Also it reminds me of the Nanosuit from Crysis.

@Aethyr: I dunno, these are pretty awesome. I can't figure out if I like the more human look compared to the unholy killing machine look.

@KirkLazarus: Yeah but consider that you could just blast them the hell out of the way, and/or force choke the crap out of em... Might be kinda fun.

I can identify one large problem, Anna Paquin is a virgin.

That being said, I pretty much expect sex and violence from HBO. Looks like they will deliver on the sex.

@TheDormouse: Wonder if it will change because they recast someone.

@SigmundTheSeaMonster: October, its at the end of the article ;)

@Ceiling90: @capntim: Ditto, Ender's Game was excellent. Speaker for the Dead was still pretty good, Xenocide and Children of the Mind were fucking odd. I never actually finished Children.

Okay, I suppose I can let that slide.

The battlesuits actually look pretty good.

So its going to be better than the 90's cartoon eh? That thing was like kiddie cocaine to me... I might have to watch this at some point then. Too bad the art looks pretty stupid.

Also, interdimensional beings are probably a better way to go than straight up gods, because what fun would that be?

Pretty much I'm in for superpowers + gets laid. Becoming a God/King is just a bonus.

@I Think We're Property: Yeah I think the video game Tron 2.0 did a better job. This is like what they did with JUMPER and called it JMPR, which was stupid.

Log1c commented on Yahoo Music Shutting Down DRM Servers To Finish Transition to Rhapsody

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 13:40:41 EDT

@lordargent: The problem here is that you expect the RIAA to care about the consumer, I'd bet as far as they are concerned since the provider has changed, its completely new music and therefor you should pay for it again.

Ha ha. This is what you get for being a shitty consumer.

Log1c commented on Moore's Law Revitalized by 12-Nanometer Chip-Fabbing Invention

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:20:20 EDT

@jorvay: Moore's Law could still exist far far into the future. The thing that everyone misquotes is that Moore's Law on silicon is nearing its end, the lithography techniques are starting to hit X-Ray wavelengths and those are a pain in the ass to generate.

Considering we froze Lucas himself in carbonite, and he is going to release the original series in 3D! afterwards. If we apply the same thing to Jar-Jar the end result will be episodes 1.1,2.1,3.1 staring Jar-Jar.

As absurd as it seems, if you are ever launched out an airlock, just exhale. You'll explode from decompressing air in your lungs, like the bends but with death as a side effect. You'll most likely suffocate first, then freeze, vacuums are horrible at heat transfer and your body sucks at radiating heat.

There we go, some SDCC news! Sounds good so far I especially can't wait for Deadpool.

And its a Wolverine movie, it should be almost entirely him fighting stuff.

The important part, though, is how many of these are good books? ie what is the good opening line : good book ratio?

I thought NASA decided space sail's weren't effective means of propulsion. They should be testing some Xenon drives as well.

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:38:21 EDT

@carlstreator: I have a friend who literally wouldn't function well without his medication. However I believe a lot of these people are self diagnosed and have convinced their brain that it can't function without it. In that case I completely agree with Plague that they should man up and try other techniques besides medication to 'treat' their illness.

The brain is more powerful than people give it credit for, even in those people who are idiots to begin with.
