They finished Renegades.. For a non-studio backed production, I thought it was pretty good. Unless Star Trek 3 turns out to be amazing, I prefer to see more of this. Might get the blu-ray at some point for support.

You can probably add another month to that. I just added him to my order of Cordelia. More pics: http://mikatan.goodsmile.info/en/2015/09/29/nendoroid-marth-new-mystery-of-the-emblem-edition/ edit: Also, I wish they'd let you buy the star catalog stuff with money. The few stars I had left expired some time ago.. I have 50 left.

This topic made me think I should use Spotify more, and perhaps have a go at a collaborative playlist, but then I vaguely recalled there already existing such a playlist.. Hence the bump. How can I open this playlist in the desktop client? Or: should I create a new one? Unfortunately, not everyone on the first page posts regularly (or at all) anymore, and I think I prefer 1 track per member. And I'd like to keep track of all the entries in a list on the forum.. It may also be fun to force people to change their track regularly, say, once a month. What do you people think?

Updated the list. Went to a Japanese film festival last weekend. Of the "normal" films I can recommend Inside out, Ant-man, Mission: impossible, Dope and Paper towns. Stay away from American ultra and The visit. I can't recommend The maze runner as a stand-alone film, it actually lacks a satisfying climax, though people who are interested in the film will likely have seen the first one, and will likely see the last one. The action was pretty good though. Of the Japanese films I can recommend Our little sister, which played at Cannes recently, and is a feel-good film about a trio of sisters who take care of their newly found half-sister. I can also recommend Kakekomi, a costume drama set in the 19th century, about women who take shelter at a temple so they can divorce their husbands. Oh and Deadman inferno, a guilty pleasure action-comedy about yakuza versus zombies, nothing more, nothing less. But my absolute favourite of the festival was The case of Hana and Alice, an animated prequel to a film from 2004, a coming of age film of how 2 girls met. Adorable and very funny. Ryuzo and his 7 henchmen is the latest Takeshi Kitano, it was ok, but nothing special in my opinion. About a group of senior yakuza starting a gang again.

My knowledge is a bit rusty, it's been a while since I built my PC.. But in general I believe: - You don't want to mix sticks. That's why they're sold in packs of 2 or 3. - Speed is nice, but you probably won't notice the speed increase unless you're hardcore, but more memory will be a significant boost. I assume you've tried finding the same memorystick as the one you've already got, but couldn't find it.. I'd suggest simply getting a pair of 4GB memory sticks. I don't think it would actually hurt to mix them, but don't hold me to that, and it wouldn't be optimal in any case, so I'd just replace it with 2 new ones. That said though.. Go to the support site for your motherboard, and check for memory compatibility lists..

For those who have seen Man on the moon; the original clip of Andy Kaufman on David Letterman (interview starts at 3:20):

Which is making me jealous :P, but at least I'll see it soon enough. But hey, post something about the Toronto film festival will ya? A bit of Googling tells me that season 2 will be broadcast in the UK, but on More 4, instead of Channel 4. No dates given, but I suspect you won't have to wait that long either.
-
Season 2 will start on Canal+ on 29-09-2015, if you can get that. I have no idea about Channel 4. But I'm getting the French Blu-rays which will be released on 23-10-2015. (and for those who can't stand French.. You can watch the American remake, but I don't know anything about that).

i Just Don't See The Point In Capitalising Every Word In A Title. i Only Do That If It Would Get A CaPitaL Anyway.

If I was a TV junkie like I used to be, I would be all over this. Definitely holds my interest, but it's on my vast backlog. My brother has watched season 1, and I think he said it was disappointing, but only in the "didn't live up to the hype" kind of way, it was still good.
-
/facepalm Freedom of speech man!! Edit: Also, I'm an incredibly patient man (when it comes to things like releasedates), so I can wait until then. I have to wait longer for other stuff.. (Dreamfall, Tales from the Borderlands, and now Game of Thrones)
-
That's obvious.. The point is that as it stands, the scenes don't "do" anything.. They're meant to deliver some drama, but that's not what they're doing at all. I didn't feel anything when watching those scenes, and I'm not eagerly anticipating the conclusion of it.. So I don't see the point. Maybe the 2nd part will turn it all around, although I'm probably going to miss that episode, so I'll have to hear it from you guys.

I personally didn't like it.

Episode 5 coming 20 October

Yeah, it doesn't work for older sets, but personally, I'd buy new coins directly from the official mint. In your case, if you just want the quarters, I'd get the silver sets.. 32 dollars a year is doable. If I didn't have enough expensive hobbies already, I'd also collect coins, I look at the site of the Dutch mint every now and then.. I like shiny things. I have a silver guilder somewhere, and I never exchanged the old guilders I had left for euros. Ah, and I also have the original euro set, everyone got a set of all the (Dutch) coins when they were introduced. I also like the idea of getting some of those special euros, and then actually use them to pay for stuff.

It barely would be any better, it's another "bandaid" like you say, but it keeps the videos up until the next database overhaul, when you're ready to get rid of the tag completely. Though, personally, I don't mind if we "lose" all the old embedded videos, the data is still there, if people really want to watch old videos, they can still copy/paste that part after the youtube url. So as far as I'm concerned, you can just remove the tag without taking legacy videos into account.
-
Why not just get them from the source? http://catalog.usmint.gov/coins/proof-sets/?_ga=1.107565570.1611867672.1442345117

You want to preserve the functionality of the old videos using the HDYT tags. You were thinking of going through all the posts, and updating all the tags (if I understand correctly), but it may be simpler to simply change the functionality of the HDYT tags, so they behave exactly the same as regular tags. Then all the videos will show up in old posts, regardless of which tags they use, but you use only the regular tag for new posts going forward. If you really want to completely get rid of the HDYT tags, this obviously isn't an option.
-
Yeah, I've been wanting this too since a few weeks, after I removed Flash completely (again, and for the final time probably). The HDYT tags didn't work with the HTML player. Anyway, I did prefer the size of the HDYT tags, can the regular tags be updated to the size of that? As for legacy.. Can't you simply have the HDYT tags function exactly like the regular tags? This will fix most, if not all embedded videos, while still using just one tag going forward.

I had no clue this was a thing. Not going to buy it though.

Those are going to be great for real-life Monkey ball races..
