No. I don't see that all. A redirected asteroid would be a crappy weapon. It would take too long to capture, preposition, and drop. If the US military wanted to blow shit up from space they'd just build god rods.

A tricorder isn't much like a smartphone either the interface (buttons and a tiny screen as opposed to a large touchscreen) was way different and its main purpose was as a mobile sensor array. A smartphone is mainly a communication device.

I kind of agree with this. Axiom had some major problems but their standard of living was higher that it is in 2013. Everyone had food and entertainment. There was no sign of violence or war. If anything Axiom was a near paradise that could be refined into an even better one.

Why did everyone on San Angeles sound like they were on Thorazine?

"Mark David Chapman this is the president. America needs your help."

Does he even have a character to explore? I mean he's a machine. Someone voided his warranty and fucked with his programming. There's no depth to it. What would a malfunctioning machine do? It would spend every available hour pursuing its quest to make a human that loves him. It would unplug itself from a wall socket,…

The problem I have with that is I think I already understand everything thats important about Abe and I think nailing down the particulars of the events that lead him there are better left to the imagination. I know all I need to know.

I honestly don't see how you could expand the short without turning it into another slasher film.

I think a lot of the concepts explored in ME1 should have been explored rather than abandoned the way they were.

Which branch of Starfleet wears pink again?

Who would have guessed that teleportation technology would have outpaced genetic engineering technology?

I'm disappointed now.

Was that fisting and rectal prolapse joke taken from a kids show?

My guess was that SKYNET didn't have much of an army to begin with (a few military facilities commandeered at the last second and high priority targets for Russian missiles), it takes a lot of resources to build an autonomous killing machine and at least 2 billion people survived the initial war (granted I don't know…

If the last century is any indication it will be much better than we feared but still much worse than we hoped. We'll develop new technologies so amazing we'll struggle to comprehend their potential. These technological miracles will come with new technological horrors. However, human nature will still be the source…

I think we'd all eventually die of accident or violence. Even with advanced protective technologies one in a million chances become certainties over a long enough timeline. Everything dies although we can delay the inevitable and and increase our quality of life until then.

More like if we run out of fossil fuels we're fucked regardless of if there is a conflict. They're not trying to figure out how to run tanks and bombers. They're trying to figure out how to run everything. Otherwise we're gonna wind up in a mad max movie.

As mentioned before there's more to defense than just warfare. Energy security, medicine, and biological defense are examples.

I was like "WOW COOL" then "Is that a transformer? That's weird." until I was "FUCKING BULLSHIT!!!"

This is why we can't have nice things!
