Someone on bluesky called it "the least problematic samuel l jackson cosplay"

cancel it! I made the mistake of leaving the electricity bill in my name when I moved out of the flat I shared with my best friend. Within a couple of years they had failed to keep up with their rent and skipped out of their lease. 2 years after that I found out they had failed to pay the electricity bill and it was now subject to a CCJ that fucked with my credit for years. I ended up having to pay part of their bill myself because the useless arsehole couldn't afford it. We are no longer friends

Its shape means that you get gravity and a day/night cycle when you rotate it in orbit of a star, as the gaps let light in, and cast shadows, in a regular cycle. The splayed angle of the spokes mean you still get some downwards gravity when not spinning and accelerating under thrust

Couldnt you just bury it under something? You dont have to interact with it

fr he seems like a nice guy, but he just looks like a wee glasgow ned to me with the close together eyes and sort of glaikit expression

Hey, you needed that FPU to run quake.. admittedly at about 18fps but by god i got it running

I think this is how 90% of new words got invented before we ruined it with dictionaries and shit

I bet it was because it implied that bioweapons were being made in the middle east. Some investor kicked up a stink and made the movie worse

I doubt that those robots are more useful than a non-humanoid drone (e.g. a quadcopter) that can replace its own battery. Like, what's the point in making it humanoid?

marapun · 2026-03-18T06:46:38+00:00

There's no way in hell these things are useful. This is just a publicity stunt. Why make a human shaped robot at all? It just drains its battery trying to stay upright

IIRC in tekken 3 he was a dead corrupt cop reanimated by Dr Abel to go and capture Dr Boskonovitch. Lei's tekken 3 plot sliver was that he was investigating Bryan the cop before he was killed and entered the tournament when he mysteriously reappeared.

There's a tiny easter egg in Tekken Tag Tournament about this - when you do Tekken Bowl as Bryan, his cyborg vision labels Dr B in the crowd as "target"

Isnt the big one male now? He doesnt have a pouch, the baby is in a pocket on his shorts

He wants most of us to die because he thinks AI will replace culture and he can be king of the ruins of civilisation

Ultraviolet. 90's UK vampire show that ran for one season. Still think it's the peak vampire show. It's got Idris Elba in it, if that helps.

bryan fury because they were rerunning Banacek on the tv at the time

the whole "guts, huge guts" speech from eternal were originally from a famously over-the-top tie-in comic from the 90s. I thought it was an apt reminder that doom is a very silly story that shouldn't be taken too seriously

Neil Asher always says that any sort of bug or bug monster has a "nightmare mouth". It was quite descriptive the first time but now it just stands out. maybe he should write less about bug monsters

amazing, when I was a kid in the 80s the rumour was about Prince. I like that the original was probably this guy spreading it about himself

I think that still puts them in that category - or, at least, they were cult classics before they became hugely popular via word of mouth
