    Dune (2020)

    Good lord he actually kept going after that obscenity of an ending? How the fuck did he keep getting up in the morning? I just assumed he had drowned himself in pills and alcohol which failed to deaden the shame of destroying the greatest sci fi stories of all time so he finally offed himself.

    The article I linked is a shitty pop sci thing I agree, but the first sentence had a link to the study itself, thats where the good stuff was. I agree with what youre saying though. The increase is not in North America. Still, it does very effectively debunk the colony collapse narrative...

    On today's episode of "everything you've been told is a lie", we learn that the Bee Collapse isnt a thing and never was. There are more bees than ever, no decline at all. https://www.science20.com/hank_campbell/honeybees_have_increased_85_in_the_last_60_years-255678 Is anything reported by the...

    Here's a nice iron collar you have to wear around your neck at all times. If we find you not wearing it, you won't be able to access your own information or money. But why would you object? It doesnt transmit any data to our servers, so theres obviously no reason to object

    The fact that so many willingly accepted this slavery to their devices and said "sure sign me up for 2FA!!" makes me sincerely wish for an extinction level event. No, I dont have my fucking phone on me. No goddam idea where it is at the moment. Thats the normal state of things. Any...

    I feed a family of 5 on our eggs. I think our feed costs and egg costs break even more or less. Its not about saving money, its about quality and independence. A homegrown egg is as different from those garbage supermarket eggs as a homegrown vine ripened tomato is from those garbage plastic...

    What If...?

    Frustrating that they didnt even hint at how the events of the episode would lead that to happen. I mean, a person could dream up some scenario but the argument isnt even hinted at. First time I've wished for a part 2.

    The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021)

    Yeah, theres been so much outrage here about this. *crickets* Its almost like the raceswapping fetishists deliberately pretend not to hear the actual objections and just say la la la racism I cant hear you la la la. Good lord man, literally the only reason anyone produces Shakespeare in 2021...

    Good lord man that sounds like a lot of work. Our chicken run is just chicken wire on a wood frame. No wooden roof needed, its covered with chicken wire on top. We do put a shade cloth on top, for shade. The chicken house I built is about 8x8, raised off the ground. That made a big difference...

    Nothing past s1 was watchable. This getting renewed is pure woke politics. If I'm being honest though what I really mean was the early part of S2 was unwatchable cause Im not that much of a masochist. Throw decades of my life away chasing unimportant academic bullshit for very little pay...

    Didnt watch the videos because theyre videos and all information worth knowing is written down. But microplastics are bullshit. The tests for microplastics are so sensitive now that you can literally detect microplastics in everything. Fucking *everything*. No evidence theyre actually causing...

    this is a dumb take. do you also lack the ability to visualize characters based on text? follow up question, do you have an internal dialogue?

    What a wasted episode. Didnt watch black panther, so why would I give a shit if it went differently (and I know, this was also Iron Man but it was all about this dreadlocked idiot). Only saving grace is the anthology nature of this show, so the next episode after a shitty one could still be...

    Moonfall (2022)

    It seems like you're dismissing how it went in Seveneves without discussing it. Did you read it? Obviously we're talking sci fi here not science, its not like it was an authoritative study or something. But the model in Seveneves included two factors you're not including in this discussion 1...

    Moonfall (2022)

    I believe that was the scenario in Seveneves - I think they talked about complete sterilization of the planet. But the ocean did remain as a liquid so it seems like at least marine microbes would survive. Animal life seems less likely.

    The Prepper Thread

    Looking into a manual switch to connect a generator to our pump. Like most (all?) its hard wired to a 220V circuit in the pumphouse, so if the SHTF for long enough we need to fire up the pump, I'd have to work with wires. Which is fine except these things usually happen in the middle of the...

    Lived on a goat farm as a child. From what I remember they spend more time outside their fences than in. These pigs, my kids accidentally left the gate open the other day so they escaped. But they only went about 10 feet, and came running as soon as they saw us, ran right back into the pen...

    After raising chickens and gardens for many years we decided to move up to the next level. We're fencing an acre of pasture and raising some Idaho Pasture Pigs. Currently we're keeping them in the remains of the garden while we have the fence built. I underestimated how cute the little fuckers...

    Loki

    I think youre being too critical of the love story plot. If he's doing everything for himself how is he a simp? I think its got more depth and humor to it than you're giving it credit for. The show painted a tragic story of Loki's life. Always the betrayer and as a result forever alone, and...

    Saw the trailer on TV last night. I was pleasantly surprised by parts. While Lan's casting remains odd, he looked better in action. Moraine looks good. But goddam, the fugly black chick is just so jarring. Ghetto Starfire jarring. Not sure who thats supposed to be, and doesnt really matter...

    Moonfall (2022)

    absolutely better as a series than a movie. because theres no way theyre gonna make the garbage second part into something watchable. And as a series, we'd be able to wisely stop watching as soon as they reach the time jump. with my luck they'll make the movie entirely about the second part and...
