I don't know if they are. Emulating games is not really preserving them in a sense, because it can't reproduce the hardware or experience as it actually was very well. Like you can play Ridge Racer type 4 in emulation, but part of

Look at how retail has changed in the past 30 years. I usually point out video rental stores as an example of technological disruption. Rental stores and stores that offered rentals as part of their mix made up something like 45,000 locatio

So here's the thing. What do those people do? tech people have been automating jobs away and insisting the future is code for a long time now. Now all of a sudden we get "coding is hard" and the non-traditional bootcamp educa

Eh, they'll die off. Tokypop used to try and license Korean manhwa here a while back ago, among other publishers. If you remember the movie the Priest, that was about as famous as it got here. I used to read it, usually it was the same

Dogs are kids without the sacrfice. A dog will never say he hates you, will not put you through nine months of pregnancy and labor to have, won't force you to give up your career pushing spreadsheets/work lots of overtime hours, w

It's tough because you have to acknowledge that the hate comes from other women, in part because the mommy bloggers are selling an idealized identity of women; the charmingly neurotic upper class woman with a loving but quirky husband,

Is it true, though? You are arguing that its baseless propaganda without refuting anything. Just that the evolution of the claims has gotten more severe. The best argument if so is just the truth. Link sources and publish things showing the

Eh, I don't like this article. Of course the gulag makes seeking happiness absurd, but it destroys all belief systems. The gulag destroys a faith in human goodness too, or a faith in social justice, or in individual will. It destroys r

From zillow, the median home price there is 900k. The median rent is 3,000 a month. It is literally unaffordable to most people to do what you do; the yearly amount you pay in rent alone is the yearly salary of many other people. You'

National Velvet was a movie released in 1944 starring a young Elizabeth Taylor and Mickey Rooney. It's about steeplechase, but it won two Oscars and is probably one of the biggest horse girl movies out there. Maybe it helped create the

No, actually in my area they decreased. The bicycle shop we had for twenty years closed, probably because the price of enthusiast bicycles were getting too high. We had a phase with razor gas and electric scooters and hoverboards, but they

Not nostalgia I think, but a search for texture and warmth. Digital media has a very glossy, smooth, and cool look to it. How ever that feels very mannered and sterile. Imperfections like grain evoke a sense of texture to works that add int

You're using an outlier library if it has 3-D printers. The average library is more a net cafe with a small amount of books and no "cafe" part. Essentially it's a worse bookstore with worse hours, but free content. My lo

I don't think it will be possible. A gas station can refuel 20 cars per hour; there's no way you can do that with a charging station. Probably they would die out, and hotels would do long distance charging, since you need to charg

Surprised you don't see this. A big issue with online clothes shopping is buying it sight unseen. By returning clothing there, people may just say to heck with it and buy comparable clothes at Kohl's, since they can try them on an

The problem is many jobs with high socialiability and variability as mentioned in the article are often very time demanding jobs that require constant coverage. There are also financial realities in that people are often expensive to add, t

If they could terraform another planet, they could probably just fix mars instead. There are a lot of weird contradictions in these kind of stories. Like they can move an entire planet's worth of people, but can't make a data repo

It's possible that the kind of extraterrestrial beings that could do any form of FTL travel wouldn't even think in terms of "outposts" or "refuel." The task is so immense that any technology capable of doing it

This has very little to do with social media. It helps to read the linked espn article, which goes into far greater detail. http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/12833146/instagr... &quot

Cool, let's do the same for programmers then. everyone here no longer is allowed to copyright or trademark software or hardware. If you want to develop it, you work for free, and you can flip burgers or something to pay for it. Because

The Pokemon games are very complex for games designed for children, as are games like Yokai Watch. The first game is probably one of the most complex 8-bit console RPGS, I'd think. But they really aren't children's games in t

I don't think Christians (theism is just a code word for this, true lower-case theists are rare) feel this way, since they acknowledge the world is not pristine due to the fall of man, and suffering and pain exist. Usually the argument
