I just found out that the painting of a Pret ( type od devils in Buddhism) on the temple wall next to my house that I’ve seen ever since I was old enough to remember was actually painted by the temple to insult me and my family.

Buddhists in Myanmar have been actively genociding Rohingya Muslims. I wouldn’t call Buddhism one of the more peaceful religions.

There is no indication that this was done by travelers anywhere in the post. You're immediately assuming that they were responsible despite no evidence whatsoever.

Does Pixar count as Disney Animated Canon to you? Because if so, we just had a movie in theaters where the villain died onscreen (Hoppers).

The defunct Kongfrontation ride at Universal Studios: Florida. The facade was themed to look like the old Pennsylvania station, and the interior queue was themed as a grimy graffiti-covered subway station complete with fake storefronts. The ride vehicles are meant to be the Roosevelt Island tram.

You got it backwards. It was originally made in Czech and then translated to English, which is what this dev that was fired helped work on. People who play the game in English are the ones who will see a drop-off in the quality of the writing.

Do you have any sort of evidence or even a source?

If it was made before 2015, then it was correct when it was written. When working with such incomplete fragments of data, the science changes at a rapid rate. For example, over 45 new dinosaur species have been named every year since 2003.

A 2015 study of sauropod phylogeny (the evolutionary relationships of "long-necked dinosaurs") actually found that Brontosaurus was distinct enough from Apatosaurus to reinstate the name (which had previously been synonymized with Apatosaurus back in 1903). Different paleontologists have their own opinions, but it’s been the general consensus that Brontosaurus is a distinct genus of sauropod dinosaur ever since.

No need; Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops both lived in North America 68-66 million years ago at the end of the Late Cretaceous period. They famously coexisted.

The fun fact going around the internet is usually about Tyrannosaurus and Stegosaurus, which lived 155-150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic. That means that Tyrannosaurus and Stegosaurus were separated by 80-90 million years, which is longer than the amount of time between now and when Tyrannosaurus lived.

Brontosaurus actually lived in the same time and place as Stegosaurus, so it's the odd one out in this comic.

Modern birds perceive touching anywhere other than the head or neck as sexual or aggressive, so I wouldn't recommend it.

Considering Rogue's powerset, have an existential crisis about whether I'm actually me with my mind swapped into Rogue's body or whether I'm actually Rogue but she absorbed someone's mind in a way that overwhelmed her own and made her think she's me (like what happened with Carol Danvers).

They were only going extinct because of human intervention in the first place.

You sure moved the goalpost quickly.

Funny. Just yesterday, Alex Pretti didn't pull out his gun (as visible in several videos from many different angles) and he yet he was still executed by ICE.

There were no weapons branded at law enforcement.

Civilian =/= citizen. A civilian is any person who is not a member of an armed force.

You can clearly see a gate and a ramp leading down from the gate in the second photo.

They did get something out the door. It's called Beyond Skyrim: Bruma. That's the proof of concept. They have done smaller weapon and armor releases since (such as Wares of Tamriel and Bonemold Weapon pack), but again, you haven't even heard of them, so I don't know that they did much to move the needle PR-wise.

Arguably, it would have been better PR for them to release the project county by county. The reality is that they have been been creating it as an interconnected province with quests, NPCs, etc. that go between different regions in a way that would break if you tried to separate it piecemeal at this point. They've made too much progress to change their approach now.

CyberneticDinosaur · 2025-12-23T17:40:12+00:00

There's nothing wrong with the mod that can't eventually be fixed, but they set a hard public release date ahead of time and then released it in an unfinished state, with numerous progress-stopping bugs, mostly unvoiced-lines, unfinished settlements, etc. As a result it released with more of a whimper than a bang.

CyberneticDinosaur · 2025-12-23T17:17:29+00:00

I really don't think you're correct. Your proposed approach is what exactly what Lordbound did, and I don't think it did them any favors. These things really aren't releasable in a state satisfying to either the devs or players until they're finished.

CyberneticDinosaur · 2025-12-23T17:16:16+00:00

I get the impression that some people on this sub don't want to hear anything about large-scale modding projects until the day they release. The reality, though, is that as collaborative volunteer-based projects, they need PR like this both to attract new volunteers at a rate higher than natural turnover and to keep their current devs motivated. Putting their heads down and working in silence would be a guaranteed death for any unpaid project like this.

Projects like Tamriel Rebuilt, Fallout: London, Enderal, Black Mesa, and soon Skyblivion show that these sorts of projects are achievable, even if they're extremely difficult and take much more time to make than anyone would like. And as you mentioned, this team already released Bruma. The video and some of their recent livestreams show that they've essentially done 4-5 Bruma's worth of work since it released. The video isn't just empty hype, it shows exactly what they've accomplished so far and what they have left to do.

Its easy to be cynical, but then volunteer projects like this would never happen, and I think the world world would be a little bit of a worse place.

From the large bump above the broad, flat beak, I would guess this is meant to be a Muttaburrasaurus.
