Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is doing a fine job.

Elk decennium probeert iemand een vliegende auto te lanceren (pun not intended) en elk decennium is het een scheet in een fles. (hm, blijkbaar geen kandidaten in de jaren '90!) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_...

I would love a direct TV adaptation of Moonraker. Period correct to the novel, Bentley and all.

Anyone else ever so slightly bothered by the screenshots being from a different episode than the quote

Wait that's just the Gilbert & Sullivan scene from Insurrection

Carpool karaoke, but the car is a shuttlepod.

Found it!

What are the titles?

This stretches the definition of open world, it takes a bit of effort to get started, and you need to be into orbital mechanics, but Kerbal Space Program (the original) gives you a pile of rocket parts and a solar system to explore. You can plant flags, but they're for photo ops.

Was there art of a blue deflector'd Sovereign? I distinctly remember having a bookmark around ST:FC showing the E with a glowing blue deflector but can't find anything online

Started KCD2 on a hunch and thoroughly impressed so far. Definitely feels like a labour of love.

I remember that review! Worth getting blacklisted over.

Who knew Robocop was a prophecy.

Genuinely good episode though. Effects were a bit wonky, but the story worked.

Regarding Tintin: Hergé did actually realize just how bad his early work was and made a conscious effort to be better.

@laratlarian.bsky.social is probably pretty good at it

You really want to spend you dying moments holding open a door waiting for a ball of fur to finish what looks like a deep contemplation on the meaning of life?

Forever baffled by people who look at the oldest way to experience a story, by several thousands of years, and go "no, that one doesn't count".

I just don't understand how you can take actual history and then cut out all the real, historical drama. They had Washington playing Macrinus! That's a movie in itself! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrinus

I do not understand why anyone would get near that ship without some *very* clear answers about what happened to Eleos I through XI.

As if Jesus would wear one of those new-fangled northern barbarian pants. Next thing you'll tell me had shirts with sleeves and *shudder* boots.

DS9 had both in consecutive episodes, so I guess it's an option rather than ships having one or the other. Bubbles to keep 100% of the energy out at a higher power cost, skintight for longer endurance at the expense of higher chance of damage when they get low?

And spare a thought for all the writers of speculative fiction that could have had a future this profoundly stupid but figured it wouldn't be believable
comment in response to post
There is a lot happening in a short time and most of it is bad. Humans aren't meant to deal with that torrent of BIG BAD NEWS. Feeling overwhelmed and, yes, as if it is apocalyptic is normal - you'd be weird to think otherwise. There's no shame in focusing on something else for a while.

I thought I smelled something. Glad to see AI slop still stands out.

It's the sort of word you ban if you envisage a world in which there is no more need to discuss the leadership of the nation.

worth it
comment in response to post
I very occasionally come across that word in its technical context - photography, ignition timings - and it really feels weird. Evolving language is a mindfuck at times.

Rooting for Canada is, in a way, rooting for the US. The US from two weeks ago, that still had allies and functional international relations, the one we'd all like to see come back. Just a massive shame that so many people will be hurt from Canada doing what is unquestionably the right thing.

Why wait. The French didn't.

Earned its reputation, earned its Emmy. It was a godawful idea that nearly made it thanks to the talent implementing but I just can't look past how little sense it makes even in its own context

Well, technically Kira did too, and it arguably played far more into her character

I think he's the only one that had his own command before. Shame they pretty much ran his character on autopilot, the mixing crews setup could have been so much more interesting

"Another member of the background ships in the Rag-Tag Fleet. This ship also never received a name during the show, so the name was derived from its distinctive shape. Originally built by Andrew Probert for the pilot episode"

youtu.be/C3E358n7pcI?... It's a mood trailer rather than a gameplay one, but what a mood.

No, I think Titor was looking for an IBM 5100.

Star Trek's proud tradition of reused random background ships continues. The spirit of the Batris studio model lives on :-D

Gender: fluid, is that something?

The AI doesn't think so.

So what do S31, Nemesis and Into Darkness have in common? Deliberate, cynical bleakness. The antithesis to Star Trek.
comment in response to post
Pretty terrifying post until the context clicks.
