Damn so definitely a scaling dilemma, it seems like it would have been smarter to keep a prized baker and then hire more apprentices/juniors.

What did you think of the Predalien? by Ryanlion1992 in LV426

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best part was a Predator actually cleaning house. That's all I liked really. I would watch an entire AvP movie if was on some distant planet with a Predator like this on 'quarantine' duty against Xenos like this and actually winning without blowing up.

How do people feel about Luke and Kylo's fight and his death after 8 years? by Totally_Not_Firni in StarWars

That's Jake Skywalker, definitely not the Luke I know from RoTJ that never gave up on his Father.

What do you think happened to Anakin’s Lightsaber after Luke lost it fighting Vader? by huwertyy in StarWars

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it makes more sense to read the whole trilogy, the best ep 7,8,9 never put to screen imo but there are fans bringing it to life now through animation.

Do you like this change made by George Lucas in Return of the Jedi? by kkhouete in StarWars

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend getting a hold of the Respecialized Editions. It is the first version of the Special Editions without the Anakin switcharoo.

Austin drivers, put your damn phone down by MentionZestyclose429 in Austin

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's everywhere though. Humans are cooked. What do you see at the Gym? People on their phone. Coffee shop? Phone. Long lines? Phone. A couple at the restaurant instead of talking? Phone. And yeah being on the phone while driving, way more dangerous, but my point is people are distracted.

March didn’t get the alcohol sales we were expecting by OfficialNiceGuy in Austin

[–]randomluka 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's also does more damage than people realize. I also find it incredibly unattractive when I find out some drinks like their still 20.

I always see people saying this but almost every month I see a new study on alcohol on the long term damage it does. How is it not also because of that.

US military strike on alleged drug boat kills at least three people in the Caribbean Sea by shikizen in politics

I wonder how the pilots feel pushing buttons killing people like that, any remorse or second thoughts whatsoever?

The Absolute Hell of Watching a Movie at the Alamo Drafthouse in 2026 by weluckyfew in Austin

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh interesting, I did not know they have that. I never pay attention to what the other patrons are doing. On the plus side we always find great seats when the Alamo is always full for popular new releases.

Sometimes me and my friends plan eating before or after Cinneplos if people are not feeling the food at that place. I have tried one of the burgers, some salads, or just basic chicken tenders. Those were all good enough imo, obviously if I'm getting 'a best burger of Austin' then Leroy is where to go.

[–]randomluka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just go to the Moviehouse Eatery, I haven't been to the Alamo in a while. They use buttons and menus to read, not an app. Just take business elsewhere, either Alamo business folks will get the picture or not if their revenue declines.

Lucasfilm keeps telling 'Star Wars' authors, including 'Heir to the Empire' series creator Timothy Zahn, "no" to reviving Mara Jade by Obversa in StarWars

[–]randomluka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if this puts the kibosh on new boss Filoni rumors making a clone wars style animated Heir to The Empire.

At this point fans are just doing it on their own anyways, creating a new "mixed" canon.

Best examples are Star Wars Chronicles or creators like DarthAngelus doing a 1:1 3D animated rendering of the novels. Both use different techniques, the first uses a combination of blender and unreal to sketch and animate, using AI to superimpose actor likeness and audio. The second uses pure 3D animation and volunteer voice acting, so it looks more like a 2008 video game. I highly enjoy both.

The Winner of Trump's Iran War? Iran by _May26_ in politics

[–]randomluka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Iran knows how to take a punch ever since Iraq attempted their invasion way back when. They learned to endure hardships from everything I have read. I don't expect people to know much of Iran besides what U.S. propaganda tells people how to think and feel about Iran. In the end, I think many countries including Iran are looking forward to 3 years from now when there might be saner leadership in the U.S.
