Comment on AKB48′s Minami Takahashi: “Why Can’t We Have Lovers!?” by Anonymous:

You know, she might actually be on to something. You let these chicks get hooked up, the fans loose interest, the idol thing dissolves, at least as far as that extreme goes. Creepy otaku get a life, maybe learn to stand up for themselves. And all it took was some public smooching.

Yeah, sounds idyllic, but it’d be a start. Of course, i know better. All the incentives flow the other way.

  maybe these no-life otaku need to shut the fuck up and mind their own business, if you dont like the fact that an actress(or actor) chose someone else to be with instead of you, then too fucking bad. suck it up and get a goddamn life.

  It doesn’t work for western stars. Plenty of old movies that have as a plot device that a star cannot date or reveal wive/husband so as not to upset the fans. There is a japanese tv drama/comedy that has Tsunku in it (man behind morning musume) where a male star has to keep his new wive a secret. It depends on what the star is selling. A talent or a fantasy. The western teen boy band fantasy where an average teen girl could have one of the band members as her boyfriend. Beatle mania anyone? …

  He seems to know it better than you do since he spends his life in a more useful way than yours.

  While specs might now mean everything, in the console war anyways, you do know that sony dropped the cell architecture for the ps4 right? Meaning that its about 10 times easier to develop on now. Granted not like I care since I’m sticking with my pc this generation.

  Lmao. Some PC gamers are posers and casuals as well. Take a look at you looking down on someone who’s circumstances you don’t know. What if that person is mobile all the time and loves to play games? Seems like half of the PC gaming community are douches like you who give pc gamers a bad name. Tsk Tsk Tsk.

  You are getting it backwards I think. Being x86 and close to PC means that porting from console to PC won’t be difficult. This matter has nothing to do with how to write optimized code for console. And 8 threads “very multi threaded”? lol Also, 8 threads is standard in ok PC for quite some time now.
