    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The new guy is a little bland, the old guy looked weird. Like he had a lot of plastic surgery.

    Please don't theorize in the non-spoiler thread based on information you didn't get from the show.

    Yeah, it's possible. I just don't think it's the right move. We'll see.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I feel like my thoughts on Daenerys' return have been the same for years: It's so far out we can't say what happens. I think we've got another season/book to get through before she comes back and there's no telling what will happen before then. It's possible she spends the next season uniting...

    A FO movie would almost certainly suck.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Killing Tommen risks rolling the dice and having a decent king take his place. Not worth it IMO.

    I think something like this is very possible.

    Stannis is toast. He'll never make it south of Moat Cailin again.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's more complex than that. If Tommen dies there will be a power grab. The Lannisters won't be content with just giving the throne to the Tyrells, and the Tyrells won't be content with losing it. There's no governing body here that determines who is king and queen.

    I don't think it was a stint. It was an awakening. That ended when his mom had his wife jailed. And will probably resume this Sunday.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Gavin wtf are you talking about. If Tommen dies and Kevan or Tywin are around, you'd likely see Myrcella get put on the throne and Ollena Tyrel wouldn't have enough flex to stop it. But with Kevan/Tywin dead, you have to count on Myrcella, Cersei, Trystane or Jaime to outmaneuver the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It going like that would suck, yes, but in terms of getting Westeros to bend the knee I don't think it'll be as hard as you think 1. I think Daenarys' conquest will coincide with the white walkers breaching the wall. So instead of conquering she'll be saving. 2. We're only some ~16 years...

    Witcher 3

    I might give that a try. Getting a 20fps drop so I can zoom in on Geralt's hair is comical. And it doesn't even look good. It looks like someone has a fan blowing on him at all times.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Evolutionary time scale yes, but on a human timescale that's still several generations of time which I think is more important when you're talking tech singularities. At this point I think we're debating semantics. I think for the term technological singularity to be applied to our...

    Gavin's words ring true. I'll let you off on a warning because you put it in a spoiler!

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'm only hoping they wrap up Jon, Trant and Cersei's storyline. I've lost hope for the siege of Winterfell or anything else.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I was going to quote the same paragraph as a reason why I disagree with your assertion that a technological singularity is an almost certainty that we are rapidly approaching. The key part of the technological singularity is that it's a moment in time where 'everything is different now'. I...

    Yeah I never pay attention to actor interviews for stuff.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I agree. I think this whole setup will be shown in the next season. I'm predicting next season's KL scenes are all about the Martells vs the Tyrells with Cleganebowl on the side. I don't think we'll get much of anything out of the Martells in the next episode besides maybe a small scene...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I disagree with that. I think once Cersei does the walk of shame they'll need something to fill the KL plot. Killing Tommen in the start/middle of the season then having a power struggle that somehow resolves with Myrcella on the throne (with or without a dead Margery/Trystane) puts things...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    The problem people like me have with the discussion of technological singularity is that we often see it declared inevitable by people who have no technological background, view it as an instantaneous change and relate every AI improvement to a fantasy version of the singularity. When you...

    Dark Souls 3

    I couldn't get through DS2 because I was so disappointed in the game environments. What made DS1 so enjoyable was getting through tough content and being rewarded with an amazing new world to explore. In DS2 I got to the spider queen and can't remember a single environment I thought was that...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think they will go to KL with intent on killing Tommen. I don't know how Ellaria and the Three Stooges will do anything but waste screentime but we'll see.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    So the Dorne plot has been a bit awash in how annoying the sand snakes and Ellaria are, but I was thinking about that plot line and have a few theories/ideas that may seem obvious to everyone: 1. Doran told Ellaria that he gives people second chances, but not third chances. His little sister...

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

    A downside to following that practice is often you'll see shit like, string outOfMemory_errorMessage = "Error: Out of Memory"; And it's used once in the code. In C++ what I find especially annoying is when it's a class member. So you declare the variable outOfMemory_errorMessage in the...

    Dark Souls1/2 isn't clunky in any way unless you load yourself down in weight or something.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    And I bet like most of the older actors there Sean Bean could give a shit about the overarching storyline. Note, I don't know if Sean Bean is a fan, I'm just surmising that he is based on what I hear of other actors in his generation.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Is that really that hard to do? I didn't hear of Sean Bean being an ornery person.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jon, Bran and Daenarys are the most plausible. Victarion/Euron are an option with their little horn, but unlikely because they aren't in the show. Tyrion is an option but probably won't happen just because he's not the warrior type, though he is more so in the books. There's really no...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I feel like the part exposing how all of Bobby B's bastards have dark hair but Cersei's kids are blonde make the point that dark hair is dominant in GoT like it is in RL. I don't think Lyanna's hair is described though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    fine fine. Do you know if they mentioned anything about the tower of joy in the show? Showdown at the Red Mountains - Game of Thrones Wiki doesn't really indicate it. It's such a cool piece of GoT history it'd be a shame if it isn't done in the show. It wouldn't even be a big budget thing...
