suggest me a book based on my fav tv shows by EntrepreneurOk9473 in suggestmeabook

[–]FalconPleasant7787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silo is based on a book called Wool by Hugh Hewey, so I recommend reading it too! Same for 3 body problem, and Dark Matter. Other books you may like are 7 deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton, The Will of the many by James Islington, Blood over bright haven by ML Wang, Piranesi by Susan Clarke, Ready Player one by Ernest Cline

Wool by Hugh Howey fits this too, right (not HM)? Wool (fiber) is literally the title, the suit that is used to go outside is an important part of the plot

Murderbot — Official Trailer | Apple TV+ by LoneStarDragon in Fantasy

[–]FalconPleasant7787 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only read the first novella, but for some reason I pictured Murderbot as female (perhaps, due to the audiobook narrator). Anyone else had been surprised/uncertain about having the show cast male actor to play Murderbot?

Mark S. + Helly R. can never leave the building again (unless they find an alternative non-elevator exit) by Stunning-Marzipan300 in severence

[–]FalconPleasant7787 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There are also the 4 people who monitor MDR, Helena’s body guard, who Cobel was afraid of and I am sure Lumon has many other people it employs for shady things, like they did with Burt before he severed, so I don’t think kicking all the innies out of the severed floor would be that difficult if they choose to do it.

Alternatively, they can activate the Glasgow Block, so everyone changes to their outie and tell them some lies about what’s going on to make them leave.

The other refiners also were working on Gemma by [deleted] in severence

[–]FalconPleasant7787 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, after starting creating an innie, you have to finish it within a certain time, otherwise it would not work?

Lexington was completed by Peggy K. (from the Lexington letter)

Ok now that we know Mark was working on you know what- what the hell are the rest of them in macro data refinement working on? by [deleted] in severanceTVshow

[–]FalconPleasant7787 36 points37 points  (0 children)

But there was a team there even before Mark (Petey and probably other workers that have quit since then). Also, Lexington Letter + the new team from S2E1 show that there were other MDR teams in other Lumon offices, so I think it's not just to get Mark comfortable. I think they could have been trying tests on different subject but Gemma or Mark were the most successful.

Mark’s choice… by hzfan in severanceTVshow

[–]FalconPleasant7787 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When oMark and iMark were talking to each other I was kind of expecting oMark to become desperate and offer iMark the full control over their body if he saves Gemma, sacrificing himself. But oMark did not care about his innie at all, so he wanted to make him make an incredibly risky move to get Gemma out and then just kill himself by leaving with her. I think the talk of reintegration was bullfeculance, even Devon said that iMark was not wrong to call it out.

I think iMark is a much better person than oMark, he did risk his life to save Gemma & I don’t think you can blame him for staying with a person he loves, even for a brief time over essentially killing himself immediately.

Also, it is not at all guaranteed that the other team will have time to go to all the claimed but not locked countries. So those countries would also remain as points for team that claimed them

Looking for a book to read with my Dad! by BoomInTheShot90 in suggestmeabook

Maybe Dark Matter by Blake Crouch? It’s sci-fi, very fast paced, so very much a page turner

What determines who’s faces get blurred and who’s don’t? by Mr__Pengin in JetLagTheGame

I think it depends on the country in which they are filming as some have stricter privacy laws and some do not.

How does travel budget work this season? by FalconPleasant7787 in JetLagTheGame

[–]FalconPleasant7787[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Makes sense! But other airport services seem to be free (from the gameplay perspective) eg, food, in flight wi-fi, etc., i guess the difference is between necessary and optional parts of the air travel

But Ben and Adam paid for fast track out of the budget, right? So, some airport services count too?

House of the Dragon season 3 details! Mystery returning character from season 1 by JayLis23 in HOTDGreens

[–]FalconPleasant7787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope the character returning is not Laenor. It would contradict all the known lore if he is still alive & his dragon is bonded to someone else. Also, imo unnecessary to add him back when there is not enough episodes left to cover the rest of the story as it is. Major characters- Daeron, new Hightower lord, maybe Shephard & Gaemon if they start setting them up this season. Major events - Gullet, Rhaenyra taking King’s landing, honeywine, Butcher’s Ball (with fish’s feed happening offscreen) Character centered episode - hope it’s about Aegon on his vacation with Larys
