It was not on her to explain herself to Poe. It was on Poe to have faith in her leadership. As soon as he finds out her plan, he plans a mutiny. Because he thinks he knows better. He’d have done the mutiny earlier if she’d told him. That’s all. If he’d followed orders like everyone else in the Resistance, the plan…

Four .50s and one 20mm, all in the nose and boresighted straight ahead. The other birds had their guns in the wings and had to be set up with convergence zones so the full firepower of these planes had finite range.

Count me in as one of the ones that actively wants her parents to be nobodies (and by nobodies, I mean unnamed people who haven’t played a role in the Saga yet). If they end up being people who trained under Luke, fell in love, had a child and hid her when the Knights of Ren rose up, fantastic. Making her a Skywalker…

I mean, there is a really, really easy way to retcon it, too: just show the last scene of the show and then cut to a storyteller telling his story to the Royal Family (who look a bit different and are sitting in a room that doesn’t at all look like a warehouse) and he says, “And that’s how the Inhumans came to Earth.”

is there a place where i can listen to this without having to signup to spotify?

Sold to Amazon after the first and only season to try to recover production costs.

A gun is a significant lifestyle, training, mindset, and financial commitment. Don’t do it unless you’re willing to be serious about it, and recognize that it is a lethal force tool that can only be used in a lethal force situation. Carrying a gun means checking your ego at the door and backing down from every fight…

I was wondering the same thing! I’ve seen it twice now, and it was a dark scene but it looked to me like the gun was hanging beneath something. And we never saw the drone deploy. I feel like they would have made it evident that the drone split off again, so I’m voting on the spinner.

I just skimmed this, but I’m intrigued by the idea of putting Philadelphia inside a hole on the moon.

I’m upset that his name isn’t Mark Zuckerbird.

I think “abducted child who becomes a space adventurer” and “adult superhero who gets marooned offworld” are sufficiently different that no additional spin is needed.

I had a lot of dairy farmer friends growing up, and we used to drink it that way all the time. Generally you aren’t going to get any bacteria if you drink it right away, and you should be fine on the virus front if the cow is not sick and the area is clean. Though I wouldn’t buy raw milk from the store since I…

Wadder confirmed.

Something I really like about Disney’s approach to expanding the universe is that they’re keeping things relatively small and focusing on developing things they’ve already introduced to us rather than making things as sprawling as possible as quickly as possible. These droids were weird and cool in the comic, and it’s…

Got me again with the headline and no actual answer.

Everything.....EVERYTHING in the show ranges from good to fuck yeah.

I’m a native Texan, and I assume that Southerners do something that Texans do when speaking to people with “yankee” or British accents: overplay their own accent for effect when the situation calls for it. This is sometimes a way to encourage the natural tendency of the potential adversary to underestimate your…

I thought we’ve known this for a good long while? That Bluetooth on ANYTHING is a recipe for security disaster? Wasn’t that the joke from 24; that they’re all using these super-duper encrypted black ops government phones, at the tail end of which are eminently hackable Bluetooth headsets?

Let’s not ignore the #1 lesson that can be learned from this and ALL of the modern hacks:

With Android you can use NFC to turn the bluetooth on only when you need it, for example I have a Tec Tile near my front door that turns my wifi off and bluetooth on when I head to the car and vice versa when I come back. Of course it requires you to have NFC on all the time which is another vulnerability.
