This is a standard Hollywood film, with extra emphasis on Nationalism. Has some offensively American moments, but is generally okay. It’s a bloody long film.

Vampires and ~~lichen lychen lycan~~ werewolves continue their centuries-long war, but the werewolves seek to gain the upper hand in hunting down a particular human.

A great movie which would be well-loved except for the unexplained, unnecessary and horrifying coloured contacts and occasional plot holes. Oh, and a more convincing main bad guy. Hot actors and convincing characters.. that about sums up my expectations for bubblegum action movies like this.

I have two versions, but I seem to have misplaced one. =(

A fair graphics card, but with poor 2D acceleration compared to my Matrox Mystique 220.

EncFS provides an encrypted filesystem in user-space. It runs without any special permissions and uses the FUSE library module to provide the filesystem interface.

2016-12-28 – I have no memory of using this. Boy will it be awkward if I come across stuff encrypted with it.

I thought it had hope but needed significant work.

2022-07-12 – Apparently abandoned
- The website is down
- the source code archive as of 202201280 shows the last activity at 2021-02-09. It was a small change and the update previous to that was 2018-10-05.
- The mailing list archive doesn’t tell me enough because it’s an old snapshot.
