    The What Music Are You Listening To Thread

    While I really like the sound of a good acoustic guitar, the electric guitar sound fails to appeal to me. I can't exactly put my finger on it why this is the case.

    World News Thread (Politics,whatever)

    It indeed seems like the government does not want me to work. Those who choose not to are rewarded by welfare schemes (unless they have some money saved up). I don't really get your communism story. But then again, I never understood how communism could work.

    World News Thread (Politics,whatever)

    I have never liked any form of taxation, but having to pay the majority of your income on taxes hurts especially bad. Naturally everything stacks. So you pay 52% income tax. Put the remaining 48% on a savings account where you pay 30% over an assumed (and unrealistic) interest rate of 4% (i.e...

    You did not have sales tax? Hard to imagine. What pay 21% VAT on all items except essentials such as food and medicine for which we pay 6%.

    Planet Computers : Gemini - Psion Returns

    Meaning that it will be what it always was, a niche device for enthusiasts. Was anyone expecting anything different?

    The way this is going, wine has better compatibility with windows games than windows 10 does :)

    Planet Computers : Gemini - Psion Returns

    I suppose you have to be Dutch to get this reference, but why am I thinking about toilet ducks now :p Robin claiming his product is good is not a particularly objective measure.

    The Caring Corner :)

    Same for me, unless it is too sunny as sitting in direct sun makes me very uncomfortable, sweaty, gasping for air and irritated. This triggers depression in me. So when you can actually feel the rays of the sun on your arms then I need to be careful. Needless to say, I hate the summer.

    Pyra Prototype Videos - Askarus Edition

    I think it is 0. But I am a pessimist. It could be 0.0000001 too.

    Case closed?

    No need to apologise. I just posted that to redirect further discussion to the right place. Ah...college crunch time. I have good memories of that :) Busy, exhausting but fun. Best time of my life. Thanks, you too.

    Sounds like Lunduke is having some great fun offline. I should try some of that. Too much not important/non urgent stuff in my life these days.

    The Caring Corner :)

    There is nothing wrong with that. You do not have to do it. There are plenty of ways to make a living and most hobbies do not require you to code (although TIS-100 can be a lot of fun). Ever had to extend crappy code of someone else under time pressure? That is where the real anti-fun starts.

    Sony PlayStation 5

    @CommanderB it is not about providing value to the customers anymore. Companies have been trying to kill off the second hand video game market for a long time.
