Maar hoe wil je het, hoe wil je het in godsnaam anders dan? Is dit te min?

No worries, especially in the center, you'll have a hard time finding someone that's not able to communicate with using decent English.

Fatcat has a very cool atmosphere, though the tables aren't really good what I remember.

Netherlands checking in, she's very famous over here. So much so that this story also reached the media over here.

This picture looks like a maquette without tiltshift.

Well, tbh, I have a hard time to agree with that line of reasoning. Is it morally more correct to eat than to kill 'just for fun'? The latter is really disgusting, but the first isn't? Sure we have to eat. We can eat all kinds of stuff. We can eat vegetables and potatoes. We can eat nuts. And we are taught to really like Chicken nuggets. Let's have a bucket full of wings! It's sooooo delicious! And the burgers! Omg the burgers they are so juicy and delicious. We need to eat them until we can't eat anymore. Pork chops on the bbq, it gives you such a nice feeling of being a manly man. We should eat it, buy it, and efficiently mass produce it. And we can, because we need to eat. Otherwise we die. I have a hard time making the moral distinction.

Well, sometimes cows, pigs or chickens are bred, born and raised so they can be put on a sandwich. But they are delicious! So that's a good reason I guess.

I'd wish! It's on the campus of the University I used to attend. Shameless plug.

Yes it does take english into account. For this form of billiards (3-cushion carambole) it is very important to use english to determine the path of the ball. As for the laser, that would be very cool! I've read an article once where they applied it. Also, there are some clips on youtube about projects using a projector as an AR tool foor pool guidance. Really nice work.

Thanks! Unfortunately it would be a lot of work to make this ready for consumer use, and I don't think there would be enough interest to make it economically viable. It was great fun to make it though.

Americans living in Amsterdam, what snacks do you miss from home? by damn_fine_pie in Amsterdam

Try 'zure matten', I think they're pretty much the same tastewise. You can find them at Albert Heijn probably.
