(a, b) at the bottom. It's a 1d integral, so nothing goes after f as well for me.

I find it very common with opensuse. At first I was ecstatic to update, but now I just can't care - it takes too long, so I do it every few months.

I think that Ready Player One was terribly ported from the book format to the movie. The book went so much more over the top than the movie did, the latter turning down on a lot of nerd aspects. Having said that, different formats need different ways for conveying the same idea. The main character would literally get a "+1 blazing sword" in the book. +1. As if it were an MMO or something.

Having said that, Dune (book and movie) were terrible. The movie felt plagued with references to stuff I didn't get. Only recently did I read the book just to find it was as uninteresting as the movie.

I'll never forget those opera singers singing right to my ears when a ship would land... Now that's a way to startle a person.

On the bright side, reading the book has allowed me not see the second part of the movie.

Answering the title: one thing can't be denied, and it's that production quality has been in a steady decrease from the 80s onwards. If you can look past that, there are some current really good music groups.

Now onto the body of the message: I am a big prog rock fan, but I can't stand Pink Floyd. My dad can't either, we never ever spoke about that but found ourselves agreeing on it when I turned 20. It seems like there is a large gap in quality to the likes of Alan Parsons, ELO, Genesis, Yes and whatnot.

It's surprising that these acts have shown up on the news roll. I recall that 10-15 years ago we would have more recorded instances of police brutality in Spain, usually involving local police. Edit: also the shameful acts of the national police when the rodea el congreso demonstration took place.

I don't think the amount of acts like this has been declining, but rather a byproduct of the disgraceful ley mordaza, which the current government pledged to remove and never got around to.

In other words, it's surprising that this video has managed to make its way up to the news roll, but ultimately nothing new under the sun.
