Not at the Dinner Table / Egyptian Unrest

I had no clue we didn't have something on this. Pretty interesting stuff for those who are following. The latest news making the rounds is that President Hosni Mubarak has been forced to relinquish his power, but he hasn't specified just when he'll be gone and how this transition of power will be handled.

So it seems they're still on square one in regards to changing their government.

The result for this question shouldn't come as a surprise. Monster Hunter got 282 votes, almost as much as the other four in the top five combined. Metal Gear Solid was second, followed by Final Fantasy, Tales and Kingdom Hearts

So basically, they want a PSP with prettier visuals.

So much for changing it up.

Downloaded some Madoka today and it took nearly half and hour because [gg] only puts up the biggest HD encodes and I'm too cheap to pay for faster downloading on those DDL sites. [dukar]sux.

Slashdot had an article yesterday that said similarly that reading off an e-reader was easier, and therefore less likely to absorb the information.

Seems like the truth to me. I have a ton of difficulty remembering stuff I read off my digital textbooks or internet resources in general, but I can clearly recall info from printed sources word for word.

According to the 4chan masses, hipster is anyone who likes something you don't. Because everything you don't like is poop, and people who would enjoy said poop are doing it ironically because they think its too DEEP for you.

At least, that's what I've managed to piece together. The word does get thrown around pretty liberally, I've seen it used against Team Ico fans, the Scott Pilgrim fanbase, Valva fanboys, Mac users, people with Facebook, fans of Big Bang theory, and even people who love retro games.

What? Getting rid of that board was a good thing, the only thing it provided was a platform for losers to cry about their girlfriends or lack of them.

If only moot felt the same way.

(seriously, the fact that there is now a board for socializing outside those boards disgusts me. Do those people have no shame?)
