Actually there are plenty of critters that keep their package internally and extend for reproduction - dolphins are an example. There’s been lots of discussion and not a few jokes over the fact that primates and many other mammals dangle. I can understand the the notion of the penis doing this as a show of dominance…

Absolutely, the overall consistency of SCTV was far higher and more incisive. Tony Rosata suffered a lot - he had a very rare syndrome later in life that made him believe those around him were replaced by duplicates. He thought his wife and baby were clones out to get him and it developed to the point that things…

This sort of gets into the whole argument about what constitutes importance or how much reverence we’re supposed to give to pure fame. I get sick of people arguing that just because someone hit the motherlode that makes them shrewd, incredibly clever and we’re supposed to tip our hat out of acknowledgement. Jerry…

I’m putting myself in the position of someone who owns a lot of second hand cars, a dealer, perhaps a junk yard owner, and there’s this monstrous army bearing down on you and you’re fairly certain you’ll be occupied. Occupying armies fighting wars need mechanical and metal parts. Why wait to have your yard…

Correct. It's not even on the periphery of weird.

This is the problem with these massive studios and AAA level gaming projects - the bean counters run things, the moment someone miscalculates the project a lot of decent people lose their jobs in one fell swoop.

Mr Grumpy here. This is a theme park ride, not a mainstream gaming purchase. VR will crash and burn, except for aficionados. That is all.

It’s hard to get crazy worked up about bovine baby food, although I like my milk and cookies. Cheese is awesome and I fully support cheese makers being allowed to use raw milk, but otherwise I'm lurving that Louis Pasteur. A little history reading might do people some good.

How old is this guy? What did he actually expect from a first project based around such a fluffy concept? The only drama I’m seeing here is from him. He wasn’t born in a vacuum - as a customer base, gamers are the cheapest, most demanding, unreasonable, whiney demographic around. He should have expected lots of nasty,…

I just got a new beefed up system so I defiantly set everything to 11 and while most of the game is fast, it's always those key moments of action when they cut to another view that everything goes jerky and it takes you out of the moment. Ended up letting auto detect do it's thing and it's fine now. Pretty much…

As an old man who saw the original in 77 (no, I only lined up 5 times), I can assure you little things like this just made me go squee all the louder. Keep in mind that back then scifi movies were all about this shiny magic-like tech that made you go “oooo”. Also keep in mind that brick sized cell phones were still…

Sorry, but what a load. There’s not one single study that shows there is any sort of listening, appreciation or health benefits for foetuses “listening” to music. It’s a marketing ploy to make people money that targets one of the most susceptible demographics out there. Mom listening to music, feeling good and passing…

It would require serious stupidity on the part of someone “returning” the product, hoping to line up his scam with incompetent staff not doing the most basic look inside the box. It’s attempted fraud if he tries it and fails, I can’t believe it’s not an inside job.

You know, jerk move on some staff member or an ass “returning” the product, but good god some perspective here. The whole article and doubtlessly all the mainstream articles are playing it like a house burned down. It’s not that big of a deal, the kid will get over his “trauma” and get a replacement unit, stop…

I know I sound like a schmoe, but being limited to physical books immediately means the only ones of interest are technical or coffee table books, which typically ramp up into the high 2/low 3 figure range, thus with the $10 limit that really equates to 10%. But yup, thanks for the deal anyway...

That's pretty cool, Russian design always leaned heavily towards FRICKIN HUGE, and that tug is amazing. Looks a tad dangerous walking around on that deck with no safety lines! There's a documentary floating around about the largest icebreaker in the world, yes, it's Russian and, of course, Atomic Powered!

You’re absolutely correct, given WW2 dogfighting was the visual reference for SW, but it doesn’t end there - basically every popular space opera does the same thing. Even supposedly more hard science shows have physics fail throughout in order to tell a story or be exciting. Basically space isn’t really a good…

Somebody tell that dude before he turns his back on a well paying job that battling on Hoth as a rebel is seriously unbalanced.

Don’t understand the appeal of the console FPS - that jerky slide-slide-slide and the only way you can live is with auto aim. I’d only consider this with a mouse keyboard interface otherwise you aren’t connected to the world. Even with that, I’m concerned about the auto match and no private server mentality - again a…

I agree with a lot of points, but I think it’s a bit overstated once you hit the early 1900s. Sure, it probably sucked to be a woman in the days before modern feminine hygiene, in many corners toilet paper was a luxury, and oh - did I mention it probably sucked to be a woman? Or black? Jewish? Etc. Sure there was…
