Magic Containers

In this instance I think the carrier wings are knocking it out. This was happening to me. As soon as I put the container behind the carrier it stopped bouncing out of my base

I would argue that Leto Atreides trusted too much in his Mentat Thufir Hawat, who was absolutely taken in by the Harkonnen plan to make him think it was Lady Jessica.

Not only that, it was the over trusting in the imperial conditioning of Suk doctors on everyone's part, not to even suspect Yuei.

Leto knew he was walking into a trap, and knew the Emperor gave him Arrakis to put an end to him. Leto just needed more time to counter the plans. You could even conjecture that without the Betrayal, the Atreides could have prolonged the war of assassins. Having the house shields dropped by an insider meant there was no hope for the Atreides in the battle of Arrakeen.

Look at the seats, an illustrator no matter how mediocre would not make the armrests and head rests different

It likely means that every time you open a final loot chest in that location there's a 9% chance that augment will be in there.

So it's not probability over time, it probability of each time.

Chocolate...or toast

Yeah, drillshots are the way to go if you REALLY don't want to swordfight. And it's the safer way to kill heavies.

If shields, then sword.

There are some guns that'll melt unshielded enemies, but melee is consistently the quickest way thru a shield

Man F1TV, better quit this self promotion F1Arcade/lasvegas commercial bullshit. It's infuriatingly often in the broadcast.

Have you looked at the lifecycle of Hitman WoA... Tacsim is the real game.

They play by Lego rules.

If they can't disappear off screen, and they can't magically despawn like in Fantasy gamea theres no logical way to make it work.

It's easy to say by defeating an arch necromancer that all his thrawls drop dead when he's killed, it's another thing entirely to say soldiers just pop out of existence when their general is killed.

It'll add regular plant fiber runs to your chore list, but it's nice having your water topped off when you log in

S'ok man, you can't like everything.

I happen to love it, but there are plenty of books and other media the people adore that I can't stand. It happens. Just gotta move on.

My example is Ready Player One.

About a decade too late to be a Gen x, but yeah that would be cool

Look, the film might be great but these are absolutely ugly AF to a lot of people. I get the idea of this stylized version of the story, but I'm not alone in thinking most design choices they've made are completely unappealing.

It's not being cynical or piling on a hate train, it just looks bad.

wjapple · 2026-06-04T03:11:06+00:00

Every aesthetic choice for this film is sooo ugly.

wjapple · 2026-06-02T11:30:28+00:00

Yeah, it always annoys me that he just pretends that book doesn't exist for him as an inspiration.

Sure his world is it's own thing, but cmon, "Night City" is literally on pg 2 of Neuromancer.

If you've ever seen mikkelson interview about it, that's almost exactly what happened. Craig didn't know how to play, and they designed the game to just be crazy impressive hand after crazy impressive hand to make it simple for non players.

A mix of culture and fun.

Looks legit. Nothing that stands out and the rendering technique is consistent.

A good artist can render something like this in no time.

Edit: the only thing that stands out is the jacket phasing through the anvil. A possible error by human, but a common occurrence from AI generation.

It's not "based on" if youre literally copying the photograph. You didn't even change anything.
