Topicless thread

I remember back in my own lurker days, Fabian was a name I spotted in every nook and cranny of this site.  But apparently he left, leaving behind Pitkin and Linux-Tan in charge....  -v-

Too bad we can't put up Wanted posters of these people, just so they'd know we're looking for them.  ^__^

[Then again, if they left out of boredom or personal problems, doubt they'd come back to read it... ^^;]

I've taken leave of a few message boards over the years, usually due to a sudden change in ambience.  One board transformed into a collection of angry brats who'd choose a victim then attack relentlessly; and what with life being short, I decided to vacate that silly place.

Another board changed almost overnight, as soon as war-in-Iraq talk began in the weeks prior to the actual shooting war commencing.  The webmistress turned out to be a died-in-the-wool Shrubbery freak; and she got some of her loud-mouthed reactionary friends to join the board and attack anybody who didn't think Georgie Boy was a saint.  Sayonara!

Less-dramatic changes at message boards can send people off the pitch; and I sometimes wonder whether or not I've inadvertently angered or insulted this or that person, thus contributing to their prolonged absence.  Oh, well.

The Amiga-tan is still safe from those purist...thank god.


I didn't know Linux can be also installed on an Ipod. Thanks to my freind he told all about this and installed it on my iPod nano, although some of its functions are wierd...it is still fun to have a little Linux distro on my iPod nano. The funny thing is it looks like Ubuntu, not to mention that there is this thing called "Bootsplash".

BWAHAHA!!!! Reminds me of my horrid intermediary school days. ^__^
I'd say a few choice words for boards like those, but why waste my valuable breath.  -v-

Yep, nothing worse than being surrounded by war-hawkish armchair commandos.  Given they spent so much time on the web, I doubt hardly any of them would have chosen to enlist and die for Georgie n' Friends.

Scratch another off the list.  -v-

Well, remember what I told you before....  Ã,¯vÃ,¯
Can't really help it, just need to go with the flow....
Oh, and abide by the Golden Rule.  ^__^

Which reminds me, there are a couple of pics that could definitely use your votes.....  Ã,¬vÃ,¬

YO!  My friend Alfamille!
Wa-SSUUUUUUUP!  ^v^

Here's my latest and greatest creation to date:


Full size

80% purist resistant!  ^v^
And thanks to everyone's help, she may very well be in the Wiki article to stay!  ^v^

[Too bad she'll never be on the Japanese one, but that's fine by me.  Just makes our article all the more unique.  ^.^]

Fufufu.... "bootsplash"  ^v^
Actually, did post a link to IPod Linux on a different thread a few days ago, but seems you ran across it independently.
Tell me if Linux isn't truly the 'People's OS'?  ^v^

Q4(V) (seen during my short lurker stage, but not as much afterwards...)

It makes you wonder what happened to him. He disappeared before I joined. Of course, I feel it was my presence that drove away Panda. My constant posting and unusual comments probably drove her away. I think she enjoyed being on a small forum than the big one that our site became. We haven't seen much of her since...

I find it ironic that we did not find many WMD's in Iraq, but North Korea just detonated a nuclear weapon:

[Silentbob]

I figgered they'd end up doing it in the end.  Now they tighten their grip on their people and are a bigger threat to Japan (and other countries) than ever before.  I guess somebody shoulda disposed of the Kims a long time ago.

[brougeXP22]

true enough. North Korea is too dangerous to have those weapons. Even their fellow communist country, China, isn't even happy about them having nukes. if they don't stop soon, we'll be living through the third world war... ;014

China isn't exactly communist. They're a totalitarian democracy, which is an oxymoron. As for the nukes...
*starts putting food in fallout shelter*
Just remember, Bush had told us about the axis of evil with Iran, Iraq, Afganistan, and North Korea.
*gets hunting rifle*
I will defend my meager fallout shelter!

[brougeXP22]

Bush is a moron but he's right about Iran and North Korea. I think they desevere nuclear power because it's safe and effective but they don't need nukes. They are way to violent and aggressive to be trust with WMD's and things like that.

[C-Chan]

*evil laughter*

6 trillion dollars spent on defense still won't make them sleep easy at night?!  

Mwahahaha!!!  Now I know for sure I'm gonna be rich!!  ^V^

*starts raising investments in defense companies, oil companies, mercenary firms, overseas manufacturers, repossession agencies, private prisons, commodities and "miscellaneous"*

Who says Capitalism doesn't work?  `v'

*skips away happily*

[Q4(V)]

Iran are developing/enriching nuclear power right but they are being stop by USA, there are allowed to do it but they have to stop at a date. The US is tying to stop it for some unkonwn reason. So far Iran can't make weapon with it only power house and for helpping people that have cancer. i know tht the US isn't that east friendly and have at time stopped other country from helpping Iraq and Iran in the United Nations, right now i believe that the US and the UK are the biggest problems they create war for no reason and with out the UN backing.

err i'm back hello new and old lol how many are still

and C-Chan all i have to say to u in Tax man here .... hahhaha

[MisterCat]

Sure, we all's going to die at the hands of those Evil Axes from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea any minute now.  But we should never the less strive to...

REMAIN CALM

and

BE HAPPY!

Just follow the signs and everything will be all right.

My favorite nuclear-scare era is the early 1960s, replete as it was with the Berlin Crisis followed closely by the Cuban Missle Crisis.  Here, below, are two photographs showing President Kennedy's vacation-home fallout shelter ââ,¬â€ what's left of it, anyway.  It was built by the U.S. Navy's Construction Battalion (the Seabees) over a period of one week.





You, too, can have your very own fallout shelter!  Here's a link to a Portable Document File containing plans, lists of building materials and instructions:

Family Shelter Designs (1962) [2.64 megabytes]

(I'm sorry about the cheesy web-site advertisement contained on that document's first page, but nothing frees people from their money quite as effectively as does paranoia.)

When the Evil Axes drop the big one, we can all meet right here at the OS-TAN Forums then walk calmly to the communal fallout shelter whilst singing this 1965 song:

Everyone's Gone To the Moon [2.32 megabytes]

Artist:  Jonathan King
Composer:  Kenneth King

Streets full of people, all alone
Roads full of houses never home
Church full of singing out of tune
Everyone's gone to the moon

Eyes full of sorrow, never wet
Hands full of money, all in debt
Sun coming out in the middle of June
Everyone's gone to the moon

Long time ago
Life had begun
Everyone went to the sun

Hearts full of motors painted green
Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream
Arms that can only lift a spoon
Everyone's gone to the moon

Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon

;026

I'm here desu .-. Just been a bit busy and a bit down >.< So I'm sorry I haven't been able to help with the translation projects - but you guys seem to be doing OK ^^;

Q4, hmm.. I wonder where he is too. The Captain as well. (but I always worry when my boys in uniform suddenly go quiet >.< Darknight is in and out, so at least I don't have to tug the leash with him.

As for panda, ehhh. I can't answer honestly .-. and I don't wish to say something upsetting and possibly untrue.

Anyway.. I'm here.. but I really have to finish Souseiseki and Suiseiseki (and Suigintou.. and Ouran..) in two weeks ^^; So I'm quite busy. But I am reading the board. Thanks for asking about me, C-chan <3 Who's my piggy?? *cuddles*
