I've got an idea for an MMORPG: Shit Miner. You must mine shit from the vast shit mines of Shitonia. The more shit you mine, the higher your level climbs and the more your stats increase, allowing you to mine more and better shit and purchase more and better shit-based equipment. You could even fight other shit miners in DUELS TO THE (imaginary) DEATH.
If you steal my idea, I will sue you.

Naked people are bad, unless you're over 18, in which case they're.. still mostly bad. Ah, current American culture, how quaint you are.
As far as ye olde Civil Rights debate, I have to think that any decently capitalist system would address the problem via the simple fact that most people will tend to avoid blatantly racist/sexist/whatever companies. And if the KKK starts burning crosses and lynching people again, just carry a handgun whereever you go. When it's self defense time, BOOM!

That ActionTrip picture thing is a wee bit depressing, isn't it? Is that really funny? What about the fact that you gain another year's worth of knowledge? What about the fact that everyone dies eventually? What about the fact that ActionTrip is a cliched heap of poo?

Satellite radio |

Howard Stern or no, satellite radio is already sounding the death knell for old-style radio. The FCC is too restrictive, not just with regard to the more obviously 'distasteful' shows like Howard Stern's, but also with regard to music lyrics and any serious discussion involving such 'EVIL' topics as sex and drugs.
Even if satellite radio were somehow forced to censor itself (if that ever happens I truly think America is doomed), it would still be better than old-style radio simply because it has such a wide variety of channels, and most of them are even commercial-free (and the ones with commercials have far fewer than 'free' stations). There just isn't enough bandwidth in the old spectrum for the vast selection of music that exists nowadays, much less talk radio, news, weather, whatever else I forgot..
You were fun while you lasted, AM and FM.

Why not go further where the companies are using MMORPG's as a medium for providing services directly? Do online banking through your favorite MMORPG, pay bills, manage your credit card, file your taxes, buy a car, shop for clothes, find a mate, take some online college courses, join a church, etc. What are we getting ourselves into?
How do you know you're not currently playing an MMORPG, thinking it's 'real life'? The game is just that convincing.
As these MMORPGs and Sims-type games become more and more realistic, this question will seem less and less 'out there'. Just you wait..

Does anyone have a link, or a short explanation about how a 2.4 gig machine ( my amd) is faster than a 3.4 gig pentium?
No link, but AMD simply makes better processors. Basically, AMD processors use a simpler, more RISC-like design whereas Intel tried to make a huge processing pipeline for their P4s and it didn't work out so well. See also Itanium (though people like to blame the compiler writers for that one).
HyperThreading is a nice idea and all..

Isn't that what Wired has always done?
'Phantom' will never be released, and yet Infinium appears to be making some kind of money somehow. Rich investors with no intelligence!
If indeed Infinium does ever create a product, I salute them.

D2 is fun. DS2 is fun, too, but not as fun as D2. You have to take a break from creating a self-sustaining fusion reaction with a ball of tin foil and a car battery every once in a while..

As far as HL2 being less organic than D3, characters in HL2 look far more realistic to me than characters in D3. Characters in D3 seem to made of wax, and their animations are rather robotic besides (not to mention their lips and cheeks crunching into each other in odd multiple-3d-objects-intersecting-poorly ways).
I also found the lighting in HL2 more realistic, at least as it was implemented in the game. Give me bright outdoor spaces over dimly-lit everything any day.
Oh yeah, and HL2's water was vastly better than any in D3 (was there any water in D3?).
