I've been playing through a few things lately, mostly going through Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2, on a speed reset run (it takes ages). Besides that, I've finally managed to get started on a bit of DotA 2, which I've been meaning to get into for over a year. I've also dabbled a bit in Paper...
Hi James,
I'll address you points in reverse order to get the easy stuff over with.
I mean a mutation that is not selected against, which in this case would mean that it is non-lethal. On second inspection I agree that my terminology here may also be committing the error of confusing selection...
I think you're talking past each other, if only slightly, and clarification should help shorten this line of discussion. Dandan's argument is not that either of two neutral mutations with a combined beneficial effect could be removed after their combined effect has provided the benefit; rather...
Small note to Aron (if you're reading this): There appears to be at least one formatting error in your section regarding Mitchondrial Eve. You incorrectly attribute the entire section to BobEnyart, instead of only the first paragraph. This is slightly confusing if you skim it, since it gives the...
First off: I know I haven't posted much around here, but I have followed most of these debates with a kind of morbid curiosity. This time around, I feel I actually have something useful to contribute, so let's see what I can dig up.
(Emphasis mine)
Really Bob? You'd think it would put you in a...
It should be noted that SWTOR is very different from SWG. SWTOR is more or less WoW in the Star Wars setting, but with a decent story. I've heard tell that EVE Online is more akin to the style of SWG.
That said, I'm also enjoying SWTOR when I have a few spare minutes. I mostly play on the...
Ah, blood donor criteria; I recently fell afoul of these as well. After a long period of being gently nudged by my significant other and a few others in my family, I pulled myself together and went to sign up - and was summarily rejected, because I lived in the UK for more than 6 months between...
Apparently, this petition has had an effect. The latest revision of the model funding agreement for Free Schools includes the following passage:
That passage seems to preclude the teaching of creationism as a scientific fact. Thumbs up to UK government.

I've just recently begun to play this, and so far, I like it quite a bit.
Unfortunately, I got bounced over to the EU-NE server when I signed up, but I wouldn't be completely opposed to the idea of switching over if we have some others around.
The game arguably does an even worse job of selling itself. The motto of the game is "Losing is fun", and even the wiki uses the term "fun" as a synonym for the destruction of your fortress.
I've tried to get into this game multiple times over the years, but I never really managed to get the...
It may just be me that is missing something entirely, but as far as I can tell, that website (the World Community Grid) is not directly affiliated with the folding@home initiative. In fact, that question appears to be directly answered in that topic...
With all due respect Squawk, after going through that topic I can't find mention of a LoR F@H team, nor can I find any teams listed on the F@H website under League of Reason or LoR, or anything similar.
