As opposed to you, a dipshit on the internet who probably couldn’t repair an RC car, let alone plan, assemble, program, launch, and land a probe on another planet.

Man, it’s really frustrating watching Activision continue to be the embodiment of what’s wrong with the gaming industry. The constant search for instant gains, instead of long-term success. The trend chasing, the constant ‘safe’ bets, the desire for mass market appeal.

So apparently Trump called up a Navy officer around Thanksgiving time to... complain about the electromagnetic launch catapults on the new Gerald R. Ford carriers.

The main problem with is is that heavy ammo bricks give 50+ rounds. On an automatic weapon that kills in three shots at all ranges. People are grabbing heavy ammo, then camping the next ammo drop and slaughtering anyone trying to go for it.

I’m PRETTY sure this post is entirely tongue-in-cheek.

Because he advertised himself as “holding the US accountable” and that was/is a pretty popular stance to take outside of Republican circles. The people who still defend him still haven’t figured out that Assange’s feelings about the US are closer to Putin’s than... a non-American’s who believes the US needs to be held…

The evidence for extraterrestrial life is life here on Earth. If the biochemistry is possible here, it must be possible wherever else there are similar conditions. Given a practically infinite number of star systems and planets, the probability that conditions here on Earth are unique to Earth and exist nowhere else…

The problem is there are no real alternatives. No one else has a capsule and launch vehicle that can get humans into space. As for why the US is only now getting human-rated capsules ready for testing and certification, blame Congress.

NASA and Roscosmos have had a very good working relationship for the most part, despite the animosity between their respective governments. The very legitimate fear in working with China is that the Chinese will steal every piece of technology that isn’t bolted down. Then come back with power tools and steal the stuff…

It looks like they were shooting melons. But still, a melon slinged to the face is going to leave a mark.

Much easier to just use a nuclear-powered melt probe. Rockets need fuel, and to fire them on Europa’s surface, you need to haul that fuel to Europa.

Going back to the original topic, you put enough people in a room and it gets hot. Keep enough people in a big room and they sweat. Doesn’t matter if everyone showered beforehand, used soap, scrubbed their pits.

Also, the idea of watching esports as being ‘low status’ really rubs me the wrong way. How is it any lower…

Yes, because traditional sports fans are the epitome of personal hygeine.

The two practically required weapons for the raid are both from quests, not randomly. Aside from High-Impact scout rifles, you can plenty useful with any combination of legendary weapons, unless the perks on all of your drops are awful. I’ve seen all sorts of guns in Crucible, where the weapon meta used to be super…

When I watched two Falcons defenders ricochet harmlessly off of Drew Brees and let him score a touchdown, I knew we would never again get a chance to blow a dominating lead to loose the Super Bowl.

Supreme Court Justices can be impeached, right? I mean, there has to be SOME way out of this clusterfuck, even if it isn’t the prettiest, right? Didn’t California try to impeach some of their State Supreme Court Justices over spending public money on frivilous shit?

Of course you can replicate the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The problem is, you have to put in a lot of time and a lot of effort in order to get a payday like Marvel did. Everyone trying to copy Marvel, including Star Wars, wanted the payday without putting in the time or effort.

For all of those complaining about the high light-level requirements to do the Wish Ender quest, recall Bungie did the same thing for the Whisper of the Worm. You had to be near 380 to complete the mission in time (or you could get carried by people who already had the Whisper). The main difference is, we found out…

You can’t directly see magnetic field lines, either, but we can measure the effects of a magnetic field. You can’t see the warping of spacetime by massive objects, but you experience the effects of that warping as gravity.

A lot of the food we throw out is either unsold product that’s discarded because it’s not fresh anymore, or food that doesn’t ‘look’ good. Like double-carrots or misshapen apples. They’re still perfectly fine to eat.
