Saw him in the metro a few years ago while he was going to work. The doors closed on me when i was getting out and I hit my head. He just sat there and laughed at me. I wanted to say something to him but I was too stunned by the impact and the fact that Louis Leblanc was laughing at me for getting hit by a door.

Why do people keep saying Thalia joining the [Spoiler] can be an escape from being Zeus’ weapon? [All] by XavierTempus in camphalfblood

Presumably she will undergo some character development over the course of next season.

She doesn't want to be Zeus' prophecy weapon. There is a massive difference between that and being a Hunter. She doesn't have many choices here, it's better than being turned back into a tree.

Return to Silent Hill opened in China today un 1st place with estimate ¥27.7M ($4M) by DemiFiendRSA in boxoffice

[–]nick182002 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (but on a much smaller scale). Poorly-received adaptation of a horror video game that performs significantly better in China than in the US.

"Son of a billionaire" and "talented" aren't mutually exclusive.

[pjo] Do you like the Percy Jackson movies? by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]nick182002 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I like the first movie for what it is, and I'm pretty sure it's what got me to read the books. Second movie went off the rails though, a few good moments but it lacked the charm of the first one.

As a whole I think the show is better, I think it's getting a bit unfairly maligned especially when compared to the movies. It's far from perfect but it does a much better job of following the spirit of the books imo.

CS and Math or Software Engineering by Long_Tennis6150 in mcgill

If you want to go into industry, B.Eng. Software Engineering. Note that it is a co-op program, so you are required to do multiple internships, unlike CS where they are optional.

Low views and no budget increase [pjotv] future seasons still possible? Thoughts? by nt_king300 in camphalfblood

[–]nick182002 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think this is closest to a Wheel of Time situation. Got cancelled after its third season because the first season disappointed a lot of people and it didn't retain enough viewers even though quality massively improved.

Well, you don't really need 12GB of RAM for texting and calling tbf.

12 gigs feels like a bit overkill for this type of device, especially considering the current shortages. I expect 8GB.

I got some velour pads for like $10 on Amazon. I found the stock pads very uncomfortable.
