    Why I Like Otome Games

    Yeah, sometimes the game doesn't go in the direction I want it to go... Like in BWS: Bloody Nightmare Auger's route....... I pretty much rage quit after that. In other occasions, the story preference is mostly based on the opinion of the player. I also hate it when the heroine is a doormat...

    Would you go to mars if you could never go back?

    I repeat: "The main scientific reason to colonize Mars. "Colonizing" in Mars' case refers to the building of a permanent establishment. I'm not talking about what you think the reason is; I'm basically saying what the definition of "to colonize" is when applied to Mars' scenario. In Mars One's...

    Would you go to mars if you could never go back?

    I said that the main "scientific" reason-- not a certain space tourist's idiotic idea of going to Mars, wasting billions of dollars, sending people to die, and at the end: accomplishing nothing. If they did, they'd know that "colonizing" Mars in a couple of years with no new technological...

    Would you go to mars if you could never go back?

    @FinalPyre The main scientific reason to colonize Mars is to make it habitable in case Earth becomes unsuitable for life; we can't do that if Mars isn't self-sustaining. If we could build a semi-functioning dome (with current technology), we could theoretically live, but without continuous...

    Would you go to mars if you could never go back?

    This project is bordering ludicrous and just plain dumb. 1) You can't just build a dome and wear spacesuits to colonize Mars. If you do, you're going to die in a very short time. You'd have to go to the point of terraforming Mars. The only creditable theories that scientists have come up with...

    Controlling hallucinations.

    @FinalPyre Interesting... Are you suggesting solipsism? Unfortunately, there's no way to refute this or to prove it. The problem is: it's not logical to assume that the only certain thing is oneself. For example: you can't convince me of solipsism; you have only two ways to convince me: a)...

    Controlling hallucinations.

    @Leia What separates a hallucination from a random image generated by the brain is the realistic feel. The hallucination can be entirely surreal, but it will still seem realistic, if not real. Someone can see images of mythological creatures (with a prior understanding that they're mostly/if...

    Controlling hallucinations.

    I don't think hallucinations can be guided-- they only occur when mechanisms in the brain distinguishing reality from make-believe aren't working properly. But you can't really control what you see. Like someone else said, the definition of lucid dreaming is to know that you are in a dream. If...

    Controlling hallucinations.

    Like others have said, it's impossible to hallucinate simply by wanting to hallucinate (without the effect of disorders or drugs). The only way to hallucinate "on purpose", is to actually believe that what you're are seeing and experiencing is the real thing. People with disorders can't...

    THE NIGHT LIFE OF BRIAN

    The title is so misleading. :DD For the poem itself--- I thought it was very descriptive. I'm wondering if you made the poem open to interpretation, or if the character is experiencing schizophrenia, nightmares, or anything specific? Also, for the first stanza, 5th line: "Upswing downswing...

    ITH and Translation Aggregator Guide

    Hmm...I haven't played Kuro to Kin no Akanai Kagi before, but I looked around for some solutions. First, are you using the h-code "/HAN-C@43ECAC" ? If you are, I read that you needed to patch the game with the version 1.1 patch for the code to work. Here's a post you can refer to...

    Are you afraid of dying?

    I agree with this. I think most people are more afraid of dying painfully than dying in general. Most people will just fear death as being painful, or death leading to the unknown. Humans are curious creatures, and without it, we wouldn't have come this far. Life is all we know. If we knew what...
