over the part decade?
Because you're a financial institution that still uses Fortran code written 30+ years ago and refuses to rebuild 30+ years of code because that would require about 10 years of work?

Another one. A tip, as there are too many of these well-meaning but ill-supported advertisements on the internet:
  • please state your USP's, or what makes this project different than all the others,
  • what are your credentials,
  • what is the state of the current team
  • what is your budget, business plan, and who are your investors

My new project is coming along nicely...

Does anyone know a CCG-like card-design I can legally re-use?

Siquo, does your wife happen to be single?
I'll ask her!

Sorry for more of the same, but we have about 4000 pictures and 16Gig of video of this shit.

Being drunk makes me happy! (Which might be a bad thing in and of isteld itself)

We do all of that shit. At least I do something right, or better than most of the rest of the world.

I don't enjoy it, so obviously no one does. Just saying that they probably know better than you whether they had fun.
I just don't think getting shitfaced, getting the clap from some stranger, and forgetting the whole thing sounds very fun.
That's just like, your opinion man. But I'm an alcoholic.

This whole "local brew" thing from the USA interests me, however. Although smaller breweries are on the rise here in Europe, IPA's are still very rare and supposedly very tasty.

Code: [Select]
{break;
cout << "error";}

Unreachable code?

Also, those curly braces.
It's a totally new style.

I dig it.

I'm going to spend the afternoon re-styling all my code like that.

The Railroad Tycoon franchise is on sale.
Railroad Tycoon 3 has one of the best economic systems that I saw in a game. I played that and replayed that.

I miss you, PopTop games.

So my 6 yr old daughter has "Maths Day" in school tomorrow, which entails dressing up as something mathsy. So, I buy her a lil white boiler suit and have covered it with around 500 maths and physics principles/equations. Her class teacher will no doubt assume most of it is made up nonsence, but a little part of me is kinda all gooey about my kid wandering around tomorrow with this stuff all over her... :)
That is awesome :)
