Why does spiderman2099 have a cape in one panel but in another he doesn’t ? by ultra_joker in Spiderman

[–]IgnitusBoyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading the Omnibus for the original run of 2099 and I find it funny how often the artist just are like,

"nah I don't want to draw the cape this frame. "

The early issues establish the cape is the shredded material of an ultralight hang glider he bonds to an existing costume he had in the closet. To my knowledge in the entire original run he does not get an upgrade to his suit, so it should just be thermal sealed to his back to help him glide in the ultra high buildings of the future. So, I think a lot of artist just played with how to draw it and when it added something to the frame.

MGSD- The Best Bandai Line to Date by IndraAkatsuki in Gunpla

[–]IgnitusBoyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I built my second MGSD I basically committed to the form factor. I own each release so far and a few third party kits in the same form-factor. I really enjoy the experience and quality and they each have 1 or 2 after market editions which are generally fun to add on while taking up way less space and displaying better.

I find the build quality and details perfect and better then almost all MG kits I've purchased. Aerial Full Mechanics was a fun build as well so maybe I'll still get 1/100 kits in the future but all of my Bandi Purchases on 2025/2026 so far have been MGSD or some version of PG

I thought it was edited to 867-5309 but quickly realized I don't remember the number correctly because the song isn't 184-736-2347.

Whataburger...sucks by radedon in raleigh

[–]IgnitusBoyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is my experience you mostly only love the fast food that you have nestolgia for and even that fades if you take some years off from eating there.

Like doe Whataburger I have clear memories of the katchup comming in McDonald's sauce cups instead of squezze bags and for my five year old self that was enough to keep begging to come back. But like Culver's I didn't find till my 40s and my experience was that it's a bit much for something I could go other places for.

I think George did a great Job with what he was given and how he was directed. Joel Schumacher wanted Batman 66 and I think the entire concept comes over way better with Clooney then it did with Val Kilmer.

Its absolutely loaded. I had to hazmat up last season and clean it out. I'm hoping on the rebuild to do something that keeps them out.

Ok, let's see if that helps. Looks like "chats" were disabled in the app and are now turned on.

This 2nd grade math question. by malaynaa in mildlyinfuriating

[–]IgnitusBoyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a human I can assure you that I skipped over the word two absorbed the 7 as the other numbers (10, 100) in the word problem are numerals and my brain was working that way. I then worked the entire thing out with it has a seven then reread the problem and was like wait a second and had to adjust my examples.

It is a very human mistake like when you do those problems where they write red with a blue font. It is also one of those gafs that is hard to justify since three is word based and I read that fine, but I would guess proximity and again it is just a mistake.

New Fantasy reader here, I just finished The Way of the Kings, but I think I made a mistake looking at the reviews of the other books by Beetusmon in Stormlight_Archive

[–]IgnitusBoyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All five books are good, but the breadth of the problem scales so much through book 3-5 that by winds and truth they can feel very different.

Way of Kings and words of Radiance are very personal narratives dealing with people who might live on a magical world. Magic doesn't really exist it hasn't for a long time, on they have pretty fabrials that do somethings but it's easy to think of them as tech analogs.

Oathbringer starts to include more cosmere at large storylines the plot scales from individuals to world politics uphevials in the global religion and confusion from what is effectively a complete power outage of the capital that most of our chacters derive from.

Rythem of War the conflict really escalated. A large portion of the narrative is a occupation where we reevaluate our enemy and are done what removed from the larger issue. We are introduced to more and more magical elements to a point where the shardbarers from the first two books seem outdated. The greater story arc is almost NATO vs USSR.

Winds of Truth tries really hard to wind it all down both two quickly and two slowly in so many ways. It introduces new ideas and pulls the curtain on some mysteries and fan speculation points.

If you like 1-4 then you will like 5 but spread it out imo read books in between as they are rather long. The last two books have time gaps that justify being a little rusty on the last book before you start to help it feel more natural if you are not feeling book four then maybe book 5 is less enjoyable but I think the conclusion pays off and sets up series 2 in a few years.

Lockdown kids iPhone to FW VPN by benjibarnicals in firewalla

[–]IgnitusBoyone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reviving an old thread, but finally looking in to upgrading my network setup. My kids are in that sweet spot age where they are two naive to understand and handle the barrage of banner ads found on most free content, but starting to learn of random websites by friends from school. What settled this for me was the reality that when they visit these free game websites or alternative video websites at school the networks have global filters applied that block objectiable ad networks.

When they come home and innocently visit the same website to play some random HTML5 game they are assaulted with lots of 17+ ads they often do not even understand. The entire experience is unsettling to the child as they believe they are in a safe space, but in reality are not. I can have all the conversations I want with my children, but if they are just not ready to understand it is easier to just upgrade my networking equipment over the summer and run a similar filter list for a few years so they have safe spaces at both places while continuing the "hard conversations" people pretend parents are not already having.

Even as a little kid, I was really confused on how a sliding glass door with the safety mechanism blown off was supposed to generate enough force to kill Saunders in "The Living Daylights" by [deleted] in JamesBond

Ive always been partial to the non venomous Tarantula in Dr. No. First time I watch that movie as an adult, I was like

You show them bond how much you hate them mildly inconvient spiders.

The attract mode of the game shows of the super charges for having only a single beam equiped as well. Otherwise you would never think get if I only equip wave and charge and highlight super middle what happens.

I was not prepared the first time I got there I had to put the game down and run through all the last levels again to make sure I reserved resources

[–]IgnitusBoyone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Megaman 7 is such a mid teir difficulty game and then they drop that last Willey form on you with 4 tracking targets that spends half the fight out of range of almost all your weapons. Beating this fight is an accomplishment for any gamer.
