  Re: Appleseed 4/17/2004
 
(...) I'm not really the biggest otaku on Lugnet, just the most vocal, I suspect. Domo arigatou! (...) Agreed. I'm still not sure what category this falls into. Maybe if they'd stop cutting away every time I try to focus :). (...) Yeah, that's what (...) (20 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: Appleseed 4/17/2004
 
(...) LUGNET's biggest Otaku (1) has spoken, and he's on MY side! ;-p (...) Of course, there are always exceptions. I welcome CG when it used for segments in anime that benefit from it, and/or that would look silly if they were drawn by hand. (...) (...) (20 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: Appleseed 4/17/2004
 
Okay, my $.02... Mladen: Agree, CG+anime=ugh, 99% of the time. See Blue Submarine No.6 or Vandread for good examples. On the other hand, there are anime like Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell that use CG very well. Jason: I think what Mladen's (...)

  Re: Dumb question, in all probability
 
(...) Oops--I meant 2.81% Dave! (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Dumb question, in all probability
 
(...) Ah! Now I get it, I think. So if the question is "What are the chances of drawing all white?" then the answer is 0.028142247%, but if the question is (as I stated it) "What are the chances of drawing all one color?" then the all-white chance (...)

  Re: Dumb question, in all probability
 
(...) Because out of all the possible outcomes (which together must sum to 1.0000, by definition) those are the two outcomes that match your description (all one color)... none of the other outcomes (BBBBW, BBBWB, BBBWW, etc etc etc ... keep (...)

  Re: Dumb question, in all probability
 
(...) I was on the right track until this step. Why are the BBBBB and WWWWW results added together? (...) Thanks for playing, in any case. Dave! (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Dumb question, in all probability
 
(...) Assuming a perfect draw (50% chance of either color if there are 100 candies present with 50 each) and that the draw is without replacement.. let's work the white case first, that is, what is the probability of WWWWW ? (...) (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Dumb question, in all probability
 
Assuming that a pack of the new Black&White M&M's has exactly 50 of each color, what are the odds that the first five candies drawn from the package will be of the same color? (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Sci Fi Novels --> movies
 
(...) It's been on the table for about 20 years now, and supposedly things were getting underway about four years ago (20th Century Fox, director of Speed/Twister, etc.). I can't find any info post-2002, though, and most of the solid stuff dates (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
