Lindstrom Knows Everything, everything that matters, anyway Options

[Lindstrom]

Pretty much most power plants are Rankine cycle, and this is no different. However, instead of burning a fuel or something we're abusing temperature differences. The technology still needs work, particularly the pipes and heat exchangers, to become commercial, but otherwise the theory is proven.

[IdlersDream]

What made you decide you wanted to take that line of work?

[Lindstrom]

I don't know, I think I just have a natural disposition for wanting to expand environmental technology. Me from a few months ago would've had a better answer when I just started it, cuz now my brain only thinks about doing the job, and no longer thinking about why I'm there.

[IdlersDream]

What are some other things you considered, even if they were silly?

[Lindstrom]

Not counting anything else environmental technology related, stuff like animator or actor. There was a point when I was like, 17 where I thought being a butler would be the coolest job in the world.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

Ever play any of the old N64 Banjo Kazooie games?

[Lindstrom]

Nope, but somewhere in my house is an old VHS narrated by Jon Lovitz that came as part of an ad campaign. I also have the old Star Fox tape they sent too.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) I can imagin his voice being in an ad like that. What all did it show on the Star Fox tape? Peppy using the ol "Do a barrel roll!" thing, or Falco sassing Fox because he's on his side after a few accidental shots?

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

Oh man I remember seeing this on youtube, well part of it. It's so lame, but enjoyable at the same time.

[Lindstrom]

I watched it a number of times anticipating the game's release. When it was finally out, the only copy I could get my hands on was a rented Japanese version (I kind of wonder if that was just a setting though?). Because I didn't understand what they were saying, I had lots of problems and couldn't get very far cuz I wasn't learning any of the maneuvers. Brought it to a friends house and he showed me how to do everything, then eventually managed to buy my own copy of the game.

[Hasfusel]

Could you recommend me some music? You have pretty good taste, so yeah.

[Lindstrom]

Turn on the radio and try listening to stations until you find a few that play stuff you seem to like. You'll constantly be finding new good stuff. This probably seems like a lazy answer but you'll actually be able to listen to stuff instead of taking my word for things.

[Hasfusel]

You don't understand. I live in Britain. I get British radio. Now recommend me some stuff.

[IdlersDream]

Hassy, radio is bad wherever you are. You should've asked me that question, I have loads of things I think you'd like. Silly boy.

Do you own an iPod?

[Lindstrom]

You live in the land of David Bowie and Robert Smith, how can you be having a hard time finding your own music? Also if the radio stations suck, you're probably not checking out all of them. Even when driving across the country I managed to always be able to find a good station wherever I was.

Yeah, I've got an old iPod nano that holds like 2 GB and I have to make space for when I want to put new stuff on. Works well so I don't really need a new one I spose

[Hasfusel]

I check the radio frequently for news and classical music. There's never anything at all on the other channels, such trashy stuff for boring people. I don't think they've played music like David Bowie on the radio for about twenty years.

Allow me to treat you to the "extraordinary young talent" featured on British radio today.



Now, are you gonna recommend me some stuff or what

[Lindstrom]

Cake
The Cat Empire
Yes
Apples in Stereo

running late so deal with that for now

[Hasfusel]

Thank you. Liked the first one the most, but the others were also good. I'll investigate other songs by those bands.
Would you be interested in hosting a second Diplomacy if I can hustle up a load of players?

[Lindstrom]

Yeah I can do that.
