    4-Dimensional Beings!

    3 dimensional space, sometimes time is referred to as the 4th dimension. I guess you're referring to spacetime. But it's not the same as 4 dimensional space, which messes with our brains if we try visualize it. OP, There are some interesting videos on this on youtube I'm sure you won't have...

    Other People's Sex Lives

    pansexuals dude. OT: People pry into other peoples business all the time. I haven't met a single person yet that doesn't consider certain behaviour as bad or thinking what they do for fun as weird, or even damaging for no good reason.

    China: We're Beating the Pirates

    Meh. They tried that it France, didn't even put a dent in the business of piracy. Let's hope they swipe the bill of rights.

    3D: From Optional Gimmick to Default Setting?

    I live in Sweden, I haven't seen The Avengers yet, I won't ever pay (extra, mind you) to see another movie in "3D". I didn't see Wrath of the titans or the latest underworld movie either, when I sent an e-mail to the cinema owners, who own every cinema I know of, they just said "It's not we who...

    Poll: game of thrones the hbo show vs the books

    They probably put a page limit on his first book(s?) as well. (I don't know when they took off, I never heard of it before it came to HBO). I sort of agree with you, books and movies are different mediums, but that doesn't mean they can't be compared. They have different strengths, you weigh...

    Need some advice on A Song of Fire and Ice.

    Start with the first book, or prepare to be confused and think "Who the hell is this" a lot. They skipped much and blended characters together, you won't be bored reading it.

    Poll: Is there sexism in Hollywood?

    I agree it's not a perfect gender equality test. But I bet that if you applied the same test to men fewer movies would fail, which accounts for something I guess... Also according to the website T2 (pretty much) passed.

    Poll: Is there sexism in Hollywood?

    see: The Bechdel Test (I guess that's sort what he is referring to). 1. It has to have at least two [named] women in it 2. Who talk to each other 3. About something besides a man

    Poll: Is there sexism in Hollywood?

    Trying to squeeze a persona into 40 minutes of screen-time isn't enough to show a complete person (imo), which makes it sort of silly to judge them as such, they are characters not people. This does not hold for main characters in TV-series, but unless they're sitcoms I'd say they do a pretty...

    Bands/Artists that deserve more popularity

    That's a (Captcha: very nice) song buck rogers, I've heard it so many times while playing gran turismo 3 I like many bands but I guess the current trend does not agree with me. Kust to name one: Wheatus. And better yet they share they music DRM free with a pay what you want policy, I love...

    Poll: What are you really buying? An attempt to spark discussion about the games you buy and DRM

    Most of the time you're simply buying the right to use something, but lately I've been getting a feeling that I'm simply renting it for the time they (the company) see fit.

    Anyone want to help me buy a Computer?

    I simply added up the numbers and added some wiggle room, if you say that the minimum expressed in details is not true, I'll have to take your word for it. I never checked my own computers power consumption because I've always had more than enough (and I'm not paying the bills). How low would...

    Obesity Discrimination

    I mean skinny people, I don't know if she's consistent about it. Mostly anyone who cares about their weight.
