    I think they must have scraped the "starring" entries from http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0246818/fullcredits/cast . Probably an algorithm selects the most famous names in the list according to some criteria, and after all, who is a bigger name than Hitler?

    Alexander Rhodes

    Paul Sparer, obviously. That's why Hitler got second billing.

    I'm curious, what equipment do you think is needed to make an ice cream cake at home? I've made at least a dozen of them over the years without any equipment I'd consider 'special'.

    Contrary to popular belief, OS/2 is still very much alive, although under a different name. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the core systems from American Airlines runs OS/2 or its successor.
    Right: eComstation. At least it's supported, which is more than you can say about the Windows NT in that same message.

    The "Hilarity and Nuremberg" made me think of Hogan's Heroes. If you remember LeBeau from the series that made Nazis all bumbling and sergeants like Schultz all cuddly bear like, Clary actually was in concentration camps in the war, and lost pretty much all of his family because of it.

    or because OS/2 was more stable and more customizable and way faster about 15 years ago than even the latest version of Windows XP. Still nicely runs all the old DOS games, too.

    PS: I'm actually running an OS/2 PC - no problems and not re-installed for 15 years! Try that with Windoze :-D

    About the error boxes filling up the screen.

    This is a know bug in the League of Legends (as seen in the windows taskbar) launcher.

    The game itself deservers an entire week of TDWTF articles. It's basically a monstrosity patched together in about 5 languages, and somehow, it works!, and well enought to be the worlds most played game.

    It's player base surpasses old time classics such as Counter-Strike and (believe it or not) World of Warcraft!

    the fun of food that isn't unicode compliant.
    unicode compliant food... now that's an interesting concept :-)

    "I'll have a bow of alphabet soup... from the cyrillic unicode subset, please!"

    That's no different from "I'll have a bowl of alphabet soup from the Roman unicode subset" (i.e. the alphabet that your posting used), or Greek or Hindi or katakana.

    Kanji would be difficult even though there are a few ANSI code pages for Chinese and one for Japanese, besides of course being subsets of Unicode.

    Actually even the Roman unicode subset, even just the ASCII alphabetic characters that are part of unicode, pose a problem for alphabet soup. Even though u don't reveal the problem, i do.

    I'm pretty sure Adolf Hitler was dead before the Nuremburg trials. Wasn't he accidentally killed by Mr Bean in hilarious circumstances?
    No. Due to Godwin's law, the occurence of Hitler caused termination of the thread that Hitler occured in, so he terminated himself with extreme prejudice. Niwdog's law requires resumption of any thread that Bean occurs in. When these two laws accidentally coincide, they produce a WTF.

    I'd pay good money to see Mr. Bean try to goosestep.

    Then I suggest you put your good money towards watching the film, 'Mr Bean's Holiday'.

    Spoiler: Mr. Bean tries to goosestep.

    My favourite cake story is when I ordered a fancy cake for my mom´s 64th birthday. As a little joke ( in the line of "oh, 64 is SOOOO ugly number") I asked the baker to put there as square of 8. I wrote is for the personally, in front of them. In our country, we write it as small 2 above 8. And you guess right, they gave me a cake with "happy 82nd birthday". But they fixed it when I asked. But this one is better. Even better than the tattoo "FILE COOLTATTOO01.JPG NOT FOUND".

    C'mon, it's your mom! Be nice and just use hexadecimal!

    It's a Dairy Queen cake - made mostly of soft serve ice cream. Pretty hard to bake. My son hated ordinary cake but like DQ (he eventually moved on to pie for his birthdays).

    I don't order the cake by computer, for those kind of reasons. I won't order by telephone either, for a similar reasons.

    The multiple dialog thing - years ago I installed a Beavis and Butthead screensaver that did this with irritating sounds. It lasted about 5 seconds and had an easy uninstall. I honestly don't know what I was thinking.

    It's not worse, just the least "Hardcore".

    DOTA 2 has a ton more heavy nukes and unforgiving abilities/mechanics, aswell as a very complex and varied item system. None of that makes it a bad game, but it sure as hell makes it unfriendly to new players.

    LoL at-least is friendly to new players, with it's easy to grasp item system, no deny mechanics and forgiving yet still unique abilities and mechanics. I'll easily submit that the game play doesn't go as deep as DOTA 2 (Or HoN due to deny mechanics), but that's not a bad thing. LoL is an example of a game that successful by trying to bring simplicity into a Genre, not more mechanics.

    You can't make alphabet soup for katakana. Katakana is a syllabary, not an alphabet.

    OK. To make it an alphabet, use only the most common form of each character. You can get the same result by using the katakana subset of any commonly used font. (Odds are there are some fonts dedicated to using less common forms of each character, just as there are for Italian characters ... though I think they'd do that to hiragana more than to katakana.)

    You are right, I later learned that it was Leagues launcher. It actually took about 5 minutes to clean up that horrid mess of windows.

    Other glitches I've discovered with it include install times in the negative, or ones taking thousands of years.
