Extremely nerdy hard-science nerdy nerd kings are bitching about old TV shows because they were using almost made-up theoretical science as a plot device to advance the lives and drama of fictional characters for our entertainment...
Here's an article for you: Slashdot member deathtopaulw hates hard science fiction writers because they have no concept of fun and their minds exist only to crunch numbers and dwell on what is and isn't possible in a finite and boring universe.

Overclocking no longer means what it did before. It's basically intel and the motherboard manufacturers graciously allowing you to use the actual power of the processor you paid for. That's not overclocking, its reversing underclocking. I laugh every time my idiot roommate claims his computer is overclocked, when he did nothing but say "do it" in a manager program in windows.
A real fan finally? My god I thought we'd died out. Nothing has irritated me more than the hype around this movie. What happened to the fans? Star Trek was basically always a short-story medium akin to The Twilight Zone. The plots of its episodes revolving around odd bleeding-edge hypotheses from theoretical physics, and stretches of human imagination. The themes included the nature of consciousness, musings on what could possibly exist beyond our limited scope, and thoughts on war now and in the future.
This is a summer action flick. This is worthless. This is not Star Trek. JJ Abrams is a moron on a level I have never observed before. Lost is not quality storytelling. Lost is an endless sea of twists and convolution. The man should never have been allowed near the franchise. What's more depressing though, is that everyone seems to have jumped ship... or never understood to begin with.
Are you serious?
Let me tell you a little secret, bittorrent communities (especially TPB) are a horrible place to spread a concept. They are very loosely knit, with very few members or even users frequenting the forums and discussing things. No discussion means no recommendations from other users. No recommendations means your word is never spread. How is someone supposed to glean a band out of thin air, try every new music torrent that is posted? Filesharing is an extremely effective method in other areas though. I have been an active user on Soulseek for probably 5 years, and participate in several different music communities there. Nothing else in my life has influenced my taste more than the people I've met in the chatrooms there. And I'll just tell you right now that I'm about as far off the mainstream track as you can get.
When is the true pop-culture's obsession with the term "indie" going to die? Just because it's been done by two fat guys in their basement does not make it instantly praiseworthy. These games are mildly entertaining for when you're sick of playing better ones.
Too bad there are no directors still living that are capable of capturing what actually makes this work a masterpiece. I look forward to not even watching this movie.
But it is in no way "scary." I sure laugh my fuckin ass off though.
They're talking about the death of truly suspenseful, terrifying games. Games with a pace so painfully slow, and fearful satisfaction so rare and powerful that you're afraid to turn the system back on. In all honesty that genre died a long time ago.
Whether they read every word or not is irrelevant. The fact that they consistently encroach further upon the privacy of their own people is the real point to get from this. There have been no signs of letting up, and true spying is now only a few steps away.
You're ruining it. Diablo is not WoW. It is not friendly. It is not "fun." It's about who can click fastest and who can exploit hardest. Who can scam the most. It's about getting to the top by any means, and it's not a friendly world.
This is not a normal encyclopedia where having an entry takes up literal space on a page, and technically slows you down when finding the article you're actually looking for. This is the internet, where if you don't care about the many variations on the RX-78 Gundam, you don't have to ever see them. Unless wikipedia is running their fucking site off of an old 20 gig IDE hard drive, there's no reason to be deleting entries that are well-written and useful to someone.
Back in the day, upon finding a friend's phone unattended, I used to change their language to something unintelligible. These days, I leave the language alone and go straight for the GPS tracker setting. That's right, I opt my friends in for tracking by the government. Pretty funny!
Maybe with the idiot responsible for horrible british comedy dead, the nation can thrive. Not much hope in that though, they've been unfunny for centuries.
haha
You know nothing about the problem do you. The "warming" in the phrase has little to do with the concept of temperature, and more to do with the concept of energy. When you have a fuckton more energy in a system like the earth's, things start fluctuating far more intensely. This makes the hots hotter, the colds colder, and the batshit crazy stuff like hurricanes... well... hurricanier
Why spend the time to make them better if people will buy the crap anyway? There will always be the occasional good 3rd party game from a real company like capcom and stuff. The rest will be for the idiots.

Look at that, nobody cares either.

Lock-in has nothing to do with a monopoly. It's their player, they can do whatever they want with it. Buy a different player.

Just do it better.
It's free.
AMELIAAAAAAAAAAA
It'll work only for named heroes and important villains, all the other astronauts are fucked.
hahahaha Gundam jokes are rare here, and for some reason I didn't think of that one. Good call sir.
These new awful action games have absolutely nothing to do with Survival Horror anymore. They need their own genre title.
Furthermore, if you're actually scared by these games... you're a lamer on a hilarious level. Don't play Silent Hill.

Now we can fucking click through miles of text and menus with our minds
No more wasting energy moving that one finger.
Holy fuck Square RPGs are pure fucking bullshit

Deletionism is just one big stupid power trip.

Except they don't want our stuff. They want us out of their affairs, and to stop babying Israel. I say give it to them.
That's.... exactly what I said. It manifests its self in far more dangerous forms than mere heat.

Friendster is the perfect place to grab a hot asian girlfriend? I see a social networking un-collapse in their future.
this is why I love eve
the developers don't try to shelter their users
they openly designed it so there could be things like this.
eve is a real mmo the way it should be done
