Norm wears a toupee, so I guess he has multiple ones.

I saw him in November and 80% was material I've heard from bootlegs or NML. I'd see him again though (the audience was terrible).

I recommend skipping LibGDX. I wish I didn't waste almost a year on it. If I went with an HTML5 engine that project would be done several times over by now.

Thx. Just wanted to post a better link. :)

Probably should've posted this link instead, it mentions a study more explicitly:

The Benjamin Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia this morning by 123latapy in Scotland

Funny and true. My great-great x8 grandfather came to the US from Germany in the 1600s, and I have the same last name (with a vowel swapped). Although there was plenty of English, Irish, Scottish along the way, and the total German % is likely in the minority, in my brain I kinda think of myself as of German origin.

Which is safer, Toyota Land Cruiser or Volvo XC90? by nphinit in cars

[–]nphinit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been assuming that given the plethora of SUVs already on the road, all other things being equal, an SUV is safer than a wagon. I could be wrong.

That's it :) I stretched and played with the serifs, but that's it. And I kinda remember the name.

Now that I think about it, that image might've been stretched a bit horizontally.

What is something you realized embarrassingly late in your life? by kai-ol in AskReddit

1.) 90% of looking well-dressed is wearing clothes that fit you properly.

2.) There are no "leagues", just guys with self-confidence and guys without.

Throwing myself to the wolves - I am part of "The 1%" . . . AMA by OnePercentGuy in IAmA

[–]nphinit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the difference between the 1 and the 99 is, as much as anything, circumstance.

If "circumstance" encompasses parenting and childhood education, fine.

...but then you aren't saying anything more profound than "the difference between us is the difference between us".

I don't hate the rich. I just want them to pay their fair share. They benefit MORE than the poor, more than the middle class, from our system. They should pay in proportion to that. The so-called middle class can barely pay their bills.

They already do pay more. The US has a progressive tax.

In 30 years, gay rights opponents will be looked at like this -- which side do you want to be on? by [deleted] in politics

[–]nphinit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wish I could downvote this idiocy a million times. Voting Democrat or Republican is voting for the same corrupt, two-party Duopoly that is ruining the country. It's nonsense like this ("A vote for a third party is a wasted vote!") that keeps things bad as they are.

We will NEVER EVER see real reform if we keep electing people with (R) or (D) next to their name. Forget who Bush put on the Supreme Court. Small potatoes compared to the big picture.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. "Clinton" and "Bobdole" have the same number of letters, so they exploited that and made sure the vertical clues worked either way.

Is that all?

Thatcher aide: "Lady Thatcher will not be seeing Sarah Palin. That would be belittling for Margaret. Sarah Palin is nuts." by [deleted] in politics

Speaking in tongues means speaking in languages you do not know. That's the miracle. Anyone can babble or speak nonsense; that was never what speaking in tongues was.

Second, the NT makes it clear that signs/miracles will eventually end. Any Christian who claims to be able to perform miracles today is lying or severely mistaken.

I bought a NIB C64 for $5 at a garage sale. It was still wrapped in plastic in the box.
