Dollfie EyesGood idea but it's still in the creepy stages of development.
All robotic technology and dolls resembling humans start off as looking very creepy.
Timelapse of HiroshimaWhy do some people disable embedding on their Youtube video?
Is there a simple reason for that? I don't really get it.
Especially now when you can add info right into the video, so it can't be because they want you to read the info on the webpage,...
PSP GoI think everybody is forgetting that the PSOne at first didn't have ANY analog and many games were made for it. Later, they added analog, and only the games made there after had analog support. That did very well, so I don't see why they couldn't hav...
PSP GoI think the point is, that this is the 4th version of the PSP and they just refuse to add a 2nd analog stick when the fan base goes crazy over it. Old games don't have to be reverse compatible or require patches. The PSOne first came with no analog a...
RapelayApparently, for this specific game Rapelay, the mother and her two daughters, whom you stalk, molest, and rape, fall in love with you, the player, in the end.
I got that from some random video discussion about this game on you tube so I cannot guara...
RapelayThank you both for the feedback.
Sometimes I just feel like I'm talking to myself, so it's good to hear that some people actually read my ridiculously long comments. =P
RapelayHoho, nice point on discrimination. It seemed that you agreed with one of my posts so I allowed myself to check your own comments and it looks like we agree with each other.
The following is not aimed towards you but merely to add to the discussion....
Rapelay@Mimi.
I made this post in response to your repeated rebuttal to other people's comments with 'our freedom of speech is being taken away in the mass media everywhere already, so why the focus on this one?' / 'it's impossible to obtain freedom of spe...
Canon ElectronicsContrary to what the majority of the members think of this method, if there actually is in fact better results that are produced, I am highly fond of ideas such as these. Although I don't know why he chose to get rid of chairs specifically. I suppose...
Rapelay@Mimi:
You continuously mention censorship of the mass media but that censorship and this are two completely irrelevant issues. There is a reason mass media is censored. Media 18+ aren't censored, at least in America.
For details my comment further...
RapelayOkay. So lets say a crime is commited:
Shot in the face = Death. -> No choice in the matter.
Raped = Traumatized. -> You live and have a choice to either live out your life haunted or NOT by the tragic events that has occurred, or... kill yourself....
RapelayI respect your views on this matter, however, you're not even bothering to understanding or even think of the other person's views. You said that people who play these games should be raped. Well, there are actually people that would enjoy being rape...
RapelayGuys... censorship's #1 reason is this: Kids.
We don't want unnecessary exposure for our children at such a young age. That's why censorship exists in America.
The radio and youtube are easily accessible by children, and seeing as how pornography h...
RapelayWoah, woah. I never said I approve of banning rapelay or any other related matter. I merely countered his statement of 'everything will be okay if...'
Meaning that those two things won't solve all the problems of this issue due to the reasons I have...
RapelayThe argument here is much more basic and fundamental than the explicit content of rape in an eroge.
Rather, it's about the freedom of expression, and exposure to the mass public.
There are always two or more sides to the argument. One side is that...
Otaku GraduationI'm personally very disappointed in how some of this community's members are taking this news.
Back when he was enjoying his otaku hobbies, everybody was ecstatic about his ventures. Many respected his bravery of a self proclaimed otaku but as soon...
Japan Jury DutyMaybe they changed eligibility assessments; I heard that they have a one on one interview with you to see if you're biased/racist/etc., or not. Hence why it takes so long for the selection process.
Hmm not enough information is given by Danny as to...
Japan Jury DutyIsn't Phoenix Wright a lawyer?
A jury and a lawyer are separate entities; I don't think it's a good idea to use one to promote the other. Plus, there's the whole licensing fees and what not.
Japan Jury DutyI was always under the impression that the judge always had the final say in the case deciding whether someone is guilty or not. However, I believe that there is very little chance or very rare cases that will require a judge to go against the jury's...
Japan Jury DutyThank you for the correction. However, do you get payed during jury selection as well? From the link you gave me, it seems to give the impression that you are only payed during the days that you are actually in court as a member of the jury. I think...
Japan Jury Duty"Folks who are against the jury duty system say that they don't want to decide whether people go to prison or get the death sentence."
Whatever happened to the power of the people? Are they saying they refuse to take part in their government's actio...
Surgical MasksWhile it does not protect you from airborne bacteria, it does protect others from your sneezing/coughing liquids, which are stronger than the airborne counterpart if I'm not mistaken. It also prevents others' liquids to enter your body through your m...
Surgical MasksLets do some math here:
There are 100 masks in that box, right?
He bought 24 boxes for 120,000yen.
That makes 2400 masks for 120,000yen.
Divide 120,000yen by 2400.
You get 50yen per mask, compared to the original price of 10yen(rounded up).
So...
Tokyo CinemaYou can buy just about everything with a card in America. In most cases, however, only VISA and MasterCard are accepted due to the fact that DISCOVER and AMEX charges the retailer more for the services.
They even have mobile card transaction devices...
Japan's Economic StimulusDo nothing special with it, just deposit it into my bank til I need it.
I never buy something just because I suddenly got more money. (Paycheck, Tax Return, etc.)
Anime DeclineI just figured it was odd to have so many of them all air during the same season. Nothing wrong with the genre in itself.
It's a conspiracy! =P
Anime DeclineThis season's Anime line-up is really horrible to my taste.
Also, what's up with 3-4 of them being Medieval/old era?
The only Anime I'm waiting for each week I suppose is K-ON!
I like Hatsukoi Limited too, but that's only because I've already read...
Japan Swine Flu^Agree with you guys.
More information for anyone interested
The Swine Flu (Now called H1N1) has NOTHING to do with current pigs, swine, etc. This strain did NOT originate from pigs. The name is coincidential.
