As much as I love seeing somebody on a stream—sadly I still haven’t managed to buy the game —scrambling for cover with almost no health, only to have the bullet that would’ve killed them go *Ping!* off the frying pan on their back, giving them enough time to make it around the corner... The machinist in me knows that…

I mean - I don’t think it’s unreasonable to acknowledge that certain franchise properties carry the weight of certain kinds of expectation surrounding them. For comparison, when Star Wars movies come out - the fan chorus of naysaying and fanboying swell operatically, even before the broad ubiquity of social media.…

Found the real answer, they just went with the cheapest lidar on the market right now, only 8grand a sensor. So with those ones it makes sense to use a lot of them. Same company’s highest end ones which people would use to just have one or two are 6figures a pop

There is an amazing field of digital archaeology and preservation emerging right now.

More like ketchup.

Logically feasible yet creatively ridiculous, oddly entertaining, brilliantly and shamelessly insane...this is why I keep coming here. What will you come up with next?

One, Mike Judge needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine. Two, whenever Mike Judge is not onscreen, all the other characters should be asking ‘Where’s Mike Judge?

Very interesting but does anybody know where I can find an illustrated timeline of why Mike Judge is king of the pop-culture hill?

Midnight-Snack-Flyer?

MMMM SPACESHIP TASTY

Well, “Take Out” is the other side of the coin of “Dine In”, so it makes sense.
