The important thing is now to map all this crap to something useful. Sure, we know what makes up all of our chromosomes. That's great. We won't start seeing true breakthroughs until we identify what each gene is doing and how it causes traits, diseases etc.

Pre-ordered a DS Lite the other day to replace my current original DS. Also pre-ordered the new Mario Bros. game, and I just so happen to have work off Tuesday so I can get it :wink: Right now I'm playing Partner's in Time. Really good game, has a bit of RPG flavor to it if you're into that sort of ...

I didn't tell her to stop it, nor did I ask to have the Powers That Be(TM) stop it from being said. I was voicing my opinion on the matter.

Hey, at least it's something still.

Smilebit is apparently working on 'Virtua Striker 4 Ver. 2006'. Take it for what you will.

Overworks comes up with bubkis. It seriously looks like Noriyoshi Ooba fell off the face of the earth.

Nope, not that I recall anyway. Tempest and I just happen to remember a lot of the same obscure crap. It's really weird sometimes.

I felt that way when Devil May Cry 3 was announced, or as I call it 'That Dark Guy Might Weep 3'. The sequels are really getting annoying. Someone, PLEASE, kill the Rainbow Six series. It's getting really old. A lot of the next-gen games look similar right now, I think, because we're still in the 's...

Quoted for truthiness. This sort of thing came up last night at Ayanami's. It's extremely rare you hear about a GC dying.

Double post? Psi and I actually talked about this earlier. If he were to edit the post, it wouldn't look new to him - it'd still have the old post date on it. I editted the final post in the DS thread in Video Gaming and it looked to me like it was old. So I can understand where he would make a new...

Nah, blur in Photoshop is too sketchy just to kill jaggies. I actually ended up doing a 255 tolerance Magic Wand and inversing the selection. I expanded that by 1px, then deleted. Posted above is the result. The uniform is textured in the original, I don't believe it was supposed to be 'grainy'.

On just about a nightly basis, Ayanami, Tempest, The Fallen and Ramiel (Ayanami's brother) and others talk about the consoles. Something that has come up time-to-time is the inflation adjusted price of consoles. I had run some numbers here and there to compare Xbox1/360, PS1/2/3, GC/Wii (predicted $...

I know that everyone's a bit panicky since the terrorists attacks, but bringing the public to fulfil other people's obligation is a bit extreme. And I think this program may draw prejudice from some viewers. Say, if an Arab was walking down the train station late at night, some people may call the ...
