Okay, maybe there's stuff I'm missing here. First off to work be it 20KMs or taller AFAIK a space elevator ends up being more like a large building at the base that slowly reduces its cross section as it climbs. So with that in mind isn't one of the major hurdles of building tall buildings...

This whole question is at the heart of what's wrong with EA, or any big company. Companies as they grow develop more and more momentum. When they're young they don't develop much and it runs out quickly if there isn't lots of energy being introduced. That's one of the reasons small promising...

Actually he mentioned a cold about a month or two ago, and his voice has been coming and going ever since. It was worse today is all. I hope Bob's gone to the doctor to find out what's going on. It might just be allergies coinciding with the cold's departure, but if a cold lasts more than a few...

I'm in the same boat as you my friend and it sucks balls! But I'm not here to commiserate, but to comment on the article. I hate science like this, absolutely loath it. It draws conclusions that while appearing to be supported by the data really aren't any more than others would be. It...

Very true. The problem is, that when you do have a game that pretty much gets everything right but doesn't have jaw dropping gorgeous graphics the whining starts and just goes on and on. Take M&M X Legacy for example. While grid turn based game play might not be to everyone's liking (I love it...

^^ This ^^ Epic has moved on from UT, I'm not even certain how much they want to create games for the next generation. But they do want their latest and greatest engine in all the games to come. I'm sure when all the figures are in, selling the tech to make next generation games is both more...

I've found that when Bob dislikes a movie it's a 50/50 shot on my disliking it too. But anytime he gives a big thumbs up it' always on the money. Pumped that this is a great comedy after lately watching so many misses. Also thrilled that Seth Rogen has given up on his "leading man" aspirations...

It all depends on the slant they go with I'd say. I mean I thought 21 Jump Street was going to suck balls, especially considering that I'm not a big Jonah Hill fan (hated Superbad) also never even considered the possibility that Tatum would have any comedic chops, and I was wrong I'm glad to...

Is Zenimax being a total douche with this lawsuit or does it have merit? That's the whole point of a lawsuit to begin with. Zenimax quite likely took a long look at their position in this whole thing and then asked their legal department what they thought. The answer was probably vague...

Well everyone stating their opinion that this won't work have a point, I only have one question, got any better ideas? Thing is, sometimes the stupidest/silliest ideas if they actually gain a bit of traction can surprise you. Like others have said it'll just take a couple of the big boys that...

Wow, that's so much better than the pissing into the wind I've been doing. Gotta try that next time, it'll save on laundry.

^^^This^^^ I don't think Notch had any idea what Minecraft was going to turn into. I mean his first upload was pretty much a "Hey, here's something I'm screwing around with check it out if you want." And it turn into a beast overnight. Now that Jens and his team has taken development over I...

It's all my fault, seriously it is. I didn't know what a really good show it was, and even though The Comedy Network was actually airing repeats, I just never found a hole in my schedule to watch it. Well I could of made the time if I tried hard enough, but... I never knew..... In fact if I...

I've watched a few episodes when I couldn't find anything better (I've cut my cable so that'll be ending) and it's alright, not great, just alright. Contrived at points but much more realistic than something like that Hatfields and McCoys or Gold Rush crap. As the old saying goes "you get what...

As a lifelong Canuck, I thinks it's because to many southern American's Canada is that weird place up north with snow 11 months of the year and that's about it. So it's assumed if you use Ontario instead of Canada that'll just confuse the issue more.
