““I got this wrong, and I take responsibility for that.””

No, Mark, you are making 11,000 other people take responsibility for that. You are taking no responsibility.

Plenty of people don’t want to look into the night sky and see commercialized visual pollution, dipshit

Brandon Sanderson made extensive usage of this phenomena in his Stormlight books. Granted the writer has a knack for creating truly unique systems of “magic” for his works. The man is a writing machine.

It looks cool. And, thanks to Daft Punk doing the score for Legacy, it sounds cool too.

I seriously think that’s the bulk of the appeal. The original film’s effects were largely unprecedented in 1982, and Legacy at least had interesting art direction. The rest was hardly original but the parts that were good were…

They should scrap all the rest of them while they’re at it.

A machine is not creating art.

I understand why they would be upset about it and it does suck if it’s forcing artists out of positions... but it’s also kinda great for creators too, right? Like it might allow someone who can design characters but not backgrounds to create more interesting scenes if they have the AI generate their background. And…

Per the article, he DID identify himself.

The reason people consider it hard sci fi is because it does take a lot of the science and culture aspects very seriously. The physics of how they fly doesn’t ignore things for convenience. The combat takes into account how the vast open spaces would affect things, and there’s depth to the various nations and their…

Honestly, I’m completely on board. While the show didn’t get to cover the last few books (a shame), it absolutely managed to be better than the books by very smartly building off the hard work of the original writing team, streamlining things, making things make more sense, building important characters more early on,…

Cara Gee was a fucking BOSS on that show.  

It’s all hard sci-fi—rooted in the physics and science of reality. You’ll find no Jedi here, in other words.

I’d be down.  I don’t paint physical minis much anymore because of the time and cost involved.  Digitally that will be a lot less of an issue 

hey!

Yeah, holy crap. Is this the level of automotive expertise and insight we should come to expect here? To me, this issue is so fucking...basic? What next, a story on wipers that move at different speeds? YOU’RE USING YOUR WIPERS WRONG PEOPLE!

Seriously? You didn’t know that many cars have this lane change tap function? Shame! As for the self-cancelling signals on a motorcycle, my 1986 Honda VFR had that yet none of my newer bikes (2001,2007, 2012 Hondas, Ducatis and BMWs) did.

It’s not an investment. It’s gambling. Gambling is a form of entertainment.

When the jackpot gets big enough to be in the news, I buy tickets. For me, it’s worth a few bucks to have the chance to win, and to dream about what you’d do with the winnings.  Dreaming about $1000 isn’t worth a dollar to me.  I don’t dream…

Having played through the game twice, I just assumed everyone had figured out that constantly weaving left and right was what you’re meant to do during the chase sections.
