    People who might be interested. I was carrying the Fallout76 thread for a bit lol

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    The prime demographic for those types of shows are people who were kids or teenagers during a specific time period. They usually come out 2-3 decades after the era in question, just in time for the nostalgic target audience in question to be at their prime economic buying power (which...

    Nuke no. There’s no way you could detonate it close enough to literally smooth a surface. It would also irradiate the soil. Lasers would be too high an energy cost Your best bet would be sending robots that can prep a landing site

    Halo

    Because the Spartans in game and in books specialized in different roles and the power armor is still literally doing the heavy lifting

    That makes it realistic as well - a tank without infantry support can be destroyed fairly easily

    Watched the whole thing. After seeing the season, I suspect the real reason they took out the sexist Sokka subplot on Kyoshi Island is that it was too similar to the stuff Katara has to go through with the North Water Tribe and would have just felt like a rehash. They just reframed it during...

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    Chuk is actually correct. Disney was making a lot of money on those live actions until the recent string of bombs and bad press Think sports. If your coach wins the Super Bowl or World Series and then shits the bed the next year, they usually get a buffer year or two before they get booted if...

    The Mandalorian

    Ya places like Vancouver or Toronto were major production sites for years. Vancouver alone became sort of a science fiction/superhero/fantasy filming hub. Stargate, Battlestar, all the Arrowverse crap, etc

    The Mandalorian

    Tax credits for filming in your state is bait that states use in the hopes that it results in supporting industry springing up in the state. Movies aren't just actors - they need people in the trades (carpentry/electrical), catering, security, artists. Also, if the location they are in...

    I was on a high level evac mission - had entire team drop, then bots stopped spawning. Easiest finish and evac ever lol

    You need automation because of lag Mars is like 15 minutes lag, the moon is like 1 second or so You’ve played online games before - 1 second lag is an eternity when timing matters

    Helldivers II

    Fire weapons seem underwhelming. I’d like to see fire damage buffed vs terminids and electrical/emp buffed vs automations Rocket weapons also feel extremely situational and feel like they underperform vs the trade off for picking it as a support weapon

    Helldivers II

    Evac is too hard. The mobs all target the civilians and it is too easy to get to an irrecoverable overwhelmed state, which compounds the civilian killing issue even more in addition to your team getting killed Maybe mob spawns could be tied to number of successful evacs instead vs a time based...

    Been forever since I've seen the cartoon, but Katara helped him with learning water bending and Toph later helped with Earth bending. He learned fire bending last.

    I was reading more on it - the area the copter tried to land was relatively uniform in appearance. Essentially just a sand dune with virtually no rocks. It’s theorized that the landing sensors, with lack of surrounding context to better judge distance, misjudged the distance to the ground and...

    I wouldn’t be shocked if it was just voice work Even if they did show his face, it would probably just be a single scene and easier to fit into his schedule

    The final season was kind of odd - Syfy originally was going to give them a lot more episodes to wrap it up, then last minute the order got a massive cut and they had to rush everything in the span of a couple episodes

    Different scenario, though Landing on the boats and not tipping over is a pretty impressive challenge. However, the landing surface is ultimately flat (angled orientation due to the waves notwithstanding) The moon is covered with all sorts of shit like random rocks and boulders and mountains...

    Looks like it did tip over, but it tipped in a way so the useful stuff can still function https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-68388695

    Star Trek: Discovery

    The choice at the end of season 2 to completely change the setting was a good choice, but they sort of squandered the setting IMO. The whole concept of the Burn was dumb. What they should have done instead is doubled down on that TNG episode that had the plot point about traveling at high warp...

    Shield backpack is nice, but I like the guard rover for bug missions. The laser beam kills all the small bugs pretty fast (saving ammo) and you can kite shit with it since it keeps firing behind you even as you run and it is effectively infinite ammo.

    Orbital laser is awesome when the game is an asshole and spawns 2 bile titans, 8 bile spewers, and 8 chargers at once…then your teammates mortar frags you because a jumpy bug got close to you

    Looks like they did confirm it was on surface, but signal is weak. Might point to an alignment issue, hopefully it didn’t tip over

    The Boys

    They covered that a while back. Homelander found out about her role as “Homelander insurance” and got her to flip on her adoptive father when Homelander did his corporate coup. He gave her a vial of the super serum so she could use it on her daughter afterwards, but it is heavily implied that...

    I haven’t watched it yet, but one common complaint i heard is the 1st episode is very exposition heavy. I could see how that could be annoying to fans of the original show since it would effectively be a recap of shit they already know

    The Major Order is for the entire game population working collectively Reason it isn't completing quickly is the "evac the scientist" mission gets failed by shitloads of people, so it resets progress on the planets
