Anandtech sneaks a peak at Nehalem
Aw man, I don't give too much for such "pre-release" tests, but hell, AMD is going to be stomped... A pity, now that the courts are slowly beginning to take up the claims from four years ago against Intel's systematical illegal practices to banish AMD's at that time vastly superior products from most bigger sellers, it won't be much use for them. Good work on Intel's side on the Nehalem it seems. Taking the best of their own past products (PIII and followers up to c2d) and the competitors (32/64bit hybrid, integrated memory controller, native quadcore design, replacement of fsb) and improving it. Evolution, while the competition has little choice but to go back to mid-range or low end...

Food Thread!
Pizza actually is one of the faster meals to prepare - and if you have no time, you buy a frozen one in a store, put it in the oven, 10mins and you have an ok meal. Funny enough that for lunch I was at Sam's Pizzaland and had a Pizza American style Wasn't bad, but there were fresh tomatoes and peperoni on it, so maybe it wasn't as American as they're called. Sauce instead of tomatoes... Maybe some mashed tomatoes as a base, yes... Anyway, the nasi-goreng tasted superb, and I don't even feel overly filled. To bad they only sold ginger in bags of hundred grams, when all we need are several slices... What to do with all the left over ginger (fresh)?
- Good news? I think it is.

Ah, if you see it like this it can make sense not to have a basement. Kind of. But how are buildings without basements fastened to their surroundings? I mean, a flood or hurricane could push them away without them being anchored into the ground You see, I'm from an ocean-less country

The Credit Card Prank
The same goes for debit cards in some shops around here. If you have a link, Tale, could you share it? I really hate to get cash just to use said shop, primarily because the closest cashpoint is 7mins from here by bus...

What you did today
Glad I could be of service When you've added those things, could you put it somewhere to download? I could use it, I think. Just came back from a business lunch. It's cool if people understand that university examns come before work and are able to extend timeframes No cellar for any of them? Seems strange, but it's american style, I guess... Well, for the first one: Isn't it weird to have a bathroom in the kitchen, so to speak? And from a feng-shui perspective it's designed quite suboptimally (dining room: table between window and door; generally a lot of straight lines between windows and doors: not much of a cosy home imo) The third one looks very ugly from the outside and the floorplan seems kind of experimental and confused/-ing. So I'd vote for the second - OTOH: It's you who is going to live in there, so if you like the first one best, just take it

The Credit Card Prank
My credit card has a PIN and can be used like a debit card if need be (but I'd pay a fix amount plus a percentage everytime I'd use it that way)... Anyway, fun read! Unfortunately I almost never got to sign a receipt as I mostly use it via PayPal for online shops...

Movies you have seen lately
google said imdb. Nothing too special apparently, starring some pron-"actress" I saw Pirates of the Carribean 3 yesterday. It was all right, many things not to like, some good parts, quite fun overall.

Webcomics
It has nothing to do with OOTS except that it's hosted there - different genre so to speak I like Erfworld, references en masse, tactics speculation in the forums etc...Other than that I have nothing to contribute as OOTS and Erfworld are the only webcomics I currently read.

You're not the only one at all who thought so. But I do not agree. There always are enough possibilities to get your spirit energy high enough, I never had problems even though my character was a caster (druid). Granted, I almost never devoured anything, so the hunger shrunk to a minimum in time. To me, it just added quite a bit to the need to get rid of this damn curse and a motivation for certain reactions by my character. Only tying the way of satisfying the hunger to the alignment was a bit sub-optimal, but removing it (it is removed now, isn't it it?) makes the consequences less noticable.

Ah, ic (if you want to play a little, try This little training-tool Just enter the regex under "Suchmuster"*, the text you want to apply the expression to under "Eingabetext"* and klick on the button "Zeigen"* on the left hand side) Today I trained, then worked a while and now I'm working on convincing myself to begin learning for the next examn... *: meaning "search pattern", "input text" and "show"

If using regular expressions, "context sensitive" is probably not the word you were looking for (because regular expression can, in an enhanced form iirc, describe context sensitive languages, which is a class of languages following complicated grammar rules) Anyway, I actually wrote to give you a simple solution to this: Python has some cool data structures, one of them being a set. Just toss the image names into a Set -> voil

Broken ribs are fun. Did you cough up some blood? Because it only counts if your lung was hit by it [edit] Sometimes I forget to post ontopic. Most of the time, actually... Today I mostly spent learning for tomorrow's examn.

Feeling Particularly Stimulated
It won't be able to rum at "1333", but it doesn't matter as Intel's FSB doesn't allow for any performance gains by the faster RAM (see here, but it's in german...)
