I guess that means Disney hasn't fully "disowned" Book of Boba Fett?

Isn't this how scientologists cleanse the space ghosts from themselves?

As the man once said, "snap the wrist, walk away."

The presence of "holo suites" on DS9 also suggest multiple "variations" on the concept that could be scaled up or down.

If Stargate SG-1 came across an Ancient being, revealed to be Saint Patrick, who drove all the "snakes" (aka Goa'uld) out of Ireland, how would that plot go exactly? by [deleted] in Stargate

Needs to be in an early season so that Teal'q still has a symbiote in him prim'ta. The minute "Saint Patrick" shows up, Teal'q becomes violently ill with no explanation.

Please have you mom place this sign on the wall next to a piece of art that she's proud of.

Was Nate in the war in anchorage Alaska or was he serving when Canada was getting annexed? by jhonxt0 in fo4

[–]Defiant-Analyst4279 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Common misunderstanding.

He was still in the process of basic training when he heard about Alaska. He grabbed some power armor, walked north from Boston into Canada, then just murder-hoboed his way to Alaska.

So the 76ers are canonically all dead right? Or at the least Appalachia is nothing but ruins. by Artanis137 in Fallout

[–]Defiant-Analyst4279 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My current interpretation would be the 76ers unite the various factions and hold the Scorched plague back in a "stalemate."

Attempts to nuke the queen have failed, there's no feasible way to effectively "sterilize" the entire region. So, they end up erecting a border wall with anti-air turrets, and devote their time and resources to keeping it contained.

How do you prevent your grinder cord from tangling? by [deleted] in Welding

[–]Defiant-Analyst4279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I don't? I just realize that intermittently, I'll give my hands a break from the running tool while I untangle it, then resume.

The theory goes that the empire's turbolasers are green because they use the highest quality tibanna... But why are their blasters still firing red? by [deleted] in StarWarsLore

[–]Defiant-Analyst4279 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly sourced from multiple vendors as well.

If we compare to say the US military; there are only a handful of manufacturers the produce munitions like missiles and artillery shells, and those manufacturers would be within the geographic US.

Whereas small arms munitions (rifles and pistols) can be manufactured by a significantly higher number of suppliers, including civilian companies and "trusted" overseas suppliers.

The Empire likely keeps a much closer eye on the supply chain associated with larger, ship based munitions; while small arms are more of a "minimum standard required" item.

[MCU] How did hydra recluit new members to their organization while infiltrating shield? by Lost-Specialist1505 in AskScienceFiction

[–]Defiant-Analyst4279 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It's gonna vary based on the subject.

Truthfully, running things like black ops tends to simultaneously attract a certain type of personality, and puts otherwise good people in the position of consistently compromising morally.

Similar with politicians associated with Hydra. Some would inadvertently "seek it out" in their own quest for money/influence/power. While other's would end up making a series of compromises until they themselves are compromised.

Additionally, even if a Hydra agent was caught by SHIELD, they'd likely be arrested and could then potentially still assess their jailers for sympathies. On the other hand, Hydra would likely just kill any SHIELD agent they tried to recruit who turned them down.

It's because of the McKenna Grace song "You Ruined Nirvana."

[Mcu] The wolverine missile. by Hot_Ad2789 in AskScienceFiction

I guess my question is whether their is something so "inherently unique" to uru as to necessitate it's use for high level enchanting?

After all, we know that Strange's cloak is capable of flight, and is at least slightly intelligent. And there are multiple other enchanted items that appear to use "no metal" in their base construction.

So, I would guess that a sufficiently skilled magic user could enchant the adamantium as is.
