Yes, Russian roulette, stabbing myself in the face with pointy things -- I don't do any fun stuff like that.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

Kraantje Pappie actually performed live right around the corner today!
I live in a small village where nothing ever happens, but it's Kings Day and there were some bands.
I'm surprised an artist of his fame comes to this backwater place.
And I didn't even know this yet when I posted the song this morning! 
Now that's coincidence...

Not sure if it sounds Scandinavian, but the Slavic one sounds like it could be Dutch 
Nice one too, by the way!

Did you ever wonder why a single Ninja in a movie is almost invincible while they drop like flies when a whole army of Ninjas comes? Analogous to energy, Ninjutsu can neither be created nor destroyed. If there is only one Ninja present, all the system's Ninjutsu is concentrated in him, making him invincible. When there is a whole army of them, each Ninja only gets a small share of the Ninjutsu and we all know how that ends.
While driving to work this morning, I wondered why everything goes well up to a certain number of cars on the road. After that critical point they all begin to drive like drunken monkeys. Is this yet another conservation law or do we really need the proper amount of Ninjutsu to get to work?

You can always take profit of the Ninjitsu and run over the cars.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

That's why I take my bike as much as possible 
Of course I only have a 5,6 km commute

I'd walk if I only had that far to go. I don't get too much choice with my commute: I can't drive (and wouldn't drive to work even if I could, the route is Hellishly congested) and cycling to where I work would require a far, far braver man than myself.
As such, it's a train with some walking at either end - which would be nice if the train were of adequate size and prone to turning up occasionally (sadly, it's neither) but at least I get to read stuff on the way, so the time isn't completely wasted.

True enough 
Will check the local parking regulations and see if there's a handy loophole.

I just took a look and found one which I could build and fly myself.[^]

That looks like a lot of fun in a (probably) incredibly expensive kind of way.

It depends. I'm still building my Huey, which is half the size of this one here. I already had the helicopter, an older T-Rex 450[^], which I got second hand for about 150 bucks. The fuselage[^] cost only 100, but it did not have very much detail.
So I have spent a good number of hours on installing the helicopter and adding all kinds of details, like one or another antenna, the tail bar, hatches and panels, rivets and 3D printed weapons. And of course painting it once the details are all done.
In the end it's supposed to look like this one[^] and use this model kit[^] as a reference.

Then you get a video.[^].
It's the same as mine, but if you look at it closely, you will see why I want more detail and did not just paint it.

You should check out Adam Savage's videos on YouTube. He uses some cool, relatively simple paint "tricks" to get much more detail and realism in his models and replicas. This is the same guy from Myth Busters, but doing what he loves.

I will do that. There are many ways to get a more realistic appearance. The model should look as if it comes from a jungle war, not clean and polished. The 'dirt' or 'bleached' paint only looks like a sloppy paint job on a smooth surface. You need all kinds of surface details, like panels or rows of rivets that break up the surfaces and give the 'spotty' paint job some structure.
My internet connection is a little slow right now, so I can't watch the videos right now. Are they more about painting or modelling the details?

He's a Hollywood prop maker, one of the vids you'd likely be most interested in is this one with Aaron Douglas where they build plastic models, although there are many more with full size props.

If you can get your hands on one. Mine has the big advantage of being available for a reasonable price in eastern countries.

Anyone who rides a bike in traffic is a delusional, suicidal hipster. My wife is a nurse at a hospital and they get 3 to 4 broken bike riders a week to try to fix. and that's just the ones that survive...
Of course living in New Orleans, where the streets are narrow and in bad condition, the lost tourists are plentiful, and the locals all drive like maniacs may be skewing my beliefs...

I think it's similar to a committee: "the average IQ of a collection of drivers (a committee) is equal to the lowest IQ of a participant divided by the number of participants."
I came to this conclusion many years ago, when I was riding motorcycles in the rush hour, and have seen no reason to modify it. Indeed, I added a corollary: "If you can think of six bloody stupid things for a driver (or a committee) to do in a crisis, he (they) will think of something even stupider, and immediately do it."
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
