TROPHY CASE

Looking for games where "gaming" or "breaking" the system is part of the game

Karinett 0 points1 point 8 months ago[-]

notpron might be within your interest. It's a web-based game, and really, all you're playing against is the creator(s) of the game.

Hey mods, will you post the server ip's on the reddit's description on the right hand side?

Can there be a link to a thread with the info then?

'Star Trek' soars with No. 1 debut - CNN.com

Karinett 2 points3 points 10 months ago[-]

At least it opens up more opportunities for good stories. I like that they're putting one stage of the Trek franchise behind and starting fresh - hopefully they won't fuck it up this time.

The 2nd movie should be interesting.

Most of what's called Filipino now is derived from the Tagalog, but the Tagalog people and language is just one of the many ethno-linguistic groups of the Philippines. Filipino, however, is the accepted 'nationwide' language.

More trivia: "Tagalog" comes from the words "taga-ilog" meaning "from the river"

Hmm. I was under the impression that "boondocks" originated from Filipino where "bundok" means mountain. The etymology as far as I understand is that when the Americans took over they adopted the word to reference anything remote especially because there are several settlements in the mountainous regions of the Philippines.

Filipino is rooted in Malay but is not exactly the same. I'm unaware "bundok" means something similar in Malay but I'm pretty sure that its introduction into the English language came from the Philippines and the American colonization thereof.

Crap like this is why I argue that religion IS dangerous, and not just a harmless personal choice

Or, put another way, your right to swing your Bible ends at my nose.

That's brilliant. I'm quoting that from now on.

"Weary" or "wary"?

"Weary" means tired, "wary" implies careful expectation.

It annoyed me because the country I live in cut out most of the "Hallelujah" sex scene. So we can see penis but boobage is immoral.

I went in expecting to see a power company boycott. Silly non-techy Swedes; they still don't understand how bit torrent works do they?

Scientists record the biggest gamma-ray burst ever detected. It produced energies ranging from 3,000 to more than five billion times that of visible light.

Three thousand to FIVE BILLION times visible light? With that kind of spread you have to wonder about our science sometimes. :P

Alright, I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip. :)

This sounds interesting, but I don't think my teacher will accept the proposal. :( A different experiment in the same field (behavioral conditioning?) may work though :)

Karinett [S] 0 points1 point 1 year ago[-]

I have 2 groupmates, but they aren't really very creative or active so the decision making has been left to me. So ok, I just put the condition that they'll be the ones doing said experiment :) And that they have to help me research/write the report, of course.

It's just general psych. I can enlist other friends or strangers too if I need to. :)

I'm in Ateneo, which is a university in the Philippines.

It's just general psych (psy101), and we're supposed to think up a question we'd like answered and do either an observational study or an experiment depending on what the nature of our question is. It's an open project, so anything goes for as long as we can define our variables and set the parameters correctly.

We're also supposed to do some research on related studies so we can submit a report afterward. :)
