Oh shit, BITcoin???

I think it was cancelled because it was bad.

Am extremely psyched for this series, and glad to see serious dollars being put into it.

(including Karen Gillian’s scantily dressed Ruby Roundhouse)

In some senses, it’s really a language issue. IE: “hacking.” Maybe it’s just me, but while I’m up for using science to improve my health and well-being, there is something inherently un-human about “hacking” my body. There are definitely convincing arguments to be made for either side though—I could see saying that…

Sorry you feel it’s unbalanced! The point here, though, is not a referendum on these technologies. Clearly, deep brain stimulation to quell Parkinson’s tremors, depression, etc are and can be amazing technologies. My point is the perspective from which those innovations come: Silicon Valley “hacking” versus the slow,…

That’s my problem with how Silicon Valley thinks about humans, they don’t have the slightest idea of how the human body works, like that soylent green guy.

And that is also part of the problem with the view that science is this bastion of purity and absent of any unscientific pressure (political or otherwise). It’s not. Academia, and specifically the academic research funding, peer review, tenure, and publishing processes, are subject to a huge amount of academic…

Yeah but Dick Cheney has never lived in Iceland, so that’s HUGE factor in choosing it over Wyoming.

That sounds awesome.

The story follows Alanna and Marko as they run away from their respective races after Hazel is born and try to find some sort of peace, all the while being followed by bounty hunters…

I enjoyed it. I agree, it was corporate interference and ignorance that killed it.

Oh HELL yes! If they’re going to pick a woman, Helen Mirren would be fantastic! If they want to go with a man, Simon Pegg, please :)

Casting sorted.

They’re going to need a shedload of CGI to make that happen...

Yes...we have not none have visited...

By the way, this is how one of editors woke me up in the middle of the night:

Gah! That was my final correction but it slipped through somehow! I got a bit obsessed with the consciences and consciousnesses in the closed captions (slight paranoia about my accent being too thick for an international crowd) and clearly missed it. Please don’t take it as anything more than the standard journalist’s…

No, it's probably the Daily Mail UK or some other journalism fail that felt they needed a more eye-catching or headline-making image for their story. Kind of like this site, which went with "Lies You've Been Told About The Pacific Garbage Patch" instead of "Things that have been Misinterpreted in the Media, or else…
