Turned out it was a movie for 13 to 16 year olds dragging their parents into a cinema.
And yet you'd never heard of the Transformers before you saw the Michael Bay movies. I guess you were 11 or 12 at the time?
Was anyone ever invested in Supergirl though?
I'm told she's had some well-liked stories.
Still, James Gunn seems to have this obsession with pulling up C-list characters from the comics and putting them in central roles in movies. For a lot of the running length of Superman, it was a movie about some guy named Mr. Terrific that nobody's ever heard of. I assume this is because he wants to tell new stories, rather than rehashing the same old origins and motives for characters that everybody's known about for years. But it's not the same as actually introducing new, appealing ideas; these characters are C-listers for a reason. Nobody cares.
She fights this evil character multiple times and could take the antidote at any point. Of course, she doesn’t because that’d be the end of the movie.
Haven't seen the movie, but I've heard it's not just that
Two words: Government contracts.
Sounds like the precise argument why governments shouldn't be the ones regulating these things. Maybe private industry consortiums
"These things"? You mean the government shouldn't be drafting regulations for government, which is what we're talking about here? Instead, private industry should be telling the government what to do?
No, but HPE is. HPE does not sell printer ink.
Failing that, stroke something else.
Hmm. Just from my own bullshit experience, if you find yourself in an empty room, you probably look to the right and then, naturally, you're moving counterclockwise.
It makes sense that a long-lived species would take longer to develop
So then what is the point of Yoda being immensely old? Is he basically 63 in Yoda years?
I really wish that Git had stayed as a stand-alone free service for Linux developers.
It did. The authoritative upstream repository for the Linux kernel is hosted at kernel.org, not GitHub.
How can this be seen as a victory?
The "victory" is literally "pwning the libs." The thought process is, "Anything that denies them something that they want makes them weaker and us stronger." The base rallies and cheers, and meanwhile Trump and his cronies go back to extracting ungodly amounts of wealth from the entire world's resources.
If they leave them there, the next administration might be able to switch them back on and start gathering woke climate science data again.
Kinda unlikely. If you leave anything sitting under the ocean, it's going to experience significant wear and tear. If there's no budget even to monitor the status of the monitors, let alone conduct routine maintenance, they're likely to be as good as junk by the time they're switched back on.
Literally hundreds of scientific papers have been published using data from the OOI
Not to mention that the data is also used in industry, particularly in farming and fishing, where it is used to predict climate-related events. And this aren't just long-term events we're talking about. "Where are the fish likely to be this year" is a question this data can help answer.
What? I have one. It's hooked up (through an adapter) to the VoIP port on my fiber router. It rings and everything.
Grogu is already 50 years old so that might explain his powers.
Yeah? So how come he never speaks and has the language comprehension of a 3-year-old?
