Never underestimate human capacity for inventing horrible means of execution

Reviews I have read almost make it sound similar to World War Z the book in terms of format. The main characters are some journalists making their way across America and collecting stories/observing stuff about different situations going on during the conflict. It also sounds like the movie...

There have been studies related to kids who grew up with family pets or played in the dirt and how their immune systems developed/the occurrence rate of things like asthma. Effectively lower incidence It makes sense - while you increase risk of pathogens, you’re also increasing exposure to...

Sure they could. You'd probably just end up seeing franchised brothels while the bible belt cries about it openly but half their population secretly uses them but doesn't admit to it

Ok bye Episode was good. I liked how Anjin realized what he says have real consequences and how little he understands things (even though he is catching on fast) The landslide effect was awesome as well

Was that the same actress? Still was kind of funny the vault dweller is trying to talk the situation down and she is like “fucking vault dwellers…”

In any event, here is a scene from the show

The explosive heavy armor does help a bit - you don’t get 1 shot by cannon towers from what I have experienced You still get lit the fuck up by everything else though Heavy kits need a buff vs ranged damage to make them a better option vs bots, whereas with bugs you need speed to outrun the swarms

That’s still a reach and feels like odd catch22 logic If they had included that stuff, then some people would have complained about gay elements being included in the film and it would have been cut out of prints in certain countries to avoid the entire movie being banned, because some...

Wait...you're saying new Dune is woke because they made a character NOT gay? lolololol

The fundamental issue with some of those examples like Amazon Rings, Trek shows like Disco or Picard S1/2, new SW Trilogy: 1) Less skilled or less suited show runner handled them (ie, they don't understand the source material or intentionally are ignoring it) 2) Studio or actor meddling...

Yes, as the ones footing the money to produce stuff

So summed up, clearing more of the map and being near major POI = more spawns

Honestly I think there is some survivorship bias there. No one remembers the 1 or half season crapfests from 20 years ago, especially when there wasn’t a cottage industry which specifically tries to highlight the visibility of those types of projects to a wider audience

Is this going to be historically accurate and Franklin bangs his way across France?

Could be worse - could be Chadly or the girl Chadly AI that constantly talks during the data collection missions

The electric armor is good if you have multiple people running arc - you don't have to be as careful to avoid insta-gibbing a teammate, which is useful during big hordes

Yeah okay. Can I get some ranch dressing with that word salad?

I didn’t pay for the whole article, but I think you’re misinterpreting the summary. They’re making a distinction between industrialized and non industrialized societies and over all exposure to various wildlife and domesticated livestock and overall dietary fiber intake - that doesn’t mean...

The internet magnified sensitivity to it. 20-30 years ago or more you didn’t have a massive amount of rage farmers with global reach. Rage farmers did exist, but usually it was things like talk radio or other smaller scale mediums If Farscape came out today, I’m convinced it would have been...

No one likes overly preachy or blatant shit, regardless as to the message. Doesn't matter if it has an "agenda" or not. It could be some "drugs are bad, Mkay?" ABC Afterschool special, some blue hair giga fantasy that uses every SJW buzzword known to man, or some Evangelical produced dribble...

Not sure what is controversial about that statement about trying to make everyone happy. He's right - you can't. That linked article even points out the whole Bethesda Fallout vs. old 2D Fallout fan spats. This very forum highlights that shit constantly

Good episode with like 3 cliffhangers The lizard league fight was brutal

Stalker design is a vanilla WoW stunlock rogue in bug form

Had googled it quickly because I had no idea, I always assumed it was a 1 and done. But I had also assumed that about other childhood vaccines until I visited a doctor about 15 years ago and was told some like tetanus need refresher shots

The stun seems pretty short. If anything, it should be longer for callin attacks so they can actually hit enemies

I thought it was cool Godzilla won best special effects

If you like Japanese history, then definitely yes even if you don’t, it has a lot of classic dramatic elements that make it accessible for general audiences (fish out of water, political intrigue, modern weapons vs old weapons)

Great progress over the prior couple tests. Looks like some issues with re-entry and initiating landing protocols at the moment, but actually delivering the main vehicle to orbit safely was the biggest hurdle thus far

Some vaccines only last for a limited time. Things like tetanus last like a decade and you need occasional boosters. Measles I think is lifetime I had to look up polio and apparently it’s 10 years like tetanus

Antivax right wing are mostly the people who equated the politicized issues with COVID vaccines with ALL vaccines and the pre-COVID infowars dudes who think there are microchips. But before all the COVID shit, you also had the essential oil yoga mom neo-hippies who thought lavender cures...

No. Point is measles was eliminated in the US effectively decades ago because of vaccines. Now you have people from other countries with shitty vaccination rates bringing measles over and the disease is having a resurgence here because of lower vaccination rates for children because of all the...

With all the antivax morons not getting their kids measle shots and the like now, just a matter of time before polio makes a return and iron lungs come back into fashion

I think they nerfed the difficulty a little too much at difficulty 7 - I played a few games and we never once ran into any "oh shit" moments.

Chuk left himself open for a great ice burn there, but I’ll take the high road lol As for homicide, some cities or states will treat drug deaths as homicide.

Arc feels more effective than flamethrower now and also safer….I’ve encountered less arc bounce TKs than teammates running into burning ground patches and losing 75% of their Hp in 2 seconds

I wonder if it is similar to Imperial Palace speak. I recall from Japanese classes forever ago that there were different forms of words depending on who you are speaking to and the Imperial Palace had its own unique set of words and modifiers Then again, it could just be like what we do for...

There is of irony of them saying the “obvious weak point”, then referencing the head instead of the unarmored ass of the bug

While the label is dumb, I presume it is because it is dairy free (mashed potatoes commonly have milk or butter as part of the recipe)

Stomp might not work, but you can just walk over the tiny bugs and it auto-squishes them
