I see soldering in my near future:

At least it's not like fishing a loose bolt from uninsulated innards of a Chinese power supply, or finding a GPS chip glued to the board instead of being soldered.

Now currently sitting in an airport. 1 more hour till I board. Going to Virginia.

I should have probably brought my Orbiter install....

Reading about triboluminescence:
"In 1953, Soviet scientists first observed that unpeeling a roll of tape in a vacuum produced X-rays".

I wonder if it was an intentional experiment, or someone had lousily duct taped something in a vacuum chamber and a sensor happened to be nearby when it tore off...

Write new history books, it's not Angus MacGyver but Wladimir Ivanovich who made a vacuum by using a bottle and a vacuum cleaner, thus unpeeling a roll of tape, creating enough X-Rays to loosen his bonds and escaping from HIT custody.:uhh:

Lucky you. The government took away all my scholarships because they believed I had a money tree growing in my back yard, and I couldn't convince them otherwise, so I had to forgo college.

I lost my minimal government support after half a year, because my brother got a stipend of the local car company and thus, had been considered as too rich to get such support.

Bad news: Having to work exponentially increasing hours (in the end at the legal limit) to pay the tuition fees.

Good news: After leaving university, I only had to repay less than €500 with the sentence "We expect you to repay this in quarter year rates, but you can also choose to repay it all at once" - to describe the order of magnitude: I had to pay less for the government education subsidies I received in my university career than for 6 months of studies...which was in the end near 800 € per half year - yes, that is still cheap compared to Anglosaxon countries, but then we still have no properly working loans and only 2% of all students receive stipends in Germany. Earning enough as student to pay almost €150 per month is extremely hard.

Thats a shame

I was lucky I got into co-op at my university. I wouldnt have a chance in hell of ever finishing my degree without making back some of the costs through it.

Just thought I had to share this with everyone else. Was watching a few videos on youtube when I came across a comment by a moon hoaxer. He started off with the usual gibberish about the moon landing, then went off on a unique tangent:

He thinks that the government includes Fluoride in toothpaste in order to brainwash us

:shifty: I never thought trident was watching me...

Communistic world government?
Weird, we here thought the world government was capitalistic. :idk:

It's always an Us and Them situation. I can't say for sure that I wouldn't be a communism-fearing, Russia-hating kind of guy in those times. The U.S. government has been very persuassive when it comes to xenophobia. There is some shocking propaganda in the history of any world power.

I am still highly critical of the promises of both capitalism and communism, and I am just German...

An evening of departures...

Not only did German actor Dirk Bach leave the world at mere 51 years, Nightwish also annouced that they are parting with Anette. :dry:

:blink: That's sad news. I kinda like them with Anette more than with Tarja. It's their choice however. I just hope we won't hear "revenge song" this time.

What I find worse, Imaginerium was their best album so far in my eyes, her voice was finally fitting into the sound of the band and the music was something impossible with Tarjas voice. What comes next? another average album with a new singer?
