With a few extra USB devices, I can do anything with my laptop that I can do with my phone, with the exception of put it in my pocket. Try programming, compiling and emulating a smartphone application on a smartphone.

@Anekanta - Destroyer of Worlds!!!: So modern irrigation is just a myth?

@Timstuff: outdated? It's not like the games are being changed. And it's a nostalgia keepsake. Something that guests look through when they sit on the couch and say, "Awesome, I remember this game!" And then you get to talk about classic adventure games with them.

This completely redefines 'Jello Shot'.

The reason why humans have forward-facing eyes is because we are predators and need to accurately judge distance to and focus on a single prey.
