Stanford University are currently working on a new FMHD synthesis protocol with improved sound generation properties, and a real-time property modelling editor, that allows the user to encapsulate Karplus-Strong and otherphysical modelling aspects with relative ease.
Wow, the mobile hotspot in my phone has enough TX power for me to use it from the other side of the suite on my MacBook. NIce. Now I can goof off on here while my lunch is cooking.
Yeah, I was surprised whenever they quietly brought in Egyptian contractors in 2009 to resume work on the place
They've also released some pictures of the inside and it's looking pretty good there too. I don't know how they went about repairing and stabilizing the structure but from a distance looking out, it looks ... pretty good
10It seems like every other article has a reference to it. It's like, eventually, can't you just stop? Everything that can be said about those movies has been said.
I will grant that Jar-Jar Binks is probably one of the most annoying characters ever put on a movie screen, but at some point you kind of run out of funny ways to say that.
it's funny reading old Mad stuff and comparing it to the new stuff.
What happened?
Bill Gaines died.
No, seriously, that's what happened. After he died, MAD soon had advertising for the first time since.... it began, and then they did other unforgivable things like hiring on Ted Rall as a cartoonist.

Their work would fit in much better on other, more serious websites.
Wong in particular seems to consider himself some paragon of humanity.
He also seems to believe that women can control men at will, judging by the one column he wrote once. This is a guy who claims to be a feminist, by the way.
Ted Rall is a liberal "cartoonist" who's such an attention-whoring hack that even the entire left hates his guts. His entire schtick is almost summed up as painting Bush and even Obama as tinpot "Generalissimo" dictators. He got fired a few years ago by making a cartoon about Bush that was so offensive it (again) angered even the left.
And because the universe is screwy like that, he's pals with CWC's older brother.

There are many ways to say "American" in spanish. Americano is one of the more common ones. I've heard "Estadounidense" too, but that's somewhat closer to "United Statesian".
Yanqui is probably just a transliteration of "Yankee".
I should also note that depending on where you live in the country, said term is not really appreciated.

must have satan
Is this kid going to grow up to be
This guy?
Y/N?
I don't know why I like Andale Mono so much. I just do.
The problem is not unique to Cracked.

Counterpoint.
If that's not quality writing, I don't know what is.
ROCK AND ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLL
Also Cracked and Mad have very, very little in common anymore.
Cracked used to be a Mad knockoff, but they really haven't been since the magazine-website transition.
That's not to say there isn't some terrible stuff on the site though *coughcoughJohnCheeseAndDavidWongcough*
Who is Ted Rall?
Would I recognize him from anything?

"Yankee", also that's only people from New England.
Anyway, I can see that.
Apparently Yanqui means American in Spanish
