  1. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    Since I'm recovering at home and can't really work yet I've had time to make another mix set: This is an attempt at a techno journey from Detroit to Berlin and back again. Featuring tracks from the album Relax the machine by Cygnus, a shacknews poster who makes awesome music: http://cygnusat.bandcamp.com/album/relax-the-machine
  2. Movie/TV recommendations

    Have we talked about DREDD yet? Because that movie is pretty damn awesome. Hopefully the DVD/bluray sales will offset the horrible cinema income and give us a sequel because that's all I wanted after seeing this movie.

    Speaking of techno/electro: I made a new mix set! (New for those who don't follow me on the twitters, that is) Check it out. Feedback is more than welcome. http://www.mixcloud....eker/eurotrash/
  4. The ship: fruitcake steam cruise.

    Hmm. It seems that this particular fruitcake is rarer than I thought. Sadly I'm currently dead tired& in bed and won't be able to join the fun tonight :-/ But I'll try to get one of the dudes to reply here & try to figure out what their plan is regarding the keys.

  8. Life

    By what you described it does sound like a convoluted mess :/ (I haven't got any experience with wordpress tjough so I don't know how messy that is by itself)

    Yeah they cut through my breast bone and dove in to replace my heart valve and part of my aorta. Another scar for the chicks to dig (They still do that, right?) Also i think I forgot to congratulate Subbes on her new job, wishing Miffy all he best on his jobhunt and I feel sorry for whoever forced you to use woocommerce, nachimir. Can't you try something like shopify?

    Small update: I'm still alive & kicking! So far I'm right on track with my recovery and I'm feeling fine for someone who had his chest cut open and his heart valve replaced not 3 days ago

    Am I still in time to wish you all a happy new year? Ido hope i made that deadline. - posted from my hospital bed waiting for tomorrow morning for the big surgery
  12. Speaking of the story in Far Cry 3: I presume you all read this interview/discussion with the main writer of Far Cry 3 on RPS?
  13. Movie/TV recommendations

    The matrix series was fine right up to the release of the second movie. The Animatrix was quite excellent.
  14. Wait for it... Also, merry Christmas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyaKRp8B9Rw

    Yay for subbes! Also: Miffy, did you get that gift I sent you?
  17. Mark of the Ninja

    After hearing Chirs talk about the game on the podcast I bought the game and played through it whilst trying to not make any kill and did so without any problems except for maybe one or two points where I could'nt find a way around a cluster of guards. I never had to drag a body to get pas any laser beam. They're all avoidable by either disabling them, circumventing them or by timing your moves right.
  18. Double Fine Amnesia Fortnight 2012

    I watched all the videos yesterday and they're all great. Makes me want to make something myself.
  19. VG Mutha Fuckin As (Holy crapping cow)

    First of all: congratulations To Sean, Jake and everyone else at TTG! But I was rather annoyed/disapointed that Sean & Jake didn't get mentioned by name when they got the award.
  20. Games giveaway

    Armchair General: one Saints row 3 key coming your way! Anyone interested in the other games?

    Small update on the surgery thing: The show has moved to January 3rd. That is all. And also thank you all for the support!
  22. [part 2 because the forums are being mean and not let me post 4 links ] - Marcin Wichary works at Google making those awesome Google logo Doodles. He gives a talk about how his team tackles the challenges they come across when making these doodles.Bonus talk: - This is an interview with three people who have various disabilities talking about how they experience the web. And how we as developers can improve the experience with relatively simple tricks.
  23. To get annoyingly back on topic: The conference I helped organize just put the video's of the talks on line. If you happen to work with HTML/CSS/JS or are interested in that kind of stuff go check em out. You might learn a thing or two Highlights for me this year: - Alex Russell, One of the developers of Chrome at Google talks about what is keeping the web from doing awesome stuff with the current technology. - Phil Hawksworth a designer at a big London design company gives a very entertaining talk about how shitty modern day CMS's really are.

    So. I'm getting major heart surgery in about 3 weeks. In the week of December 10th I'll be going under the knife to get a new mechanical heart valve (And a bit of new aorta) thanks to a defect I had since my birth. Kinda nervous for that one.
  25. Double Fine Amnesia Fortnight 2012

    Holy crap, this is tons of awesome. Instantly paid 50 bucks! I do have to say that Spacebase DF-9 sounds suspiciously like a remake of of Mucky feet's Startopia. Which is a totally awesome thing! (I presume JP will address this some time during the fortnight)
