They didn’t immediately shut it down. With the opening of the gates and all those new habitable planets it became more appealing for Martians. Eventually they just wouldn’t have the people they needed. Plus the entire economy of the solar system has been shaken up. It’s probably more expensive for Mars to get the…

He probably wasn’t even looking for sabotage in the form of code.

They probably did check it for sabotage, but likely only physical signs of sabotage in the engine, the core and the mechanical parts.

I assumed that Holden did have someone else check the Roci, but Naomi’s code is just so good, if you don’t know what you are looking for, you won’t see it. 

Why not?  Mars is - at this point - approaching the status of a failed state.  Her population is dropping like a stone and the economy is shot to fuck.  Add into that corruption within the Martian government and it becomes very believable.  There’s already an example of this sort of shit happening:  when the USSR…

as Pontifex said below, wait for it.

Neutral: Honestly, it’s a pretty bad time for most of my clients, which means it’s a bad time for me.

13 million of that is going to have to cover the lawsuit or potential lawsuits.

This is a bit ironic since it kiiiinda feels like it had to have been the investors and C-suite guys who forced this out earlier than any of the devs ever wanted.

Probably the same people who think Mao and Stalin did nothing wrong and were just totally fighting imperalism (aka Tankies). 

I think because we see early on (in the books) that Filip is damaged by Marcos.  When Filip does something good, its Marcos who claims credit, when something goes bad, Filip gets the blame.  We have yet to really see that with Filip so far.

I dunno, I always felt the uncanny valley effect with CLU really helped establish his lack of humanity. If he’d looked just like a younger Bridges the effect wouldn’t have been as jarring.

Such a good, misunderstood movie. Maybe not the TRON sequel I wanted, but it’s definitely grown on me. 

I know the movie has a lot of detractors, and to a degree I get it (yes, we know CGI Jeff Bridges is a rubbery uncanny valley and I’d love for them to go back and deepfake in a better version), but I absolutely love the movie and this soundtrack in particular is a big reason. I also grew up both with the original…

Screen space is wonderful. I’ve had a 27" monitor for years but I finally upgraded to a 1440p display running at 144hz. I’ve paired it with an old 24" 1080p display, only because I ran out of desk space to stick my previous 27" monitor next to the new one.

Quite possibly the best episode of the series, up there with the midpoint in season 3 when they wrapped up the second book. They did the thing and then DID IT AGAIN IN RAPID SUCCESSION! Wow. And damn I love Holden. Grabbing the floating gun was a cool zero G shot. And damn, this show is just so good. I knew this would…

I have a ridiculous crush on both of them.

This is the first time I’ve seen hair like that in a game that didn’t suffer from horrific aliasing. It legit looks next-gen.

To be fair, not every light on the BMW’s dash is illuminated.
