  1. Problem solving + fun + relaxing on Creative Games sans Violence? · · Score: 1

    I remember a game from around 96 called Endorfun.

    It starts out simple, rolling around a cube on a grid, going after colored boxes. The cube is a different color on each side, and you have to roll over the colored grid square with the same color on top of the cube. Once you get the hang of it, it makes small increases in difficulty.

    It challenges creativity, thinking of different ways to land the cube on the colored grid with the correct color on top, and also challenges problem solving skills.

    The kicker is that behind the music, it has positive reinforcement subliminal messages.

  2. Impossible web design on World's Worst Dog'n'Pony Shows · · Score: 1

    Years back our sales guy sold a website idea to a tv-commercial production company. He got the job by telling them we would provide full-screen animation "no problem!" Well, it was a BIG problem. Luckily, Macromedia had bought Futurespash, so we just had to delay the client a few months until they released Flash. On the bright side, they had one of the first fullpage flash sites on the net.

  3. If you really like the show... on Lone Gunmen Get the Axe From Fox · · Score: 1

    Then support them, and shoot an email to: askfox@foxinc.com And let them know your opinion on the cancellation.

  4. What is so sensitive he can't see? on Tito In Space · · Score: 2
    They will be forced to disrupt certain experiments because of his presence. It's not safe for the visitor or the crew.

    I am still wondering why that is. Do they really think he will come running in with a bag of chips ala Homer in Space to screw up their experiments? Or are they conducting experiments too sensitive for him to see?

  5. Anonimity can bring out the worst... on Anonymous Speech Litigation · · Score: 2

    I fully support anonymous speech, I think someone who is wary of repurcussions can use anonimity as an outlet to say what they really want/need to. I just wish that it less often meant a person being annoying, rude, spreading false info, or just being a flat out asshole... unfortunately a complete lack of consequences for actions can really being out the nasty side of people.

  6. Cost on Compulsory Licensing for Online Music? · · Score: 1

    I think the the way mp3's have been traded in the past, first on sites, then on napster, will have turned off anyone to actually paying for downloaded music. I would however like to see record companies lose some copyright priveleges simply for being such asses about napster; they took what could have potentially have been the best market tracking tool for music they could ever ask for and forced it to shutdown rather than trying to reach some sort of agreement that benefited themselves, napster, and all of us.

  7. Re:I'm impressed.... on Complete Transformers Generation One Set on ebay · · Score: 1

    Ok I'm not the only one that noticed that. It even has the "in-between" mode where it is a jet with arms to the side and legs beneath, just like in Robotech. I still have this one in a box of old toys, I must have been lucky and gotten a sturdy one because I put it through hell and it is still around, and only missing one sticker.

  8. I hope... on 'Rendezvous With Rama' - The Movie · · Score: 1

    That this movie doesn't end up like the adaption of Battlefield Earth to the big screen. I am still trying to recover from that...I saw it for free and still felt cheated.
