Comment planescape: torment (Score 1) 529

planescape: torment is, in my opinion, the greatest videogame I've ever played. Tycho, of Penny Arcade, at one point noted on PA that he feels the same way (I can't find the actual post offhand). We're both RPG fans, of course, but I'm pretty sure anybody who has any appreciation for plot would feel roughly the same. That said, it's pretty exclusively a point-and-click adventure, so to be perfectly blunt, you might save it for last...

That actually makes sense, although traffic density definately effects the speed. Density would allow me to understand when most people are leaving/going to work. High density probably increases the probability for accidents. Accurate real-time density statistics will help me plan the best time to leave for an easy commute. Unfortunately, I'd consider myself a professional commuter since I drive over 10 hours a week. This number could easily skyrocket to about 15-20 hours if I left at the worst times everyday. I really hope this traffic/cell phone tracking technology comes to Connecticut.

Journal Journal: Microsoft, What's Wrong with a Swastika? 3

"In 2004, Microsoft released a "critical update" to remove two swastikas and a Star of David from the font Bookshelf Symbol 7. The font had been bundled with Microsoft Office 2003"[WikiPedia].

Everywhere I go, I see little ribbons on everyones cars. In time, these harmless symbols may be turned into a more meaningful representation of the time. Maybe good or bad.
