When I first saw Deadmau5 the first thing I thought of was a comedy show starring Johnny Vegas in which one (silent)character called Cartoon Head wears a mouse head throughout. Then I thought of Mickey only because he's a cartoon mouse as well.

And that'll be their excuse when they come back long after dark:

"Where the hell have you been?!"

"Imaging Earth."

"Until this time of night? I was worried sick!"

"We were curious."

They thought they were escape capsules. So they did.

Ukraine already has a used nuke on its soil, it's called Chernobyl. Understandably, they don't want another one.

Yeah, but her sister was worse.

The fact that you recognised both sci-fi references is also of note.

I find that the more we learn about Saturn's rings (and is thus applicable to all planets with rings and shepherd moons) the greater the fascination that such structures aren't just a bunch of small rocks orbiting a planet but have behaviour that is of interest to chaos and complexity mathematicians that can only lead to greater understanding of the dynamics of such systems.

(Is this the kind of comment you were hoping for?)

Microsoft Ireland (which owns the servers the data is stored on) is headquartered and incorporated in Ireland and thus subject to Ireland's laws. QE fucking D back at you.

If you think possession of child pornography is legal in Ireland then I've got a bridge for you to buy. I'll make you buy it twice for bringing in a "think of the children" flawed argument in a ridiculous attempt to bolster your position.

Complete with troopers. You don't want to fall in love with one of them...

As distinct from the usual rocks inaction.

I'll get me coat...

Maybe something wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey about insects not living very long in the first place so there's no point using all that energy sending them back in time to live to death. Or it's a sentience thing.

Either way, I most certainly can kill a stone. I can smash it to bits with a hammer. Maybe even a *rock* hammer. I don't see anything coming back to life after it has been shattered into tiny pieces apart from a T1000 / Crichton and Aeryn.

While there were at least 12 Zathrases, all were played by Tim Choate...

The CGI was groundbreaking and a great deal more than just "backdrops". Every ship, planet, piece of debris, weapons fire as well as the interior of various parts of the station was made on *Amigas* with zero model shots. When they had enough money for a small render farm they could create large space battles in real time.

They kept the details secret even though big names like ILM and Paramount wanted to know how the hell they did it with so little equipment and a shoestring budget (we didn't see the battle of Wolf 359, only the aftermath and even that was a few years later because it was too expensive to make). They released old methods to the big studios on a seasonal basis: Mars Attacks used Season 2 quality, ST:Voyager used Season 4.

Yes, the effects look dated. Because they are. But no one else could do what they did 20 years ago.

There are at least 280,000 people who would think you're full of shit. This minimum number is confirmed in TFA.

Microsoft supports 64 dimensions in VB(Script) arrays, which should be enough for anybody.
