  1. MGS3 Spoiler on Metal Gear - Twin Snakes Delayed, Snake Eater Trailed · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You play the original Snake in MGS3 and not only that, Snake is in fact the original Metal Gear known as Metal Gear "Ellone". Very sophisticated psychic research is is what the Metal Gear is about in MGS3 and get this, it's all about psychic manipulation over time.

    It turns out the events in MGS3 are a dream which Snake has during a seizure induced by the Patriots in a VR simulation. All the while during this dream, Snake's actions are unwittingly manipulating Solid Snake in the Shadow Moses incident some 30 years in the future which is the basis of the S3 simulation in MGS2. Not only that he is preparing his demise in the future as he is in fact Psycho Mantis.

  2. The only way to solve this... on PC Mag Compares G5 to Xeon · · Score: 5, Funny

    is by Celebrity Deathmatch. Nothing like a good fist fight. What they're computers? I guess we'll have to settle for a game of chess then.

  3. Re:Article Summary on Java Desktop System Rivals XP, OSX in Usability · · Score: 1

    and I am pretty sure that is the way it was BEFORE Windows became mainstream.

    if they are heavy, why do they look so fluffy? and how the hell do they fly in the sky?

  6. use flash on How Would You Design the Voting Technology? · · Score: 1

    I'd make a shockwave flash file an what you would do is throw tomatoes at the candidates you don't want. First past the post system. Pretty damn simple.

  7. pffft, how impractical on iWorkstations? · · Score: 1

    What I want is one of those trolleys you see patients eating off while they are stil in bed in hospital. I use my computer inbed and that's the way I like it. I have been known to spend days in bed just using the computer and playing playstation and I wasn't even sick, just slack.

  8. One side effect to consider on Creatine Found to Boost Brainpower · · Score: 1

    I take creatine for my gym work outs, and yes I am a geek, and yes I also pull the chicks with my fantastic body. I am fully qualified when I tell people this because I am a pharmacist.

    Forget the body odour side effect that's cosmetic and the chicks don't seem to care.

    What you do need to know is that creatine need to be cycled. By that I mean take creatine at a recommended dose for a maximum of SIX weeks (ideally only for four weeks), then stop it for two to four weeks. Then you can start taking your creatine again.

    What happens is that creatine will retain water in your body, and continued chronic use will lead to kidney failure. Oh yeah people with a history or family history of kidney failure should avoid creatine as well.

    is Hello Kitty online. *sigh* I guess I'll have to settle for The Sims Online.

  12. Re:What about the rest of the computer? on High End Silent Cooling For Graphics Cards · · Score: 1

    I just got myself a Thermaltake Xaser III with the Thermaltake 420W PSU with PFC. The case comes with 7 fans. I'm running a stock heat sink for my P4 2.6C. Granted I only have a GeForce MMX440, but it's damn quiet, a lot quieter than my old dual P5 200MHz MMX, and my new rig stays between 25-30 deg C. Mind you it is winter here and I don't know what the Bribane summer is going to do. And the cost? US$165 for case and PSU.

  13. Re:I would recommend some exercise on How Do You Get Work Done? · · Score: 1

    I do't take caffiene for the simple fact that it interacts with the creatine I take when I work out. That is perhaps something the poster should contemplate. yes I am a geek, but since working out, I feel a lot better mentally, physically and psychologically. Plus the engery you expend will give you a better night's sleep, provided you don't do a heavy work out just before you go to bed and have adre^H^H^H^H epinepherine pumped all through your body.

    As an aside, creatine not only gives me energy to perform my exercises, but also retains water which artifically bulks me up :) Caffine would just make me piss all that water out.

  14. Re:strength of bamboo on Bamboo Bike A Reality · · Score: 1

    what's more in Hongkong, they STILL routinely use bamboo for scaffolding when they are reparing or building structures. I should think that the use it for the skyscrapers however. Bambooo is strong, do doubt about that.

  21. a fool and his money... on Smart Cellphone Would Spend Your Money · · Score: 1

  22. I am surprised on Formula One Racing Games Exclusive To PS2 · · Score: 1

    Bernie Ecclestone who handles the marketing and money side of F1 thinks, breaths and lives money. I would have thought that he would have gone with Microsoft on this one.

    How well would a Formula1 game be? Well I have been watching Formula for only 3 years and I assue the Formula 1 games would basically cars from the current/previous season, and guess what. Formula 1 is dead boring these days. The regulations on tyres, aerodynamics and fobiding ground effects make for unexciting viewing for much of the time. So if a sim was to be as real as possible, it's going to be damn hard to pass other cars if you are usingf a mid field car. Don't get me wrong, there are some exciting manoevuers in Formula 1 but not enough.

    MotoGP3 on the other hand, well Namco did a really good job of that!

  23. bioinformatics on Supportive Courses for Bioinformatics? · · Score: 1

    I am constantly confused by what is bioinformatics. I always thought it was data relating to organisms. That's a pretty damn broad definition of it, however in my experience, using bioinformatics in a search engine rarely gets what I want.

    Population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modelling is a huge field. I have a masters degree in it and as a pharmacist I can tell not a lot of knowlegde in biology is really required (if that is a problem for you). If you want cutting edge stuff there are clinical trail simulations my mentor is working on, which is I guess AI(?)

    Needless to say, anything pharmaceutical commands huge amounts of money, so if this is what yo uare looking for, check out names like Lewis Shiner, Stuart Beal, Steve Shafer and Nicholas Holford.
