Technically starfish can live forever but it's because they're able to reproduce cells asexually. Most of our aging and death issues arise from sexual reproduction.

If we didn't need to fuck, we almost certainly wouldn't get cancer. If there's a God, he's an absolute bastard.

Malaria is a serious killer.
Apparently there's a new Mosquito that also carries Malaria that is moving it's way down the coast now.
They'd better stop it before it reaches the city because well then pretty much everyone will be fucked.

This is a very nice game. The A.I. could be better though, beat it on my 2nd attempt.

I want to play against someone/or a better A.I. , but apparently quoridor.net is a attack site...

Edit: there is a better A.I. on that site

Most on here probably already know this buh...

Stereo is a mind trick causing the brain to create a phantom image between the two sources of sound cos in nature, naturally sound only comes from one place (the rest either reverb or echoes). By using the phantom image(sound) and the subsequent image bouncing off the walls floor and cieling you create a stereo field on which you can create an effect of great depth and space and also movement amongst said depth and space.

Dunno bout you but i find that jolly fascinating
