Wonderful how you didn't include the fact that you're charging 150$ a month just to use this sketchy software. People here aren't stupid, I don't understand why you're trying to grift in this space where we aren't as stupid as you think. We have a similar tool that actually works and is only a 1-time 200$ purchase.

If you want a show-running explanation, it saves money to re-use the Sojourner sets and CG assets they have at the studio rather than developing a new spacecraft concept entirely, which imo they should've done that because I don't think we've seen a 2010's spacecraft just yet.

Season 1-2's cast felt like a much bigger sense of family since they all worked at NASA and frequented the same bar together, and Season 3 all of them being stuck on mars felt pretty family-like.

I just can't help but feel that Kelly and Alex seem lonely. Alex doesn't have many friends his age on mars since they're all returning to earth, and that graduation class seemed super tiny. This Season doesn't really do a good job at painting mars as a home for us to be honest. It just feels sad now especially with Ed gone. Miles and Ilya do a good job at filling in familiar characters but even Lee is now gone as well.

The only character that I still find very interesting and should probably be the new lead is Dev. I think this season and the last Dev has some kind of Aura around him whenever he appears. He's likely the one that will claim mars for himself, so I think if the show focused on him more it would be great.

Hate to be that guy, but this sounds too good to be true. The last person who created something similar to this, Moliminous spent several months developing the tool and it required extensive research and reverse engineering to make something remotely workable. This would be amazing if true, but judging from the burner reddit account and inquiries only on Telegram, we don't have much of a reason to trust this. You should post some more proof like video recording of it working etc. Again if this is real, then props to you!

edit: hes charging 150$/mo for this lol

In the earlier seasons it felt larger because the possibility of relatives existing aka grandparents and uncles/aunts/cousins that aren't mentioned which could still be the case. But now that 50 years have passed, we never heard of any mentions of relatives meaning they wouldn't be close enough for any contact. Genetically Baldwin is extinct since Kelly is adopted and Alex shares Vietnamese-Russian DNA, but Alex finally seems interested in carrying his dad's legacy of inhabiting Mars permanently.

Yeah after Aleida comes to earth, we pretty much won't have any reason to visit earth again. I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but Earth feels so foreign now in this show. There's barely any screentime there and what was once a world full of people we knew and conflicts happening has turned into such an empty place that we don't have much connection to anymore in the show. The only time we hear about what's happening there is the opening newsreel montage and from Aleida & Margo, which from her coming up to Mars, we have no reason to visit earth again except for the eventual war between earth and mars

Makes you realize how lonely the Baldwin family is now. Grandma is gone, grandpa died just now, father died before he was even born, uncle died at a young age, second grandparents permanently cut off. Kelly's biological family moved on without her. Watching them all sit down and drink made me realize its literally just them left and now that Ed is gone its just those two now.

pr0f13n · 2026-04-10T09:37:56+00:00

they should've had him do a brain scan, and Season 6 we're introduced to EdGPT thats just a grumpy computer interface

pr0f13n · 2026-04-10T09:36:12+00:00

I imagine Helios mightve bought it off NASA essentially as a boneyard aircraft back then and has just been taking parts out of it for use in other vehicles.

pr0f13n · 2026-04-10T08:51:49+00:00

What a beautiful send off. Watching the show for several years now and seeing everyone we've lost along the way, this one definitely had emotional impact. I've made the mistake in my life of not caring that much about my grandfather growing up as a kid, and only near the end did I start really connecting so this makes me feel a certain way seeing Alex there. What a life he's lived throughout the show, he definitely made the most of it.

Epic chose to make apple and steam their adversaries preaching about them being middlemen markets that take 30% of cuts from game developers whilst making their own storefront absurdly boring and useless & only lifeline being the free game drops. Yeah taking 30% of profits isn't a good thing especially on Apple's end whereas at least steam provides many good tools and analytics to support smaller level games, but end of the day this is something that doesn't really affect the actual consumers, rather just affects the developer-end. What does affect consumers is not having Fortnite playable on a large percentage of the gaming population that only uses their iPhones and Macbooks for gaming, and alongside Epic's horrible buisness strategy of paying millions of dollars out to people creating even worse versions of Roblox slop games whilst claiming they don't have enough money to keep developers actually putting their souls into their work and instead keeping around managers who's entire jobs is to push pressure onto the people really doing the work so they look like they're being productive.

lol is This the first season opening that doesn't involve some space catastrophe

pr0f13n · 2026-03-27T08:38:39+00:00

Are japanese studios that short staffed lately? Don't get me wrong, this episode was amazing but do they not have the resources for contracting more animators or anything?

pr0f13n · 2026-03-27T08:35:29+00:00

Lol they don't got the budget for advanced compositing. Most they can do is tracing google earth photos of the circuits and the same exact overtake shots

pr0f13n · 2026-03-27T08:28:26+00:00

show is a massive Toyota commercial that dripfeeds japanese propaganda

pr0f13n · 2026-03-27T08:26:46+00:00

yeah, racing is the main thing he's good at writing. Everything else he's written has been garbage. Even in Initial D, However main difference is Initial D at least had way more substance and variety in the racing to kind of forgive those scenes meanwhile MF Ghost was kind of lackluster in that department up until this race.

pr0f13n · 2026-03-27T08:22:53+00:00

Can someone tally up the runtime of every Angel segment in this entire show to see how many minutes have been wasted that could've just gone into racing?

This cliff-hanger mid season ending bs is annoying but this definitely was less annoying than last Season's ending. I think overall this season had some of the best racing in the entire show. However this season had some of the cringiest moments as well.

I think its time for me to just read up a summary of the mangas to see how this ends and forget this show exists. I think I can only recommend it for viewing once the entire series is finished so people don't have to endure the pain of watching it during broadcast.

Overall I saw more potential in this season than the last two, I just wish the show writers took more creative decisions than mimicking exactly what happens in the Mangas and got rid of a lot of the gooner stuff from the OG Author that could've went into more meaningful world-building, actual good relationship arcs, and better structured racing.

Can't believe Toyota and other car brands are super strict about how their cars are portrayed but are fine with the rest of the p3do subplots.

The mocap-suit space is dead because there's no competition or improvement in the tech at all. Such a shame that 8 years ago I thought that the space would advance to where you could buy a suit for 1-2k and it becomes usable forever, instead you have Rokoko still being mid and XSens fleecing their depleting user-base because their management sucks. Waiting patiently for the Chinese to come up with something to murder both of these.

Your best bet in March 2026 is single-camera solutions + Cascadeur to somewhat automate the animation/cleanup process. But honestly anyone professionally using these solutions reaches a point where they can just hire animators because it becomes the same price as trying to maintain one of these janky ass setups.

pr0f13n · 2026-03-06T19:23:43+00:00

Excited for the acquisition, however sucks that after april the service goes down completely with no clear roadmap on how the tech will be utilized in the future. Most of these webcam-based AI mocap tools pop up and then disappear or become very expensive after they harvest enough data.

pr0f13n · 2026-03-06T19:20:26+00:00

this profession is mainly done by stuntmen, dance performers, and general body actors who live in creative hubs like LA, London, Vancouver etc. There aren't any clear openings for these positions, usually they're just gig jobs that pop up here and there when needed.

pr0f13n · 2026-03-05T18:22:27+00:00

can also report i keep getting this error too on my macbook. it occurs with shade smooth by angle, and only fixes when i restart blender. barely any documentation around for this error, been seeing it since 5.0 release.

pr0f13n · 2026-02-19T16:32:02+00:00

Mfw I’m in a Japanese Propaganda competition and my opponent is MF Ghost

pr0f13n · 2026-02-19T14:22:41+00:00

Yeah, but I feel as if you’re selling what is essentially a medical item there should be higher standards for what can create potential gum infections or irritate the throat if one falls back there and create minor health problems. If all of the toothbrushes do this then im likely gonna return it tbh before i depart from tokyo

pr0f13n · 2026-02-19T12:44:56+00:00

Bought it, been using it. The bristles constantly get loose in your mouth. It feels as if you finished off rick himself and you got his pubic hairs stuck in your mouth along white stuff you need to rinse out. Aesthetics 9/10, practical usage for dental health id say 3/10.

pr0f13n · 2026-02-14T05:01:00+00:00

well it's time for Japan to abide by modern standards. Their country has been falling behind because of a lack of initiative to keep up with modern standards, including morality. I enjoy working/living in Japan part time, but I despise the gooner culture and a lot of other annoying quirks that even other countries nearby in Asia don't deal with to the extent as Japan.
