    The Astronomy Thread

    The pictures make it look like the thing was riveted together by a drunk - but talented - farmboy in his barn, rather than some of the most cutting edge piece of technology mankind has ever created. Reminds me a bit of the Soviet space station in Armageddon. That said, if I did get an...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I do think that there is something to AAA game dev companies becoming too large. Most of the games I play these days come from small indy studios. Sure, the graphics are not as good (though that is becoming debatable), but the games are usually pretty good.

    Tyranny

    I wonder if this will at some point get the same treatment as KotOR2 got with a dedicated fan team modding in what was missing. I do enjoy both PoE games, and need to play this at some point. I really wish this series - and the engine itself - had had more success.

    Borderlands

    There's this skinny Russian porn star called Gina Gerson or something similar and when you first started talking about this woman playing Moxxi I thought "great fit hiring a porn star to do it, but why such a flat chested one?" Now I realise it's not her and I'm just confused.

    Borderlands

    Come to think of it, why is this even a live action movie? This should have been an animated film done in the same style as the games. Then you could have had Cate Blanchet and whoever speak the roles and no-one would care if they're 50, as long as they sound the part.

    Borderlands

    This either passed me by completely, or I saw it mentioned a while back and forgot about it. Either way, I saw the advert for this yesterday. My first reaction was "ooh a Borderlands movie, interesting". Then I saw Cate Blanchett as Lilith and first I wondered who the hell had asked her to play...

    If we're going to be delving into the whole "The Big Bang Theory is Wrong" rabbit hole then there is a shit ton of stuff to talk about here. Personally, I have long doubted the theory - if only for the (as my avatar famously said) saying: "Just give me one free miracle, and I'll explain...

    I've always wondered about these economics. And it's not just one Twitch stream. There was a picture posted in the FSR on Jan 1st of a few thousand people in some city square, everyone had their phone up recording the transition to the new year. Most of those videos will be uploaded to some sort...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    So a week ago I posted some pictures of a Römertopf clay pot I found. Turned out it was my Grandmother's and she died 40 years ago, so it hasn't been used in a while. I ended up finding some videos on how to use it and made a beef stew from a combination of these two videos. I browned three...

    The simple answer is to just allow people to edit their algo and interface like a normal civilisation would have done. But we can't have that in Globohomo algo world.

    Found this in my Mother's closet. It must be 40 or 50 years old, at least. I know my Mother has never used it, probably came from my Grandmother. I thought it was maybe completely unused, but when I opened it it does look like it was used once or twice. I have no idea what it is or how to use...

    She reminds me of that wife who posted here a while back before naffing off after her marriage went to shits. She posted a pic of herself in her bra. Similar milkers. Good times. Can't remember her name. Just her tits. The way God intended it to be! Pic unrelated

    We're getting dumber, and it's measurable, because our entire society now revolves around helping idiots have children while the smart ones don't. Back then, if you were not smart enough to figure out what was going on, you would not thrive, and probably would die. Recent studies where the...

    It's a legacy from 15 years of low to zero interest rates. Basically any and all startups could grow quickly even with little to no income as the cost of borrowing was so low. Now that we have money that costs, you can't do this shit any more, but a generation of people don't know how to...

    Never heard of Vulcan before, had to google it. Turns out it's ULA's "next-gen" heavy launcher. But it's still only single use. I'd have thought single use - at least in the US market - was by now dead thanks to Space-X? I mean, can they launch cheaper on single use rockets than Space-X can on...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    It seems like only yesterday I was 20 years old, working 60-70 hour 6-7 day workweeks, back breaking manual labour (summer job albeit) and yet I still had energy to play hours of complex RPGs per day. Now I'm in my 40s, I work a 36 hour a week desk job shuffling papers and I can barely find the...

    Yeah, I have never seen it shown like this before. Usually most video footage of new volcanoes is either from so far away you can barely make it out, or the footage starts just after the eruption starts. Cheap, but good cameras tied to a cell phone or whatever they use should be setup in more...
