Topic | Are there any games you miss? |
kukukupo 02/22/20 9:05:45 PM #31 | Not really. I still own pretty much every game I've ever bought apart from some pinball machines and arcade games. Now that I think of it, I suppose the only game I really miss is my upright arcade game of Life Force. It was so much better than the NES version. |
Topic | Just a reminder, there used to be a company called Squaresoft. |
kukukupo 02/16/20 5:42:58 PM #54 | Everything after FF 6 was basically trash, so not much lost by the time they were bought. At that point the flame was out and Enix was the better company. |
Topic | Just watched Troy (2004) |
kukukupo 02/15/20 8:00:22 AM #11 | I've always been partial to Clash of the Titans. |
Topic | What do you think it would take to make the USadopt the Metric System? |

No matter how much practice you get, dividing 1 lb 6 oz in half is always going to be slower than dividing 3 kg in half due to the extra unit conversion step required. That difference may not be overly significant, and it'll disappear when you're working with single-unit imperial measurements, but for anyone who does have to do math on measurements that aren't always so tidy, metric is pretty unquestionably superior. So what? It is harder to divide in half using base 10 than it is binary. Plus, all of our computers use binary. The world should just switch to that, correct? What happens when you read a clock? Do you just get upset because it doesn't divide by 10 nice and easy for you? Or months of the year? More than half of metric is garbage anyway. Throw out the centi- and deci-, no one uses it. Just use kilo, mega, micro, etc The US will never change because all of our structures/etc are built in standard measurements and metric doesn't have the resolution to convert the measurements over to use-able numbers. Ever try marking off quarter inches in metric? What a nightmare! |
