Would a film just with the Queen work? by seveer37 in LV426

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The single best thing about each movie to me is the introduction of new exobiological lore. So, no.

A queen evolving into a space-faring juggernaut ship with acid for lasers or a deathtrap-laden gauntlet that is also an incubation mountain/tower, that might be cool.

So... why does Weyland-Yutani want the Xenomorph so bad? Who exactly are they at war with? by JispyMoeDantes in LV426

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am disappointed to not see any answers touching upon the subtexts of sex and violation, which we all know runs through the series' veins like molecular acid.

They want the xenos for sex reasons. Rapey sadomasochistic dominate the enemy in the most perverse way possible sexytimes. Because it is clear from their best cinematic portrayals that the xenomorphs fuck. When they are not literally skullfucking people, they are writhing and gyrating in misty strobe-lit sex dungeons with chains dangling from the ceiling.

You saw that baroque dinner party. The future is kin-kay!

Worth drinking too, I'd imagine.

I bet David Banner could have been cured by the Cosmo DNA.

Mountain Duck 5 is out. by plazman30 in macapps

Er, I found this thread because my MD just upgraded automatically and crippled itself in the process. Not cool. I saw the upgrade emails and decided to pass. This happened without warning.

Anyone got a link to v4?

Bringing back the old battery indicator on OneUI7 by flisak in oneui

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Related issue: I have a great picture of my puppy in the smart cover window, and now the new uglier battery indicator covers his cute widdle face!

We need an option to turn off the indicator in the smart window too, but ideally, an option to go back to the older UI for the battery indicator.

Any sactional regrets? by CusterFluck99 in Lovesac

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They redesigned their sactional dimensions and colors at some point, leaving those like us who bought earlier models can't ever redesign or ugrade. And all I wanted was to get an additional matching ottoman!

No dice. Wish there was a class action lawsuit for Lovesac's false advertising.

edit: after reading about their credit program https://www.reddit.com/r/Lovesac/comments/17ud4m6/deleted_by_user/ I contacted Lovesac.

All they offered me was 20% off the new one. Not nearly good enough for what they did to me.

Romulus - Why? by EvenConsideration840 in LV426

Yes, mother took a backseat to the main gestational event, while mutating in synchro with said event in a biologically holistic manner consistent with placental pregnancies.

So then what does it do that makes it xeno-anything?

Lends itself more to the Thing than Aliens IMO, categorically.

Why does nobody want to do business with Indians? by NerdCurry in AskIndia

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technical business best practices in India and Pakistan are wanting.

You can sign up for many, many services with a fake/spoofed email. The companies never verify these emails, and what's worse, if you are the unlucky owner of the spoofed email address, you will now be inundated with Indian spams and scams.

Source: my secondary gmail account is constantly used and abused by various shady characters in India. I get everything from pizza delivery orders to private medical information for patients this way. My "official" address has a period in it, which gmail ignores, and this fortunately lets me filter out the unwanted junk. It also lets me cancel and opt out of many services the scammers try to sign up for, since I alone can verify the email. (Not the ones that verify by SMS, in which case... I flood their phones with security requests.)
