They don't need other markets to succeed. They don't "need" those markets but they want them. It will help to solidify China's position as the third superpower. There are incentives for those African nations to he

The future of these pirate TV devices is so uncertain that I don't understand why people are willing to pay so much for them. I recently saw something called an ISTV that was selling for around $400. I can't imagine investing that

I wonder if there will be the same amount of political infighting and fiefdoms we see on WikiPedia. Influential editors burying stories that don't serve their personal political agendas and the like.

The last time I was near Baltimore, I saw one of those things and it gave me the creeps. What really stuck with me was the way the locals blithely accepted it, like "Oh, those are always up there".

I was struck by the lack of "Below The Root", that was the game that made me a computer gamer. Now that I think of it, maybe it was more of an Adventure game than a true RPG but it still was influential to me.

You don't pay taxes working from home? I suspect there's no "occupational privilege tax" if you're working from home. I live in the suburbs and work in the city and for the privilege of having a job, I have to pay

IV was such a disappointment to me that I haven't even tried V yet. SA felt so expansive and open to me that when I played IV, it felt like I was trapped on story-telling rails. Have they reversed that trend in V?

That's a risk than an artist assumes when he or she publishes a work. In the past 10 years, I have met the director of my favorite film and my favorite musician. I tried to be as respectful of their privacy as possible but still wanted

The Russians did some research into cadaveric blood transfusions. The blood is still usable for several hours after clinical death. I'm not sure about the suitability of using blood from old, sick and/or heavily medicated people.

Intel's chips continued to advance after those designed by the AIM Alliance (Apple IBM Motorola) hit their ceiling, so I'm not sure it was just R&D budget. I was impressed by the performance of the PowerPC 970 but much sooner

I have a difficult time understanding how Accenture is still in business but your scenario makes sense. Having worked a large (billion dollar scale) project with Accenture, I have seen what a mixed bag they can be. They brought on some abso

Any burning organic matter will contain carcinogens. Breathing a constant supply of wood smoke will wreak havoc on one's lungs. I'd be curious to find out if there's any place with a history of consumption of fresh tobacco le

It seems, like usual for American police, officers are insensitive to anything but violence; no logic, just apply force. This is correct and I believe it's by design. Law enforcement officers are selected for high aggression and high

The newest AAA game I have bought in the past few years was Fallout 4 and even though I bought it in November, I still haven't installed it yet. A few weeks ago, I started another new game of Carrier Command. It's still the same g

I had a Mac Plus with an Apple HD 20 hard drive. It wasn't internal but it was made for the Plus. It was an odd beast that connected to the external floppy connector.
