many thanks!

Yeah it’s pretty weird how a lot of actors are cast to play russians, except people of actual russian background. I wonder why that is, holdover from cold war sentiment? or are there just too few Russian actors in hollywood?

Few things frustrate in the same way as technical difficulties, so I hope you don’t have to suffer them for long. Here’s to hoping you’re fully on your digital feet again shortly!

Gulden Draak (spelling?)

You are correct :)

Joost mag het weten.

While it is possible for others who do not speak the language to be sufficiently fooled into believing he spoke it fluently, it would be really weird if a university lecturer would give lectures in a nonexistent language without anyone commenting on it.

The zen coin flip was the first thing I thought of when reading OP’s post.

Like you states, it does not replace the act of choosing.

But you can gauge by your own reaction to the result of the coin flip, which option you think deep down is the best.

Thanks I’ll give it a try!

Used to play a lot of RTS, both single and multiplayer. The last one I bought was the new AoE game. It did scratch a bit of the itch, but on the whole was a letdown. Before that it was Iron Harvest, which was visually pleasing but clunky. I am still looking for an RTS I can really get lost in.

Any recommendations?

You might like the game tyranny. Just finished playing it and it was quite enjoyable.

Sounds great, I will give it a try

How are the red potatoes with regard to taste? Are they sweeter or about the same as general brown potatoes?

Which seasoning would you generally use?

Ooh, I have my own version of this:

Ingredients:

4 large Crumbly potatoes

1 Onion (large)

2 Eggs (large)

Grated cheese (preferably Gouda)

Herbs: Salt, pepper, oregano, paprika powder.

Cut the potatoes in equal sizes cubes, Par-boil the cubes.

Then put them in a large frying pan with lots of butter, bake until browning\Maillard starts.

Then throw in the onions, fruiting them, then add the two beaten eggs.

Add the cheese on top, with the salt, pepper and herbs.

Put the lid on, let it settle on low heat for ten minutes.

Great hangover food.

Do you mean Dutch kwark or German ?

Another easy auto-battler would be Super auto pets. Easy to play on short breaks.

That’s a heavy thing to experience. Thanks for sharing. I could see why these experiences would lead you to return, in any case it’s a good thing that you are still here.

Thanks for the reply. I do wonder about the miracle though it might be pretty personal.

People find it weird when I say I actually like doing the dishes by hand. Good to see I’m not alone.

Interesting, what made you go back to the faith you were raised in?
