You mean the Rape of Nanking? I think it depends how you count the casualties from the bombs, but the numbers are fairly close.

I mean in their Chinese campaign as a whole but, yes, that certainly plays a major part.
What is 'BAMP'? It's from a dumb comment here bashing Obama for not giving it enough money, some government program perhaps:

Maybe he meant the BRAIN initiative the article was about but was confused. I always promise myself to never read any comments section online again and I break that promise over and over.

What are the forum rules about reviving an old thread in Off Topic?
Specifically talking about the LTTP: V for Vendetta thread. I am about to watch it and I do not really want to create a new thread for it.
Question is, can I just revive an old thread created by a user few years ago or is that irrelevant?

I sleep for twelve hours. I can't get out of bed with less sleep and it's seriously affecting my productivity and mood. I've tried setting alarms with obstacles but I can't seem to fix this. Why does my body require so much sleep and how do I fix this?

What i do is put my alarm far enough that i have to stand up and go get it. When i had it next to me i always pushed snooze and overslept all the time. I doubt your body "needs" that much sleep.

I've tried this. I just get right back into bed. I'm so tired that my better judgement is basically gone. If my body isn't asking for twelve hours, I'd be able to start my day with less sleep but I simply can't.

Well i also started waking up easier and earlier when i started working out for some reason.

I ended up fixing this by disabling a plugin.
The steps are:
- enter "chrome://plugins" into the browser address bar;
- Click on the plus sign next to "details" (can be found at top right of page)
- You should see a plugin for "prepflashplayer" - disable it by clicking the disable link
Here is a screenshot of the plugin I had to disable:

Webcomic ideas that are something different but might actually work. Go.

So we can grow organs in labs now. We can also splice together certain characteristics into an animal clone too, or something.
So could we have like, lung rabbits or like a rat with human eyeballs?
So could we have like, lung rabbits or like a rat with human eyeballs?
A rabbit/bunny that keeps trying different, human, jobs. Coming across obvious problems, accidents and observations.
Someone interacting through life, like a 'youtube commenter' (obnoxious) and facing repercussions.
An ant going through ant life, but thinking like a human, standing out for free thinking (like Antz/A Bugs Life)
A person, stuck inside the internet (Kind of like Wreck it Ralph has the world in the surge protector.)
I will gladly accept royalties should you get successful
=PUnsurprisingly I love this idea.
Oh that's fucking adorable. D:
I believe so. Checkbooks are bank-agnostic, and I'd imagine most bank systems for their own checks are similar if not identical.

What interval(s) or scale(s) is being played in the first 40 seconds of this video? It sounds weird/enigmatic.

Is there a program or Windows task that can just automatically back up files by copying them to another hard drive?
I'd prefer something like Dropbox, how it automatically updates everything.. except between my 2 hard drives and not the cloud.
Anyone know of anything that can do this? All the backup programs I've tried are terrible and cumbersome.

one of the cutest things I've ever seen! If you don't do it, put him on T-shirts!
Anyone else getting ads between posts in a thread now? First time I've seen it tonight and now it's everywhere and horrible
Ads between posts normally happen when you're on NeoGAF but not signed in. If you are signed in then this shouldn't happen. But if it is then I don't know why.
Ah, I see. Thanks!

In relation to this research - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/9987571/Research-suggests-bras-do-no-good.html
I raised an eyebrow when I was reading this. For as far as I know, the firmness and lift of breasts is determined by the size and strength of your chest muscles, and as such it's obvious that breasts would sag more if they are worked less. Since a bra carries the weight of the breasts, that would automatically imply that the chest muscles are worked less, showing that the results are not so much related to bras being evil and more related to the fact that women need to work their chest muscles more.
Am I missing something here?

Have you installed anything onto the hard drive since the format? Or is it still empty?
You'd be able to retrieve the data from the hard drive if you've not put any new data onto it. If you have however it'll be significantly more difficult, and probably impossible.
Yeah, I already installed a lot of stuff on it. Guess it makes sense that I won't be able to recover the stuff then. :/

I have two questions.
1- How do I stop Java for asking about daily updates every time I turn on my computer?
2- What's the difference between Grape Jam and Grape Jelly?
1- How do I stop Java for asking about daily updates every time I turn on my computer?
2- What's the difference between Grape Jam and Grape Jelly?
- In jelly, the fruit comes in the form of fruit juice.
- In jam, the fruit comes in the form of fruit pulp or crushed fruit (and is less stiff than jelly as a result).
- In preserves, the fruit comes in the form of chunks in a syrup or a jam.

For windows,
Start>Control Panel>Java. Click on the update tab and choose.
If it's already downloaded an update it might still hassle you until you install it.
If you have the Java browser plugins activated/installed, I strongly recommend to install the updates.
Otherwise what Vert boil said, or remove the Java Scheduler/jusched from autostart (via msconfig or Task Manager)
I would be interested in this, I look at many webcomics regularly.

My parents old dell desktop has a fan failure and I need to get the part to replace it. I've got the model down and but don't know if the fan is:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04&sku=P2721&mfgpid=163009&chassisid=8215

Is there a part ID on the old power supply? The more expensive one just seems to have additional PFC.

The problem is I don't know which part is the "fan" which is causing the fan failure.

GAF what should I do with my first gen ipod touch? It's gotten to the point where almost no apps from the app store support anymore it so I can finally rid myself of using itunes. But there are still a few apps I like to use on it- pandora, atomic web browser, etc. So if I jailbreak it what app will I be able to use? Or should I get all the apps I can for it off the app store one last time and then use a 3rd party media player to transfer music/videos?
If the email address you guess doesn't exist you should get a failure of delivery notification. If you guess wrong but your guess happens to be someone else's email, then they will get it.
So, if I didn't get a failure of delivery notification, it's safe to say I guessed correctly? Awesome.
Pretty safe to say yes =]
Awesome! If anyone wants to know Nintendo UK's Director of Marketing and PR, or their General Manager's email addresses, let me know.
