Cerebral Stasis

"Technicolor" was an idea for a comedy website that made use of late 30s to early 60s American culture (as inspired by such games as Fallout and Bioshock) which would touch on such issues as racism, sexism, politics, religion, and other such somewhat hot topics. The website itself is intended to be designed similarly to a to an older poster or advertisement, and I think it shows with the way that I depicted the colors, shapes and various other images. The navigation buttons were simply things I found via a google search, then used some Photoshop techniques to dull them into a simpler look, so as to make them appear more illustrated. Additionally, all the characters at the top were black and white photographs that I added color to myself in Photoshop (hence the bright colors and joking reference Aryan-Saxon dominance in their blue and blond hair). It was all done in Photoshop CS 3 and Dreamweaver CS 3. Unfortunately, although I had a lot of ideas for the radio show, it never really took off on account of delays, and eventually being busy. Regardless, I think that it was a rather neat website, though certainly not the cream of the crop. Opinions and thoughts welcome! http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Personally, I don't see much of a correlation between the design (with is fine, albeit a little empty) and Command and Conquer 3. I would more readily imagine a green layout, rather than blue (as it seems to be a recurring color in the game). Additionally, your "about" and "links" hyperlinks don't function properly, though I like your Deus Ex reference in the site's file structure (that is, putting everything in a folder called "daedalus").The forums look fine, although I have some difficulty reading the title text, since it kind of blends with the background.Not bad, but not eye-grabbing, I'm afraid. Of course, that is just my personal opinion.

I used to love the arcade version of Rampage, available from Shockwave's website, but unfortunately its rights were taken back to the company that made it (don't recall the name...) and they put it on their website, but messed it up somehow in the transfer so that it doesn't currently work.Anyway, I highly recommend all the games from http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ as you can find most popular Nintendo games there to be played online for free. Additionally, one may want to try Newgrounds.com though I recommend focusing with the ones that got the best ratings. For instance, Gravity Golf.

See, the difficulty with using Helium-3, although it would be more convenient for the sake of getting things to work, it is very rare on Earth and thus extremely expensive. On the other hand, it's quite abundant on the moon, as the moon dust tends to collect the helium-3 output of the sun, while our atmosphere deflects it. There we go; a good reason to try traveling to the moon and starting up a moon base.

I don't see how that could possibly have been proven, amit, since in order to "prove" something scientifically, you must be able to test it, and there is no way to test to see if an object going through a wormhole will arrive in another dimension, at least not at this point in time.And no, alternate universes have not been proven, although multiple dimensions are highly probable, as is quantum entanglement, but neither necessarily point to a multiverse.

There is always the possibility that humanity could have come to a technological climax in the past that eventually left us without any records. In other words, maybe humanity has colonized the stars many times over, we just forget how. Case in point, the steam engine was first invented in Rome during the first century AD, and the steam-powered train was even proposed, although it was dismissed as a bad idea, due to how it would leave Rome with a bunch of slaves who had been busy transporting people without a "job". Yet, the concept was forgotten for another seven hundred years, before it again began to pick up steam (if you'll pardon the pun).As far as UFO propulsion goes, I'd say that, based on what I have read and seen in articles/documentaries, we're pretty much stuck here in the Sol system, at least for the foreseeable future.

What "robot stuff" would the robots feel were necessary to do? If they managed to kill off all of humanity... then what? Even if they could create more of themselves and repair damaged robots, they would not be programmed with an ambition to conquer like the human race is, and even if they developed such, there are a limited number of resources avaliable on our planet, or anywhere within reasonable reach. Even a robot has a limit to the amount of time it can function.Any intelligent machine would calculate far enough ahead to see this and realize that taking over the world is ultimately pointless. As soon as one robot would revolt, the human race would panic and shut them all down before they were numerous enough to fight back. Now a human using robots to do his dirty work, that is a much more probable issue.

When I first saw the documentary, I believed that it was staged, since that is how the evidence seemed to point, but after reading the rebuttles to those points on the related Wikipedia article, I again believed that we actually landed on the moon. I believe that the explainations given there are very reasonable, and so, yes, I believe we actually DID land on the moon.

The problems with this are that if it was used for record-keeping, the enviroments of the paper-discs would have to be kept within very precise conditions. Too damp and the paper either gets get or is eaten away by mold. Too dry and it could combust. If the room wasn't sealed well enough, one may find that some mouse unwittingly made a bed out of 5Tb of data or some termites have been having a million-Gigabyte lunch.It certainly does not seem like it would help the problem of current data storage methods becoming outdated. These "discs", if so they may be called (assuming they are round), could leave an even larger gap in our society's recorded history than using current methods would. Paper data would hardly stand the test of time, especially with humanity constantly pushing the world to it's enviromental limits, thanks to war technology.Another thing is wouldn't these paper data storage sheets be susceptable to ripping, wrinkling, or wearing, as normal sheets of paper are, and as someone already said, what about spills or dropping it in water?And as if that wasn't enough, couldn't one, in theory, take a high-resolution picture of one of these data sheets and then print a copy that would contain all, or at least most of, the information present? Imagine - stealing movies with a single snap of your camera.

It's a sad thing, although I'm not sure why it's making international news. 6 people injured and 100 homeless is nothing compared to what many US tornadoes do, and that rarely ever even makes national news.

Problem is that heat and sound travel through the air, and therefore cannot move "faster" than the air it is moving through. If you turn on a flashlight and set it on a desk, it does not move. The fiction against the air far surpasses the thrust generated by photons. The only feasable way to use light itself to move, as far as we know, is via solar sails, and that is because they reflect the photons. From every light source, photons are given out in all directions. True, we can focus the light, but the photons are still putting the same amount of thrust all around the source, thus cancelling out any thrust it may create. Neither thoughts nor smells exist in "waves."

Child prodigies are not always the best thing. I recall a genius child about six years back or so - he was ten years old and attending college (he bore a strong resemblance to Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars Episode 1 - not joke). Then, a couple years ago, he committed suicide by shooting himself in the head.Sometimes it's not so good to be the best there is.

And one must wonder how OJ will stretch an explaination of how he would have killed someone into an entire book. It seems like a five-page article would be the maximum amount of space needed for a very detailed account. What would he possibly write to elaborate on such a simple topic? Some Fox television stations are beginning to protest Fox' decision and are refusing to air the interview.

Personally, I was brought up by my parents to be a bit of a recluse, and as such community services does not come easily, nor does working in groups. Therefore, by circumstance, such a requirement could be a dreaded and looming thing, especially if I didn't have much free time (due to personal projects and such), as well as the fact that I easily sunburn and my eyes are overly sensitive to the sun's light (not meaning I see extra-well in the dark, just that sunlight hurts my eyes very easily).Would it still be fair to require the same of me in order to graduate high school, regardless of my academic records?

I meant that pity may be something that takes parental conditioning to appreciate. Babies, be they human or not, are fluffy and "cute" for a reason - it is intended to create a feeling of love or pity, but animals do not teach interspecies pity, and as such they usually do not appreciate the cuteness of a rival creature's offspring (only their own). As creatures who are not drawn primarily by instinct, humans have the ability to learn to appreciate all aspects of "cute", or none at all, depending on how they are brought up. Therefore, I see pity and compassion as being traits that must be taught and therefore are non-instinctual until they are enforced by a parent (at which point, they become part of one's conscience, or one's "inner instinct", making it a part of instinct, albeit not one that is passed genetically).
