Who else can survive for years on eating their own foot-skin? :-P

Great pick!

So many quotes from Casablanca are part of our everyday culture… and AFAIK it is the first movie ever to feature a flashback in a flashback. Combined with the awesome cast of actors this is a masterpiece. :-)

One is not enough, and a lot of great movies where already named, still, some great movies are missing:

• Heat (Michael Mann) Every single time I see it, it is brilliant and I discover something new
• Jin Roh (The original animation movie), awesome atmosphere and only after the 2nd viewing one can really appreciate it
• Near Dark (1987) Why the hell did nobody ever produce something like this ever again?
• Miami Vice (Michael Mann), ‘Style over substance’, in a great way, although I have the shaky camera
• Seven Samurai
• Casablanca
• Strange Days
• Point Break
• XXX (Nobody understood that it was a parody back in the days :-P)
• What we do in the shadows
• Brazil
• Rocky
• Eternal Sunshine …
• The city of lost children
• Leon the professional
• Dolls
• The Killer (The original of course)
• The last unicorn
• Dark City
• The thing
• The Lost Boys
• Spirited Away
• Donnie Darko
• Rashomon
• Brother (2000)
• Parasite
• Hatsukoi (First Love)

… from the top of my mind. :-P

FreeCiv is a classic and still fun. rogue and nethack are good, too.

• Another vote for “Slay the Spire”, have bought it for all platforms and wasted too much of my time
• Horizon Chase Turbo is a very good arcade racer
• Danmaku Unlimited 2 and Danmaku Unlimited 3 for bullet hell shmups

Not arcade style, but Final Fantasy I-VI pixel remasters are IMHO great on phones.

Because we are men/gals of culture! :-P Hadouken! ;-)

Nice, I love Yakuza, really very special in the world of gaming! :-)

• Street Fighter 2 Turbo (Arcade)
• Chrono Trigger (SNES)
• Contra (NES)
• Dark Souls
• Warcrat 3 TFT (non remaster)
• OpenXCom with X-COM data
• XCom
• Slay the Spire
• OlliOlli
• Mark of the Ninja
• Yakuza0
• Horizon Chase Turbo

(No order, might be not exactly 10 :-P)

Nah, didn’t mind the meme!

I totally accept that Eclipse doesn’t work for and life is too short to waste it on tooling.

In that sense, good luck with your current & future setups and happy coding! :-)

Eclipse has its share of problems (and outdated UI and workflows), still I’ll happily use it over IntelliJ w/o hesitation.

Funnily enough, a lot of other (Java)Senior developers who tried both are fine with Eclipse, too.

Besides the astroturfing from IDEA which is really annoying, Eclipse integrates far better with standard build tools and is our last descend Open Source IDE (Netbeans effectively being a zombie at this time).

IDEA is already pushing/forcing their own solutions/build tools/etc. to up sell their shit, once Eclipse is gone, there will be no alternative and IDEA/IntelliJ will start the entshittifaction…

People really forgot what a shit show were the 90s, paying lots of money for commercial IDEs.

Digital, unless I really want the book and it is only analog.

The analog form factor of books is IMHO much nicer, and I understand everyone who doesn’t like digital books.

Stil, for me going digital beats analog:

• Having books always in my pocket, I never wonder what to do if I have to wait somewhere
• Going for work/leisure travel, always fully stocked with interesting reading material
• Learning from books and making notes? Digital makes it far easier
• I mostly read English books for learning and in my country one has to pay a heavy surcharge for English books

I also have to say, Amazon really earned all the critic it gets, but their Kindle apps and physical devices are awesome. It is easy to buy DRM free books and read/sync them with Amazon kindle infrastructure (send to device etc.).

This, so much!

It really makes me angry, that there is no free dental hygiene training for children/teenagers.

I life in a comparatively rich society (Germany), but our retarded health care system pumps billions every year in preventable diseases (like most dental problems) and exactly zero in prophylaxes.

Fair and good question. I literally ask my dentist on every single visit the following points

• is my dental hygiene ok?
• do I damage my gums with my brushing?
• what can I improve in my dental hygiene?

The dentist always tells me it is okay and I cannot do more, than I am doing.

Thanks, good to hear, I am not the only one. :-)

I am sorry to read about your gum problems, fingers crossed it does not get worse!

I was stupid enough to believe the interview with a dentist a few month back in a reputable German newspaper. Now I feel dump for not doing my own research. Thanks for helping me out of ignorance!

Wait, so the summary states clearly, that a.) flossing is effective b.) mouth rinsing is more effective?!? It seems to good to be true, why does not every producer of mouth rinsing make advertisement with this? I also always ask my dentists about tips for dental hygiene, and none every recommend mouth rinsing. (Germany)

I also got the ‘brush after every contact with sugar’ thingy.

The common agreement nowadays seems to be twice a day and the points are very clear: before you go to bed and soon after getting up in the morning, to bring some fluid to the nasty bacteria, remove their food and plaque from your teeth.

Seriously, I have no idea how one could brush teeth in 2 minutes. I brush gently, use the simple swipe away from the gum technique and just work systematic chewing surfaces, inner surfaces, outer surfaces. Each part gets 2-3 swipes. I had a professional dental cleaner teach this technique to me, and she also told me that she couldn’t finish within 3 minutes. (Do not misunderstand me; I would happily get away with 2 minutes.) BTW flossing is another interesting topic, AFAIK there is no study which can show that flossing helps your teeth/gum. (I floss daily, but I just cannot understand why there is no study which supports this practice.)

Look at the shit Apple produces and understand it is not only a function of money.
