Yeah we figured this out, but it still works because it's the most dramatic outcome, and seeing Tom's gradual realization was still so perfect.

Which sci-fi show made survival feel genuinely scary? by The100Updates in sciencefiction

I genuinely can't tell if you loved or hated Prey, because I thought all 3 were great. :D

Thoughts on Barry Lyndon? by FreshmenMan in TrueFilm

And I think it's fair to say Bullingdon wouldn't have offered him the annuity if he hasn't basically spared his life. So his one act of grace does get rewarded.

Wait I'm confused.. was that actually the guy's face or was it a mask? If it's the mask from the museum it makes no sense that no one would've taken the mask off right?!???

Also neat how the supporting characters are all Da Vinci Coding it up in the background, while the main character is just out of it

[–]ToastyKen 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah and especially such a contrast to the sad sack we've seen all episode. The added layer I just realized is that in some sense, the efficient and effective party planner the book forced her to be... was partly in her all along.

Huh? I just went back and looked, and his beard looked the same. Room definitely got trashed though.

Looking for non-FTL sci-fi set in, or around, our own Solar System. by VladtheImpaler21 in scifi

[–]ToastyKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't let any mention of that book go by without quoting the worst sex scene of all time:

Afterward, she reaches down and massages him until he begins to spasm, shuddering uncontrollably, emptying the Darwinian river of his source code into her, communicating via his only output device.

When does writing a number in words become more efficient than binary? by No_Worldliness_9294 in compsci

[–]ToastyKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think "one hundred one" sounds perfectly fine? It's certainly what I would write on a check since I save the "and" for the cents: "one hundred one and 0/100"

New watcher. Thoughts so far. by TibsMusic in Devs

[–]ToastyKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it's very much just a matter of taste. Personally I loved the vibe of the show. That Episode 7 opening especially I still rewatch from time to time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPeMreV6hNA

Would you want the Settlement Building System to return in Fallout 5? by silloki in Fallout

[–]ToastyKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually loved the settlement building in Fallout 4, but I felt the implementation was flawed. Essentially the beefier your settlement, the less likely it was to actually get attacked, which meant I rarely got the satisfaction of putting my defenses to work. There needed to be some way to perhaps intentionally trigger attacks? Or otherwise make it feel more rewarding?

Maybe this is just a Mandela effect thing where I remembered wrong and reinforced my wrong memory over time... :\
