  1. There's lots of people who do on Man Dies After 50-hour Gaming Marathon · · Score: 1

    Especially in Japan where it's almost obligatory to stay after hours and not leave before your boss for fear of being called a slacker. They call it "karoushi". Death from overwork. I would assume it's the same symptoms as extreme fatigue mixed in with hypertension and stress. Hey, that's majority of our population too...

  2. Re:Beware - only Cat 5 on 1.4mm Thick Gigabit Ethernet Cable · · Score: 1

    Actually I read the Japanese version and they call Cat5e "Enhanced category 5"/ "enhansudo kategori 5" and that's what's written in the press release. I think that this word is so technically advanced, that this word is not yet in the formal Japanese dictionary. In the tech books, yes, but translation sites probably won't pick it up. Pretty soon they'll be speaking english but with a Japanese accent.
