I meant that they were actually looking into alternatives to antibiotics. Apparently the USSR used it, but the west shied away from it due to antibiotics being easier to deal with, didn't help that everything was in Russian and Georgian. I've seen some studies being done in this century and I don't particularly keep track of it, so I'm sure medical science is well aware of the need for alternatives. Let's just hope the producers will be.

Most of the thing that were "new" were just better applications of things tried before. 3D movies and VR being good examples and they aren't quite succesfull. I guess the smartphone is one, but again similar devices in the 80's and 90's. PDA's and the IBM Simon. Ultimately just improving tech isn't such a bad deal, innovation for innovation's sake can be quite pointless. Me neither. 99% of the world's population doesn't care, who cares what attention seekers think. Sadly social media makes that group seem bigger because other people don't interact with the companies. We'll have to see, I hope it's just for the PC section. I'll see whatever people screech about and look into it when it releases. What I did hear was that they are giving away cosmetics for people who do ?bi-weekly? challenges in CK2. Hope that's not on the same level as their regular DLC shenanigans. You can always put it on-hold and work on a few others. Otherwise just power through it. They apparently own/were Linguee, which is a sort of dictionary lookup website which is pretty good. Mainly based on context (so from actual sentences) of translations instead of direct. They have Japanese on there, so I'm sure they're planning on it.

Mainly encyclopedic efforts though, It's not big-brained work like the SR players on here. Who knows, someone might use it. I would've liked such a list earlier. I haven't bought much in the way of game CDs, however Buyee seems a lot more specific. When I got the diskettes they classified it as software and with the correct price. Also the weight was correct to the gram. I don't have any papers from White Rabbit considering I haven't used them in quite a while. Foreign mail-order sure leaves a stack of papers though. I got 120g for 740 yen though with the yet to arrive CD, so it might be accurate (or I also got screwed). Will probably arrive this week, might even change status tonight. Would've been less of an issue without the shrinkwrap. Goo gone generally gets recommended, no idea where to get that over here though. We probably have a similar product, but I don't know it's name. Apparently it's best to also rub it with alcohol after, it leaves a bit of residue and smell.
