I don't view it as an attack, merely a confusing lack of understanding. Your link while appreciated is not in fact any better at the point I was trying to make. Social interaction with groups of people is not an interview, nor is it something easily or appropriate to document and cite.

I'm with you on much of that. From just a design perspective it should have never made it past concept stage. and I'm including the suggested info about the ball being a storage container/tool box. It's a horrible trade off to get a better speed on flat surfaces in exchange for almost all functionality.

sure I'd gladly provide sources for hundreds of personal social interactions in communities from tech and maker communities, and crafters groups, debate groups, employment, and social gatherings. Across three continents.

It's great info and all but the thing that worries me the most about many millennials is I see more of them advocating for eugenics, forced assimilation of ethnic groups whose culture doesn't match the given persons expectations, sterilizing those who partake of social programs like food stamps- unemployment or child…

"including such behaviors and problems as pattern seeking (a la John Nash), seizures, information overload, anxiety attacks, existential crises, egomania, and extreme alienation." Aside from the seizures that pretty much describes my average week. I don't think I'd rank myself as super intelligent or psychotic…

when do these posts come up? It always seems I find out about them the day after people are posting.

You mean you haven't figured out how to do that yet. Pffft, noob.

my first assumption was that the bots head was the entirety of the bot and it was just riding a ball. It struck me as a bit too much like "batteries not included" the movie. I figured it's possible that it's along the lines of some of the ball bots that exist now:

I've no problem with the rolling ball. The astromech I'm building is using the universal roller ball with two movable wheeled legs to move more efficiently the three tiny tracks. I've also seen the single wheel top heavy but guro stabalized bots that are being made these days. They work well enough (though spheres…

I found it too. It took me a bit, but I'm thinking it might actually be a bit blurry a bent 'pull left'. Posted that above somewhere.

it's not a matter of scale I'm talking about so much as 1) Scared/panic 2) super cutesy 3) Storm tropers in formation about to go into action 4) the desperate need to get away from something 5) the staredown by a gritty pilot on a mission of attack 6) X-wings in a predatory swoop 7) desolate landscape with dark…

wait wait wait, I think I got it. 'Pull Left' which is fitting as it's on the left side of the pilot and it's printed upsidedown for the pilots ability to read it. might be instructions for the vest features on the center with all the buttons an what not. Possibly a parachute of something like that.

1) why? why would somebody chibi i-pod an R series astromech?

something about it feels off. It's hard to put my finger on it thought. Stylewise it seems none starwars, and little things like the lighting and camera technique feel like trying too hard.

because the origin story is generally the point at which the character goes from being just another person like any of us to being somebody who does extra ordinary things in the course of their story.

I suppose technically he doesn't have a sex really. But the character is generally accepted to have a gender. But even if both of those where absent in no way does that equate to hermaphrodite, nor is poohbear intersexed by most any definition of the word, which I think is what the person speaking was trying for.

My mother once commented to me a couple of years after my father died of a heart attack and the topic of heart disease being more prevelent in men came up "Will that still be the case in a few decades with more and more women moving into previously male dominated fields?" and you know what, it's a damn good question.

I tend to think it's less I'll bean you with a rock and more "There is only food enough for 1200 to barely survive to the next harvest. There are 1400 of us. We must all share. and so 1400 die because nobody has enough.

I think it's also important to keep in mind that just because I've no idea how many pistons are in the engine of my car doesn't mean my car won't blow a piston in the midst of me rushing to get to a job interview. And no matter how heroic your character sometimes like has to kick them too or they're not relatable as a…

ankylo was my favorite dino as a kid.
