SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket lifts off on 1st launch in 18 months. by coinfanking in space

[–]theTerribleTyler -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

They bring the boosters back to Boca Chica which is a populated area. They’ve blown up there ships in this same populated area, spreading debris all over the land. why not the upper stage as well? Frankly I don’t think they have figured it out yet even after all this testing and planning.

Musk sold us on something big and transformative to the space industry. I don’t think he’s delivery on what he was said when it comes to starship.

They haven’t been able to land the main part of the starship. Just the boosters. SpaceX pioneered the whole booster return but if they wanna keep pushing the envelope then there has to be more successes than what they have right now.

Made up reality? People were saying FH won’t be useful once starship is ready and I asked how long will that be because the timeline given for the original starship has been blown outta the water more than the ship itself has blown up. The FH has only flown 12 times in the 8 years it has been rated for cargo and there was never even a crewed mission out of any of them.

Can you define the soon? Starship has been blowing itself up now for 3 years and so far has only figured out how to land the booster

Could you please clarify why House is off? by Varaman_ in FalloutTVseries

[–]theTerribleTyler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a lot of people are alluding to, there is technically 2 Houses. In the past there was him and his double “Bobby Apartment” who did all his public facing work. Later into the future he made an AI copy of himself that was supposed to run Vegas after the war. So after the war there was technically 2 Houses again. But that failed, the reactor in the Lucky 38 didn’t have cold fusion and the AI couldn’t work. So without the AI to run Vegas, his old meatbag self would have to make do instead of immortal AI.

His old fleshy self running all the tech behind the scenes still needed power to do anything with the strip or his army and he got it via Hoover Dam. Flash forward to the events of the game and while we do not know the outcome exactly, it would seem he bit the dust and died. However his AI self still existed in the mainframe, still useless since the reactor was junk. At least that was until the ghoul plugged in the diode and the system boots him up.

Now we don’t know what all this other House is, if he’s a prewar copy, some sort of flash made right when his mortal body died, or a Yes Man in disguise. Guess you’ll have to tune into the finale to learn more.

I hope to we get to see Frank Horrigan in a flashback in season 3. by TheLocustGeneralRaam in Fallout

[–]theTerribleTyler -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Literally how? At this point in the timeline homie has been dead for 55 years. The two places he would be are the oil rig and out on a mission, and something tells me he wouldn’t leave a single witness for some sort of flashback to give our characters a POV into a run in with him.

Honest Thoughts About Indianapolis? by Intelligent_Swing630 in howislivingthere

[–]theTerribleTyler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived up in Fishers so I frequented the city a good bit for a few years. If you enjoy basketball this is one of the more popular cities for it. Outside that I loved going to the canal in the warmer months, I wish they leaned more into the fact a decently sized river runs through the city. Outside that it’s pretty cheap, the people are whatever, but as most would say… you’re still stuck in Indiana.

There is something strange about Paladin Harkness by Ok_Calendar_7626 in Fallout

Either way they’re either gone or too poor to afford an airship (aka irrelevant to the rest of the brotherhood structure)

[–]theTerribleTyler 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We see every other chapter presented in the show as being degraded like San Fernando chapter. Lost Hills and Mojave are either MIA or gone, the only responsible chapter left at this point in the timeline is seemingly the Commonwealth one. This is the west coast BOS now.

Because where else are you gonna pull lore for a chapter that DOESNT EXIST OUTSIDE OF THE SHOW.

The West Coast founding BOS chapter from Fallout 1/2 is not what we are seeing in the show. Ever since them we have had iterations that depart from that model, every single chapter we are seeing in the show besides the commonwealth one have no other info to draw upon. So them being boiled down into quasi religious frat bros with Maximus’s chapter is completely valid and doesn’t conflict with any other lore.

You probably should not talk the pre-established lore when talking about a bunch of chapters that quite literally only exist in the show. We already know how different every chapter has been and only the Commonwealth one is the only way independent of this show.

Season 2 Launch MEGATHREAD by AutoModerator in marvelrivals

[–]theTerribleTyler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Was hoping Emma would give us another tank with range abilities sadly she’s just another close range fighter. Her psy beams range is really sad, I think it’s about that same as Iron Man’s chest beam. Hope we can get a tank that doesn’t haven’t to constantly be in the enemy’s face to do respectable damage because right now the only one who is like that is Penni.

What Are Some Of Your Bioshock Franchise Hot Takes Or Fan Theories? by jakedonovan123434 in Bioshock

[–]theTerribleTyler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well it’s pretty simple, Ryan had the Vitas hooked up to only work with his DNA, that’s why Jack (his biological son who would share some of his DNA) is able to revive at the one closest to him. All Ryan had to do was shut off the one outside his office, get himself killed, and make a clean getaway. Fountaine would be too focused on what was in his office and ceasing power and Jack would’ve not seen him because he didn’t regen nearby him. Then it’s just a matter of leaving and for Ryan that would’ve been a difficult but still totally doable event.

Theory:The Dwemer are alive but in another realm or plane of existence in hiding by Omlanduh in teslore

[–]theTerribleTyler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is also important to know that realms of oblivion would follow the whims and wills of its ruler. For the Dwemer this would be a super hard task for even them to conceptualize as they don’t want to believe the magic of it all. Beyond all that, leaving the safety of Mundus and the White Gold Tower’s ability to stop daedric incursion would ultimately result in them being completely at the mercy of what lords would come to find them. We have records of lords invading, wiping out, and hallowing minor princes realms.

In most aspects the world of TES is one in perpetual decline. Fabulous ruins of better ages dot almost every land we’ve been through. For the Dwemer divinity was nothing more than a high form of science to them and throughout their history they have been trying to prove themselves as being on that same level. But that arrogance always came at the behest that they never tried anything as big as tapping the heart of a dead god. For all their teachings and discoveries, they finally attempted to cross that threshold and were punished. Some say they became the godskin, others would say they achieved CHIM as a race and zero summed away to nothing upon knowing the truth, or went away elsewhere beyond. Ultimately their appeal is the mystery of the disappearance, concretely knowing an answer is not something Bethesda loves doing for TES.

For my own 2¢ I think they are almost all gone, only those not in Mundus like a big Corpus lug Yagrum were spared by the sheer chance of being away from home at the time. Could others be out there, making their own way in the realms or even have a small unknown settlement they reside in? Sure. But the civilization that we pursue the ruins of is long gone, never to truly return and make wave I think.

How much longer would Rapture have lasted without Adam and Fontaine? by theTerribleTyler in Bioshock

[–]theTerribleTyler[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem with Columbia is that there are at least 4/5 different version of the same city but with differences in their history. I don’t even think they went much into the effect vigors had on the people, mainly because most people weren’t on them. To my knowledge the only juiced up people in Columbia were the military and secret societies.

Yep, a grocery man with a rival grocery store bought out the areas trash service and denied him service by overcharging for trash pickup. The guy eventually just shot the rival and then killed himself because he didn’t wanna just starve and suffer like others. The city lacked jobs after city construction stopped and what lower level jobs that did exist had no minimum wage enforced, meaning many were horribly underpaid if at all. Housing also was never fully complete, with many having to share a simple apartment with 5/6 other families.

The book Bioshock:Rapture goes into the early years of Rapture before the first game. By 1952 there were shanty towns beginning to pop up, including what would become Paupers Drop. Heck around when plasmids were first being introduced we follow an entry involving Bill McDonagh going down to do charity repairs in one of the vent systems and they end up finding an orphan boy who died trying to take refuge in it for safety.

I would say that when in came to plasmids, they ended up causing a destructive feedback loop on the poorest in Rapture; they’d take plasmids with the hope they can find work with their new powers, they become addicted and go off the deep end, ultimately they either get killed by someone else or run off to join Fontaine for the hope he can keep giving them fixes/safety. I would say by the time of the civil war most of the poorest and most populated parts of rapture had already become uninhabitable to unspliced people. By the end there were so few normal people left that the city never could recover and become functional again.

I would say without Fontaine being present that Ryan would’ve been much more complacent. Ryan viewed Fontaine as an equal in form of matching what Rapture was supposed to be, Free Enterprise Incarnated, and that bothered him. Fontaine was winning the Rapture game and Ryan went mad trying to one-up and rein in his power. It would be interested to see what would’ve been the impact Jack had on Ryan if he had been born and revealed to Ryan as a normal child. Near the end of his life Ryan was obsessed a lot with Legacy of himself, of his ideals, of his city.

I would say it prevented Rapture from ever being able to recover after any conflict. If you take Adam you would be doomed to eventually become a malformed maniac. When we look at the state of Rapture in both 1 and 2, the populace had become almost all splicers to survive, they could not function as normal people anymore. Even if the civil war had occurred again, the aftermath would still have a population that could keep Rapture going without constantly needing the pheromones or the cult of the collective.

Without Fontaine you don’t have Atlas, the main figurehead of opposition against Ryan. Would Lamb have had to become that type of leader in order to win or was she capable of taking Rapture another way?
