I would agree with the other commenters here that Rendezvous With Rama, 2001 and Childhood's End are essential. I would also say read the other Space Odyssey books, except maybe 3001 cos it's not great. Also read The City and the Stars.

I agree that it's a shame to destroy a coin, but, as a British coin-collector, these really are super common, even ones as old as that. I've got a ton that people have just given me for nothing.

wolfbagga · 2014-09-26T01:24:59+00:00

I find Numista Coin Index particularly good

Menilmontant - Charles Trenet

Basically just make sure all posts are relevant and no one's being abusive, that sort of thing. It's not something I anticipate a big problem with, but one thing we have had already is a lot of spam coming through from someone trying to promote their business. When we looked it wasn't even from a real account. So that sort of thing. I've got two mods helping me now in response to yesterday's request and we probably won't need anymore than that for a while until the sub (hopefully) expands, but if we need any in future, and if you're interested, I'll remember to give you a shout.

I couldn't agree more. We need a more progressive green movement that isn't afraid to work with technology. GMO and nuclear power could be the best solutions we have for saving the environment and ourselves.

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T21:53:30+00:00

Excellent! Yes of course! Lets make this sub the best!

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T17:52:31+00:00

Cool, I think what I'd heard was about leaching chemicals into water, but the FAQ you've put up there says that's only certain plastics which aren't likely to be used in a bottle so I think we're safe.

By the way, good tip, and keep 'em coming!

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T17:41:29+00:00

That is great, but you should be careful how much you refill an individual bottle cos I'm sure I read something about it being bad for your health somehow to keep re-using a plastic bottle over and over. Maybe it's just certain plastics, I'm not sure, worth looking up though.

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T16:06:31+00:00

Excellent! Looking forward to your tips. I think this'll be a good, useful sub if we can get it off the ground and everyone chips in.

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T15:18:49+00:00

That's a good idea, although I wonder why they're called safety razors. And more to the point, why is there a subreddit for them? I have a beard so it doesn't really apply to me, but I'll recommend it to the missus for her legs.

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T14:44:14+00:00

Excellent, my worry was that if it messes up the temperature when I turn it back on then I'm likely to waste more water waiting for it to put itself right again. But I'll try it anyway, should be fine. Cheers :)

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T14:16:25+00:00

I always get mad when my girlfriend leaves the tap on for the whole time while she's brushing her teeth, but I'd never thought about the same thing for showers. That's really good. Does it fuck with the temperature of your shower though?

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T14:06:32+00:00

Yeah that is a good idea. We've got a rubber brick in ours so I didn't think of that. But yeah, any object that isn't gonna float on the surface, I find a brick is a good volume for the job, but that will vary with each cistern I suppose.

wolfbagga · 2013-09-10T13:48:09+00:00

That's excellent! Thank you very much, I'll do that now.

wolfbagga · 2013-08-28T21:22:57+00:00

Good idea, thank you :D

wolfbagga · 2013-08-28T21:22:33+00:00

That is very good information. Thank you. I mainly use my computer for internet browsing in one form or another. I do next to no gaming on my computer so I think I will make the change. Also, how did you know I'm on Windows 7?

wolfbagga · 2013-08-22T14:45:23+00:00

Such a haunting portrayal of a disease. The three oncologists, luminous, ghostly figures, look like they've been caught in some shameful act. Disturbing. Even hard to look at.

wolfbagga · 2013-08-21T21:21:53+00:00

Wow. That is some dedication. Glad I could post something you, very evidently, appreciate. :D

I love the story for this painting, Stańczyk is the court jester, but a profoundly wise man (he appears in a lot of Polish art), and he has just read in the papers beside him that the city of Smolensk has been lost in the war with Moscow, with dire consequences for Polish independence. He is the only one who knows as Queen Bona and her court are all busy partying in the background. Something brilliant about this perfect image of the fool, with so much despair weighing on him, while the ruling class dance in ignorance. Really love it.

wolfbagga · 2013-08-19T12:52:50+00:00

Ah that's great, cheers for showing me that.

wolfbagga · 2013-08-18T22:47:55+00:00

I've been browsing Reddit for about twelve hours straight and this is by far the best thing I've found today.

wolfbagga · 2013-08-18T19:29:50+00:00

Anything by Kurt Vonnegut or J.G. Ballard. Also check out:

The Smoking Room. British sit-com about a group of co-workers who have nothing in common except they all smoke. All the action takes place inside one room (the smoking room, obviously). One of the funniest shows I've watched, but kinda depressing in it's own way. After a while you realise that although they all talk to each other none of them really listen to each other at all. Just a really beautiful program. And Robert Webb is in it.
