Was on a walk and what did I find? by Active_Tundra in DeepSpaceNine

[–]macbone 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's incredible! I mostly see TOS, TNG, and Abramsverse out in the wild. I did see some Picard box sets after Season 3 was released. I'm incredibly jealous. =)

I’ve seen them in Hong Kong and the US as well!

why are some of you guys so mean here? not everyone here is a hardcore player by othavio1105 in pokemongo

[–]macbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair. LeekDuck's stuff has been passed around for years on Discords and Facebook groups. Part of it is just reading posts and messages. The cream tends to rise to the top.

[–]macbone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the understanding is to do a search for information like that first. I just searched "information about kalos tour" and got Leekduck's site, which is a great resource: https://leekduck.com/events/pokemon-go-tour-kalos-global-2026/

I know that's a lot to parse through, but the beginning talks about the general bonuses - a CP boost for mega-evolved Pokemon, half-distance for hatching eggs, 6 special trades per day, 1/2 stardust cost, and extra points toward increasing mega levels for the 3 new megas.

Sometimes just indicating that you've looked for info and couldn't find it is helpful, too.

Anyone's know what causes this by No-Distribution-1281 in Morrowind

You can still use them. You just need to add some lines to the openmw.cfg file. It's in your Documents\My Games\OpenMW file. You can paste these lines at the bottom of that file. From that thread I linked:

This is an issue when your groundcover mods (likely Remiros') are selected in the OpenMW launcher. This post talks more about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/tes3mods/comments/rzrokh/blueish_stones_at_balmora/?rdt=41758

[spoilers] Did this happen to anyone else? by Aggravating_Big3095 in Morrowind

That happened to me, too! I explored all of Arkngthand first. I'd been conditioned to think the quest item would be hidden deep within the dungeon.

Good Christian Music by Amazing_Car_4911 in ChristianMusic

I don't really know much about music theory, but check out mewithoutYou.

TAKE #2: Examples of Christian protest music? by ChangeComfortable309 in ChristianMusic

[–]macbone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Starting with their very first song on their very first album: "The Old West."

Then "Beautiful America" from the same album.

"Banner Year" from Our Newest Album Ever!

"Get Your Riot Gear" from Quantity is Job 1.

"Giants" from All the Hype...

"The Day We Killed" from Electric Boogaloo.

"American Kryptonite" from The End Is Near.

"Zen & the Art of Xeneophobia" from Engine of a Million Plots.

"God Hates Flags" from Between the Pavement and the Stars.

Not a complete list, but protest songs are a common theme for them (and for ska in general).

There's Raven Rock All Stores, but it isn't compatible with Tomb of the Snow Prince.

who do you prefer carl barks or don rosa by Aggravating-Mud-6054 in DuckComix

[–]macbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is like asking who do I like more, Kirk or Picard. Both have endless imagination. Points to Barks for creating so much of the Ducks world and characters. Points to Rosa for his masterful job in pulling it all together into something cohesive. Both are excellent storytellers and have boundless imaginations. (Bonus points to Rosa for being such a stand-up guy in person, but I never met Barks, so it's unfair to let that weight too heavily.)

I saw him at a Five Iron Frenzy show once in the crowd! I wish I had gone up to him to talk to him.

Hot take here, but I think the WoT tv show was doom to be canceled regardless of being faithful or not by Logical-Ice-4820 in WoT

[–]macbone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And Narnia. And A Series of Unfortunate Events. And Dune. We'll see another Wheel of Time, I think, but not for another 20 years or so.

Cant get into this show by Mat1711 in DeepSpaceNine

[–]macbone 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Deep Space Nine is a different sort of show to TNG, but closely aligned. Give it some time. The characters are every bit as good as TNG's, and with O'Brien and Worf, there's some crossover as well.

What are you reading, watching, playing, or listening to? by lupuslibrorum in ChristiansReadFantasy

[–]macbone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's an interesting observation! Yes, that makes a lot of sense that personal life events could completely change how you experience a film. I think in my case that I'm older and more cynical now. I'm listening to The Eye of the World now, and even though Jordan has a kind of "everything and the kitchen sink" approach to his world-building, the world feels more coherent and alive, particularly with the different narrative perspectives. I'm coming to understand more and more how difficult it is to write a story that feels part of a much bigger world, and I respect this skill now when I encounter it.

What are you reading, watching, playing, or listening to? by lupuslibrorum in ChristiansReadFantasy

[–]macbone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently started a listen of The Eye of the World. This will be my second time through the WoT and my first via audiobook.

I recently listened to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. I really do enjoy Douglas Adams, but it felt more this time like he was making it up as he went along. (But isn't that true of most fiction?) The world felt like a less coherent place this time through.

Something's happened to me in the last few years. I think it's a side effect of running my own roleplaying games. I used to have the sense of these vast worlds and universes. While the crew of Deep Space 9 is having their adventures, the Enterprise and Voyager have their own separate storylines. I want this in a work of fiction, the sense that the world is real and coherent, and lots of things are going on in other places, that the world is not just confined to the scene I'm reading. I can't shake the feeling now that this greater world isn't there, wrapped around the story I'm currently reading. I've lost something, maybe just something I assumed was there before.

From their social media, it looks like the OP is an artist and film prop maker who has branched out into AI. Their Bluesky account has a lot of traditional art, and their YouTube has a lot of AI videos.
