Gravity's Rainbow 1 2

Someone recommended this to me after I mentioned that I didn't know what to read and liked Infinite Jest/DFW. I'm looking for some motivation to continue or maybe get some people's opinions on it, I like the writing but it's not engrossing me. Threads like this are horrible and people shouldn't whine about reading something and looking for motivation but here it is...fuck.

So it's codename is the Nintendo 3DS which might be changed later, but it uses dual cameras to produce stereo 3D without glasses. Hopefully it has a more powerful graphics processor this time. http://kotaku.com/5499784/what-we-know-and-think-we-know-about-the-nintendo-3ds

I work in IT support and naturally in the city you encounter some fucking dickheads from time to time, but this complete cunt is really pissing me off right now. Here's the basic story - Last Friday I was doing some work at a clients office waiting for somebody who was in a meeting there so he could open his office down the road and I could get on with some server work. In the middle of looking at an issue on someones PC he comes out of the meeting and says he's going to open his office and asks if I could come over pretty quickly. I say yes and finish up what I was in the middle of doing, he leaves and literally two minutes later as I'm about to walk out of the build…

Yep, that's him. Thing have gone a bit quiet lately for Booker, but he seems like the sort of character that would suit fame. Maybe even his own rags to riches story.

A friend is throwing a sort of buffet type party where everyone brings one or two dishes, everything's put out and the host provides drinks. I've already decided on making sticky toffee pudding, inspired by an earlier thread on WATMM. But I'd like to also do something savory (I don't like this word) and would like some suggestions! Preferably something a bit out of the ordinary, most of the people there won't be too easily impressed. BTW I live in the Netherlands, so please take into consideration that maybe I won't have access to certain region specific ingredients...but on the other hand stuff that can be ordered online would be okay so that only leaves out region …

ive been reading some articles about different video game software available. it doesnt look all that difficult really. its something id like to kind of get into one day. what im wondering is, how much money am i looking to spend, to hire a small team of programmers to make a wicked video game for me? i have a pretty good idea i think, and i wouldnt mind investing a little money into the project, if the game turned out the way i want it. i might even be able to try to market the game and make a little money, but well cross that bridge when we come to it so graphics wise, id like it to look pretty good, obviously. but what i mean is, i dont want it to look like shit. i…

What's up peeps? This friday I decided to get jiggy with it. I started taking double shots of Absolut around 20:00 hours. Once I could barely see straight, I downed half a remeron. I think I remember throwing a xanax in there for some spice. I actually 'won' that round as I regained consciousness the next day at 18:30 hours. Let's hear about your most elegant chemical cocktails and any experiences they brought about.

alright here it is, the list (in mostly alphabetical order) of Most IDM Thing candidates pulled straight from the brainstorming thread. take some time to scan over the list and vote for anything that jumps out at you as a particulary IDM thing. if you're not familiar with it, then maybe google it if you have time (i did this for a few things and was blown away by their IDMness). vote for as many or as few as you like. the top 64 will be the teams that play in the tournament, and the seeding will be determined according to number of votes for a particular thing. here we go!

So the very first hints of pollen are in the air and your sinuses begin to lubricate. Spring is springing, March Madness has opened its delicate petals juuuuust ever-so-slightly, and it's time to do what everyone everywhere on the planet does every year at this time: Determine the MOST IDM THING!! Yes!! The games are right around the corner but first we must pluck the field of competitors from the breadth and depth of our collective minds. It's the 4th annual "What is the Most IDM Thing" Tournament! In 2009 it was Antarctica and its vast icy glory! in 2008, Black Holes usurped the competition! 2007 grew a big nasty Beard!! What will be the last IDM thing stand…

squarepusher Are there closet IDM fans? 1 2 3

I wonder if there's some regular Joe out there that works accounting at a local insurance firm, got a wife and kids, average size home, drives a BMW 3 series (not the M he couldn't afford the M). What if he likes IDM but he thinks it's too weird and he doesn't want anyone else to know so when he's on his way home from work he pops in some Squarepusher but when he's taking his buddies out for a few drinks he puts on the local pop station so his friends don't think he's strange.
