This little faggot is making covers for all kinds of popular music.

Previously Venezuelaball posted some songs of a sludge metal band, Acid Bath. Managed to put my hands on some of their songs. Here's a couple I liked.

They give you a white shirt with long sleeves
Tied around your back, you're treated like thieves
Drug you up because they're lazy
It's too much work to help a crazy

I'm not crazy! (Institution!)
You're the one that's crazy! (Institution!)
You're driving me crazy! (Institution!)
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect from the enemy, myself

As I noted I wanted to post this for the lyrics. I think it's quite rare. Basically they took events and facts about the radio, the history of Hungarian radio, and weaved it into the lyrics. Am gonna try to do a translation in the following post. It won't be an "artistic" translation ofc, and I want to add couple of notes about what they are referring to.

LGT: A rádió/Szól a rádió (~The Radio/The Radio is On) - lyrics

It was called "broadcasting" and it cost a lot
When the first speaker sat at the microphone
His metallic voice lifted off and flew far
And a listener thought - The test was successful
Note: it was really called "broadcasting" in the beginning, with the English term. Prior to that we had something on the Hungary that can be translated to "telenews" which was an idea of the Hungarian inventor, Puskás Tivadar of the telephone exchange. He imagined that the telephone wasn't just for communication between two parties but a tool for mass communication, and they organized a news service that could be listened via the telephone. It had liek 10K subscriber in the country. Anyway he worked closely with Edison, and I think English/American practices had great impact on telecommunication hereabout.

On the Gyáli street a closed up furniture truck stood
Which served as the first radio studio in '23
And it was served as broadcast fine
When adjutant John Marcal sang a song
Note: this is all true. The first experimental radio station was set up in a furniture transporting truck (it was roomy enough) and it stood on the yard of a post office on the Gyáli street, Budapest. Marcal János was a postal coworker, who was an amateur singer. They thought just reading stuff would be too dry and wanted a colorful insert, so they asked him to sing.

They could note about the radio in '24
That it broadcasted the first concert from the Zoo
And the producers cursed the competition

By the golden age all the speakers had learnt that
Improvisation is forbidded, the written text must be read!
Although only a few knew Skoff Elza and Filotás Lili
All the listeners knew how nice their voice is
The golden age of radio begin in the '30s on the Hungary. I assume it was expected from the anchors to tell the news how they got it on paper. Radio ain't free.
Skoff Elza and Filotás Lili were both presenters the latter a decade earlier from 1931 (at the age 23). Both knew languages - German, French, English typically complemented by some others.

The kids were searching the "uncle" in the box
And the grandmas polished it with wax
The mailmen took from the listeners the tax
Who had to pay the same both for the good and bad news
Note: the "uncle" is a generic term for older men, the kids thought someone is in the box of the radio. Since the box was made of wood and not plastic back then it needed some care, as with all furniture, so they polished them with wax. The tax in this context is the subscription fee, I assume it was kinda like the telly loicense for the Bri'ish. And ofc it was the same amount no matter what was the news.

I skip a verse here because it's just a "radio simulation".

Today we receive it in stereo, and it's good
For one can hear different things from the two sides

A year passed and again this day commemorates the foundation of Hungary, this is 1018th birthday. We celebrate this national holiday with listening to politicians mixing irrelevant daily politics into historical events in the morning and watching fireworks in the evening. Budapesterners can witness the procession of state founder Saint Stephen's Holy Dexter. Also all the local communities have their own little celebrations.
This is the third time I make this thread, and I won't post much, maybe I'll post something about what happened today - if anything interesting - later.

As for Hungary.
It appears that at the same time the Czechoslovak reforms started, the Kádár regime here introduced new economical practices, trying to make the country's economy actually work. The changes put forward in the neighbour were mostly political in nature, so our leadership started to pray to Saint Lenin that they keep them very "moderate". They feared if things were getting out of hands then our economical project will be scraped, or perhaps even the thoughts of resistance will be reignited here or at least Moscow will think that's happening too.
Since their fears seemed to become true, they decided to show they are loyal subjects of Moscow, and they can march along with the Warsaw Pact, right into Czechoslovakia, when finally Brezhnev decided at the military solution. Kádár even declared that if it comes to counter-revolution in Czechoslovakia, he will vote wholeheartedly for military intervention. Well he did the same with his own country so I don't see how could he not applied the same principle elsewhere.
From his opinion we could also deduce, that the Dubcek-turn, was went far enough for him to consider it a counter-revolution. However this is not the case. He gave the opinion to Brezhnev (on the day of the invasion, on August 21), that the events in Czechoslovakia are closer to the Polish events of 1956 than to the Hungarian counter-revolution of the same year. Still, Hungarian forces were participated the same.

Supposedly later in 1988-89 when our socialist system started to collapse they considered the moral Czechoslovakian lesson and example.

What they said that there were news and they knew Hungarian soldiers are participating. There was some tension, uncertainty, and a bit of fear. They said the Czechs were labeled as counter-revolutionaries.
That's about it.

Last year I found out there's native Linux version of the Baldur's Gate Enhanced Editions. They are working well but I don't think I'll ever finish a playthrough again. Back then I finished original BG, and BG2, but not the Throne of Bhaal expansion. Damn long games.
Enhanced Edition makes it possible to play this classic DnD based crpg on modern steel, fixes bugs, changes some rules, adds new NPCs with quests, new items, two new expansions (The Black Pits - arena fight generator?, and Siege of Dragonspear - which is a module for the original story, taking part between BG1 and BG2). It seems okay all in all.

Up till recently I uses PlayOnLinux, but some years ago it's development stopped, and sometimes stuff is buggy (like installation of dll's via winetricks).
Prior to that I sued Q4wine but the development stopped around 2014 as the conflict started with Russia, because the dev is an Ukrainian and wanted to draw attention to their plight. I think since then he restarted developing it.
However.
Recently I started to use WineGUI, which seems to be the closes to the Wine project, and it's just werks.
My problem with others I found, like proton and crossover or whatnot, that either have to pay or can't use them with pirated backup copies of games.
I think all three is in the repos no additional 3rd party sources are needed to be added.

I got a copy of Duke Nukem's Megaton edition. And I compared it to randy pitchford's cursed version.

It's the exact same thing. Only thing they added were just redone Duke Nukem lines from John St. John. And the Russia/USSR chapter. I have no clue why they got rid of the Megaton edition since they could have added extra content easily to that one ffs.

Apparently it happened more than a year ago, but the case has been "in review" since the video above was revealed. The dude in the floor was a nignog suspected of having participated in a deadly shooting. The police claimed they shot in response after he produced a gun and shot a policeman in a leg. However, this is disputed by other people who believe he was unarmed and the shot came from another police (probably that woman seen in the video)

While looking for that I found vids related.

I'd really watch the whole thing spiraling out. That cop whose gun was taken looks incompetent, how he let that happen? Obviously there is more to it.
Then the dude walking up towards the arriving cop cars, calm as a cucumber. Did they just blast him, or did he went for a shot first? The branches covering the scene.
Tried to search about this but who knows when was this taken.

Olympics came to their end. The sporting drama ended - they seem to be proud of such bs.
The final ranking established, both US and China won 40 gold medals, but the US medal harvest in volume was greater. Much greater by 35 medals. Many countries would be glad just with the half of that.
This table is chiefly weighs the gold as the metrics to establish the rankings. Purely if we count all the medals won, the order would change a bit. Not by much, but Brazil - with her low gold count - would jump a lot.
As for Hungary, the expected medal count was around 20, which "target" our competitors accomplished. Basically on the level of previous olympic achievements. Surprisingly no medals in water polo, which we are traditionally strong in.
If we take a look at the sports and the medal distribution - athletics, canoe, fencing, swimming, pentathlon, shooting, taekwondo - we can declare we "specialize" in canoe, swimming, and fencing pentathlon also include swimming, fencing, and shooting. Taekwondo is a fluke. It would be nice if our athletes could diversify, and bring results in other sports.
We'll see in four years how they fare. If we live that long.
