The main thing I expected from this when I first saw it, and the thing that excited me about it was the possibility of interesting fabrics--possibly arbitrary fabrics that I could choose out of a huge library. I was disappointed to find tha

I think the fact that he used "Toyota" as the alien was kind of a nod at the idea that they would probably be a self-designed sentience a la your "redesigning." Also, re: "ability to have more children"--that is exactly what the evolutionar

Ok but, the speech to text ability really sucks right now. I use google voice, and the transcriptions are ALWAYS mangled. So you have the transcription, which sucks right now. Almost unusable. Then you have the translation which can be okay

I don't think those figures are really meaningful. What about the mushroom cloud of new and different bands who are all unsigned, all selling CDs and shirts, and booking shows, etc, while the giants fall? Those are the growth areas, not the

MDMA is not harmful by any reasonable definition. It's possible for overuse to cause problems, it's possible for certain people with specific preexisting conditions to have problems. That's true for asprin as well. You can't OD on MDMA. You

Weird, I've started getting more spam in my inbox than ever before. My gmail used to be entirely clean, and now I get a few messages daily that sneak past the filter.
