    The same one that said that the theory isn't well thought of by most paleontologists or anthropologists, and has been controversial since it's original positing in the 60's? Yeah, we did thanks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_ape_hypothesis

    News: Plane Goes down.

    Again, it's just not feasible. For a crash like this, what could be done? The size of parachute required would be hundreds and hundreds of feet across, and likely wouldn't have had enough time/altitude to deploy (even with people base jumping you need hundreds of feet). Outside of preventing the...

    News: Plane Goes down.

    You really think nothing has even been added to plane safety? Like redundant flight control systems, better pilot training, tighter regulation on hours and breaks, and so on? Plenty has been done. The fact of the matter is that for a plane to be able to fly, it has to be lightly constructed, and...

    Smartphones

    Storage space wise, I'd personally like at least 64gb on my phone so I can completely ditch using a 64gb third generation Touch for music, which is about 98% full (and the battery is pretty much shot). That's not even considering apps, OS and so on. Really there's no reason that 32 or 64...

    News: Plane Goes down.

    I was going to say, that must have been a solid 20 second moment of complete and utter hopelessness for the pilots. Out of curiosity, in general terms, would whoever loaded and secured the cargo have been on the plane still?

    I just found that statement in isolation to be pretty idiotic. "Zebras don't eat fish, and that's why dolphins have bigger brains." Like there aren't a million other factors at play there, whether you're talking about individual animals' life cycles or the evolutionary history of each species.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Nice looking room! That's really the only thing that makes me consider moving out of my condo and in to a house, is the ability to a) have a home theater room and b) actually be able to let my Klipsch RF-1's really stretch their legs without pissing off 40+ people.

    Let's talk about sex redux

    Yeah, I've been having some mild issues with the lady friend and in response I'm going to try to cut back on porn as much as possible. Nothing too major, I don't have an issue getting it up initially, just that after 10-15 minutes of banging I sometimes lose it, especially like wamphyr said if...

    Potential Lawsuit Against Apartment Complex?

    Whoa guys, hang on here. This dispute about rent that probably amounts to a barely 4 figure amount on a yearly basis is totally worth enlisting a lawyer and spending 5 to 6 figures on to litigate. He's been wronged I tell you! How can you put a price on that?

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    That's actually my favorite part of conspiracy theorists. Most of them, such as Lumie, derive a sense of superiority from their theorizing. Only they are smart enough to see the world for what it truly is, and all that. And yet many of their theories, or at least portions there of, are just flat...

    There a new Nexus 4 and 5 rumored to be coming out in the next month or two that will address the LTE side of things. Doubtful either will have a SD slot though.

    The point remains: someone isn't going to pay millions of dollars to buy a half finished MMO, then tens of millions to finish it. If they have that kind of coin, they're going to start from scratch anyways. It's not like the game can be finished and released by a handful of people in a year or...

    Pretty sure you can put lime down or something like that to neutralize the acidity somewhat, but that's never going to completely eliminate the dead lawn. This one doesn't mention lime:http://dogs.about.com/od/faqs/f/Why-...s-On-Grass.htm

    Hiking: Patagonia or Alaska

    Heh yeah, I have too many hobbies and not nearly enough time. Age isn't or at least shouldn't be a problem, at least for this kind of stuff (downhill mountain biking is a wee bit different). So long as you treat your body well, you should be able to do this kind of shit well in to your 60's.

    I will be shocked if it sells for more than a couple million, maybe upwards of five at the most optimistic. And that's just for the name/IP. The resources created for the game itself are completely useless I would imagine, no one's going to sort through it to piece a game together. They'd be...

    Yeah, I dunno why it's been stalled at 8-64 GB for so long. I have a Touch that must be 5 years old that's 64GB. The marginal cost of flash ram now is negligible. Even quality SSD's are under a dollar a GB now.

    I don't really have any info, other than a friend attempted it, got within 200 meters of the summit and had to turn back because of weather. So prepare for that possibility. Closer to home, you may want to look at the West Coast Trail on Vancouver island. I'm currently preparing to hike it...

    What's your opinion on taking a daily small dose of aspirin? I was talking with an oncologist friend and he said that's pretty much the only thing he would recommend to people along with vitamin D (especially since we don't get much sun up here), because it has so many fairly well tested benefits.

    If I remember right, first one was a one timer slap shot from the point by Corey Potter. It was along the ice and didn't look overly hard, so he probably should have had it. Second was Hall's goal, in which he and Yakupov turned it over along the boards and he stepped out and wired a shot...

    Just goes to show you can't buy your way to a successful team in hockey. You have to build one. That's not to say that the Wild down the road can't build a good team around Suter and Parise, but with the cap in hockey it's a fine balance between having 3-5 big money contracts and filling out the...

    Anyone know anything about Stardrive? Same publisher as Endless Space? Seems like it has more emphasis on the ships and combat than Endless Space did. I've had a blast with Endless Space and still occasionally play it, but it strikes me as being a bit shallow and hollow in some aspects.
