You will also want to make furniture and wood things for others. You will need somewhere for your early rev's to go when you do the update. Develop a "market" of wood lovers.

You are likely already looking at wood furniture and fixtures - your own an others' - with that eye:

"Hmmm. Is that a rising dovetail?"

"Looks real, but I think I see by the end grain mitre it's a mock dovetail! Wow!"

"Look at those tenons!"

"I'd plane and sand that bit there."

"Just a little work and that would be perfect."

"When I make my trestle table..."

From my own experience: I've found endless happiness in making and then giving pieces to appreciative souls who also love wood.

It's madness, but an ecstatic kindly species of the affliction.

Glad to see you've caught it.

Excellent! Fine work.

Well, you didn't listen to that little voice. ...Or to my previous warning.

Now, it's too late.

Recovery at this stage, especially given your life demographics, has a vanishingly small probability, less than meth or heroin. You either are or will be a woodworking addict. Probably latent genetic and psychological predisposition just waiting for proper exposure to manifest.

Welcome to the brotherhood (fellowship?) of wood.

Happy making!

I'm a software buy and I haven't inherited the love of woodworking from my father. I do try to appreciate woodworking when it's done by others though. This is easy to do live, when there's an actual completed piece of wooden furniture to look at and touch and smell and try how strong it is. It's more difficult on the internet, here or on http://woodgears.ca/ , for multiple reasons. The products are more impressive in real life than on photos and descriptions. Before the finished product, woodworking is done with all sorts of tricky processes with all kinds of tools, most of which I've never seen done live, and they're sort of hard to understand from descriptions. There's also some of this woodworker jargon describing the procedures and tools, and it's completely different in English: clearly I couldn't have learnt the English words from my father even if I had spent a lot of time with him to actually learn about the things they mean. Many of the words seem to have multiple meanings, even within woodworking, so when I read “The fingers I cut with”, I have to realize that (a) you didn't cut any fingers on your hand, and (b) you didn't cut with the fingers. And apparently, many of the tools or procedures have more than one English word, used by different people, or spelling differences like “vise” versus “vice”.

Sure, you can try, though it if it starts swapping it will get awfully slow. Probably you could run OK with just a single helper. It does require a 64 bit machine though.

Can I run Playfun with virtual memory? I have only 3GB of RAM and a dual core CPU, and I'd love to give it a try, because I'll be able to run it for like 40 hours straight.

Try lowercase "game". What error are you getting?

Thanks for letting me know, and yes it's okay with me! :)
Sadly I can't play cuz I only have iPhones, but maybe I can try it on a friend's.

Hey there. I used your song "An Interrogation" for my android game. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.NigelMNZ.MelodyRocket
I gave you credit in the description. Hopefully this is ok with you. Good work on the songs!

Well, I'm still readin' the comments, though I haven't done the somewhat loathsome task of getting escape to compile again on my windows machine, so it's hard to do new releases. Anything needing attention?

Ah, no, less Benny Hill, more Pink Panther (but also not that one)...

Is 11 years the mean waiting time? I wonder if we can get some prominent bathroom mushroom action again.

Also, your old post linked to an fvwm logos page for the word "hideous". I think I'm going to go cheer myself up with some 1990s linux screenshots.

PS, nice job on the logo, it looks great. I hope they eventually let you (or an AI coded by you) design the whole website.

I can't take any credit; that was MPA and I think he had at least one forgotten-by-me accomplice.

Hello! This is the only way I saw that I could get in touch with you. I am trying to unlock a font but I don't have a windows system. If I sent you the file could you convert it for me?! I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT! dhendric25@gmail.com
