What's the matter with your doctor? Can't he operate?

He is all right with knife, but do not know how to remove all my blood without killing me... So as an alternative he prohibits of drinking and eating anything I have pleasure to do so...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I was once there for the Bicentenary, and it was enough for me. I live less than 60 km away... and I won't go anymore.
- Huge amounts of really drunk people
- Huge inflated prices (come on, 2 years ago 10,5 € for "a' Mass Bier", I suppose now would be around 12€ or so)(Side effect... you pay with 15€ and you won't always get change back)
- Long waiting times everywhere you want to go
- Quite high amount of pickpockets
- If you are a woman... quite big amount of drunken jerks that will easily get over the limit
Can it be funny? Yes
Will it be funny? Not necessarily
Is it something to be seen at least once in a lifetime? Yes
Is it something one wants to repeat? In my case... definitively not
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Right, all that belongs to the package, just as the rides. Or Kaiserschmarrn. I always eat some of that. Or when the boss reserves a table and we all go there for an afternoon (guess where all those really drunk people come from!).

I lived 5 years in Berlin...never zipped down to Munich for it.
I lived 15 years near Kaiserslautern, never zipped over to Munich for it.
Now I'm living in Esslingen/Neckar and probably won't cruise down the A8 to Munich for it.

Definitely on my bucket list. This may be a strange question but is there a wide variety of ales (not just gassy lager's) available as I generally prefer English type ales and some of the Weissbier's (spelling?) I've tried?

No, usually not. Part of the problem is that we usually think of ales as too flat and served too warm (as opposed to 'gassy', I guess). We even joke that they warm up the beer in England before serving it. Drink quickly before it gets cold. 
In the 'tents' at the Oktoberfest they serve the 'Festbier' which each brewery makes especially for the event. No ale there, sorry.
And there is nothing more gassy than Weissbier. The good news is that you get plenty of that (even plenty of different sorts) all year and everywhere else.

... and so it drops off the bucket list unfortunately as I've never been able to stomach lagers  .
Looks fun though, hope you have a great time when it comes back around  .

There is nearly no variety.
Only Munich based breweries are allowed to serve beer at the Oktoberfest. There are six such breweries and they make all a special one (pale lager, called Oktoberfestbier or Wiesnbier) served only at the Oktoberfest which is stronger than the common brands (about 6 % alc).
Besides the Oktoberfestbier, you can also get the Weissbier (your spelling is correct according to the latest German ortography rules) from these breweries. It is also named Weizenbier (wheat beer).

"Yes, future state radio established a large German gathering." (11)
Good luck.

There is only one large gathering in this town. It's called Oktoberfest (which also has 11 letters). But Bavaria is not Germany, so that can't be the solution and I would not have the time to make a new riddle for tomorrow.
|
|
|
|
|
I did think about using 'Bavarian gathering' but thought that would make it too obvious.
Anyway, correct answer CodeWraith so it's either your turn tomorrow, or you can delegate it to the first person to come up with the correct solution?

Griff has saved me, which probably is a good thing. In just a few weeks we will be seeing a lot of these[^] everywhere and then next month the Oktoberfest will begin again.
|
|
|
|
|
OK, I'll see if I can save CodeWraith...
Yes, OK
future TO BE
state radio RF (Radio Frequency?)
established EST
a large German gathering
OKTOBERFEST
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Thanks. A much better solution than mine anyway.

Well done Griff, you're back at the helm tomorrow .
I had future state = to be, and radio = RF, but apart from that spot on.

You do know that you can never unsee something and that MindBleach (C)(TM) does not really exist?

Google, Microsoft talking about AI , bots all the super intelligent stuff. I wonder can't they first make a piece of software work properly? It's the 3rd time in last few months I'm ending up troubleshooting my PC for terrible issues.
My notebook has a very good config(basically a gaming machine) , It should by no means could get sluggish. When I started noticing it was dragging like a car with punctured tire, I got into troubleshooting. After coming around different diagnostics, I noticed the Disk utilization was badly stuck at 100%.
No matter how much of RAM you got, how much of CPU cores you got, if the disk utilization is high, nothing works. It was almost freezing my pc. I tried a lot of things including turning OFF Super-fectch service, windows Search indexing, background intel. trasfer service & more- all as per suggestions from OS forums.
When this happened the first time, My OS (Windows 8.1) got frozen at user login. There were serious problems, even the safe-mode threw up. I had to re-install the OS.
When this started to show up again after a week, I was quick to guess the culprit this time. It's the damned Chrome. (And no my disk doesn't have any bad sectors, its perfectly fine)
I uninstalled Chrome and things were alright. After a month, the same Disk Utilization problem popped up. And I went straight to uninstall Chrome & re-installed, it worked good again.
The 3rd time, I noticed. When I'm shutting down the PC forcefully (before chrome could shutdown all the running process), I guess things are turning awfully wrong on disk. Chrome seem to make extensive (read it excessive) usage of the disk, may be for caching the whole thing for super perf. or it's a problem with OS paging huge data. Dont know.
If there's a little damage to the disk files management, I guess it's tossing up the browser completely.
And re-installing the Browser doesn't work too , until you select the option to clear the disk-cache files.
And my question to Windows is, if a particular program is screwing up the whole PC, can this be detected and warned intelligently instead of making the whole OS suffer. It was almost feeling like Windows-95,98 times. Where just one bad application can freak the whole OS out. (Remember the double Ctrl+Alt+Del=Boom?)
All the "AI" stuff these companies talk about, why not first put it to use in their existing products and make lives better?

You do know that this AI stuff has been around for decades and now has become so popular because they happen to have nothing else to create a hype around? It's just the latest buzzword, that is slapped on everything that behaves as intelligently as a potted plant.
Your software problems are the other side of this. Everything has been stuffed until under the roof with endless features which nobody needs. It's the trash bin of all buzzwords that came before and the great AI stuff will end here as well. All in the name of selling you the next 'best ever' version of something.

Precisely.
"Cloud" is the mother of all buzzword-abuses, followed by "AI", "IoT" & many more.
