I’ve been pretty critical of Acolyte. I hope people are keeping in mind the month or so and many pages of posts I defended Ahsoka before it came out. I’m not about bashing woke projects just because they’re infected with the mind virus. While I have a couple quibbles with Ahsoka, I’m still...

While it’s true Disney has not announced Acolyte’s official cancelation, that doesn’t mean much. They would never make an announcement that would deter people from watching what they are offering. That’s a silly supposition and a straw man argument. What we know is: a) Acolyte was delayed...

No. The analytics from Luminate and reporting from Variety are the industry standard, not self reporting intended to ward off angry shareholders. You have this entirely backward.

CIG releases stats to erkul for publication, so it is as official as CIG wants to be. And yes, those stats always change and will until beta. However, since it is CIG that told erkul to lock down some components as fixed and others not, it is worth looking at that. The fact you can upgrade the...

I’ll agree he’s a decent villain, but did you really think he compares with Grand Admiral Thrawn? I thought Thrawn was great in both Ahsoka and Rebels. In the latter he was down right creepy, he’s so smart. Also I thought Ray Stevenson’s Baylan Skoll was pretty full of awesome.

Viewership down second week in a row. From episode 4 to 5 viewing is down 11%. View: https://youtu.be/JmY7Ex5ty7U?si=MM5fZq-on1NpBidc

So recently revealed is that part of the reason Bob Iger cancelled Acolyte season 2, is that he and several execs were angry that Headlund lobbied strongly for $10M to shoot a single scene, and after shooting it, removed it from use. View: https://youtu.be/tgaZx8O474E?si=yvBG3WjQQ0HKaKZe

I am particularly sensitive to the issue of what politicians understand when it comes to energy production and space systems engineering, since these are my areas of expertise. The former has so many applications to everyone’s life that I personally find no excuse for politicians to not know a...

I mostly agree, but I would quibble that we can take measures that move us forward into an abundance era. Here in NJ, there is absolutely no way to adopt electric vehicles. That would triple our generated power requirements. If we had an able Governor, we’d be replacing all the coal burning...

I use a SMOK. Doesn’t make sense to me to pay five times more just to have something bigger and heavier in my pocket. I keep two with one on charge. If you’re into blowing clouds you need something more powerful, but I like this. Got me off cigars I’d been puffing for thirty plus years.

Yeah. Have a look. Much quieter than expected. Three of the five manned turrets have been upgraded to 4S3. The others are upgraded to pair of S5. The remote chin turret is downgraded to 4S3. 4S4 for all manned turrets would have made more sense. I think some kid just decided to change stuff...

Hey look, better to disagree than disrespect. I don’t have a problem with anyone calling a time out on themself, and I really think Naff and I were talking past each other. I can’t tell what he was trying to say about his dictionary definition and he certainly didn’t understand what I said...

The point is, the dictionary didn’t precise what ANY of the proposed injustices were, so it forms a mere tautology. The dictionary definition doesn’t actually say anything. It’s all well and good to say you’re for social justice, but if what that means is we need to support the medical...

From 70,000lbs to 90,000 lbs. That’s a big upgrade, especially for a plane that can supercruise.

I think what he was saying was that season 2 quickly approaches the events of Rogue One. They’re only planning the two seasons and it ends with the film.

This is about 25% power boost over the F22, so even if it weighs as much we should expect record breaking performance. I have not heard anything about the airframe, but I will note that we must be flying something close to the X47b, since US Navy paid for a spindle and gantry winder so Northrop...
