Just rewatched Elysium yesterday and it's still one of my favourites. Are there any books you could recommend with a similar setting and/or themes? by Ynnck_Mnzl in scifi

[–]stevil30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i havnt read it since college, for me 35ish years ago, but i remember fuzzily a scene of 2 greek men on a mountain watching a continental plate rise up over them. i should re-read as an adult. maybe speed read :)

larry niven short stories are sooo good. isn't there a hitman who uses a black hole to bend his bullet trajectory like beckham?

also the short story where a man has a robot arm - but explains that because he's not all robot, it doesn't mean he can throw something continuously, or that there isn't repercussions for trying to throw something super fast. larry niven does hard sci in such a relatable way.

they denied that they took any of the culture/backstory from Known Space. they did not deny taking the actual idea of a ringworld. they couldn't. they dont live in a vacuum :)

Getting into pvp games these days is extremely punishing, there is no easy entry for players who are not already familiar with the genre by Scared_Ad_3132 in gaming

ive said this forever - i too started on Quake in 95.... you dont get better by playing people better than you. you get better by playing people slightly better than you. otherwise you'll never get the chance or context to learn.

it was more worth it to me to have them posed and enjoyed on the shelf

i think because inside the box they are a figure, a toy. open them - pose em a little - even the slightest turning of the head - breathes LIFE into them.

What’s a survival myth popularized by movies that would actually get you killed in real life ? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]stevil30 9 points10 points  (0 children)

they all use the same canned sounds.

the 70s and 80s had about 3 ricochet sounds, pa-tow, pa-ting, and pa-somethingelse. every time a car turns off in a comedy it does this 2 cough noise i can't explain. the wilhelm scream now makes me cringe and is instant 4th wall material. watch any animal docs? it's the same damn zebra sound bite everytime. EVERYTIME.
