Thread up, else things will get clog-orific. 😛
Why not, looks like others found it helpful, there is a global setting in Adrenalin, and other suggestions here which might help. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Sounds like a project topic in the offing. 🙂
We could ask him for comment, or comment for code, or comment in return for code, or vice-versa, or seek his recommended flavour of Febreze – over here there’s Glen 20 for extra bug zap. 😛
Do you use NVAC?

[DeVaultSetter]

On the list! Super brains were a thing then, Billion Dollar Brain, Colossus, and much later, The Machine. 😛
If you like theatre, suspense, and a highly active screenplay, Deathtrap has it all. Once acclimatised to the rhythm of Lumet’s direction, you won’t be switching off. The article mentions the earlier Sleuth, one for Caine fans too. Recommended.

VS is the first preference here as it has an IDE and a feedback system which has good support. There are others like the cross platform VSCode which might be worth trying out at some stage.

On the Sourcefourge page the licence is “GNU General Public License version 2.0 (GPLv2),” still more popular than other versions, but second fiddle to MIT these days.
There’s a fair bit of bulk in David’s code, so shooting through an enquiry might work. It’s clear he wanted to move quickly away from MWEdit, as evidenced by not providing answer for all the bugs posted, even if half of them were PEBCAK.
Is FNV coming from Steam, GOG or Beth?

[DeVaultSetter]

Funny, despite Reddit and others, no mention of Fallout in the article, or even in previous adaptations in the talk page. Both have a TV series out, of course, on the watchlist. 🙂

Isn’t it supposed to be the middle of winter over there, yet these fires in LA. Has anything like that ever happened before at such a time of year?

[DeVaultSetter]

Sounds a likely candidate for Projects, getting it all to wrok from VS being the major stumbling block if not disposed to CMake. Is that image library still being updated?
Edit: Doesn’t look like it, and there are embedded dlls, so how closely bound into the project is it.

[DeVaultSetter]

Sprechen sie Deutsch Nein? About the limit of mine. 😛
Morrowind anyone? Interesting C++ project for budding (or even slightly decrepit) C++ enthusiasts! 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Yep, Goldfinger has descended to Purgatory and is still playing his golden harp, they say. 😛
While the Good Ship Murder is seen “sailing” off into the sunset, Catch Me a Killer (TV_series) looms into view stage right. Phew, some viewing ahead as each of the 11 episodes run 60 minutes, with more for the ads.

[DeVaultSetter]

When the 4k arrives, will have to see those! 🙂
WALL-E is really a very sad movie. 🙂
The Good Ship Murder is brilliant C-grade fare, even the cheesy songs at the end of each solved “mystery.” Like the idea if it were ever adopted for a RL cruise theme, slight problem, there actually is an unsolved case connected to that very ship. 😛

Happy birthday! Half your luck for the snow, there’s even an article about it for good measure. Don’t suppose the tropical plants will be too enthused.

[DeVaultSetter]

Over here, dreaming of a slightly off-white Christmas is good enough so long it deosn’t get too drab grey!
Here’s an uncredited song from Inspector Morse clipped for youtube:

Yes, backup is essential, especially through periods of elevated solar activity. DSL continues to work well, most modems support it, and I still chat to Mum through the copper telephone wires on a regular basis.
Bet this is all down to AT&T in lieu of maintenance costs, one way to bring them back on the ready – is – Trump anyone? 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

There once was an old saying:

Waste not, want not.

Nowadays it’s more like:

Waste not, What not.

On QI: Upside Down they showed among other things wine glasses, art, flags and faces, there’s also inverted beer bottles/glasses and more on Wikimedia such as animals, amusement rides and houses. Just to stodge up this page try this selection of three houses to choose a favourite from:



BTW Here’s a nice reflection from a street café a few years back:

A bottle and glass observation tower in a rest area!

Nico at AfkMods mentioned GOGs giveaway of the point and click The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav, downloading now. The manual for the KQ adventure-like looks really cool, the main gripe in game seems to be stuff lost in translation, oh well.

Even for a not so die-hard fan of movie musicals, Hairspray (2007_film) had a few good scenes, the transformation of John Travolta was nothing short of phenomenal. Soundtrack was a little short of amazing, with numbers like “(You’re) Timeless to Me”:

On FTA they played The Daughter, local fare, a well thought out and presented adaptation of Ibsen. Later that week there was Bad Eggs with which the viewing only made it to the end of the first half. Something off in the direction, the script and gags kind of worked even though everything looked and sounded out of place – although they weren’t really. You’ll have to see it yourself to understand this reaction though, which is something not recommended. 😛
Have just completed series 1 of Before We Die, an adaptation of the Swedish series, little interest has rendered the Wikipedia is rather bare. Not bad, some strange scene switches and unlikely developments might have been a turn off for some, as with the overdone effects, gloomy synths, and grey noise. Still, the yet to be mentioned series 2 presents a little better, launching it smack dab in the middle of true B-Grade-dom. 😛
You just didn’t want to confuse with DCI Tina Carter in series 1 with DCI Nicky Harris in series 2.
Edit: That was quick, so now onto Under the Banner of_Heaven (miniseries). Based on true crime, this carries a lot more weight in research and production. The seven episodes are longer too, up to 88 minutes in length, so plenty of character interplay and engrossing drama.

[DeVaultSetter]

Myths don’t die, they just get put into cold storage, a place one suspects Santa is familiar with in any case. 😛
The association of Santa with Christmas holidays may live on more as a Santa Pause in the way of celebrating the beginning of Christianity. As for now, no letup in the plastic landfill armageddon of decorations, trees and wrap, a somewhst bizarre outcome. 🙁
Merry Christmas, btw. 🙂

Heh, first read the conviction as:

50 hours of community service at the Hangover Recreation Commission.

Sure would have been a novel AA initiative!
Yeah, the general reaction to brownouts is folks getting browned off, as in a dropout in the middle of cooking the Christmas turkey, the roast is not!
A few Christmases back gave Mum a straw/wicker donkey/burro figurine/piñata a bit like this: 😛

Wonder how it’s doing now.

[DeVaultSetter]

Not sure, probably costs more to produce and extract than the others, no mention of it in the research section. Heck, made a suggestion in the talk page, just in case someone gets the urge to go dig. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

It’s perfect – a little bit of thatching more so. Not a lot of info about the water as we know – that’s a critical component for hot bubbly spas in our chicken doodle coop!
Sounds like you have been doing lifting – could that be the culprit?
Another oil spill – they’ll want to blame it on the old ships. Wonder how much of it can be cleaned?

[DeVaultSetter]

There were intimations of Gotham, or even Sin City in Se7en through which Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt were guiding lights, the atmosphere and mood also kept the movie on course. By the very title, along with the early revelations, you knew pretty much well what was going to happen, which reduced the tension somewhat. But boy o boy, the surprise ending made up for any reservations! Recommended.
Later on FTA, no grand feats of derring-do with costume regalia, matching dialogue or breathtaking denouement to be found in To Leslie, rather a blunt and earthy script to see the lead characters on their way. One of those movies where the urge to switch channels could not be entirely sublimated as the high critical appraisal did not quite convince. It’s worth watching so long the usual expectations of derived movie entertainment can be mothballed prior to screening.
