No Pasaran (They Shall Not Pass)
Category: polish songs
Since (e:tinypliny) likes Spanish language songs, here's a Polish song by the vaguely ska band Blade Loki with a Spanish language chorus.

No Pasaran refers to the famous battle cry of the Spanish Civil War

They are also kinda like a hardcore band......

They are kinda like if you took No Doubt and then Gwen Staffani on her own and mixed them together, well not really....

On Facebook I would give the I like hand...........

They remind me of Evanescence on acid with maybe less clothes. Hahaha. Nice one!

(Not A) Communist
Category: polish songs
Today's Polish song is by Kryzys (Crisis)

I love this song. This is really weird for me because this is an edit of a longer video that someone else posted on Youtube that included a another song and part of a tv show.

All I did was edit the original video down to the (Not A) Communist song.

Hopefully, I didn't piss anyone off by doing this. I tried to give full credit.

Miasteczko N. (Town N.)
Category: polish songs
Recently, (e:enknot) was quoted as saying that (e:strip) is boring.

Here is a Polish song to honor that observation. It's by Shakin Dudi. The song begins with the chant "Boredom, Boredom" in Polish. Nuff Said.

They fell asleep because life in the town of N is boring.

The lyrics are a list of the attributes of the Town of N. "There is a restaurant" "I wouldn't eat there." There is a mailbox" "Where you can post your letter"

So perhaps the images are not as random as one might think.

That was the weirdest and most random video ever. They were all afflicted with narcolepsy in the end. haha
tinypliny - 12/12/10 23:45
HAHAHAA I can't stop laughing.

Zareason Hex-core Linux Box
Category: linux
After using Linux boxes almost exclusively for almost 10 years, I've finally done it. I've bought a Linux box instead of buying a Windows box and installing Linux on it.

I bought a Limbo 6000A with an AMD Phenom II X6 1055T processor and 6 gigs of RAM from Zareason . They custom build Ubuntu boxes. I ordered it with Ubuntu Studio.

When darkness was falling today, the UPS man delivered it.

And so far so good. I ordered it with a wireless card. And amazingly enough, it worked even though vanilla Ubuntu Studio doesn't support any wireless (apparently, wifi drivers affect latency. And latency is bad for audio and video production; so, no wireles for Ubuntu Studio)

My only complaint is that the /home doesn't have its own partition. I just took it for granted that it would. It's not a big deal to me to change it so. Not having a dedicated /home partition negates some of the flexibility of having a Linux Box. And a Linux newbie would probably be afraid of fucking up their box by changing the partition scheme. On the other hand, Windows users are used to having system and data files on the same partition.

The default settings are decent.

I think I'm going to have lots of fun with this box.

@ (e:paul) -I'm recording me. After years of dormancy, I'm feeling the creative urge again. I've always been one of those diy lo-fi geeks who try to play everything themselves (thank edison for the drum machine) since the 1970s.

I'm hoping that the new box will make that easier.
paul - 12/10/10 22:46
Sounds fun, what are you recording?

Dwojka Rzymska (Roman II)
Category: polish songs
Krzysztof Komeda is arguably Poland's best jazz pianist of the 1960s. In the Western world, he is perhaps best known as the composer of the lullaby from the film Rosemary's Baby.

This performance is from 1964.
