Darth Vader was played normally, Blackulous would need to be played in the same vein as Shaft, or other Blacksploitation movies, to have full impact. There is actually a Silver Surfer Black in comics, so I guess he could 70's cheese it up, but it would lose the great name of Blackulous. It is...

Sorry, it's most likely the past, otherwise he wouldn't be able to go back to the future, next season...

Lady Loki put the wrong year into the flux capacitor and sent him back to before the 1900 to 2099 time window that they hunt 99% of the Loki, obviously. The Kang statue was during his first iteration of the TVA, before the great mind wipe of the second Triumvirate Timekeepers...

I demand Blackactus and the Obsidian Surfer!

Maybe I will give it another shot after I get done with Clarkson's Farm. It has great ratings and I usually love space shows, so I want to like it.

Some years back I read an article (or maybe it was a TED talk or the new Cosmos show) about rocket alternatives to put things in orbit (I just tried to find it, with no luck). From what I recall, in order to reach orbit, through cannon or rail gun, it would require acceleration so fast that the...

I guess I chose the wrong words, I was thinking more along the lines of it is the only alternative I have seen to rocket power that may work and have all of its (many) problems resolved within the next 100 years.

The vast majority of technology is iterative, not revolutionary, so ten years doesn't seem like that much time for an "amazing" technology, something the likes of no experts can currently think of, but sure, maybe. If I were a betting man, I would say that it is far more likely to happen in the...

Sure, I like science fiction, and trying to picture future technology is neat, but there are some things that are more probable than others. Flying into space like your taking off and landing an airplane may be achievable, but it wont be an airplane (using a wing to provide lift to increase...

I haven't watched the farm yet, but I tend to agree. Here he is narrating the St. Nazaire raid (just watched this a week or so ago and it was pretty good):

Escape velocity is a bitch and no wing will even get you close. AFAIK, the only alternatives on the horizon are space elevator type things, where we use the rockets to get other modes of transport into orbit and functional.

I watched the first two episodes of For All Mankind and found it uninteresting. It was just close enough to history to be annoying. Also, don't much care for Joel Kinnaman, so that didn't help (I liked season 1 of Altered Carbon in spite of him).

Bunch of Johnny come latelies. One of the greatest directors of all time already made the Asian Hamlet, and Asian King Lear, and Asian MacBeth... Hamlet: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054460/ King Lear: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089881/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_4 MacBeth...

That's unfortunate, I didn't have any issues with the old mod and the GoG edition of MoM.

Slitherine bought Master of Magic about 8 to 9 months ago and employed some modder (didn't even know there was a mod for it) to continue and expand on the mod (the Caster of Magic mod (that they would release on steam:emoji_nose:. I think they (Slitherine) said they are going to take a stab at a true...

Distant Worlds and Dominions 3 are great, and I have easily spent 100+ hours in both (Dom3 mods probably took it to 500+ hours). I don't know how old "relatively newer" is though. So, Dominions 5 is probably as good as Dom 3, with some improved mechanics, and it came out in 2017 (for a newer...

After reading the last few pages, I'm going to have to go find my Warcraft 3 CD, install a DVD drive into my computer, and play through the original Arthas and Illiden story in order to wash off this stench of modern WoW lore.

As someone who has never read a marvel comic, all the other Loki characters meant nothing and the episode was rather dull. The smoke monster looked better than Lost though, so it has that going for it.

The beginning was looking good, but the second half was mediocre and turned into one of the worst episodes, in terms of laughs. They can't all be zingers though, and after last week, they can shit out a few bombs, and still round out a great season.

See if your uncle can use the dealership's Manheim account from home and, if so, ask if you can come over and do some research on his computer. They have an MMR tool that you can start plugging in different cars, and get the going dealer auction rate over the last ~6 months (and many more...

That's a vehicle fight and there are plenty of the them in WoW. Vehicle fights suck, fuck you.

Sometimes there isn't anything you can do but laugh at stupid people (as long as they aren't hurting others). Is this guy a customer or a coworker? You could be more direct with a co-worked, about such things, but with a customer its basically agree and move on (so you don't slip and unleash...

Neat. I would assume, it's probably a reproduction (or a back up not used in filming) to be just hanging out there, and not under lock and key. Even though I don't like alcohol, I would probably still go look at it, if I was in the area.

I was going for the iconic characters, not the actors. Andy Serkis played a villain with a British accent? I guess McDiamrid playing Papls in the prequels had a accent, but I have a hard time hearing it when he becomes Emp. Never seen Mark Strong in any iconic villain roll. Hannibal Lector did...

Ah right, the character was from England, but dropped the accent. I was having a hard time thinking of a good bad guy, in an American production, with a British accent (since the other 2 were entirely UK productions). My first thought as a third pick, was Richard Roper (The Night Manager), but...

A British accent sounds fancy to the American ear. We hear it and automatically think they are high society. Bullet Tooth Tony: A right fancy motherfucker who also knows french Michael Peterson (Bronson): Probably the Queen's second cousin thrice removed Al Swearengen: An obvious man of...

I played it for a couple months, super casually, last year on the normal servers (paid for one month sub, felt like I got my monies worth). It was good enough for 80+ hours and it was better playing with a friend. We got to Angmar (mid 40s & part of the base game) before he lost interest (after...

I'm not much into the screwball comedies, so I'm having a hard time thinking of any movies from before 1940, that I liked and would watch again. The 40s, on the other hand, have a decent amount of good movies that I have seen numerous times. Including: Sergeant York The Pride of the Yankees...

That is not necessarily the case. There is no unified theory of physics and a whole slew of unknown physics could be happening behind the event horizon of a black hole. Conservation of information is a law and hawking radiation is widely accepted, leading to the black hole information paradox...

Negative, the name on the lease was a dead relative of the person that was evicted. One article said it was a rent to own situation with the original person who died. Decent chance at different last name. That article on CO evictions doesn't say if the LEOs run IDs on evictions. Obl. Video:

I mean, sure, they should have released her name at a minimum, if they even have it. This has gotten enough publicity in Colorado, that I would hope that the local law is looking for her. It looks as if there are numerous charges that they could file. I don't know what an eviction entails. Do...

Well that's kinda the thing with theoretical physics, and there are other videos that refer to the conservation of information, including the ones on black holes. Hawking radiation is supported, but since nothing beyond the event horizon is actually known, it does not necessarily mean the...

Afaik, in quantum physics, the energy is what keeps the information. With enough computing power, you can calculate how that energy (the particle that caries it) got to the state it is in. So the terms can be used interchangeably, for casual conversation. (Edit: after watching the video again...

I think I was able to find all the chapters he released. I really liked them and was hopeful things were on the right track. The Reek chapter, in particular, was a favorite. Of course this was way back around season five or six, before Dick and Dick Holster had finished shitting all over it. So...

Everyone is on their way to the retard rickshaw:

One trip around the sun has been calculated to take 612,190 years.

There is no swinging back around for Mass Effect. Bioware is dead; killed by EA long ago, and they have worn the corpse ever since.

...or Loki is the father of lies, and the broken time warp device was just an illusion. Also, what are Loki's powers as established in the franchise movies? I though he could teleport and turn invisible, making most of the episode seem silly. Small nitpick: The lack of projectile weapons...

Wow culture is this: The tank is the defacto group leader, so after the first month of the Xpac, it is generally seen as rude for a person to queue as a tank for level 60 content, if they have never been in the zone before. Everyone has a dps spec, and you are expected to queue as dps, until...
