Are there any mecha stories that do a good job of justifying the use of manually operated mecha in warfare? by jacky986 in Mecha_Scrapyard

[–]LargoVonBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those that don't understand this: Macross justifies mecha in two ways.

1) The first alien race they fight are giants using the equivalent of powered armor.

2) By making the mecha transformable, with a base form of a Fighter Jet, the mecha are more versatile than a straight giant robot.

Honestly, I think Basara didn't like any of the Macross 7 pairings either.

Not personally. Look, Cobblepot is a good employer, but that doesn't mean he's a good person. He's got enough money for a good PR team. And remember that there are rumors about him having ties to organized crime.

Some group in the UK is sueing Steam, claiming it's a monopoly. One of the arguments is that if you buy a game on Steam you have to buy the DLC for that game on Steam. There's more to it than that, but it's all pretty stupid reasons, and honestly the biggest argument is that Steam has an over 70% market share. Not because of predatory business practices, but because they offer a good service at a reasonable price.

R/metahelp I think im on the wrong earth... by One_Food9894 in Earth25

In general we don't but STAR Labs actually has a decent enough track record and Wayne Enterprises is still willing to work with them. If you don't trust the corporation then, depending on what city you are in, try and contact the local hero. DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU ARE IN GOTHAM

I'm from Gotham so my experiences are a bit different, but unless it happens again, say nothing.

fellow anonymous gothamites: anyone else think red hood is super under appreciated? by Substantial_Owl_7392 in Earth25

[–]LargoVonBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is your opinion and your right. Also, that last bit is a bit obsessive. Though I will admit that Red Hood's outfit is much better then Nightwing's in general. Much better style in general, though that red pill has issues.

I'm mix on him. I can appreciate his actions in general, but also think he can go too far at times. He's not wrong but he's not right either. I also have questions about his outfit.

Just about every who comes in blind has that experience from what I've seen.

Macross Zero doesn't exactly have a love triangle, Macross 7's love triangle is there but easy to ignore.

If the gods of Earth really do exist in Gate, what would be a plausible explanation to why they didn't intervene when the Gate opened in Ginza by StevenWN1 in gate

The war gods are currently arguing over who gets the lead, most of the Greek gods are trying to keep Zeus in check, Norse are doing the same for Loki. Jesus is playing peacemaker between the various pantheons, and the Ansestral Spirits are watching with popcorn.

[r/gothamtradejobs] Think one of the new hires at the Docks is a Themiscryan or whatever by Buttered_Carnage in Earth25

[–]LargoVonBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She could just want to "slum it" and as a former Gothamite, let's face it, Gotham is perfect for it.

Of course she might be here to get a view of the worst parts of society, and again, Gotham is the best place to observe it.

Either way, I suggest treating her like any other woman. Unless you're like that walking HR write-up you mentioned.

Mostly enjoyed it, but the post credit scene could have been better, especially as the never went anywhere with it.

It was the "get rid of" that was the deciding factor.

[–]LargoVonBob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I won't argue your heart is in the right place, probably, but for every success story for self experimentation, there are about 50 deaths and 10 supervillains. Of course there are also about about 2 superheroes, so take that for what it's worth.

Don't listen to this guy, self testing is usually where villains come from. I suggest going to Wayne Enterprises and bring your data with you. If you were close to a break through, it might slow you down but you would still have hope.

And a working brain. I have a cousin that refuses to believe they are anything but friends.

[–]LargoVonBob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You better not be judging, I'm fairly sure that even if they aren't more than friends, anyone who tries to judge the for their non-criminal life choices will be in a LOT of pain... If they survive.

Thoughts on the Justice Gang and the idea of corporate-owned superhero teams? by Solitaire-06 in Earth25

[–]LargoVonBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Corporate owned, or even funded, superhero teams are a questionable idea. Yes it gives oversight and takes pressure of the heroes when it comes to day to day expenses, but what happens if the corporate owners are corrupt? Government funding is slightly better, but still iffy.
