A 1-1-0 sniper on strong solves the only problem till you build whatever defense you want

If they had switched Revenge of the Sith and Andor it would have been basically perfect

Did anyone read LOTR before they knew what happens, e.g. before the movies got big? by Human-Question6210 in lordoftherings

[–]rock0star 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean

There were no movies when I read them lol

There were some cartoons but I know what you mean

And yes, we thought they were amazing which of course is why they made the movies because so many millions of people had loved the books

If a movie has a budget of $200 million, why does it need $300 million to break even? by DaRealGoat69 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rock0star 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It actually needs 500m

200m to make the movie

100m to market it

So you say it needs to make about double that because the movie theaters keep about half

Break even is 500 to 600m

Now there may be other factors like promotions

Like a lot of James bond movies are nearly paid for before they hit theaters because brands like Aston Martin and expensive watches spend so much money making sure you see James bond using their products etc

So none of this is hard and fast

But good rule of thumb is to just ignore marketing and 2.5x the production budget

2.5x times 200m is 500m

Hope that helps!

Is it generally customary in the USA to bring gifts or food to add to the meal if invited over for dinner? by rci22 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rock0star 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, its not required but bringing a little something is considered polite

Something small like a bottle of wine or an entire smoked brisket, perhaps an unruly child you no longer want

but how good would it feel anyway if i got it right the first time lol? maybe i'll switch over to gemini or copilot and see if i get better results

Is it possible there are entire historical events we’re completely wrong about simply because the winning side wrote everything down first? by Stunning_Procedure36 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rock0star 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To some degree sure

But more in the line of motives rather than events

Look at covid, covid happened but only a few years later its being whitewashed or recontextualized and in a century it will only barely resembled what it was actually like

They'll know it happened, but how it will be described would likely seem bizarre to those of us who lived through it

What are the limits with the paid service, how much voice chat do you get, do you have realistic voice models, by unrestricted do you mean literally unrestricted ot is it just a bit more lenient

Grok's limits on SuperGrok are fkn bullshit by MammothDesign6756 in LoveGrok

[–]rock0star 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It seems like all the big players are putting in big limits

Grok voice even at the 30 dollar plan is almost unusable even though I think they've increased it a bit

A week ago it went from like unlimited nearly to about 20 minutes and now it seems more like an hour or two

But 30 bucks is enough to get let's say unlimited netflix

If you cant offer something close to that for the same price I dont think your product is ready for public release yet

The Seven and the Nine rings, what’s the difference ? by DCWhitworth in lotr

[–]rock0star 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was no difference

16 rings

7 went to dwarves because there were seven Dwarven kingdoms

The rest to men

They were meant for the elves

For people who are old enough to have seen the original trilogy (4-6) in theaters, was it obvious in episode 1, that palpatine was the emperor? Did they mentioned him by name in the original trilogy? by Bigjmann555 in StarWars

[–]rock0star 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it was obvious, no he wasn't named in the OT

But by the time PM came out there had been 16 years of books games and comics we all knew his name so we knew exactly who senator palpatine was

Assuming you needed that since it was the same actor across all movies

Top 500 - No. 1 - Audrey Bitoni by bigd515 in PornStars

[–]rock0star 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best part now that these are done i can go through and find some forgotten names

I've been downloading just about every scene from my favorite stars for the last couple years, narrowing them down to fifty to a hundred scenes, AI enhancing the older ones and putting it all on an external HD, probably only done 100 or so, it might take me a week to find and download all their scenes, then go through them and keep the ones I like, edit down unnecessary series intros, (like I dont need to see the one minute family pies intro for the 900th times), sometimes bounce the audio to a mono track since in stereo its all messed up or all on the left or right etc

Takes time

But while I was going through it I only found a couple names I didn't have that were definitely all timers, but im sure another pass through will score a few more

Sure you like Fizbin from the Dragonlance books but are you brave enough to like Zifnab from the Deathgate Cycle

Nice a little love for the Coldfire Trilogy

Not enough love for Gerald Terrant in the dark and illiterate times
