What exactly does the "alarm cock" do? That sounds intriguing.

They need more exposition as given by Morgan Freeman.

しかも can be used to mean that, but it can also just be used to add extra information. Also, しかも has more emotion/feeling to it than それに.

I would say that しかも is better in this situation. But it's not really natural in either Japanese or English to add that kind of adverbial connector with those two sentences. I don't get why they chose to include that.

I really, really hope that this doesn't end with the girl committing suicide, because that is really something that does happen...

She cheated by copying off of her friend, who also didn't do very well.

I love living in a cash society. I almost never have less than 300 dollars (USD equivalent) on my person and I never give it a second thought. For me, it's the credit cards that are for emergencies.

To be fair, the translator is very often given little or no context (imagine an Excel document where column A says "English" and column B says "Japanese"), so it's hard to tell if a word like ”ハッキング" is being used as "now hacking" or "hacking (the concept)."

You would want to use guns that didn't have rifling so as to avoid the barrels overheating and melting off.

I would have thought that playing BioShock would kind of turn a person off from Objectivism...

For those alternate button tapping things, just pick up a pen and slide it back and forth across the buttons as quickly as you can, in a rapid scraping motion. It works every time, but don't get too rough.

I think the public transportation part is the biggest reason. When you're spending a hellish 1-3 hours per day riding buses and trains to get to and from work/school/whatever, you need some way to pass that time.

Apple still makes products. You know, the smaller/bigger/incrementally better versions of their old products that they release every 6 months or so.

In the near future, tech companies will not produce tech products. Instead, they will only produce tech patents. Thus will begin, the patent wars... (cues music)

I always thought Infinite Undiscovery referred to continually discovering things that were actually already well known/documented. Like Columbus times infinity!

Trying to find a sugar daddy is not exactly a protest...

Are you sure she had failed to teach them? Maybe she just made the test a bit too difficult.

Ah, Record of the Lodoss War brings back memories. Still, isn't that a bit obscure for your first title? How'd you come across it?

That doesn't count. Xenogears is better than everything.

Great. Now, can we get a game where Daniel Day Lewis catches babies in a basket? That would be awesome!
