  6. Really fun on Flugtag, Human Powered Flying Machine Competition · · Score: 1

    We allready had this a few times in Austria. It's a lot of fun. I think it's cool that they took the german title Flugtag which means "fly-day".
    Maybe they just want you to work all day and night (that's where Red Bull comes in) to finish this project before deadline.
    But hey, they will have free Red Bull there!!! I'm sure.

  9. Austria on The Golden Age of Cup Manufacturing · · Score: 1

    If you go to one of the nice Viennese Cafehauses, I used to go. The tallest, biggest, whatever coffee you get is about 8 ounces. But, that's fine since it's the quality which counts. Right?

    Remember, the choice of workstation should be entirely based on what makes the artist most productive.

  11. my girlfriend almost left me... on NYT Discovers the Panopticon · · Score: 2, Funny

    This reminds me about my girlfriend, she searched her name on the web and found p0rn.
    Since I write web pages too, she immediately assumed that I made this page with here name between all the naked girls. She almost left me and it took some time until she understood what happened.
    Now I need to be aware that she will find this post, and will be angry again because I blamed her at /.

  12. it's called Fluegerl on The Open Source Cookbook? · · Score: 1
    Vodka Red Bull first showed up in Austria/Salzburg and they called it "a Fluegerl" there. Fluegerl comes from the wings, in the fun Red Bull adds.

    By the way, the drink is called Chelsea in England since Clinton's doughter can't stop it...

  13. Vodka RedBull is good for you on The Open Source Cookbook? · · Score: 1
    I just read in an article on news.com.au (/. mentioned this as well) that: "drinking at least three cups of coffee a day can reduce the risk of developing alzheimers disease by as much as 60 per cent."

    "Scientists believe it is the caffeine in coffee that protects against alzheimers, an incurable disorder that causes disorientation and memory loss."

    There is also a article at msnbc.com, saying that alcohol may reduce Alzheimers as well.

    "Drinking moderate amounts of alcohol, which has already been shown to help prevent heart disease and strokes, may also cut the risk of Alzheimer's disease by nearly half, a Dutch study found."

    I knew I'm on the right track. Can somebody pass me another Vodka Red Bull?

    *Caffeine is known for its stimulating effect, clearly noted above all in the circulatory system and in the brain.

  18. I will not stop... on The Glories of Red Bull · · Score: 1

    I drink Red Bull since years, I also drink coffee. But it's hard to find good coffee in America, so I just drink Red Bull and I will not stop. If I would die some day, I wouldn't wonder if I had a Red Bull that day (because I drink it almost every day).
