    The Indie Game Jam is a yearly game design and programming event designed to encourage experimentation and innovation in the game industry...

    Whoop-tee-doo! :P Most of us 12:01am showing folks just got back from Episode II premiers. It's 4am, I saw it in digital with 11 close friends. Concensus reaction:

    OH MY FUCKING GAWD.

    (In a jaw-dropped, wide-eyed, wired-at-3am , good kind of way :)

    The big surprise was that we somehow got the "Director's Cut," which according to the theater manager, was 11 minutes longer than the celluloid version. Which makes sense, since we were dispersing behind the 12:05 showing and right alongside the 12:10 showing, both of which were "non-digital" formal.

    Valley View Cinemark in Ohio RULES!

    Favorite quote was some dude commenting to the media after the movie: "Yoda is like Bruce Lee, Mister Myogi, and Kermit the Frog all rolled into one!!"

    :D :D

  6. Slashdot - Welcome To The New Age Of Adverticles by Bowie+J.+Poag · · Score: -1, Offtopic



    So, lets see. We go to Slashdot, and we find:

    o A 1000-pixel wide banner advertising (gasp) SourceForge at the top.

    o A top story that refers to a (gasp) SourceForge project!

    o A link to an article that contains no less than two separate SourceForge logos..

    o And mentions SourceForge in the article 5 separate times..

    I have only two questions. First, do you guys really think we're so stupid that we cant recognize when VA tries to use its influence to run pro-SourceForge articles? Nice community-minded approach there, guys. So much for Savannah. Theyre getting in VA's way. Secondly, do I have VA's permission to go to the bathroom and wipe my ass with these poorly veiled [ advertisements | articles | adverticles ]?

    jacenggf:

    The Scene when Anakin finds his mom, kills the tuskens, and talks to Padme` after are some of the most powerful scenes in ANY of the starwars movies. The rage in Anakin's eyes is amazing. He IS darth vader.

    Petar:

    Yes, it truly was a fitting addition to the Star Wars legacy. The Yoda-Dooku fight was a definite highlight, but so was the humour level, and the acting of Natalie Portman. She was just beautiful, on-screen.

    The Jedi vs droids battle at the end, was absolutely excellent, and the movie also successfully gave the feeling that something foreboding is on it's way.

    Line of the movie, was by Obi-Wan to Anakin. Something along the lines of: "You'll be the death of me, one day....."

    Mjolnir VII:

    When Yoda was fighting (at the end of the movie versing Tyrannus)
    I was Laughing like mad, when I saw it! Old man MOves he seems so weak until he shows off the power.

    Offtopic it may be, this is why the Slashdot System is so brilliant. You don't post anything that might criticize your humble and goodwilling intentions. And when someone mentions that your articles are crap and only serve your own needs, then it is naturally off-topic, because it wasn't posted under the thread "Slashdot, News for Nerds, Stuff that VAtters".

    Face it. Slashdot is turning into a propaganda tool for VA, which is whole lot of smaller community than "the Nerds" which used to be your community, or atleast I thought so.

    unmodified human stem cells are innovations.

    The European patent office at least requires them to be modified in some way before being patented (also it lets the process of obtaining them be patented).
