    I'm still trying to locate a sub myself. It may come down to using Youtube.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I still remember the series that pulled me into X-Men in the first place. I was a young that used to walk about a mile to the local 7-Eleven for a Slurpie, and one day they had a comic book. It captured my attention, so I purchased that book (my very first comic book). I read it and was...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    That was pretty good. Nice comic links. I don't understand the monster looking thing at the end, but I assume that's the "real" thing hidden in that box. I just don't know what it is.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I understand that, but while he's in the matrix world, he doesn't remember the real world at all. So from his point of view, that world is the real world. He knows that it's fake, but he really loves the life that he has with his daughter in the fakeness, so when Daisy said that his daughter...

    If someone's wearing sweat pants, it's not exactly a downgrade if that person were wearing shorts instead.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I wonder if Mack is going to end up leaving the matrix eventually, on his own? I can understand how he's locked in there and doesn't really "remember" an outside world, so it's all a mystery. So who knows. Maybe if the daughter gets a real skin duplicate IRL, that'll pull him over? They're...

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

    So in this line of work, what do you guys typically wear? Is it business casual? Like a polo shirt with jeans? Is it a little more formal? Are there any places that allow t-shirt and shorts if that's your thing? I'm just wondering the dress attire now that @alavaz mentioned it.

    Writers Strike and Unions

    Heroes was a fucking great show. The writers strike hurt it bad. They did a last attempt when the strike was over with season 5, but the damage had already been done. Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.

    That comic was definitely over my head, but I was still able to follow the majority of it, even if on the most basic of levels. What ultimately got me at the end was the log stuff. I've never dealt with logs before. I know they exist as a math term, but I've never learned how to use them...

    What made you leave that job, then? And those of you that work 40 hour weeks (doing overtime as needed), what do you do? What would be a good starting point for someone looking to start a job like that? I literally have zero background. No college. Blank slate, and all that.

    My biggest issue is family. My wife has a good job, and I actually want to have time for my daughter (and Son who is due in August). Working somewhere 10+ hours a day would greatly impede my ability to be there for the family. Not to mention, I would be unhappy. Hell, maybe I can try...

    So... I've never had a job in computers. Yes, they are present in virtually every job, but never "in" them, if that makes sense. I'm now contemplating a new career, and I have no idea where to even start. What is a strong launch point to focus on? I really enjoy doing everything on...

    Very interesting thread. Thanks for the news. So, Scream, have you worked on any shows that the board follows? No names, just curiosity. And do you then read the threads about said show, and write down possible ideas for the future? That would be cool if it were true.

    Oh man, Axe is so fucked. I'm not sure how to spin this any other way. They have all the players on camera. Even Lara's brothers... He's going to get eviscerated. The way this episode played out, it had a real "The Sting" vibe to it.

    I just re-watched ALL of the original DanMachi, including the 13th "hot spring" episode. God damn was that a good series. It really goes to show just how much this 2nd season Gaiden bullshit has missed the mark.

    I didn't play the game, so I can't confirm or deny that. But they set the series up with a very vague "to be continued..." style.

    I really enjoyed Tales of Zestiria the X as a whole. The final episode was a bit lackluster, however. But the overall story was great. Beautiful animation to boot. The CGI was all top notch.

    The latest Aiz episode didn't really do anything for me. I kept hoping for a finale of Aiz watching Bell beat that monkey thing as his first real boss fight, but no such luck. Instead we get the useless magic bitch giving some plants a little frostbite. Dumb.

    It should have existed in the world of Winter Soldier without taking a huge break. Just make one of the last episodes Nick Fury in a chopper before Hydra takes over instead of what they really made happen. But realistically, the first season wasn't great. Bad Guy of the Week isn't a strong...

    Decent enough Tsuki episode. I really like that part of Kyoto. I've been there twice now, and it's just a gorgeous area. Anywho, it looks like they're both finally done being stubborn, but maybe there's still some more lame shit left, but the series could progress well from this point on. I...

    Every Tuesday in Honolulu is $6 movie day, all day long for any movie at the local theater chain (Consolidated). They upcharge ($10) for their version of imax and for "adult only" theaters that serve alcohol. It's a great price. They also sell $2 popcorn on Tuesday.
