    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    This is a good video explaining the problems with FTL travel: But it left me wondering that maybe FTL travel IS possible but the things that break causality simply aren't possible to perform? He makes the assumption that one could transmit FTL information while traveling at sub-light speeds...

    Deathloop (PC, PS5) (Bethesda)

    I never even heard of this. Looked up an IGN review and they gave it a "10"??

    Final Space

    It'll be forever backed up on Usenet.

    Just wanted to say thanks for linking this. Fantastic YouTuber no doubt.

    Untitled Cloverfield Sequel

    Wasn't 10 Cloverfield originally unrelated to Cloverfield and they added the alien stuff at the end to make it work? Great movie regardless.

    Also wish they would've found a different acronym for Uploaded Intelligence. "UI" is universally thought of as "user interface".

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    I hadn't seen this until it popped up under a "Drinker Recommends" YouTube video. Man, what an awesome movie Dredd was. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I think I read somewhere that it's already been renewed.

    Babylon 5

    Yeah, why CW? What the hell?

    Babylon 5

    Yeah, same here. I think the last time I rewatched the entire series was back in 2010. And I too remember having to suffer a bit until towards the end of season 2.

    Pantheon

    I've only watched the first episode, but thought it was pretty engrossing. Reviews are pretty stellar.

    Stargirl

    The grocery store fight scene was incredibly well done I thought. The gymnastics were completely convincing. No one had that floaty-on-a-wire look.

    Stargirl

    Bump for those that don't realize it's back. It's not the greatest thing ever, but is fun and mostly non-woke.

    Babylon 5

    Anyone know if the audiobook is any decent? I have a ton of Audible credits.

    Babylon 5

    For me, Sheridan going to Z'ha'dum was one of the most epic moments in sci-fi television. And one hell of a cliffhanger.

    Babylon 5

    B5 is my favorite sci-fi series of all time. But keep in mind the CGI will look pretty dated. Though season 3+ still looks decent imo.

    Scraping data from news/social media sites?

    There used to be a way to make a website available offline. Could you do that instead? Is this all static content?

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    It's really odd, because the channels I sub to are all different types of content, and like I said all of a sudden, they are all doing Shorts. And I agree, I think the shit is stupid. Apparently, people just sit around scrolling through short videos? Totally bizarre.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Why the fuck are all the content creators on YouTube ALL OF A SUDDEN doing YouTube Shorts?

    Tequatl is a cool, quick event that has a chance of an ascended weapon chest.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I definitely don't have a lot of faith they'll meet their release goal. They've already had a couple of mandatory work weekends. I don't mind that occasionally, but I think panic will start to set in soon (release is supposed to be in October) and it's going to be all hands-on deck probably...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Some of you may remember that I changed jobs back in April from a full stack web developer to strictly UI using Angular. I wasn't unhappy with my former job, but the new job offer was a significant pay increase, so I would've been stupid to turn it down. Anyhoo, former job contacted me a...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    You think so? For whatever reason, I find her totally unattractive. She's not ugly of course, but just something about her looks annoys me.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    On a side note, why did Tolkien choose very similar sounding names for two major characters?

    Guild Wars 2

    Judging by all the mechs present during open world events, I'd say yes.

    Running a Celestial Firebrand currently. Kind of late to the party on this build, but man it's fun.

    Guild Wars 2

    You have xp boosts and food that grants bonus xp. Good grief, it definitely isn't a slog. Later, doing dailies and daily login rewards you'll get xp scrolls and tomes. I think I have over 200 tomes of knowledge in the bank. That's two free lvl80 characters if I wanted.

    Guild Wars 2

    I've been playing the game for years and still haven't worked through all the LW stuff. I don't think it's terrible or anything. I just hate doing story shit in any game. For PvE, I just get a kick out of trying out different builds across the various professions, running around solo'ing...

    Guild Wars 2

    That's what it should do. If you kept spamming your attack it'll auto target the next mob. Unless you just want to walk away from the keyboard and have it continuously attack whatever is in range??

    That's my key combo, not sure if it's assigned by default.

    House of the Dragon

    No no, it was quite clear when he said he lost his wife and son. Just during the birth scene I thought everything was fine.

    Did I blink? I totally missed that the child didn't make it

    That was a finale? Dammit. Yeah, I don't know how much of this is for comedy vs real Nathan. Rather sad.

    It's in a downtrend and has been running sideways for weeks. Totally expected.
