    BTW, I too have very little time today. I am in the zone with my work. Love it when I can do that.

    Thats nice when you can focus.

    Oh yes, I love it. One more week of this and I can get fully back to my work. Wish I can somehow get that gaming PC, though I am losing my hope.

    Oh, Ralf been kicking your ass?

    No, that's Ben. Ben does all the kicking ass here.

    Yah, Ben's the professional ass-kicker around these parts.

    Not been kicking much... Haven't seen him. Around .

    Maybe we should get him to change nick to @Benwaskickbutt

    @BenIsButtKicked

    He'd prove tough competition if he was participating this year.

    Too bad he's not here then :(

    Definitely.

    Yeah, night time is definitely for sleeping. Mostly for sleeping.

    I know I do like to sleep at nighttime. Just a powernap on daytime.

    I can't powernap, I just feel even more tired afterwards. And then it messes up my ability to sleep in the evening as well.

    Oh that's bad. I feel great after a quick nap. Skipped it today though. Sound some remodeling at the office so the couch is gone but no replacement yet > @noob404 said:

    Oh but I'm prolly not gonna make the charts that high. Just maybe 1K more tonight if Ralf comes

    I can't tonight, I'm going out to get drunk again.

    Good luck, dude. BTW, try to get that NL beer stuff that sara shared the other day. Maybe leave a review.

    I would send but dont want to enable his drinking issues.

    Oh, I see. Youa re a good friend then.

    Gotta watch them lads these days.

    Thank you for your service!

    Just working.

    Me too. Progressed a lot of work today. Satisfied with the results.

    I have zero progression today so that's bugging me out.

    Yeah, I have a lot to accomplish today so that I'm allowed out to the pub tonight.

    I dont but really just trying to push myself to get stuff done.

    Me as well. As soon as the thread is active, work kinda seems to take backseat.

    Oh no not this... I hit a block of some kind. No creativity today

    I can lend you some. Got lots of creativity, no outlet though. :lol:

    Like I said, powernaps have never worked for me. But, maybe I should try them later, when I am almost stress-free.

    Use a bed, even better than the couch.

    Did use a bed.

    I think maybe 3-4 days of complete rest would let me keep up at night for the next 3 days or so, I guess.

    Aint healthy though.

    Not at all, I know. But, better than living in constant fear of a debt that needs to be repaid at the latest.

    Couldnt you just get a job?

    I already have one. MY salary is just not enough to repay that debt. Sorry, sara, the more I talk about it, the more it's gonna seem like trying to make you give up on the PC.

    Maybe get a side gig?

    Oh believe me, I have 2 going on right now.

    Ok.

    Yah, onto better things. I sometimes forget, I come to the thread to forget about my problems in real life.

    I did recommend that from the beginning to you. SInce you are already streaming to one platform, it won't be that difficult to setup for streaming to yt too.

    Yep. I could prob use some sort of proxy for that. Maybe with ffmpeg?

    Sad that i missed it :( I'll be lurking but not going for a spot :)

    So, there was a lot of talk of MC server in this year's thread. Bas, if you remember from last year even started streaming on Twitch. He also got his affiliate.
    I vaguely remember you starting an MC instance on an rn vps last year. How's that doing?

    Can't you run minecraft on any old VPS?

    It does require a lot of ram tho

    Good luck, dude. BTW, try to get that NL beer stuff that sara shared the other day. Maybe leave a review.

    This is just a typical locals pub. Won't even have the nice beer I like, will just have to settle for the boring stuff.

    Oh, so, that's expensive beer, I see.

    If you able to get it, 10/bottle I think.

    10 euros?

    Yeah, could be.

    A normal pint of beer in the UK can be as low as £3 in a proper local's pub, but also that tastes a bit meh. In an expensive pub, or anywhere in London, it'll be £6-7 for a pint of beer.

    A bottle or can or beer is smaller (either 60% or 80% of a pint) and usually costs more, so a cheap pub maybe £5, in London maybe £8. That's about €10 already.

    For the really strong stuff like Sara mentioned, it's even more expensive, but a lot of place will sell it around the same price just in a smaller bottle or glass.

    Those are actually really affordable. Given the higher standards of living there, I was expecting much higher prices.

    Uk is poor

    Yeah, night time is definitely for sleeping. Mostly for sleeping.

    Definitely is, unless there is something more pressing. How long are you out for usually on days you go hang out at the pub?

    Ralf lasts a long time.

    Yah, I remember him mentioning that earlier.

    Especially when he drunk.

    Not sure when it was. :)
