    Word. I don't usually like to make gross generalizations (was that one right there?), but I think Holland is making an exceptional case for itself as being a Better Place (TM).

  9. Re:Uh oh, We've got to the explaining to do... on Japanese Digital TV Viewers Complain About DRM Restrictions · · Score: 5, Interesting

    we don't have any explaining to do. we've got TV modding to do! enter a new mod-chip industry. i'm thinking you stick a little doo-dad in between the signal decoder and the output to the screen.

    if i'm thinkin' it, then chances are there's an enterprising korean kid somewhere who can actually do it with little more than some chop sticks and a little chicken wire.

    i'm inclined to agree. i weighed myself on friday when i got home from work, and then again last night (monday). i lost five pounds. what happened in between? about five hours of soccer in 80+ degree heat.

    but yea that being said, DDR is great! it's also something my girlfriend and i can do together.

  12. Re:Is there really a need for the broadband connec on Sony Hints on PS3, PSP, and PS2 Plans · · Score: 1

    i think one of the serious pros of multiplayer is that what you really get is cheap AI. developing AI gets extremely complicated as the complication of the game increases, and you may have noticed that games are really complicated these days! AI for pong was easy.

    as broadband becomes more common, this becomes a more viable strategy. it may be easier to develop good multiplayer code than to develop a complex AI.

    pathing issues are common with many game AIs, but if a real opponent gets stuck in a corner, you can just shoot him/her, type in "n00b" and get on with your life. i find this infinitely preferable to playing against a computer that sometimes has to cheat in order to present a sufficient difficulty level.

  13. Re:And a recent interview on Sci Fi Channel Plans 'Earthsea' Miniseries · · Score: 1

    if you watch one of the "behind the scenes" specials about friends (i believe it was the one right before the 10th season), they talk about how they use the actual laughs from the studio audience. sometimes they have to add a little and sometimes they trim it down a bit to get the desired effect. or so they say.

    This doesn't have anything to do with China's manned space mission, does it? I mean, now that China's got a man up in space (albeit temporarily), the USA wants its domination of space back?
    If the US dominates space, why are their astronauts going up (and coming down too!) in the Soyuzes.
