    Pets

    Backyard squirrels. Very low maintenance with zero emotional attachment. If one dies, can't tell since they all look alike.

    The Flash

    Yeah it's pretty boring, honestly. Getting tired of evil speedster antagonist every season. ALSO, another pet peeve, if you travel into the future you will not see your future self!

    The Expanse

    Jesus H Christ, it's not like we're 7 seasons in or something. Just sit down and watch it.

    The Flash

    Can someone explain to me why Caitlin becomes all murderous when her freezy powers get turned on? Also, the thing with Iris is just dumb. She should go to a remote island somewhere and hang out until this whole Savitar thing blows over.

    Dark Souls 3

    I just started playing this (PS4). Are the Dark Souls servers unstable as shit? I keep getting booted out -- error about being disconnected from the server. Fucking annoying.

    Silicon Valley

    Richard's idea of a "new internet" really wouldn't work, would it? You can't just piggy back on people's cell phones. Those networks are owned by the various telecommunication corps and certainly isn't "free". An individual user's data usage would skyrocket. Also, the processing power of a...

    I ain't no stinkin' liberal!

    Eight Values

    Yeah, same here and I'm disturbed by the word "liberal" being in there. But from Wikipedia: Which sounds about right. Looks like I'm a hardcore capitalist from the graph.

    Fargo

    It sortof is. Dude lying down with a figure (child with the figurine, robot on the book cover) standing over him. Personally, I wouldn't have immediately drawn the connection like she did but I'm not the most observant person in the world either (hey, she is a cop so...).

    Fargo

    Truly. Getting sick of seeing man ass on a regular basis. The only other time I've seen that actress is in 10 Cloverfield Lane. Didn't register as super hot until this.

    The Magicians

    Was the Fairie's "cost" having Margo lose her eye? It wasn't clear to me why she was suddenly wearing an eye patch. It does annoy me how the show jumps around quite a bit. People suddenly appearing in completely different locations for a scene.

    Homeland

    Which means this is the last season of Homeland I'll be watching. With Quinn gone and Clair Danes getting uglier every year, I say good riddance.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Serious question: could the U.S. alleviate it's heavy debt burden through external means? Asteroid mining is being laughed at in the politics thread, but could the U.S. exploit something external such as the moon or other off-planet resource?

    The Expanse

    Minor nick-pick, but anyone else notice the shots of Jupiter from Ganymede vary wildly? Sometimes Jupiter is huge other times it's fairly distant. The latter is accurate as, I believe, Ganymede is one of Jupiter's most outer satellites.

    Outcast

    Holy shit guys, we're only 2 episodes in.

    The Expanse

    If the series gets a long life, I think it will go down as a classic right up there with Star Trek, Babylon 5, and BSG.

    SEASON 3 STARTS TONIGHT.

    Rick and Morty

    Guess not. Nothing downloaded last night. The TV database Sonarr queries must have the wrong infoz.

    The Walking Dead

    The retard-speech of the garbage patch kids comes damn close. I can forgive the tiger because, hey, she's bad ass.

    Uhm, Sonarr is showing episode 2 airing tonight at 11:30..?

    The Magicians

    She did say something about having to "remember" how to act or some such. But, I agree, it's silly because if you don't give a shit then you're not going to give a shit. Anyway, them bringing back Alice's shade will be interesting. I assume they will attempt to reintegrate the shade into...

    The Expanse

    I especially love the southern accent.

    The Detour

    Yeah it became more outlandish and raunchy as the series progressed. I still get a good laugh here and there, but I was digging the Vacation-like vibe at the start of the series. Oh, and I LOVE Angie Tribeca. Love that shit. Totally looking forward to S3.

    The Walking Dead

    I agree, nothing happened for the most part. They should have done "Total War" for the second half of the season. As a non-comic book reader I was expecting some kind of conclusion to the Negan arc. Now it's going to drag out for another season.

    Buying Gold/Silver/Precious Metals

    The problem with silver is that you can amass a huge quantity so keeping it in your home can be problematic and risky. And from what I've read, putting it in a safe deposit box isn't a great idea either.

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

    You know, I really fucking hate asking questions on Stackoverlow / Stack Exchange sometimes. I ask what is, I think, a completely legit question and immediately get downvoted with no explanation why.

    Buying Gold/Silver/Precious Metals

    The argument for precious metals is that they have intrinsic value. Money has to be portable, durable, divisible, fungible, and rare. Chickens aren't that (not really). Currency today (which is not money!) has no underlying value. It truly is fake and the ONLY reason it's usable today is...

    Buying Gold/Silver/Precious Metals

    What are you talking about? You can mostly certainly buy gold/silver coins and bars and put them in your safe or wherever.

    Rick and Morty

    Holy fuck. And there was speculation it might've released back in December.

    Buying Gold/Silver/Precious Metals

    Watch this series: The fed has been printing money at a ridiculous rate for years now. The stock market is completely fake. So, for the people who dismiss investing in gold and silver (and I mean the physical asset, not futures or ETFs), I ask: what is your argument that hyper inflation...

    So has the new season official begun or was this some sort of April Fools prank?

    Into the Badlands

    It's a damn fun show. Surprised there's not more excitement in this thread. And, by the way, grimy Sunny doesn't even look like Daniel Wu. I thought it was a completely different actor at first.

    Into the Badlands

    Heh, looks like Sunny came upon the Great Trump Wall.

    The Magicians

    Got a little teary eyed at the scene with Quentin and alt-timeline Alice. I wonder if they can somehow bring her into their reality? Wow, I haven't seen deaf-acting-lady in ages. The "censoring" of the foul language is hilarious. It's like why even bother.
