I would be totally down for a Denver the Last Dinosaur movie reboot. Preferably a gritty live-action reimagining.

One benefit to cutting cable you don't usually think about: you may waste less time. I used to come home and want to chill out for a bit so I'd turn on the TV and scroll through the channels but nothing would be on. So I'd watch an episode of Ice Road Truckers or some cake baking show that I didn't care about at all,…

Best city in the US, maybe? Best in the world? Come live in Tokyo for a while.

Soy sauce is salt. It brings out the flavor of the fish. If you let the rice absorb a teaspoon of soy sauce, you just end up tasting soy sauce.

I'm being That Guy but WERE. What if Zelda WERE a girl! And yes, I know in fact Zelda WAS a girl, but the grammar of the sentence demands were.

Um, grew up in the US on both coasts. I dunno, I grew up eating runny eggs for breakfast, so I never had a problem with them. I mean, sure there's a chance of salmonella, but just what is that chance, really? You could get food poisoning from practically anything. I'm not going to cook my steaks well done because of a…

Some of these I get! Some of these, less so. For example, there are tons of souvenir shops. However, what foreigners buy as souvenirs and what Japanese people buy tend to be different: for Japanese, souvenirs tend to be snacks and sweets, while many foreigners imagine souvenirs as t-shirts, mugs, and key chains.

OMG. Gyudon with hanjuku tamago (soft boiled egg) from Yoshinoya pretty much kept me alive when I was studying abroad in Tokyo. It was like 350 yen back then and SO much protein. Just seeing this picture makes me hungry for it again.

However! Withdrawing money in Japan if you are visiting is a giant pain in the ass. Over the years, I've seen many friends and colleagues have a tough time dealing with ATMS and banks that are geared for domestic customers and not international ones.

Oh, I love how he reframed "free-to-play" as "free-to-start." Everyone should start using this terminology forthwith.

I have one of these near my house, but it sells all kinds of vegetables, not just tomatoes.

Rather than framerate or resolution per se, what I care more about is that the game meet a certain minimum level of graphic quality (and that minimum increases as technology advances). Which means a certain minimum texture resolution, character model complexity etc. The screen resolution itself isn't as important as…

I get it. It's the "soap opera effect" people get when you use motion interpolation on HDTVs, that effectively bumps up the frame rate of TV shows and movies and makes them look like cheap soap operas. My advice is to just turn that on in you TV and watch a bunch of stuff. You get used to it eventually and stop…

Excellent.

I can't find a lot of info on this particular case, but I once worked for a short while at a job where I had to negotiate license contracts, and I can tell you those contracts are very specific. You buy rights to use content in one product, or distribute it in one form, and the copyright holder retains all other…

That's a rockin' door handle.

And you're done! This method may take a little extra work simply because, for the unfamiliar, GIMP's interface can be a bit troublesome, but if you're on a Mac or Linux machine, GIMP is right there by your side.
