No, expectations did not grant him this ability, practice did. It isn't exactly a shocking revelation that practicing a skill over and over again, for years, will rewire your brain (this is what neuroplasticity means). I am still not certain what you are getting at. The reason why I asked...

You are welcome to explain how neuroplasticity of the visual cortex is related to population scale gender differences. Generally. Edit: My Bad, I skipped the prologue and listened to the rest. This still doesn't dispute anything we've discussed in this thread. No one has ever said that...

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. This story couldn't be any more unrelated to the topic at hand (you also apparently don't know any blind people).

Well hello, what do we have here? Looks like Silverstone just released theSG13, a successor to the SG05 this year. This might actually be a good solution for me. It is exactly 9mm longer, which SHOULD fit the MSI 970. I'll wait for confirmation, but this is good news as the case is...

Thank you for all the advice. I looked into the many options (including the custom case) and decided that I should either mod my current one to fit the card or just forget about the whole thing. The ITX cards run hot and loud, and they don't quite hit the speeds of the full sized versions...

Actually, I think I might make a custom case out of acrylic or polycarbonate... might be a fun and interesting project. We have some cardboard lying around, I should mock it up.

Thank you. I do really want one, unfortunately it seems like it won't fit in my case unless I get the inferior performing "itx" models I am contemplating modding my case or maybe even doing a slight rebuild. More money though for a computer I only built a year ago... although I might be...

my monitor is 1920x1200, mostly everything (aside from sports and racing games). I would say I probably tend to play FPS's less overall because I play a few of the single player ones and overall am not a big fan of AAA games. However, there are a few games that I have sunk hundreds of hours...

I have a luxury problem, I have no idea what to use my xmas bonus on. I basically have ~$500 (whatever one of the 2 major consoles costs) to spend at an electronics store... but there isn't really anything I want or need. I was THINKING about upgrading my GTX760 to a GTX970 (assuming it fits...

I didn't comb through the thread, is there an EU server that rerolled plays on?

If you want some advice from a guy with no kids (so talking out of my ass) then read on. What was important to my upbringing, in retrospect, was how I was taught by my father especially (for all his other faults) that nopersonhad a right to lay their hands on any otherpersonwithout their...

Same, way more than you would think based on the amount of content in the game. I even enjoyed the PvE as bare bones as it was, and often played with my girlfriend.

From everything I've seen and read it is probably closest to a first person Global Agenda, which is shooter heavy blend of 3PS and MMORPG.

I haven't read the book, no, nor do I plan on it, she is pretty clearly crazy and full of idiotic ideas. Whether the actions should be classified as sexual abuse or not depends almost entirely on her age when the incidents happened. I read both articles, and, assuming the ages stated were...

Pretty much. A 7 year old being curious about her body and the bodies of other people is not sexual abuse, and they are idiots and wrong for insinuating such. Now, I don't know if that is legal libel, that is for the courts to decide. The issue was that their original story apparently...

Yea,WAYdifferent. 7 year olds are very curious about bodies in an innocent way, playing doctor and all that. This isn't abnormal behavior for a 7-year old and is absolutelynotsexual abuse. That story went from, "She needs to seek professional help immediately" to *yawn*. I guess maybe the...

What the actual fuck? Is that for real? People are atuniversityby 17 (I was)... I don't even know what to make of that excerpt, can anyone confirm whether it is in context or not?

I... actually that is reasonable. Twitch not only has a right to, but I think should, establish a set of logical, fair and evenly applied community standards just like societies do. There are plenty of places on the internet to get webcam T&A, twitch doesn't really need to be another one...

Maybe? They are different enough that I can't say for certain either way. The Total War games give up some of the complex management and diplomacy aspects of being a "King" in exchange for the immediate and visceral core fantasy of being a "Battlefield Commander." I'd say Total War is at...

I am going to politely disagree with AgrazaOther games do parts of what Rome 2 does better. Paradox games do diplomacy better for example, other games probably do RTT better, but there is no game that puts everything together into a single unified experience (I can't stress enough how difficult...

Pretty excited for this, I've played Rome 2 for a couple hundred hours at this point and still enjoy it (have an IA Egypt campaign wrapping up). I played it around launch for ~50 hours, and while I liked it better than launch Shogun 2, due to the bugs it couldn't match FotS era Shogun 2. I...

Great! Thanks for letting me know.

Hmm, everything looks great except that I prefer the Windows 8 start screen, I hope there is an option to switch back to it.

I think you mean Metroid M, Prime is a work of art.

That paragraph is a great steaming pile of 200 proof bovine excrement. She point blank calls the designers of the game sexually deviant psychopaths that use the game to personally explore, and encourage other to explore, horrendus sexual violence. She does this by pulling 30 seconds of what I...

Sometimes my Nespresso machine makes watery coffee.

Because for nearly all projects of even modest size most low level devs, the ones that do all the real leg work and know the most about the game, have little to no influence or say in anything even remotely high level or important. This is especially true for stuff design related. Would you...

Lithose, do you mind if I use your post if I need to without attribution? I won't claim ownership of it, just that it might be easier to pull it out of the context of rerolled. It is very well written argument with supporting examples that I personally could not have done a better job of...

I wish I could remember where I heard this (I think it might have been on Seinfeld's internet show) that he was always apologetic about that and like you said he would hand out cash on the spot if they told him that he stole their joke. The crux of it was that eventually comedians hard up for...

The Surface 2 is full HD (1920x1080) and the 32GB model costs $450

To set different DPI settings there is a chcekbox in that menu that opens up more detailed options. I have my TV and Monitor set at different DPIs and it works fine. That is just the hot corner, it only appears when you move the mouse to the lower left corner of the screen. My girlfriend uses...

Their tech looks really good, but I am skeptical about how good thegamepart of it will be. Procedural generation is not the be all and end all of content creation, it is no more or less work than more traditional forms of content creation, just different. In many ways it is also more...

Even staring at the screenshots I can barely see a difference. I probably wouldn't even notice when playing.

The current software is leagues better than the craptastic N52te software, but probably not as simple, nice, and self contained as the old Belkin software. If you aren't still using the old model though the software is certainly an upgrade.

You mean theCherry MX mechanical switches? The Orbweaver has them, the normal version has the Blue ones and the "silent" model has the Red switches. I believe the blue ones are the especially loud ones, but you can Youtube for some sound comparisons of the switches. The Tartarus has normal...

In theory you could use it like that as well, but if you just want some extra Macro keys a better option is probably a more normal looking programmable keyboard.

I've used the n52 since at least some time before WoW came out, and now use the Tartarus. I use it for pretty much every game I play, and some of my work tools, and really can't do without one. From what I understand the different gamepads you listed are are all good and it is mostly a matter...

I don't know what to tell you other than I don't understand what you are talking about, the same button is in the same place in 8.1 and it does the same things. Also, using the search primarily is a good thing, you WANT people to use the search for things that aren't pinned.

My girlfriend has one, I find it leagues better than iOS (haven't use an android tablet) if only because I can surf the web while watching a movie. I don't know what you mean about the desktop, it is fully implemented, administering the Surface works almost exactly the same as Desktop Windows 8...
