  1. There's dozens of VSTi that I use to get spacey ambient effects

    a freeware favourite of mine is STS-11. Though the numbers have changed, and I have a couple different iterations of it. It's apparently at 33 right now, haha. http://www.kvraudio.com/get.php?mode=show&id=1597 so I need to get the new version myself.

    there's even a lazy button. I've used it for both texture and leads in the past and present. Sounds extremely Metroid Prime-esque

  2. Holy shit the ninja salvagers lately. Every mission I've run in the past week has had like 999999999999999 salvaging nanofag kestrels in it, and all they do is just steal shit and warp out. At least my corp mans up and if the mission runner shoots one of us, 10 logistics ships warp in and we kill the raven and whatever else happens to shoot :D Some of the Raven Navy Issues drop quite a bit of uhh... "special items" as well.

    One of my corpmates convinced a guy to eject from his Golem a couple weeks back. Thanks for the free Golem, whoever that was!

    Man, tonight though, I warped into a big group. There was a Rokh, Raven, and Ishtar running a sansha mission, so I stole their shit and they shot me. I got the ishtar no problem, but for some reason no matter what I did I couldn't break the fucking Rokh. I even switched into a raven and couldn't break his shield past like 90%. Ridiculous. I'm training for torps right now. At least I got away with no losses, unlike that time I warped into 2 CNRs, a Raven, and an Orca with my Hurricane.... yeah, oww.

    Still, fuck yeah, high-sec piracy

    So whatchall been doing? I've not seen Schwaltzvald or Ellywu on in a while. Shame on you guys :V

  3. I'm way more torn over the fact that people consider Oshii one of the big names in anime movie making, because his movies have since fallen into "Oshii-isms" with his profuse love for cigarettes and Basset Hounds.

    Oddly enough, I just finished WXIII [the third Patlabor movie] and yes, there's lots of cigarettes, haha.

    I'm confused though - it really had nothing to do with Patlabor except that the original cast showed up as like, extras. And there's no real point to them being there, the patlabors themselves don't even show up until the movie's almost over. Still, I liked the old detective from the series and other movies, it was cool they made a movie for him :3 but someone seeing this movie without knowing the connection to Patlabor would be like "lol wut"

  4. In my opinion, Standalone Complex is better than the Mamoru Oshii interpretations of the manga, it's also a more accurate translation from Shirow's manga to TV [and the one SAC movie, Solid State Society, which is amazing]. However, they're both so different that they might as well be different stories and characters entirely. The Major, for example, has an entirely different personality in the Oshii films, which in general are much more slowly paced and philosophical, and require that the viewer has some sort of brain with an actual attention span used while watching [typical Oshii]. However, the TV adaptation, directed by Kenji Kamiyama, is much more focused on being sexy cool action, which it does extremely well. You're doing yourself a disservice by not watching both, really. You should probably also read the manga, which is probably available in the Netherlands for you to buy [or whatever else]

  5. So, any chance of getting an OCR group hotel room together so a cheapass like me can go?

    I seriously doubt there's a hotel available within the city

    the sheraton next door is most likely overfilled already :P

    also: wish larry would post some fucking info still
