New Nightwish album?

About time isn’t it. According to the official webpage they have pretty much been locked in the studio for a month now.
I’m still not sure if the new album will be published by Spinefarm Records but since there has been no info whatsoever I must assume it is so. Why risk a winning concept. Given [...]

Lite-ON 411S Media Results Update

I’ve completed all the tests that I said I would do. The results have been dumped to the hardware forum.
Also. There are consistent rumours of an impending firmware version that will fix “everything”. We can only hope. In the meantime I’m gonna have to think this one over and see if I can find a [...]

Conflict with F2O?

The question is [...]

Freeloaders

I have to admit I am one of them. A regular moocher. If there is ever a chance to cheat the system (any system) I tend to take it. Call it a lack of ethics if you will, but I am an extremely individualistic person living in an otherwise individualistic society. The only rule of [...]

Time to kill NATO

BBC: EU reassures US over defence
The members of the European union had this one chance to tear NATO apart and those cowards failed. What a miserable crowd. The joint defence policy will be but a shadow of what could have been.
And regardless of whether you feel that the policy is necessary it is a fact [...]
