    Hollywood is on Strike

    Yeah, and it's because for most of its history, people working in the game industry were looked down on as not real artists, or skilled individuals. Consequently, the bigger unions wrote them off.

    Hollywood is on Strike

    There are AI programs that can detect with fairly decent accuracy the probability that something was written by AI. As for the value of writing research papers, there is value in learning how to assemble, collate and present information. You don't need to be an advanced degree student to...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    I can't believe it took this long for that mold to appear in the "Tiny Gods" category. I feel like it was one of the first.

    Ahsoka - streaming on Disney+

    Most of the Star Wars helmets aren't practically usable (see the famous on-screen incident of the Stormtrooper hitting his head), they just look cool. I think we're supposed to assume there is some HUD or other computerized functionality that helps to offset the practical limitations. I also...

    Star Trek Lower Decks

    Uh... pretty bad. I mean, Mad Men didn't make stuff up - the scary part is the number of people that watch it and wish it was still that way.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    First and most importantly, I've preordered both Armorizers because I dig the idea and want to support them continuing to try new stuff. But I will admit I'm of two (or three) minds on them. On the one hand, I really want to see straight up Rock Lords revisited. I've always loved the idea of...

    Star Trek Lower Decks

    I don't know; anything named "Enterprise" has a pretty rough track record!

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Man... this whole time leading up to Thundertron being confirmed, I was thinking Thunder Clash. Ah well, peg-legged lions are cool too I guess.

    G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    That Helix looks very Cyberpunk/Mantis Blades.

    They're not mad, just very disappointed.

    That's just what the someone infected with the mind-control fungus would say.

    That's amazing! 🤣

    Ahsoka - streaming on Disney+

    I think in Rebels he may have only known her as Fulcrum - very few knew who that really was. As for the second point, all of those people know now, but Thrawn was gone before that came out. So there'd be no reason for him to look for that information specifically. Yep - it's been called his...

    Starfield: bethesda's newest offering.

    I found a side-docker so I could swap out the companionways for risers on the Night Mantis - makes it look a little less awkward and still seems to work against most opponents. And here's the Poison Dart. I doubt I'll keep it, but I am trying to make a smaller ship - ironically, this thing...

    Ahsoka - streaming on Disney+

    I imagine it's as much about putting two and two together. She left the order before the civil war and was thought to be dead. And iirc the only people alive that new who Vader once was at this point besides Ahsoka, were Vader himself and the Emperor.

    Southwest Airlines pilots are getting close as well. Although the RLA makes it a bit more complicated there.

    Pest Control Among Toy Collection

    Stop letting kids in? But seriously - what kind of pests? If it's roaches or waterbugs (big roaches), you can sprinkle Boric Acid (it's a white powder, sometimes sold under the label "Roach Proof", but you can buy just the basic stuff unbranded from pharmacies) around the bases of the walls...

    Starfield: bethesda's newest offering.

    My two main ships: Axolotl and Night Mantis The Mantis is my "algorithm exploit", which is supposed to make it harder for the AI to hit you in a space battle. But I'm kind of wondering if that's been patched out already as I just got my ass handed to me by a trio of Eclipse Bayonets who had...

    Star Trek Lower Decks

    Honestly, I was a little surprised by Freeman just winging it because she "took a semester back at the Academy". It seems out of character for her.
