Nah, my point is people trying to use a specific religion as a basis for putting down a particular culture is ultimately hypocrisy if you follow another religion, because they’re all ultimately a) equally as illogical when you boil right down to it - literally the only thing almost all religions...

Steak made in a parking lot with a crackhead setup will probably be better than what you would get at that Outback lol

Ya, those silly people. Too bad they didn't believe in a real religion with more believable and rational things like a dude talking to a burning bush and then using magic to make the ocean spread apart. Also, don't forget burning heretics to appease the skyman! You have to keep in mind the...

Like original game release? or the emu server release? Original game release they changed quite a bit - they had the whole City of Villains expansion and added stuff like building a superhero base When the game launched in Germany, they removed the Nazi badguys pretty much at the sametime and...

That's pretty cool - at least makes it more official now. I wonder what the development limitations in the contract are

They were just like humans all over the earth. You had the peaceful ones, the warlike ones, the trustworthy ones, and scheming ones. Some fought each other, some didn’t, etc. Same with the colonists or European ventures. Although a good chunk of that initial wave (like from Spain) it was...

I'm not commenting on the 85% figure (that seems high). You're underplaying the impact of a disease on a population that has not had multiple generations to essentially select against genes that make a person predisposed for having a bad/lethal outcome to the disease. Of course Europe is going...

Yup. Shadowbane was a huge world which was like 80% barren plains. Granted they needed space for players to build cities, but the actual outcome was a lot of non-content. Even the developed spots were mostly just forests with the occasional POI sprinkled in it Games that focus on “zomg our...

Jesus dude, look up history of Canada and the US. There are plenty of historical accounts of trade networks and hubs from the Spanish, French, etc.

They had trading networks and hubs. The French fur traders exploited the existence of this heavily to get goods they needed, like pemmican

Another good point - the Black Plague was devastating on Europe, so there is plenty of evidence of a non-resistant population suffering heavy mortality rates to disease. 40-60% of the population died from it. This fucking smooth brain "hur dur diseases don't kill lots of people" is what...

It does make a disease potentially more lethal or impactful because the population was never exposed to it and therefore you don’t have a population descended from people who survived the disease in the past and therefore genetic predisposition to a bad disease outcome had not been weeded out...

Disease was the main factor in the conquest of the New World. It's quite feasible that colonization would never have been as rapid as it was in our history if that were not the case. That and existing political rivalries that fractured what could have been a unified front against European...

He used the wrong argument for Bobby. You have to speak in a language he understands Review bombing being toxic to the CM people, he wouldn't care. Review bombing driving people away from the game and in turn, less profits from the RMT shit, he would care.

She probably just wasn't captured. But ya, really solid finale. Last 3 episodes were my overall favorites. That teaser shot at the end of the last episode was pretty cool if you watched the Loki finale.

The 1602 episode that came out today was cool. Guess we find out what Supreme Strange is up to tomorrow

It’s always the Rani or Valeyard until it isn’t

Fansly has tried that already afaik

Episode 7 was decent - Hera and the ancient Shang Chi universe was fairly entertaining

It feels like half of the fans of Chronicles of Riddick love it because it is the closest thing they've had to a Warhammer 40k movie lol

The carry-on problem only exists because airlines started to charge for any checked baggage. As a result, people try to cram as much shit into the "free" carry-on bag and it eats up the limited space available to stow carry-on luggage. Yes, the people trying to game the system at the expense...

Disney+

Episode 6 suffered by trying to cram an entire hero origin story into less than 30 minutes. Conquistadors in New York I can kind of forgive since Nordic history was changed by Odin never going to there and dropping off the Tesseract there and maybe the Spanish decided to land in NE America for...

Episode 6 is out - the ending of 5 and the ending of 6 seems to be connecting to an larger scope finale.

There is also Onx - it's a lot of the old Ignite people on there.

I liked episode 5. I thought it would just be a straight up retelling of Winter Soldier, but I liked how they brought in the Red Room stuff. The scene with the robots reminded me of something you'd see in Fallout.

Episode made me think the writers were given a synopsis of the movie Labyrinth and then got confused I know they’re trying to make “mystery girl” again as a companion theme. I bet Ruby is the “mother” that drops off the baby to satisfy a timeloop. Her DNA test coming up with no matches for...

Ya, they releasing one a day. Episode 4 came out today

EP1 was best of the bunch so far. EP2 was a cool concept, but needed better writing and would have probably worked better with a grim end. EP3 was a throw away holiday episode. EP4 was basically Marvel Wacky Racers. Next episode will probably be Captain Carter vs. Steve Rogers who has been...

Ya, when I wrote that I immediately added movie because Lexx definitely wins the horny Sci-Fi award for all media

This was the real problem - college quickly transformed from "you should go to college to get a nice job in a field that needs a degree" to "you need to go to college because companies are starting to make a degree mandatory for any job". The companies didn't need it to be a degree with any...

Haven't tried a looter-shooter since Outriders, so might give this a go

Barbarella is the gold standard for horny sci-fi movies

Season 2 Episode 1 came out today. Was kind of cool - had a Bladerunner vibe to it. Looks like 1 episode comes out a day for this

A fine after he was locked up in Japanese prison/jail for months. I doubt he has a work visa or student visa, so I suspect they’ll make him leave the country after this is done

Hmm https://www.bbc.com/news/business-67782869

I forgot about that - the season 1 elements highlighted a more positive view on true belief in the message vs corrupt people cloaking themselves with “belief” as a means to enrich themselves. Like for example, the humble priest that just wants people to be good to eachother vs the televangelist...

Since when has that last bulletpoint ever been part of Castlevania? Dude is tipping his hand with that Culturally Japan and Christianity have had a very complicated relationship and that is usually reflected in the games and media from that country.

Bubbling is something mormons would frequently do as a "loophole" because the person isn't technically naked lol
