Is that an adaptation of the webnovel or an entirely separate thing? *EDIT* Looks like it's the 2025 movie adaptation, so here's the book series from which it came: Amazon.com

Don't say that to any astronomer.

I started that on Apple II. Import to France did cost a fortune. Ultima III was priced at around 150$ at the time (1983). Not inflation adjusted, 150$ of then-dollar. But at least it did have a nice cloth map.

I never had a C64. I had its poor brother, the VIC-20, but there was almost no software for it.

Oh, my sweet summer child...

And I assume we'll have to wait for the book version...

Math doesn't work out. Kill/Respawn are $-neutral for the game devs, so the only 1$ they make is when you begin your play session. To afford a $ 10-per-hour payout, they need enough bots THEY operate to kill you (for free) so they can get your $10 before the hour ends.

She died a few years ago.

It's probably bringing back home the bacon - not the only from Circe's pigs - easily.

Got dragged to this yesterday, so I'll give my honest review: Decent-to-maybe-good movie, but not worth rewatching ever. Enjoy in cinemas with good company, otherwise not. I'd rather rewatch Tenet in a cinema every five years before I rewatch The Oddyssey. So, first, the DEI. The casting is...

Apparently, satellite tracking had their "Y2K bug" moment, too.

I loved that game (the Atari ST port, never played it on Apple II).

I was telling someone that the reason why Paris doesn't have much in term of AC is because it's basically Montana, or even slightly north of that. I should have checked the predictions before speaking...

Truth. I'm happy that this thread let me discover this hidden gem. It's kind of the same premise as the old Arrogant Young Master Template A, Variation 4, but better (and way more regular)...

Wait for it...

And I do buy bluerays. When there's one.

And I would if someone sold it to me. But as seen, they don't sell those movies. They provide you with a license whose terms you did not negotiate, and that can be revoked at any time. So I can't buy the movie from a legitimate seller? I'll buy it from the black market instead. And that's what...

Welcome to the - Desperado - Club, Crawler!

Minor general spoiler alert: I dropped after book 7.

I love the "14668% funded". I also contributed to that number. I still haven't opened any of the first 9, I'm waiting for the full set to do a hardcover re-read...

I still remember when he launched the story on RR, then apologized because "I will probably switch from system to cultivation, because."

Quick analysis of the failed test by the usual bald Scottish KSP engineer:

And those scores means?...

Finally done. I can now say "Boop".

I'm mostly waiting for next week and DCC.

Still fighting depression/burnout (retirement, here I come), and I exhausted my Baen backlog. So, I picked an old series, Sean Oswald's Welcome to the Multiverse. Systems are basically merged god pantheons, and competing for resources and fighters for said competition. Earth gets put in a...

Projection rarely does.

Progression fantasy. "Modern" LitRPG authors (basically, 80% of those writing on RR for the last three years) tend to devolve from pure system-driven growth (XP) to a cultivation-like system, so there is a large blur between the two. Cradle doesn't have any LitRPG element. Defiance of the Fall...

They gain one core skill slot per level, two inner spirit slots per level, and four (?) outer spirit slots per level. So, at level 25, that's 150 or 175 total. My primary annoying bit is that they always blow raspberries at each other. All the time.

I assume you're reading the first books off Kindle Unlimited, since book 10 went up last month. What I like in the series is that each arc is well different (except when you stretch an interstellar war over 2 books, 10 & 11). Travelogues, politics (you may be OP, but politics >>> you), and...

I'd rather drink coffee. Preferably the best coffee, the one that went through the mangoose.

One of the history streamers I watch had this perfect take: "Remember: When an archeologist says an item may have a ritualistic nature, he really means that he has no fuckin' idea what it is."

Stop disseminating the recipe for Koign-Amann https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kouign-amann (also known as "butter with more butter and maybe some sugar and dough")

That's basically Deepak Choprah territory, or at best Roger "I am a big physicist, there a big biologist!" Penrose delirium. Your microtubules use Quantum Physics, therefore are weird. Guess what's weird due to Quantum Physics? Photosynthesis (and Solar Cells - which is what gave Einstein his...

Yes, Travis Deverell is an aussie. Anyone who starts their site with "Thanks, mate" can't be anything else.

I taught my dad how to keep his browsing secure from Mom.

But I can deceive all my coworkers just fine. Damn AI!
