I would like to see some games for SGI Systems, like Diablo 2 with EXP and some other RPGs too.
How about a Nintendo64 emulator?
When I got up this morning to go to school, it was cold as hell outside. But now it is nice out.

Can we please drop the global warming talk, it is a unproven theory, not fact. it is bound to lead to politics.


How is Las Vegas weather in the winter time?
Anime fourm seens kind of dead. So... Have you seen any good anime lately. I dont get that much time to watch anime anymore. :cry: Not until winter and summer break comes.

Why not just do a random download of a episode/series and play it by ear, that's how I found a lot of interesting series.



I wish that I could, but i have dial-up. :cry:

If you have not seen it, see it now, at all costs. No review does it any justice, people will interpret the story however they want and still be far from the truth.

The fact is, it is just fun to watch.


I seen all the fooly cooly episodes. Like to see them all again.
Today, it's like this (and sadly, in professional engineering and IT world too):

IT = Microsoft
text document = .doc file
Internet = IE
Mail = Outlook
CAD = Autocad
spreadsheet = Excel
programming = visual basic and NET
compiler = "what is that?"
operating system = "what is that?"
computer = PC with Microsoft XP "program"
Unix, BSD, Linux = "you're criminal hacker? Making viruses? You're not serious and we don't wan't to have anything in common with you!"


So ture. Sometime ago I was on the net reading a blog and they are complaining about how cheap that his school is cheap because they have Macintosh Computers. When did Macs become "cheap"? Our School is replacing our macs in the newspaper room with PCs. I hate when people say they know more about computers then me. And they only use PCs and think they can turn down the main volume on a computer using the volume control on the cd-rom. We also have a class called Computer technology and its just all pc software. There are mac posters in the room but no macs. Nothing else about other type of computers in the class. Just all PC.
I hate when people say they know more about computers then me. And they only use PCs and think they can turn down the main volume on a computer using the volume control on the cd-rom.


People that use Windows based computers think they know everything about computers. In the pass there was a kid that told me that he know more about computers then me, because he can sell viruses. Another day at school this girl said her mom knows more then I do (because she uses a pc). One day at my friends, I was on the net playing a game and pissing this kid off (my friends neighbor). So I was calling him computer stupid because he siad his bothers computer is runescape powered (runescape is a online rpg made using java). I said what the hell, are you stupid. Then his mom got on and told us she is no computer stupid. I wasnt even talking to her at the time. She said she knows more about computers then I do. What the hell is up with people here in nebraska that thinks they know more then I do! So I tested her and ask her "What is a SGI computer?". She replieda there is no such thing. What the Hell? She is computer stupid.

Even if they're pretty standard, that's $29 per Octane plus whatever it costs for me to go get them.

Who wants one or parts? More info once I have them.

I may be tempted, let me know what config's you have.


Put up the specs first then I might buy one.
Thanks ya all.

But most of the anime you all requested I have seen.
Last night I watched some anime movies on TCM, they played the 2 movies two times in english and then in japanese.

Does anyone here play any trading card games?

I play Magic The Gathering and World of Warcraft TCG.
Dr. Dave wrote: What's that one where you trade money based on cards? Ah, yes, poker... :twisted:


LOL good one. Been a long time ever sinced I played poker. Nekochan Poker Game anyone?
sincil wrote: Still play Poker.


I used to play a lot of Magic.
Started just after Revised up to about Visions.

Sold off most of my valuable cards (ones over $40 or so). Still got many of my cards though (5000+), plus a binder full of rares.

I still pick it up and play with mates every now and then, but haven't bought any new cards. Still play with type 1/type 2 rules, none of this new-fangled nonsense.


Some of the new rules suck.
Well after getting some of my anime promo dvds that I got with NewType mags. Found some new anime shows that I like.
I rember when TechTV had Anime Unleash. Some good anime. Till G4TV bought them. Got rid of The Screensavers, Call for Help, etc. But keep Xplay. DAMN YOU G4TV.

Also remember when Toonami was on weekdays in the afternoon, Midnight (The Midnite Run), and on Saturday mornings (The Rishing Sun). They had Cowboy Bebop, Gundam Wing, Dragon Ball Z, Salior Moon, Hamtaro, adn so on....


-Sign- Miss the good old days.
Well, Im going to try to keep my anime list small for now (just the buying pary, just like I need to do with buying computers).

So here is my list of anime series that Im going to buy, (for now).

Love Hina
Hellsing
Cowboy Bebop
Ghost in the Shell
Desert Punk
Last Exile

Ok, ok, I just started watching Inuyasha because my fiance, sister, and everybody else I know who is into pen and paper D&D has pretty much demanded that I watch it.

I must say, I am on the third season and I am impressed. Very impressed.

Action, humor, fantasy.... and demons. Sweet.

Alright, back to work! :lol:


Inu is ok to watch on TV. But I wont buy it due how long and DVDs there are.

I wish that I could, but i have dial-up. :cry:


Awwwww, -wishes she was able to pass you my cable- another good one (well I think anyway) is Bleach and since I got the box set for my birthday Ive rediscovered .Hack.

If you can, check them out =^..^=


Thanks. But I just got DSL about 5 months ago. lol. But when I move, Ill have cable Internet. I didn't really care for .Hack and Bleach is ok. They have it airing on Toonami on Saturday nights.
Not too long ago I seen the first part of Akira. I wish I could finish watching it. For an anime from the 80's, it's pretty good, oh hell its more then pretty good. Its Damn Good.
Nothing wrong with oldskool anime, I love it. One thing I dont really understand is that when Pokemon first came out people watched it and started to watch more anime that they see on Cartoon Network. They only had like 2-3 older animes on. But at school people that like anime dont like the older ones. Or they only watch anime that comes to America.

Cartoon Network = 4kids "implementation" channel?

doesn't the USA editions have the 4kids work over (aka no risky screens/Dumbed down storylines, no "risky" language)?


Ya Cartoon Network does that. Unless You have the Action Channel (its one of the Stars movie channels) That have some hardcore anime. NC17 and M ratings. Use to watch Hellsing on the channel. America likes to edit some of the animes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editing_of_anime_in_American_distribution

Plus they edit the mos stupid things like food, logos, smoking, and etc.

Quote:
The edited version of Pokémon. Ash Ketchum is carrying a submarine sandwich.
The unedited version. Satoshi is carrying an Onigiri, a food item unfamiliar to most Americans.


Quote:
One Piece. The original Japanese version is on the right (with a villain, Helmeppo, threatening another character, Coby, with a handgun), while the censored version is on the left (with Helmeppo holding a hammer attached to a spring.)


Quote:
In some instances Japanese studios have refused to allow their work to be censored as a precondition of signing a US release contracts.
Quote:
I still lol at the local book store refusing to sell the unedited edition of Ghost in the shell manga, the unedited edition if I recall as some slight lesbian scenes in. yet the same store sells hentai >_>


Wow, that's mess up.
I bought Love Hina Vol 1 Manga and my sister got all pissed at me saying I'm sick for buying a book with that "filth" in it. I was old enough to buy it. I also show her he age rating on it too. She end up messing up the manga for me. Its got some small rips because she used sticky notes as book marks to the "bad" parts she didnt like and also hidden it from me and end up bending it. That really pissed me off. I told her to stop destroying my stuff because I dont have the money to get new stuff like she does.

Items lost/messed up due to my sister
Love Hina Vol 1 Manga
Dell Computer
2 Monitors
3-5 Keyboards
5-8 Mice
Super Nintendo
N64 Game
20in SGI Monitor
SGI Indy
Mac 6500
Bent to Hell Desk
2 stacks of blank CDs
NewType Mags
Anime Posters
and the list goes on...

Just gotta love my sister.

I cant wait till I move out. Then I can have more room for my stuff. But I dont really want to live in America anymore. But I guess I'm stuck here. Ill probably be living in Beatrice NE, Lincoln NE, or some where in Kansas. And have an IT job hopefully.
Hmm. This kind of got off topic.
Never heard of it. So did you stay up to watch it.

The licensing of the Hikaru no Go manga will not affect the fansubbing of the Hikaru no Go anime as when it comes to licensing, anime and manga licenses are unrelated. That is to say when a company publishes the rights to the manga, they only get the rights to the manga. At current, no-one has licensed the anime.


so I would like to recommend you Hikaru No Go, which is anime that attracted tens of thousands spectators.

you can download it here:

I have seen a few episodes of BPS and it reminds me of some of the members on this site that are pounding away on their keyboards trying to do something cool with some beast of a computer sitting in their living room.



Heard about it and seen some pics, but never watched it.
This weekend i got nothing to do, besides work. So im going to try to watch some anime.
Princess Mononoke, All the Patlabor Movies, Ghost in the Shell, and Cowboy Bebop Knockin on Heavens Door are the Anime Movies I like that I seen.
I seen a pic of an Indy running at 500MHz. How can I do that?

I like more action/mecha/sci-fi kind of anime.

It is not anime , but as a child I loved cartoons like (the M.A.S.K. (1985), Jayce and the wheeled warriors (it is interesting that it was made in Japan studios) and Transformers).



No Prob!
I been watching some of my friends videos that he made, mostly making fun of naruto. I like thi one a lot.

Well since I got out of the hospital, I finished watching Hellsing. Now Im going to watch all the Cowboy Bebop eps. But I should be doing my webdesign homework from school instead of watching anime.
