    Sorry, I like the transporters are killing machines hypothesis, and only a crazy 4chan collage from Zapatta or Music4fish can convince me otherwise!

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's a scenario, the group ones are all shit, and, outside of the withered training and the mage towers, the solo ones suck too. Islands are the newest iteration of the scenario system. You need to collect a resource, with up to 5 people. The main point is to upgrade your neck, err cloak. The...

    8.3 looks like shit We have been listening to your feedback and heard that you loved island expeditions; so we are making more scenarios, but this time, you can solo them, or have a full group. It will be totally different because you will have to collect *patch 8.3 currency* instead of...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Hopefully, the writers that sold the idea, that this could be done, had been working on scripts for years as a passion project. Maybe the following seasons will be shorter, so they have time to write quality work. Amazon has shown that they are willing to wait years between seasons in The Man in...

    Oh, right, Robin Williams, I was trying to think of other stand up comedians in the league of those listed, but nothing came to mind... I even grew up watching most of his movies, plus some Mork & Mindy on Nick at Night, but I never think of him, getting his start and going big, doing the stand...

    A bit of a tangent here, but wouldn't salt, and even bird shot lead to possible trouble in court? Numerous sources I have seen, including my CC instructor, advocate unloading on any threat. You should not be firing on anyone not seen as an imminent threat to your safety (& property, in Texas)...

    According to Wood Reserve they age the whisky in a normal charred oak barrel for part of its life, then switch it too a "roasted" charred barrel to finish ageing. Double barrel whisky usually just means they mix the whisky together. Distillers dump all the whisky that matured that year (say...

    Cant wait for the next season, too bad it's going to be a long wait. I binged it over the weekend as well and will probably rewatch it sometime this week. The front wheels are the last wheels to touch the ground on all commercial jets. The landing gear of jets are a great engineering feat...

    Counterpart

    If you want to be an optimist, maybe it was picked up, by Amazon/Netflix/Hulu, and part of the deal was that the rights to the previous seasons come with it. Also, the guy, making all the decisions (COO Jeffrey Hirsch) did a more in depth interview with Hollywood Reporter. It mostly reiterated...

    After reading that article, it didn't sound like they had a problem with the female to male ratio in the show, but how many women their research showed, watched the show (nelson ratings, or whatever metric maker they use). The head of the network said that their target demographic is women...

    I does look good, so far. Although, I'll be waiting for everyones reaction when they remember that the show has to reconcile the retarded orcs from ST: Discovery with the Klingons from TNG.

    Black Mirror

    Black Mirror's underlying theme is that the misuse of fictional technology, sometimes based on current technology, can lead us to unforeseen terrible consequences. That episode failed in the fictional technology department, and thus, I didn't like it.

    I played BG 2 and then ToB long before playing BG 1, way back when, but I got the Big Metal Unit when I replayed it as BG TuTu. I think I read in a dev interview or forum post, somewhere, that it was just a running joke item across the first 2 games, and then someone decided, while making ToB...

    Many of these are to verify that it is a working number (which happens when you answer). Verified working numbers are worth much more than phone number dumps, when sold at lead generation sites. A number that was verified 6 hours ago is also worth more than one that was verified 6 days ago. What...

    While this is a little bit different, since you would get a box per day in Legion, they do have a history of fucking up or outright lying about how boxes worked across major patches in the past. I would do the same hording thing in Legion with the emissary boxes, and one patch they didn't have a...
