[id="quote"]quote: What do you remember about them that's making you search this long and far? Actually, Flowercat was just trying to help me out! I'm a collector of the hockey, baseball, space etc. coins that were inserted as premiums into potato chips as well as jelly desserts in the early and mid sixties which has set me to wondering what became of various chip companies! With respect to Mad Hatter, I recall it being a relatively uncommon brand in London that disappeared in the early sixties. The graphics on the bag were excellent but the chips weren't very good at all despite the fact that an "exotic" bacon and hickory flavour was available. Evidently the chips were sold in other Ontario locales as well and one fellow thinks that the Mad Hatter Chip company was based in the Maritimes and could have been a McCain venture. I'm also trying to learn what became of the Krun-Chee Potato Chip company that had operations in Chicago, Detroit and Windsor, Ontario up until sometime in the sixties. Was Krun-Chee simply a Gordons brand name? But what happened to Gordons? The Hunters Potato Chip company was based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This company also disappeared in the sixties. Did Nalleys acquire Hunters? The Nalleys Chip company was acquired by its Canadian managers in the mid nineties but they closed the operations down and sold the trademarks a couple of years ago. The Old Dutch company produces Nalleys snack foods under a licencing agreement these days. Finally, what happened to Schulers Potato Chips which sold chips in the northeastern part of the U.S. and in the province of Quebec in the sixties?
CCinNJ I recall a good salt & pepper chip in Canada...but I can't remember the brand.
CCinNJ Thank you Hepcat! Salty snacks to go with the beloved Coffee Crisp!
roddyqHi,I have just joined this site after seeing photos of sets and partial 1960's potato chip etc. coin sets that collectors have displayed. It is good to read the information Hepcat has shared especially the space orbits and space magic coins.I would like to attach some photos of my sets and partial sets and can't seem to be able too when pressing attach images??roddyq

Oceania 2013 European Cruises on Sale Nowby Paul Motter | 03.08.12
In my experience there are no finer vessels than the Oceania Marina and Riviera. Europe 2013 cruises just went on sale yesterday with 2 for 1 fares and free air.
The décor of Oceania Marina is not a ship that relies on traditional clichés of luxury, it is a ship that took chances and succeeded. The décor is daringly modern yet still accommodating. It is the best cruise ship at sea, unequaled, at least until her sister ship, Riviera, arrives in May, 2012. But by far, the best thing about Oceania Marina is the cuisine.
There are five restaurants onboard, but even just a visit to the buffet will have you wondering how any ship can be so different. How many cruise ships make their own pasta in front of the guests, kneading the dough, in red green and white, before putting it through the various machines to create linguini, capellini and tortellini?
But when you add the dining in the specialty restaurants Jacques and Red Ginger (no additional cover charge), and when you see the Bon Appétit Culinary Arts Center where every passenger actually gets her own full workstation with sink, stove, cutting board and utensils, you realize you are on a vessel that goes above and beyond the ordinary in every sense.
2013 Summer Bookings Now Available
Oceania just announced its 2013 itineraries for these two new extraordinary ships - which will undoubtedly book up early, so right now the prices are likely as low as they will ever be. Bookings just opened yesterday, March 7th for voyages from April through September, 2013.
Oceania is offering two-for-one cruise fares and free air transportation to the cruise ship in Europe for all summer 2013 voyages booked by June 30, 2012. This equals a bonus savings of up to $3,500 per stateroom.
As these cruises fill up, and they will do so quickly, the fares will undoubtedly go higher. So we suggest for anyone even thinking about trying out these beautiful new vessels that you should put a deposit down right away. And here is especially good new; bookings made by March 31, 2012 qualify for two-for-one deposits.
Marina and Riviera, as well as one of the older and smaller Oceania ships, Nautica, will be deployed in Europe in 2013. The line is changing the focus towards new itineraries and offering more days at sea, especially important on these newer ships with so much more onboard enrichment to enjoy during the cruise.
Oceania is (remarkably) not generally considered to be in the luxury category, although I prefer these ships to some luxury cruise lines I have taken, so they are not "all-inclusive" like most luxury cruise lines. However, Oceania recently introduced beverage packages, priced from $29.95 per guest, per day, and new shore excursion options with savings up to 40 percent for an unlimited package of tours. Compare this to Celebrity Cruises' drink package of $45 per day, or $54 for premium brands.
Mediterranean & Black Sea
Riviera, which makes her debut in Europe in May 2012, returns in 2013 to explore the Western and Eastern Mediterranean with new 7-, 10- and 12-day cruises, from Barcelona to Istanbul. Featured itineraries include the 10-day Italian Escapade (July 3 and August 28, 2013) from Rome (Civitavecchia) to Venice with stops in Florence (Livorno), Sorrento and Amalfi along the Amalfi coast, Taormina (Sicily), Corfu, Montenegro and Dubrovnik (Croatia) and a full day at sea before reaching Venice for an overnight stay.
Marina offers a new 10-day Treasures of the Ancients itinerary, that sails round-trip from Barcelona (November 10) calling at Valencia and Palma de Mallorca in Spain; Algiers, a new port for Oceania Cruises; Palermo, Rome (Civitavecchia) and Florence (Livorno), Italy; Monte Carlo and Provence (Marseille).
Northern Europe & Baltic Capitals
Marina and Nautica venture throughout Scandinavia and the Baltic, including a visit to the Polar Ice Barrier. Marina's Baltic Odyssey, a new 10-day itinerary from Stockholm to Copenhagen with visits to Helsinki, St. Petersburg (three full days), Tallinn, Gdansk, and Berlin, departs June 25, July 5 and September 3, with a special Oceania Club Reunion Cruise on August 24.
On July 4, Nautica will offer an 18-day Voyage of the Midnight Sun from London to Copenhagen visiting 12 ports in Norway with overnight stops in Honninsvag (North Cape) and four sea days. Nautica's July 22 Medieval Marvels, a 10-day cruise from Copenhagen to Stockhom, features the new port of Klaipeda, Lithuania, a picturesque seaside city at the mouth of the Dange River and Baltic Sea.
Continental Europe in Grand Style
Rounding out the European itineraries, Marina and Nautica feature 7-, 10- and 12-day itineraries that capture "the best of the best" ports of call. "Cultural Connoisseur" - which departs September 27 - on Marina is a 12-day voyage from London to Barcelona, and on June 6, European Treasures on Nautica is a 14-day cruise from Rome to London.

In Memory of...
Andrew hansen
aka The Private Man
The 21 Convention 2017 Ten Year Anniversary special event is dedicated to the memory, life, and work of Andrew Hansen a.k.a The Private Man, an alumni speaker of The 21 Convention.
A message from Anthony Dream Johnson...
I'm sad to report that April 3rd 2017, Andrew Hansen a.k.a The Private Man – an alumni speaker of The 21 Convention and well known blogger in the manosphere – died from complications with cancer. As indicated in his presentation at The 21 Convention 2016 of Miami Florida, this did not come as a surprise, although the end – or as Andrew jokingly referred to it, "a scheduling issue" – did come sooner than otherwise hoped.
The last time I saw Andrew was over a long afternoon conversation at his girlfriend's home in South Florida, March 20th 2017. He appeared to be in good spirits given the situation. We discussed the viral success of his 21C talk, his appearance on FreedDomainRadio, women, red pill, the history of dating, and various other topics.
The last thing he ever said to me was "Make sure I live forever." – a reference to his late in life videos produced at The 21 Convention.
Andrew had confirmed to speak at The 21 Convention 2017 Ten Year anniversary event to be held later this year in Florida. In January of 2017 it became obvious he wasn't going to make it under any circumstances. I soon after decided to dedicate this year's event to him, and asked his permission for doing so. He accepted.
At the event we will be dedicating time and attention to Andrew's memory with speakers who knew him.

Socrates' Intellectual Party
Compliments of the Soc
A private party at Socrates' "big white box" - yet another opportunity to engage face to face with the speakers, staff, volunteers, and fellow attendees of The 21 Convention.
This was the absolute highlight of our Orlando 2016 live event.
Party subject to change, hosted by 21C alumni keynote speaker Socrates.
Orlando, Florida, USA
21 Studios was founded in Orlando Florida, 2006, by then 17 year old UCF student Anthony Johnson. In 2007 the first "21 event" was held, the Under 21 Convention 2007. Since then 21 Convention live events have been held a total of 13 times, across 4 countries, 2 states, 7 cities, and 3 continents.
Our ten year anniversary is being held in Orlando due to it's founding status, our extensive 6x event history in Orlando, as well as it's vibrant night life and weather.
Our CEO also lives in Orlando, allowing even more time and attention to go into building the ultimate 21 Convention event, with less travel and logistical complications to manage.
Orlando is also one of the top convention locations in the world, in addition to having the largest university in the United States.
Meet beautiful women in Orlando!
And ride giant wine bottles!
The 21 Convention venue itself (revealed to ticket holders) has easy access to lots of restaurants, bars, and hotels right nearby + within the venue itself. Everything you need will be right where the conference is!
Orlando is also ride-share friendly with Uber and Lyft, so you won't need to rent a vehicle or worry about expensive taxi-fares (which are usually sky high in Florida).

WHAT Men Are SAYING
The Mountain speaks...
"Since attending The 21 Convention, I've been stuck in a positive feedback loop of smiling at and talking to strangers. I call it a positive feedback loop because every time I do it, it makes me happy, which makes them happy, which makes me happier, which makes me more inclined to do it again.
This positive feedback loop I'm in has everything to do with how Founder & CEO Anthony Dream Johnson structured the event. He deliberately caps the total number of attendees at a much smaller number than 99% of all other conventions, which makes the 21 Convention more intimate than 99% of all other conventions. At any other convention, the speakers would be bombarded with a line of people and you can ask them maybe 2 questions without being inconsiderate of everyone else's time.
But at The 21 Convention, you can actually get to know the speakers and they can get to know you. And, I felt like the speakers WANTED to get to know you. Most of them encouraged us to add them on Facebook and everything.
You also have a chance to get to know your fellow attendees very well. This is amazing because if they aren't already badasses, they are very well on their way. The self-selection it requires to set aside the money, time, effort, and follow-through puts you shoulder to shoulder with guys who are serious about becoming the best they can be. Do you want to be the best you can be? Then come on out to the next 21 Convention! "

Benny Sieu/USA Today Sports
25. Jordy Nelson
Nelson finished 11th in scoring among wide receivers with 179.4 fantasy points, and that was without Aaron Rodgers under center for almost eight full games. Nelson's a safe bet to finish among the top 10 wideouts in 2014.
Don Wright/Associated Press
24. Antonio Brown
As the No. 1 option in Pittsburgh's passing attack, Brown did not disappoint last season. He set career highs in receptions (110), receiving yards (1,499) and touchdowns (eight) for a total of 198.9 fantasy points and an seventh place finish at his position. He'll look to replicate those totals this season.
Nick Wass/Associated Press
23. Alfred Morris
To call Morris' sophomore campaign a slump or disappointment would be flat wrong. The rusher managed 1,275 yards and scored seven times -- good enough for a 15th place finish among running backs. Morris is one of the safest names to target as an RB2 with RB1 upside.
Frank Franklin II/Associated Press
22. Le'Veon Bell
Despite missing the first three games of the season as he recovered from offseason injuries, Bell still managed to finish 14th in fantasy scoring among running backs. He'll now be splitting some time with LeGarrette Blount, but Bell will be the workhorse for the Steelers offense.
Phelan M. Ebenhack/Associated Press
21. Doug Martin
Martin lost most of his season to a shoulder injury, but didn't look like the running back fantasy owners fell in love with in 2012 prior to going down. Martin will be motivated in 2014, and figures to get the lion's share of the carries in Tampa Bay's backfield.
Brynn Anderson/Associated Press
20. Julio Jones
Atlanta's premier pass-catcher was on pace for over 1,800 receiving yards before he rebroke a bone in his foot in Week 5. Now fully healthy, he's a near lock to finish in the top 10 scoring fantasy wideouts once again.
Scott Boehm/Associated Press
19. Brandon Marshall
Coming off of back-to-back top-five fantasy finishes among wide receivers, Marshall is in the prime of his career, is working with a quarterback he trusts and in an offense that will allow him to put up monster numbers once again. He should never make it out of the second round in fantasy drafts.
Al Behrman/Associated Press
18. A.J. Green
Green has basically been a lock as a WR1 since he entered the league as a rookie. He's posted better than 1,000 receiving yards every season, and has had 11 touchdowns in each of the last two years. Even with pass-happy offensive coordinator Jay Gruden out of the picture, Green will deliver again in 2014.
Pat Sullivan/Associated Press
17. Arian Foster
The long-time titan of fantasy running backs suffered a setback last season when injuries finally caught up to him. If Foster can stay healthy, he'll once again be the centerpiece of the Texans attack and could return to fantasy glory.
G. Newman Lowrance/Associated Press
16. Aaron Rodgers
Had he not missed seven games last season with a broken collarbone, Rodgers most certainly would have finished near the top of the quarterbacks in fantasy scoring. He and his offense are fully healthy for 2014, which means big numbers shouldn't be far away.
Bill Haber/Associated Press
15. Drew Brees
Not only is Brees the only quarterback in NFL history to throw for over 5,000 yards multiple times, but he's done it three years in a row. His offense is loaded with weapons new (Brandin Cooks) and old (Jimmy Graham) and he'll once again be one of the top scoring quarterbacks in fantasy.
Ben Margot/Associated Press
14. Demaryius Thomas
The top option in the top offense with the top quarterback in the NFL is a no-brainer as the No. 3 wideout in fantasy. Thomas has had more than 1,400 receiving yards in in back-to-back seasons, and figures to approach that number again in 2014.
Matt Strasen/Associated Press
13. Dez Bryant
Bryant has posted consecutive seasons with 12-plus touchdowns and 1,200-plus yards and shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, he looks even better so far this preseason. The Dallas defense is a mess, and the Cowboys will need to score points to win games in 2014. Plenty of those points will come at the hands of Bryant.
Tony Tribble/Associated Press
12. Giovani Bernard
Even though he received just north of 200 touches, Bernard was able to make the most of those and turned them into 166.9 fantasy points, good enough for a 16th place finish among running backs. His new offensive coordinator Hue Jackson loves to run the football and Bernard is without a doubt the top option in the backfield. He has a chance for a true breakout season in 2014.
Tim Heitman/USA Today Sports
11. DeMarco Murray
Murray offers the Cowboys (and fantasy owners) a dangerous dual threat, as he gashed teams on the ground (1,121 yards) and through the air (350 yards) in 2013. Murray figures to play an even bigger role for Dallas this season, even if head coach Jason Garrett is tossing around that "committee" word.
Chris Schneider/Associated Press
10. Montee Ball
After struggling at the start of his rookie campaign, Ball came on strong at the end of the season. He's so high on this list primarily because he has Peyton Manning handing him the football. Despite an offseason appendectomy, Ball should be racking up fantasy points as soon as the regular season arrives.
Marcio Jose Sanchez/Associated Press
9. Peyton Manning
Last season's fantasy scoring champ might have a tough time replicating his totals from last year, but won't have any trouble scoring oodles of fantasy points. Even if Manning had thrown 13 fewer touchdowns last season, he still would have led all quarterbacks in scoring. His offense is still stacked with talent and he'll be motivated in 2014.
Bill Haber/Associated Press
8. Jimmy Graham
The undisputed king of the tight ends enters 2014 with a new contract and a fully healthy body. Graham endured numerous injuries last season yet still managed to lead all tight ends in scoring with 217.5 points. His dominance is so severe that the second highest scoring tight end was 56.5 points behind him (Vernon Davis).
Carlos Osorio/Associated Press
7. Calvin Johnson
What else needs to be said about Megatron? He's finished among the top three scoring fantasy wide receivers for three years in a row. The addition of Golden Tate as the No. 2 option behind Johnson in Detroit makes him that much safer as the top wide receiver in fantasy, as teams won't be able to double cover him every play.
Ted S. Warren/Associated Press
6. Marshawn Lynch
"Beast Mode" scared fantasy owners this offseason with his training camp holdout, but he returned in time to put those fears to rest. Lynch has endured an immense workload over the last three seasons, but we're not ready to start doubting him yet. Fantasy owners shouldn't either.
Scott Kane/Associated Press
5. Eddie Lacy
Lacy burst onto the scene last season, leading all rookies in rushing yards, touchdowns and fantasy points. And he managed this despite facing frequent eight-man fronts while Rodgers was sidelined with his collarbone injury. Lacy could be in line for an even bigger fantasy season as he becomes more of a focal point in the passing attack in the Packers up-tempo offense.
Andrew Nelles/Associated Press
4. Matt Forte
It appears Forte is finally getting his due respect in fantasy circles. The long underrated rusher for the Bears delivered a monster season under new head coach Marc Trestman, posting career highs pretty much across the board. He will once again be the main man for the Bears in 2014, and should come off the board early in fantasy drafts.
Colin E. Braley/Associated Press
3. Jamaal Charles
The Kansas City offense runs through Charles, more so than almost any other offense does through one player, which makes him such a valuable fantasy commodity. He likely won't score 19 touchdowns again, but double digits is certainly not out of the question.
Scott Boehm/Associated Press
2. LeSean McCoy
Few running backs leave defenders grasping at air quite like "Shady" McCoy. He thrived in Chip Kelly's offense last season, and that won't change in 2014. The arrival of Darren Sproles won't hurt McCoy's value at all. He still deserves to be one of the first names called in any fantasy draft.
Ann Heisenfelt/Associated Press
1. Adrian Peterson
Even in injury shortened seasons (like last year), Peterson has never scored fewer than 10 touchdowns. He's the most consistent player in fantasy football, which is why he's No. 1 year after year. Add into the mix that he should see more work in the passing game under new offensive coordinator Norv Turner, and there's little doubt that Peterson is the top fantasy option in 2014.

If you experience a low download speed when upgrading your system with Entropy there are several things you can do to try speed it up.
Select the best mirror
equo repo mirrorsort sabayonlinux.org
This will do some tests and evaluate the results automatically. Then sets the mirrors in the correct priority and writes the changes in /etc/entropy/repositories.conf
Use multifetch
If you do have a better internet connection, you can change the way how Entropy downloads the packages you need for installing.
Open /etc/entropy/client.conf and change multifetch as follows:
multifetch = 10
Don't forget to remove the # comment char, otherwise the line would still be skipped over.
Use delta technology
When we create a new version of a package on the server, the REAL difference (delta) between them could be small. Sometimes we just need to recompile a package because it got broken because some library got a new API version or whatever. So on a 16MB package, that diff could be as little as 100kb!
In the Entropy package manager we've build in a feature that could actually download the difference and then patch the old package and use the newly created on on your machine. In order to have this working you should keep a copy of your downloaded packages. (So don't run equo cleanup!)
If you are on lower bandwidth but have enough disk space on your system you might want to consider enable packages-delta.
Open /etc/entropy/client.conf and change packages-delta as follows:
packages-delta = enable
Don't forget to remove the # comment char, otherwise the line would still be skipped over.

Lee Earns Trip to First-Ever National Championship Final
The contest is the second lowest scoring game in championship history, trailing only Westmont and Westminster's 39-36 game in the quarterfinals, and the lowest scoring semifinal contest. The previous semifinal record was set by Union (Tenn.) and Shawnee State (Ohio), 58-40, in 2011.
With the game tied 41-41, Lee's Hollie German found herself at the free throw line with 3.7 seconds remaining. The junior guard, who entered the contest averaging a team-best 20.3 points per game, was put on the line after being fouled driving to the basket. German connected on both attempts to give the Lady Flames a 43-41 lead.
Following a Lee timeout, Cumberland guard Briannica Tye took the inbounds pass and drove the length of the court before pulling up at the top of the 3-point arc. Tye's attempt missed the mark, bouncing off the back of the rim and into the hands of a Lee defender as the buzzer sounded.
Both teams struggled offensively in the second period, scoring a combined 38 points, including 17 points from Lee on only three field goals. The Lady Flames made up for the shooting woes by converting 78.6 percent (11-of-14) of their free throw attempts, including a 5-for-6 effort over the course of the game's final three minutes.
The second half saw seven ties, including four in the final seven minutes, but only one lead change. No more than two points separated the two sides, except for on one occasion when Jenna Adams converted a pair of free throws to make it 40-37 with 3:30 left in the period.
Cumberland claimed its lone lead of the second half, and its first since seven minutes left in the first half, at the 1:57 mark, 41-40 when Simone Ryan converted an old-fashioned 3-point play. However, the lead was short lived, as German hit the second of two free throws to tie the game before winning the contest at the foul line more than a minute later.
Cumberland jumped out to a 9-2 lead to open the game. The Bulldogs physical defense forced Lee into only 1-for-4 shooting, four turnovers and one offensive foul during the run, which spanned the first six minutes of the period. The Lady Flames chipped away at the deficit before a 10-0 run, sparked by a deep Adams 3-pointer that banked off the backboard and into the basket. Adams scored eight of Lee's 10 points during the stretch with German tallying the other two.
The Lady Flames held Cumberland without a field goal over the final 2:04 of the first half to own a 26-20 lead, and the game's momentum, going into the break.
Adams finished the game leading all scorers with 16 points on 5-of-12 shooting and a 4-for-4 performance at the free throw line. She also grabbed 12 rebounds for her 16th double-double of the season and second at the national championship. Joining Adams in double figures was German with 13 points.
Two of the NAIA's top defenses held true to form, as Cumberland held Lee to 26.5 percent (13-of-49), including a 13.6 percent effort in the second half. The Lady Flames returned the favor, holding the Bulldogs to 28.8 percent (15-of-52)
while the Lady .The Lady Flames shot only 13.6 percent (3-of-22) in the second half.
The Bulldogs were led in scoring by London Elie and Tye with nine points each. Cumberland turned the ball over a championship-high 16 times.Cumberland, who was making its second-ever appearance in the national championship semifinals, ends its season with a program record single-season record of 33-3.

...and so fourth
With Jen currently sprawled on the couch surrounded by remotes and souped up on Darvoset, I figured it would be nice of me not to make her write a post today. She still has to make dinner of course - hey, it's not like it's gonna make itself! - but sometimes sacrifices like these are required to make a marriage work. ("Hey babe? Those potatoes are looking a little lumpy...Just sayin'.")
But seriously, *heh* we've gotten a whole bunch of Fourth of July cakes and it would be a shame not to share them. "Would you say we have a plethora of cakes?" you ask. Si, Elguapo, si.
Allow me to start with what I like to call a "wait...what?" cake:
Let's take it step by step here:
1. Start with an airbrush. 'Cuz ya gos ta show off yo mad skillz.
2. Realize you don't know how to do anything but wonky lines with said airbrush.
3. Pull out trusty icing bag and try to fake us all out with hastily splooged border and stars.
4. Add red, white and blue sprinkles to distract viewers from step #2.
Next we have donuts:
Yes, doughnuts. Because they were feeling left out of all the patriotic splooging. On a side note, I've seen my share of brightly colored icing before but this stuff makes me want to chuck it in a lead barrel and bury it in a mountain somewhere.
Remember the days when decorators would at least try to make a CCC (hwok...hwok...snort...ptooie!) look like something?
Yeah, those were the days. I particularly like the blue over spray on the cake board here for that extra special "Meh, who gives a flying squirrel?"* touch.
And finally,
If you think I'm going to touch this with a ten-foot pole, you've got another thing coming.**
Thanks, all, for bearing with us on Jen's day of woozyloopytudeness. She should be back soon - same bat time, same bat channel - so stay tuned.
*See? Look how family-friendly I am!
**Ok, never mind.
Thanks to Sarah C., Lesli W., Gilian, and Amy G. WRECK ON!

The simple fact is this: All too often, in today's world, mediocrity masquerades as quality.
Let me rephrase that: We allow ourselves to sacrifice quality based on popular representation. Things that look cool — or sound exciting, or are marketed well — take the place of things that are truly well done, or well made, or well created.
I'm not sure what it is about human behavior that allows us to make that mistake. But I am unable to count the number of people I know who are motivated to buy something, or use something, or play something — and not because it's high quality, but because the allure of the item or the marketing around it entices them.
Case to the contrary: This screenshot.
That is probably the least-sexy screenshot since … oh, I don't know. Probably since 1988 or so. I know 8-bit computer games that had more graphic flair and visual appeal than that picture right there. Heck, come to think of it, the weak-sauce games I wrote for high school computer class (a long time ago, thank you … and I always got high marks in computer class) had more shazam than that. That's just plain … dull.
But I can tell you this: I have not seen, played, or even heard of a game with more intricacy, complexity, control or gratification than Dwarf Fortress in decades.
I'm not a hard-core gamer; I've mentioned that repeatedly here. I don't spend much time playing games, usually because I'm engrossed with resurrecting old hardware and getting it out the door again. I don't play WoW, I don't follow the gaming industry. Most of the hardware I own can't even handle Neverball. I do play games, from time to time, but they rank low on my list … somewhere near watching TV or online chat.
But Dwarf Fortress is posing a serious challenge in the battle for my free time. I was almost late putting together that desktop machine I gave away yesterday, because I was too busy orchestrating the innermost structure of my dwarven expedition — designing the underground halls and defenses, directing the construction, managing the workforce and labor teams, providing workshops and recreation areas, rationing for the coming winter seasons, converting raw materials into marketable goods. … Everything.
Sexy it is not. Beautiful it is not. Graphically appealing it is not. It will run on slow, slow machines and that's actually a bad thing, because it means you don't have the excuse of claiming your hardware can't do it.* It's blocky, chunky, stodgy — even primitive in some ways. And I guarantee that if you break the seal on this one you will not put it down for a week or more. After ten minutes, you won't care what it looks like.
In a world where all too many games, all too many movies, all too much technology and all too much music is exceptionally poor quality, but sold with a thick veneer of quasi-cool on it, Dwarf Fortress is a complete antithesis. It's uncool, but I can guarantee that taking even just a moment to try it will hook you.
So make sure that moment isn't the night before a job interview, or your wedding, or a meeting with your boss. Try it out, but give yourself lots of free time. Transoceanic flight? Good time for Dwarf Fortress. Twenty minutes before picking up the kids from school? Bad time for Dwarf Fortress.
I have no better way of explaining it except to say that high-end, flashy professional games make are … dwarfed by this one. (LOL, a pun. 😀 ) This one has detail, control, plot, challenge, complexity, strategy — it's just an all-around good game. For once, quality is obvious, and appearances be damned.
They say you either got it or you don't. This one definitely does.
P.S.: Thanks — or maybe "thanks a lot, pal" — to Bionic Apple for mentioning it on the Arch forums.
*Disclaimer: It actually requires some 3D acceleration so you might not be able to run it on a 100Mhz laptop. However, I'm using an 8-year-old Pentium III with an Nvidia card in it, and it's running fine.

Kristoffer Broberg became the fastest player in Challenge Tour history to earn three victories and instant promotion to The European Tour after winning the Rolex Trophy by one shot with a sensational 40 foot birdie putt on the last hole.
Since the three victories rule was introduced, Dutchman Taco Remkes (2008), Rankings winner Edoardo Molinari of Italy (2009), Frenchman Benjamin Hebert and England's Sam Little (both 2011) have all achieved the feat, but none with nearly as much speed as Broberg, who has played just five Challenge Tour events this season.
The Swede's recent form has been nothing short of astonishing, as he won the Finnish Challenge (on 15 under par) and the Norwegian Challenge (22 under) at the start of the month, before finishing in a tie for third place at last week's ECCO Tour Championship hosted by Thomas Björn & Mercedes-Benz (11 under).
Broberg's closing round of 68 for a 26 under par winning total at Golf Club de Genève, in Geneva, took his cumulative score for the past four tournaments to a staggering 74 under par.
He joins Alex Noren as a winner of the Rolex Trophy, and will now try to emulate his close friend at next week's Omega European Masters, a tournament Noren won in 2009.
Broberg said: "It's so amazing, I'm just so happy. I couldn't believe it when that putt on the last hole dropped in – it was an incredible feeling. I always go for putts, so I never considered just rolling it up to the hole – I've always been positive with my putts. I didn't putt very well today, but it's great to know I can make big putts when I need to. I can't describe how it feels – it hasn't really hit me yet, but I'm sure it will.
"I can't wait to play on The European Tour, I'm playing so well and my confidence is so high at the moment that I feel like I can compete out there. I'll play in Crans next week, then at the KLM Open, then maybe I'll take a bit of time off and enjoy this feeling. At the moment I want to keep playing as much as I can, because I'm playing the best golf of my life."
Korean Sihwan Kim, playing in the group ahead of Broberg, had set the clubhouse target on 26 under par after closing with a round of 66 which included seven birdies and a solitary bogey.
After birdies at the fifth, eighth and tenth holes, Broberg moved to the same mark, but subsequently missed several birdie opportunities and, after hitting his approach to 40 feet on the final green, the tournament appeared to be heading for a play-off.
Broberg had other ideas, however, finding the middle of the cup with unerring accuracy to earn €24,400, a Rolex watch and a coveted European Tour card.
For Kim, consolation arrived in the form of the €18,100 runner-up cheque which moved him to 14th place in the Challenge Tour Rankings.
He said: "I didn't strike the ball as well as I did yesterday, but my putting today was very good, especially round the turn. I couldn't have done much more, so I'm not too upset. Any other week 26 under would be good enough to win the tournament, but Kristoffer's obviously playing great golf at the moment. So hats off to him, I'm sure he'll do well on the main Tour. And at least it gives some of us a chance on the Challenge Tour!"
Daniel Vancsik finished in third place on 25 under par after closing with a round of 66. The Argentine, who climbed to 15th place in the Rankings, said: "It was difficult in the wind today because it was swirling around, so that made life very tricky. But I played very well, and with a bit more luck I could've won. I just missed two putts on the 16th and 17th which would have made the difference.
"You need to hole a lot of putts to win tournaments, and I just didn't hole quite enough. But I have to be very happy, because I played my best and that's all you can do."

They are especially necessary when slow-speed exposures are being made, or when telephoto lenses are used, as any camera movement while the shutter is open will produce a blurred image. In the same vein, they reduce camera shake, and thus are instrumental in achieving maximum sharpness. A tripod is also helpful in achieving precise framing of the image, or when more than one image is being made of the same scene, for example when bracketing the exposure. Use of a tripod may also allow for a more thoughtful approach to photography. For these reasons, a tripod of some sort is often necessary for professional photography. In relation to film/video, use of the tripod offers stability within a shot as well as certain desired heights. The use of a tripod within film/video is often a creative choice of the Director.
