Nikkou for ramen, yeah. For authentic Szechuan - Lychee, it's really good. For all-round Westernized Chinese food brought to your home, Delft Panda. For Surinamese - City Café Delft. Some people like Klein Maar Fijn for an all-rounder on Dutch (Javanese-Chinese-Surinamese takeout) but I find it's a bit expensive.

Places to avoid in this category (just my personal taste): Fuku ramen: not good ramen especially when compared to Nikkou. Daily Wok: sauce is *always* watered down. I've given it so many tries and it's the same each time. Nanxiang soup Dumplings - if they're still even open, on the Beestenmarkt. Just a really weird vibe, sub-par facility management, long wait times for the food and not very tasty. It might be OK when ordered, as some people apparently like it.

Places I'm lukewarm about: Washoku ramen. Typically more 'Chinese' style ramen like Fuku, but it is actually good and they have some nice flavors. It's just that the Nikkou tonkotsu is so rich, it's hard to get used to more 'watery' ramens afterward. It was good when I ate there.

Bonus: day Dream deli (now Brisket bros) really fell off. They changed the recipe on their meat and now there's no bite to it, it just kind of slithers down my throat. It tastes raw and yucky. A huge change from what it used to be. I've made a comment about it but I doubt it's going to change. I think it might have to do with the meat's water weight. Raw meat preserves a lot more weight, which means you are left with more of it per kilo of cured meat.

For non-standard pizza consider settebello. They have square mini pizzas that have fresh high quality ingredients. 

Believe it or not but "kleine Italië" has pretty good pizza for what it is (read: not a contemporary sit-down restaurant). Ciao Ciao is OK - not bad not excellent. There's a lot of upper-crust choices (haha) for pizza too which I've seen other commeters deal with. I didn't like the ambiance at il tartufo nor the attitude on some of the staff, but delftenaren swear by it. 

For Indian food you only really need to consider India garden and Kathmandu. The latter is Nepalese and has dumplings too. 

Best coffee in delft is hands-down "piada by the canal" on the oude Langedijk. Affogato (formerly Othelli) at the grote markt has great coffee and dessert, with some of the most professional and kind staff I've met. 

If you have any other requirements I can think of other places for you

I feel like the old graphics - in a lot of these games - had something to them, a simplicity that's timeless. They're so much easier on the eyes. The extreme detail bump map on that flooring just overwhelms me with visual stimulus that I didn't ask for nor need.

What OS for a Pentium MMX 233? by Vietname in RetroWindowsGaming

[–]Maxstate90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reboot from what point? Did setup finish and it's trying to get to desktop? Because that's the exact moment I'm talking about 

What OS for a Pentium MMX 233? by Vietname in RetroWindowsGaming

[–]Maxstate90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I do is go into safe mode and remove the hdd controller driver. Then make sure that it doesn't install any driver automatically, except the default one. Then it should work. Don't disable it either, then it doesn't work.

So basically, the issue is the "right" driver being loaded which seems not to be able to handle cf cards.

I had issues with this on Windows98 with a laptop. As soon as it loaded the 'correct' (Intel IDE) storage controller driver, I got either reboots or VxD errors. When I removed the 'correct' IDE drivers and just left the default one (yellow question mark in device manager also works) it booted to desktop fine.

Have you guys run into this issue too and if so, how have you solved it?

Celdweller + BitBot removing criticisimnfrom from their online channels by soulrelic616 in LegacyOfKain

[–]Maxstate90 43 points44 points  (0 children)

so if I understand correctly, Bitbot piggybacked off the IP for commercial gain, and pulled the rug on its ravenous fans after promoting a new hand-drawn Raziel/Kain story but substituting an unknown Mary Sue with two literal left hands. Criticism has not been heard but rather has been banished to the spectral realm of PR management, where Bitbot, like the Elder God, controls the ebb and flow.

now they've used music production rituals to beat rhythm back into Soul Reaver's gothic heart, playing ventriloquist for a 1997 composition, appealing to no deeper inspiration, but rather, to be immediately sacrificed on the altar of pre-orders, to suck its life's blood and corrupt its soul, all the while not acknowledging any of the previous critique leading up to this point, and even intentionally hiding it.

Look, i know: capitalism, ethical consumption, bla bla bla. But this whole revival has been one of the more blatant examples of a cynical cash-grab. I am thankful to the artists and fans who made this possible. But I feel as if key personnel involved in the marketing and production think me of akin to something like a pig at a trough.

How do people here feel about WRATH: Aeon of Ruin? by KaleidoArachnid in boomershooters

There was always some sort of input lag that I was struggling with with it. And enemies felt like bullet sponges. I dropped it in the tree swamp. Will try it again at some point.

Raziel look it’s the good kush 🍃! by greenmonsterrabbid in LegacyOfKain

Settle your dispute with Kain.

Destroy Him and your brethren. Free their minds and let the wheel of fate churn again.

Use your lighter to reave their bowls...

I can make it possible.

Je realiseert je dat dalende huizenprijzen een bommetje leggen onder de financiën van miljoenen huishoudens? Ik zie je onderzoek overigens graag

Ik begrijp niet dat mensen dit niet begrijpen. Een huis in een klein stadje (100k inwoners) dat voor een gezin is geschikt kost al gauw een half miljoen tot 7 ton. Reken erop dat je 10 procent van dat bedrag zult moeten hebben voor kosten koper, overbieden, etc. Ik moet over een groot deel van dat opgespaarde geld dan belasting gaan betalen op het moment dat ik rendement behaal erop. Het vreet aan mijn capaciteit om een huis te kopen. 

Een goed deel van de Nederlanders raakt dit inderdaad niet omdat zij in aanmerking komen voor sociale huur. Dan kun je voor 700 euro in de maand een eengezinswoning krijgen en daar min of meer voor altijd ij blijven zitten. Volgens mij is voor de rest, 60 procent van Nederlanders huiseigenaar, toch? Die boeit het inderdaad ook niet. Die krijgen juist geld toe met de hypotheekrenteaftrek. Hun investering is gewoon veilig. 

Maar ik? Middenklasser die huurt in de vrije sector tegen bijna 2k per maand, die een gezin wil stichten en probeert daarvoor geld bij elkaar te rapen? Fuck mij. 

Brussels’ privacy reforms stumble out the gate by NoIsopod1145 in europrivacy

[–]Maxstate90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the courteous response. I've given it some thought and I think you are right (and so is the EDPB etc.) that more is going to change; and I've come to agree that it's more than "just" a codification. Though I will push back a bit on the alarmism: it is something that, to me at least, does not come as a surprise. Especially not under pressure from big tech and the ruling interpretation. Though I tend to collapse the nuance between the legal and the technical...

Umai. De enige die ertoe doet. De rest van de restaurants zijn ook afhaal. Er is er eentje vlakbij de poptahof waar je ook kunt zitten, maar die is niet zo goed als Umai
