I would look at that, but I bounced off VIM hard, so probably not for me.

the death of Atom

I'm still in mourning.

I cheated and looked up a map of Europe, and that country is named "Russia". Haha!

Nothing, but it's the only choice for deodorant that they carry in most major chain stores.

Try telling that to the 5-20% of the guys at my gym in Korea who are absolutely ripe. The problem with having most of your population not have major BO is that those that do generally have trouble dealing with it.

Not anymore. At least if you don't mind Nivea.

Yeah, I might get back to it sometime. It is a mish-mash of so many video game tropes I love. It was just one particular instance where I forced myself through a dungeon as fast as I could, got frustrated with the boss and died a couple of times, finally made it, and wasn't fast enough to beat the NPC that just completely ticked me off and made me put it down. Those monk trial things really tested my patience for a bit there, too.

Long, long puzzle dungeons that encourage you to race against the NPCs. I hated that mechanic so much, I never finished the game.

Synthesizers, too.

What's the opposite of brain drain?

Often, all this music software is used in solitude

Beethoven composed in solitude, too.

Yes, there's something about a live performance that can't exactly be reproduced jamming with yourself in your bedroom, but that doesn't mean that great music can't come out of both processes.

Beato is definitely channeling a little "git offa mah lawwn!" vibes. The reason we don't get any more Led Zeppelins or Pink Floyds or whichever brand of classic rock he worships at the altar of isn't because there aren't talented musicians making music. It's because the circumstances that those artists thrived under no longer exist, and likely never will again.

They died well before mobile formatting was a concern. I suppose other aspect ratios were getting more popular then. That and the security issues the other poster mentioned probably contributed.
