    Yeah, everything is so shitty I'm closing my box until the Resurrection event. Will buy a few things digitally if I don't just start torrenting or something. I want to support my local shop, but just don't care enough about the product to go through the motions anymore and spend the...

    Saturn's polar hexagon changed color. Scientists are investigating potential causes for the change in color of the region inside the north-polar hexagon on Saturn. The color change is thought to be an effect of Saturn's seasons. In particular, the change from a bluish color to a more golden hue...

    For receivers I usually end up just stalking slickdeals for the couple of brands I'm watching out for and make an impulse buy based on how good the deal is and how it matches up w/ my needs.

    One of the cool things about Lowes and similar stores is their standardized layout probably makes it a lot easier for them to build interesting experiences. See a AR demo of how to do something, then it can guide you through the store to pick up all the parts for the project, pitch you others...

    They're doing the same thing w/ Civil War that happened with Secret War, post Civil War books are already out and have to just vague up the end of Civil War 2 so they don't spoil it.

    And now X-Men blue and gold. They really seem to be bringing everything back from before they started doing stupid shit with Inhumans.

    They've got telemetry for the ExoMars lander from the craft they successfully put into orbit: The data have been partially analysed and confirm that the entry and descent stages occurred as expected, with events diverging from what was expected after the ejection of the back heat shield and...

    Hugh Jackman: Logan

    They'll be able to use the same song to show fan reaction as they leave the theater. So looks like Reavers replace Hulklings and Xavier replacing Hawkeye in a simplified Old Man Logan story.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    $299 w/ dock IMO, $350, tops. Not getting a tablet out of this, getting a small LCD taped to a brick playing cartridge games with inexpensive controllers. A lot less moving parts.

    It's the day for shitty space news. NASA's Juno spacecraft went into safe mode last night Juno went into safe mode at closest approach, already they're talking about being stuck in the 53 day orbit rather than the 14 they were going to park in.

    Orbiter emerged from behind Mars, that's looking good. Nothing yet from the lander, they've received a more detailed set of data on the descent from Mars Express but it's being processed still. Edit: Mars Express data inconclusive :(

    I'm not a fan of their approach with this one. Traditional head shield + fairing + parachute entry, followed by powered descent w/ ~9 rockets... then just before it gets to the surface it cuts all the rockets and 'crashes' into the surface, with a part of the spacecraft designed to crumple on...

    ESA lander is on Mars. Signal detected throughout the descent but nothing since landing/impact. Orbiters may be able to relay a signal in the next 45-90 minutes but people seem to be preparing for bad news.

    Biggest video game surprise?

    Rocket League is probably my biggest surprise since the original Tribes. I hate PVP in games, I suck bad at them, and while that hasn't changed I've got over 250 hours in Rocket League.

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

    So here we are, as a species doing our science thing, seeing how big we think the observable universe is, and we think it has about 200 billion galaxies in it ... and then one day we realize that figure should have another 0 at the end.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    More or less, yeah. Demons using rifts impact more than just the usual haunts, broken through to other realities, heroes rising up to repel them. Expansion pitting the Zerg against the forces of hell causing us to ally with a resurgent Diablo to preserve the natural order of things, etc...

    Mark Davis confirmed their plan is to play in Oakland 2 more seasons (they have 1 year options at the Coliseum) while the Las Vegas stadium is built. At one point there was talk about trying to play a preseason game in Vegas each of those years at Sam Boyd but we'll see if there's anything to...

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    If there's some good sources on Kodi/Exodus I'll probably give it another go as I play WoW or something. Beyond the introductions and some of the set pieces it was bad, but really enjoyed that first quarter and a few bits here and there. I don't think the EC will get me to like the Enchantress...
