couldn't find the games-thread. thought it was there. anyway, came across this: http://boingboing.net/2016/03/05/mame-is-now-free-as-well-as-fr.html as we were recently discussing the old Burgoo games-spin, this should be relevant: ROMs for Free Download Thanks to the generosity of some of the origi...

they are called man-pages for a reason. not for children.

Drenthe is wonderful :)

^ what!? google??? that is a revolutionary approach! ;)

are you telling me i forgot to post that shit here when i found it!? damn. indeed G, have been enjoying that album for some time now, really good stuff.

welcome to the shithole beantaxi :)
strong name. evocative.

now on to more important matters.

1. where are you located?
2. what is your favourite colour?
3. what is your favourite animal?

damn that rabbithole. reminds me of Sasha Grey on Tyra Banks show: 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxUq_zzvAaA 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYs2YfNlRBg 3 & 4 can be found too but are less about her. anyway, those videos really pissed me off in how prejudiced they are. and looking for th...

not saying Tool are bad. from what i've heard of their stuff it is really good music. however, it doesn't resonate with me, and the other bands do, that's all :)

btw: i never really listen to any of this stuff anymore. younger years :)

Korn did stuff i'd never heard before. Just listen to a song like Twist . or who knows, perhaps i just don't know enough metal to recognize it, but to me it was a fresh things. For Limp Bizkit, i always thought the first album was really good and quite ignored by most (since they only got their big ...

yeah i suppose i should mostly keep an eye out for UEFI, eh. i'll just do some decent research and hope my laptop doesnt break down in the mean time forcing me to make a quick decision.

well that's a good point anyway. damn categories suck a bit :)

yeah dont really care about non-free or not. just want something that is supported on linux.

was thinking about this, and wanted to include Deftones but then i read the description of Nu Metal on Wikipedia and with the emphasis/mixing in of hiphop and rhythm-oriented stuff, im not sure Deftones would actually fit in with the rest. Korn and Limp Bizkit (first 2 albums) are the only real Nu M...

just for my info in case i want to buy a new laptop at some point in the future: i wasn't going with AMD because they've only given me shit with Linux so far (fucking Radeon Mobile doesn't help)... so i figured I should do Intel. is that correct?

i grew up in the middle of the nu-metal period, and fwiw i've never considered Sepultura to be anything resembling nu-metal. they were, afaik, well-establish before bands like KoRn popped up. The music also has a distinctly different vibe, a lot less "emo" (for lack of a better term). it's...

fyi, rfkill can get softblocked through win(7) dual booting action. hardblock will always be a switch. but yeah, it took me looooong time to figure that out too.

welcome :)

rhowaldt, i'll have to come up with an intro thread soon. my people skills are in the range between hermit and wild animal. sorry for the bad manners. no worries. just consider it a reminder. and also, it doesn't have to be anything fancy. just tell us something about yourself, why you are here, wh...
