The moon is far away. Like really far away. They ISS is hard to get to, and the moon is 1000x farther away. So, just getting far enough to swoop around and come back is an achievement in its own right.
Also, it is part of a series of missions that will culminate in humans walking on the surface of the moon once again.
“Its easier to explain on the phone. Can you call me?”
“+”? What are they doing, crossing dicks?
Well, the free weekly games were a good time while they lasted. Guess we should get ready for them to all be revoked.
But what flowers do we let growth that will make money ?
Its simple economics. No matter how beneficial it is to the environment, people, or the economy, its bad for the economy to do anything without a direct profit motive
(god I hope the sarcasm was thick enough)
And so many people say its so much like 1 & 2.
I love Fallout 1 & 2. I cannot get behind New Vegas. I’ve played through the whole thing, and I’ve tried revisiting it a few times and I just don’t get the praise its given.
Fallout 3 and New Vegas both aren’t 1 & 2, but I prefer 3 over New Vegas.
To be fair, you can be surrounded by what, like 8 people at one time? So even if they got 1 good stab in each, guy #24 is on the third rotation if they’re being polite about it.
Now imagine being the 60th guy and Caesar’s been dead for 8 minutes already and you’re expected to shuffle through the crowd to find a yet unstabbed region to sink your knife to complete the agreement.
Yeah, the message is “pay this guy or he’ll kill you”. How is that not clear?
They have another name for criminals that lend you money and just ask you pay it back over time with some interest tacked on. They’re called banks.
The people in this thread are either misunderstanding you (thinking you have a big 8" slab of snow on your roof) or are unfamiliar with regularly snowy places, or are completely unhinged. That, or I misunderstand and you are talking about driving with inches of snow on your roof, in which case, yeah brush off what you can before driving.
But I get it, especially when it gets a bit warmer and the snow kinda melts a bit and gets icy and sticks.
The hot water will melt the snow and ice, don’t worry. The car wash deals with ice chunks from wheel wells all the time. Its just more water and road grime.
What’s worse is when you expect it, so you wait a second, and it still hasn’t loaded, so you click and the instant you click it shifts to an ad.
Reminds me of the TTRPG Shadowrun. Sometimes its hard to sell the corporate dystopia when you’re describing eating & drinking soy products because meat is prohibitively expensive and they can sell the effect of dubious cash crops like coffee and chocolate with a soy based alternative.
Ngl, digital tantric neural sex link seems pretty fuckin’ rad.
I guess they left out the part where it implants Taco Bell ads, mines your subconscious for thought crimes, and sells the data so people can have virtual sex with your likeness. Less rad.
Yeah.
Do you think systemic sexism is inherent and perpetuated without human compliance?
Its 2004 2026. They could quite literally have dynamic volume control that would adjust the volume based on a set limit. You could easily have lead-in curves based on the abruptness for smooth transitions.
When I first watched it for the ridiculous Sean Connery outfit I became quickly outraged that it’s not spoken of more highly in sci-fi film media. It’s got some really solid bones.
Only when the inverse is also true, if you’re allowed to live even when you can’t contribute.
Paid sick days? That’d cost the economy today. Who gives a shit about tomorrow?
It doesn’t need to be hot for the bacteria to be dead, just recently to have been hot.
Cool, that sounds exactly like how people want game companies to run. Just make a subscription based game, fire a bunch of people that actually made the product, and kill any innovative competition!
Doesn’t sound fucking deplorable at all.
Close another studio? Cancel some more games? That’s the best way to make more money, right? Lay everyone off and stop making products?
‘Senior Executice Finance Officer’ and other bullshit titles like that
