I dropped Netflix a couple of months ago and switched to Blockbuster. I got tired of them constantly raising prices on me, and I didn't want to pay for a streaming service I almost never used. So far, no complaints with Blockbuster. They also rent video games, so I'm thinking about dropping Gamefly as well. I'd have done that already if they had separate game/movie queues.
Now I'm just hoping they don't completely go out of business. |

| I'm just happy it's in the hands of a top tier creator like Oeming. Usually companies just see the comics as a marketing tool, and farm it out to the lowest bidder. With Oeming helming the project, this has the chance of actually being good. |

Take the Beach Boys albums for example. 2 hits and lots of terrible filler.
You couldn't have picked a worse example. Pet Sounds is one of the best albums off all times |

I've started to notice the same problem as the author. It's really only a problem with games that require you to memorize combos. If I don't play them for a few weeks, I'll have forgotten the combos, and also have lost the muscle memory. This is almost never a problem with FPS, since the controls are very similar. It's even less of a problem on PC games where I always remap the controls, so "throw grenade" is always the same key.
I don't think making the games easier is the solution, but more standard controls would help, and the ability to completely remap console buttons. Combo based games should really include a practice mode, as well. |

I don't know why Wing Commander hasn't been fully re-made yet. It was practically a console game to begin with. Same with X-wing.
Space combat games seem to have inexplicably died off as a genre. |

I don't see a problem with the GPS stuff. In Minnesota - you still need a warrant.
Under this ruling, they DON'T need a warrant. |

| I'm shocked that the evolution article got published. The authors clearly failed to understand the basics of the theory. The quote at the end of the article sums up the problem pretty well. |

| Another Aeropress fan here. I've been using it almost every morning for a couple of years. For me, it's also the fastest method. Brew time is only about 30-40 seconds, so I can make a cup in under 1 minute, and cleanup is also very fast. The only downside is that you go through a lot of grounds, since I use 3 scoops for a 14 oz mug. |

| Let us know what you think about the game in a couple more weeks. The original was plenty of fun for a short while, and had lots of very glowing reviews when first released, but it got real old real fast. With only 5 maps (and just 2 good ones from what I hear), I'm wondering if we'll see the same thing with L4D2. |

Except the bulk of those using emergency rooms are illegal immigrants.
You might want to do at least a little fact checking before spouting off. Some quick checking shows estimates of over 40 million uninsured in 2007, with around 7 million of those being illegal immigrants. So, a large majority of uninsured people in the US are not illegal. I'd also point out that many illegal immigrants pay taxes. |

| If this is fear mongering, she's doing a pretty poor job of it, IMHO. Most of this is about mandated health care, which I'd think the conservatives would be all for. Right now, taxpayers are carrying the load for all those people who don't have their own health care, and are using the emergency rooms as their primary care. The mandate will make those people take responsibility for their own health care instead of the rest of us paying for them. |

| There are so many great comic book artists, but these promotional books always, always go for the cheap look. You'd think with all the money they've got they could afford to hire a top artist. |

I have a PS3. I like my PS3. It's given me no problems and I've played some great (and not-so great) games on it.
But, I swear, Sony's Playstation division is run by a bunch of retarded monkeys. Between this, removing Linux support, and the step backwards that is the 3.0 firmware update, it's like the whole thing is being steered by a marketing department that has no idea how to market to gamers. |

Munn may be pretty, but she's not so hot to overcome how annoying and un-funny she is. Sound down, for me.
I find the show a lot more watchable when they've had Chris and/or Allison hosting. |

Actually, a lot of people seem to think organic stuff has more nutrients.
Which, somewhat to my surprise, it does. From the article: "A small number of differences in nutrient content were found to exist between organically and conventionally produced crops and livestock"
Organic eggs can contain 4 times the level of omega-3 fatty acids as conventional. |

It's not that people expected free content and updates. In fact, it's the opposite. People paid much more for the game than they'd normally be willing to shell out, based on the expectation that there would be more content down the line. Valve may have never outright claimed it was coming, but it was expected based on their past actions, and they did nothing to play down those expectations.
In essence, people pre-paid for content, which now looks like will never arrive, so they feel ripped-off. |
