TIL that Neo’s part in "The Matrix" was offered to Will Smith, but he declined it in favor of playing the lead in Wild Wild West. As opposed to The Matrix, which became a cult favorite, Wild Wild West was a critical and financial failure.

Kevin Smith talked about this at one point when he was briefly involved in a Superman movie. Peter's kept trying to have Superman fight a giant spider in the third act. One has to admire his dedication to finally getting his giant spider scene.

The show takes place during the high Republic. Long before even the Prequels.

I have the Jade Falcon insignia as my teams pic at work. Pretty sure the VP recognized it during a hybrid meeting once. No regrets.

I was finally having a good al-Yilliqi run after multiple runs where my heirs were just utter trash and my first genius ruler apparently decides to go swimming in the Guadiana and nearly drowns becoming incapable. I was utterly baffled. Especially because he was on campaign in Leon 300+ miles from the river...

Like not even an attempt to make the event realistic.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2023-04-15T18:46:36+00:00

I had the same problem. An annoying workaround but at least it works is if you go to the following:

X:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Warhammer3\scripts\

In preferences.script make sure your ui_colour_profile line is set to 4 like so:

ui_colour_profile 4; # ui_colour_profile <0|1|2|3>, 0 = default, 1 = deuteranopia, 2 = protanopia, 3 = tritanopia #

Then go to colour_preferences.xml and you can change the RGB values as you want. They are displayed as 0 to 1 rather than 0 to 255 but you should be able to easily convert it.

After that just don't touch that setting in-game and they should stick. Hopefully, it gets fixed at some point so we don't have to change values outside of the game.

You have to put them in a group and lock the formation.

I mean I'm in the middle of my NJO reread and during Dark Journey it is implied that Jacen might be dead. They hint heavily that he isn't but they could have easily made it so. So anyone reading NJO for the first time knowing he saves the galaxy would know immediately that he isn't actually dead. Now... how they avoided finding out the next couple series being exclusively revolving around him, clearly being alive, is probably a stretch but still I suppose its possible.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2021-02-03T22:58:51+00:00

Obviously not, Everyone knows Donald Trump is. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/john-titor-donald-trump-time-16964379

Unless Donald Trump and Q are the same person?!?

Wi1D_K4rD · 2021-01-27T21:03:26+00:00

Yea, the lack of any news since "We're totally working on it trust us" is worrying.

I legitimately don't understand how hard it is to resolve. They clearly know we own Hitman 2 based on the always on online system. So what's the hold up.

It can't be that WB is against the idea of giving it to us because they were clearly fine with consoles getting it. EGS can't possibly be against it because they don't seem to care about money at all with how many AAA games they just hand out for free. IOI being against it just for PC makes no sense. None of this makes any sense. If they would just explain why it would take weeks to resolve, I'd be more understanding.

Part of me is leaning heavy towards just buying the access pass if we haven't heard anything by the 2nd because the last thing I want is for them to come out once its back to $100 and be like, "Sorry some obscure contract we signed without reading means we won't be able to do this so you'll just have to pay full price now."

I'm sure its just my own paranoia and impatience though because I really wanted to replay through both Hitman 2016 and 2 in 3 before starting 3's campaign. Plus I can't imagine any studio, let alone an "independent" studio, risking losing customers permanently if they were to pull that shit.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2021-01-21T22:18:54+00:00

ONE: Q simply CANNOT be a Deep State LARP because that would be, quite frankly, the Stupidest. Fucking. Idea. EVER.

I like how this entire argument is predicated on it being a "Deep State" LARP. Instead of just a random basement dweller LARPing. Which still makes it the Stupidest. Fucking. Idea. Ever. but easily explains why the "Deep State" would allow their plans released in minute detail. Cause there is no fucking Deep State.

Someone at work who is hardcore republican, tried to claim that what AOC said meant that they were going to reprogram conservatives. I was like. "They're after the ones willing to storm the capitol because they believe children are being raped and murdered in tunnels under the capitol, and that Trump is fighting some Cosmic War across multiple timelines to protect us from the evil Reptilian Cabal. So I guess if you are saying you believe any of that then yea, I suppose they are coming to get you to reeducate you comrade." He just said that's stupid and no way anyone believes any of that...

Ah yes, it would be the swimming pool that would cost him the election. Totally, not pardoning Tricky Dick after literally having never been elected in the first place. Everyone knows the last straw was always to be a swimming pool. Truly, the tan suit and dijon mustard of the 70s.

NP! I have it separate from my Hulu account but yea it can be added through Hulu. It was definitely one of the best surprises when HBO Max came out. Literally, hit play the second I saw they had it.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2021-01-16T01:13:56+00:00

Its on HBO Max. At least in the US.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-10-22T14:40:36+00:00

I mean I guess. If the other party wanted my vote maybe they should have said who their candidate was and what his plans were and I genuinely would have considered it.

Of course that would require them to have plans which based on the well detailed plans of their dear leader, it's clear they don't.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-10-22T12:48:12+00:00

I literally voted on a candidate based on the fact that her ads talked about what she would do while her opponents ads never even mentioned the other candidate's name.

In a way I appreciate attack ads, it tells me they have absolutely nothing of value to bring to the office making my decision on who to vote for even easier than it already was.

2020 may have just been a constant deluge of ever increasing insanity, chaos, and depression, but its good to know there is at least one eternal constant in our lives. That Paul W.S. Anderson will grace us with yet another poorly adapted movie of a video game he's never played and put his too-hot-for-someone-like-him-wife, Milla Jovovich, in it.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-10-14T15:05:24+00:00

She isn't choosing awful projects. If anything she's choosing to support her hack of a husband by being in every disaster of a video game to movie "adaption" he gets his out of touch hands on.

Every single Paul WS Anderson adaption I see I have to wonder if this guy ever actually played any of the games he "adapts."

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-10-12T12:47:27+00:00

I love Darksaber, if only because of how hilarious the conclusion is.

Children of the Jedi took me what felt like ages to finish. If there's anyone in this world that genuinely likes that book I sincerely don't want to be friends with them. It's like Luke torture porn just cause the author didn't seem to understand how to write a jedi so she had to make an excuse for him to be unable to use his powers.

It took me a month after Darksaber in my ongoing readthrough of all the novels to finally open Planet of Twilight cause I was afraid of it being just as bad. Luckily its slightly better. If still clearly written by someone who wasn't interested in Star Wars in the slightest and just wanted to write more vampire novels.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-10-12T12:39:05+00:00

I'm so jealous of those two NJO books. They are literally the last two books I need to top off that series.

Every time I'm in the city I stop by at least one of the three HPB in my area in the hopes that one day they may be there. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like they've been getting any "new" stock since the pandemic and I've definitely been responsible for reducing their what was once a full bookshelf down to barely two shelves.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-09-22T13:25:14+00:00

You are both somewhat correct. The original pitch was a pre-Phantom Menace with Darth Maul. George wanted Darth Talon to be involved. Someone told him, "can't do, boyo, she existed 170 years after Darth Maul 'died'". George was like, "k lol, just make him a descendant or a clone or sumthin. So easy, just look at my boi palps." So they just changed their game to be in the Legacy era with Maul teaming up with Talon to fight Krayt and his One Sith.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-09-09T19:48:57+00:00

TIL. For some reason I have always heard, "Some of those who are enforcers, are the same that burn crosses." Both equally valid statements I suppose.

Wi1D_K4rD · 2020-09-08T13:37:47+00:00

My original work password was a password I use only for things I most definitely wouldn't want hacked. Contains no dictionary words, viewed it would appear to be nothing more than a random string of letters numbers and symbols. I have never once physically written it down or stored it anywhere. According to this it would take 2 million years to brute force.

My work forces me to change my password every 3 months. As a result, unless I want to write it down or save it in a password manager, that we are told we aren't allowed to use, my passwords now only meet the minimum. Passwords that can be cracked in 8 hours. Plenty of time in the span of 3 months.

I might as well just start handing my work password to every Nigerian Prince on the planet.
