One does not invalidate the other.

Ehh, once Giz has decided a thing is bad, it’ll always be bad.

Aww, technophobic gizstans stick together. How cute.

I go on vacation to go somewhere and see that place.

SG1 and SGU didn’t feel so different because of improvements in VFX, they felt different because the Stargate folks thought that they could do Battlestar Galactica (and were mistaken).

Frankly, I think animation is the only way to do Babylon 5 and retain the aesthetic of the original show. The original show was so wonderfully colorful and cartoony (thanks to 1990s low scifi budgets) that the gritty realism of post-2000 space opera scifi (e.g. Battlestar Galactica, the Expanse, Firefly) just doesn’t…

This. So much this.

That’s a dumb take. I have never seen a candidate whose cover letter was a deciding factor. Literally just have one, and if your resume is good, you’ll get a phone interview.

It’s also a fact that sometimes you’re being interviewed for a job just to provide cover for the fact that the company has already decided who they want for a particular role—or has possibly already…

But everyone else, you included (maybe), are safely morally superior to, if not sarusa, than sarusa’s post.

Go. Back. Further.

That’s how many of humanity’s oldest civilizations operated — the people owned and controlled the means of production.

We label the exceptions.

Aw, gee, Gizstan is angy.

But they’re not, so putting a “for-profit” label on them is useless
