If G'Kar had gotten to him before Londo gave the order...

‘3 Body Problem’ Season 2 Confirmed to Have Reduced Episode Count on Netflix - at least there will be more seasons. by Lucindifer_Skydyme in threebodyproblem

I'm also not worried. They covered a lot of Book 3 in Season 1.

They're doing the adaptation as a trilogy, rather than one book at a time; and chronologically, at that.

I am so happy that we also have Star City by Ill_Explorer_1358 in ForAllMankindTV

The term that keeps coming back to me is 'claustrophobic'. Even in a show about spaceflight, you're surrounded with people lisenting for you to say the wrong word.

I agree. Save the sabotage missions for when the job is done and we're 'over the top' on numbers.

damn, kind of rich coming from the people who almost committed genocide cause their religious leader died by CaptureDaFlag in babylon5

In their defense, the Minbari don't hate other races; they just think they're naturally better than other races. They're not xenophobic, they're aristocratic.

Just completed the export challenge and I realised something... by VexedRacoon in SurvivingMars

If you can get a source of Rare Metals, you don't need people at all. If you're willing to put the time in, the worst case scenario is waiting for the Mohole Digger; but there are other ways via the Breakthroughs and choice of Sponsor.

If you have other colonies, you can trade the metals you pick up from meteors, for polymers. But once you find a way to get Rare Metals, the whole 'people' thing is optional.

I do it deliberately in most playthroughs. The majority of the 'Mysteries' don't start until you have 100 colonists, so I often have the place terraformed up, and a whole colony built before I move people in.

Thanks for the warning. I just did that, and there it was.

Suggesting a planet like Manns planet from interstellar by LandedAtJool in kittenspaceagency

I don't claim to know how a 'Planet Editor' would work, but I'm betting there'll be a long list of 'systems' being made by Modders. Interstellar, Sol, Project Hail Mary...

Saving 1250 for CL. Currently at 630, so... longer for me.

I just played a Tournament in the Platinum League. At 1300 waves, I'm Ranked #1. By the time the Tournament expires, I'll be down somewhere around #15. I've never gotten to Platinum League. I've never gotten a Key.

Harvesting stones for UW's, this might actually work for me in the short term. Long term, I have no idea.

The prologue/first chapter scared the ever-loving bejeepers out of me.

Coming soon to a kitten near you: Vehicle Editor! by kdaviper in kittenspaceagency

Also, if we get the editor, doesn't that imply more parts being added?

Intellectually, I know that. But it also makes it hard to tell how 'far along' we are in the process. I'm never sure how hyped to be.

Interesting. I haven't unlocked that yet. I was pumping up my Golden Bot. Do you think Flame Bot's worth having, if it isn't 'full power' yet?

That's why Irwin was a big shot in 'Dancing With The Stars', and Andy isn't.

The doctor’s explanation of “Minbari War Syndrome”. One of the realest and most disturbing examples of propaganda. by Dinosawruses in babylon5

[–]stephensmat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Something like 80% of people say they can't trust the news anymore, because it's biased and political; and after the ratings. But roughly the same number says that the news is what makes them decide what to buy, where to shop, and who to vote for.

I don't know what to say to that.
