marcos,

That thing is in TOS? I really thought it was another Expanse meme.

marcos,

It’s not exactly Mormons that you need here. Just to point out, but the bugs on that movie are completely unable to redirect a space rock in any way.

marcos,

They have almost zero space presence, they only attack the ships from the ground. The only thing they can do with space is sending eggs away. (And those asteroids weren’t knocked out of orbit, they were sent though hyperspace.)

Besides, the movie makes it pretty clear they just discovered they are in a war a few weeks prior.

(And now I’m wondering how the fuck do I remember that well a movie I’ve seen once, a long time ago… Is it actually good and I didn’t notice at the time?)

marcos,

Hum… Either the brain bugs that started being created weeks prior discovered some mechanism they have been using to bombard the Earth for decades… Or the military speakerheads and the news that lie about literally every single thing we see happening lied about something else.

That’s indeed a difficult choice.

marcos,

There’s probably opportunity to do some really large colliders in space, for much cheaper than on any celestial body.

But then, people are having a really hard time imagining the fucking science we could get done with a lunar-scale particle collider. That’s why the merely 100km one isn’t getting any money.

marcos,

Nah, if you go add the superheated, supercooled, amorphous, super-hight pressure, excited stuff and etc you can probably get there without even having to loose the definition of “matter”.

marcos,

Yes, it captures the essence of the animal perfectly right.

marcos,

It’s a very direct metaphor for what generals do.

marcos,

Well, loud-voice-only password entry is probably the best invention on all of those series.

marcos,

If KSP had an antimatter based engine, you’d get the same conclusion there too.

marcos,

Gotta stop pretending “left” and “right” are useful labels to apply to politics too.

marcos,

Tatooine is clearly an acient-Rome like place where slaves own property, so only Anakin would have brought C3PO, as parts.

And those 4 letter names couldn’t be very unique…

marcos,

If 20 years from now you meet somebody named Sandra with a completely different face, coming from a completely different place, would you guess it’s her after a plastic surgery?

marcos,

Is that a stock stock photo photo on the phone?

marcos,

There’s a lot of throwing random shit over that wall omitted.

marcos,

There are many kinds of damage, and being more fragile makes only one of them more likely.

(And yet, “fragile” is the wrong word there, because the problem is that it’s flexible, what’s the opposite of fragile.)

marcos,

I don’t give people grief for it.

They expect you to. The only way you can communicate that you don’t is by giving people grief for coming sick. That will force them to look at their environment and decide what to do, if you don’t, they’ll just pick the safe option that works everywhere.

It sucks, but it’s a required part of managing.

marcos,

Wait… That & shape manages to end on the exact same direction it starts.

marcos,

Just like any kind of mathematics ever.

You can also do it with numbers, because there’s a longer and proper way that arrives on the same conclusion.

marcos,

Orcas have declared war on yachts on some places.

marcos,

and remove any and all content that could be considered “offensive” by anyone

This is a thing of beauty! An absolutely perfect phrase. Congratulations to whoever coined it.
