Donate to a non-profit organization, that's well audited and regulated, that's not a problem.

Donating to a for-profit organization is a huge problem. The incentives are all misaligned. And should not be encouraged.

Sunken City... it just drags on and on and on. I want to finish it, but every time the main mission gets interrupted by a side quest or I can't find the "trigger" for the obvious next step clue I lose the will to play the game.

Qubes is the gold standard

Network namespaces also work

Portmaster is a good gui for this approach

I think the common goal is not to sound smart, but add variety and diversity to the language, so it doesn't sound so boring.

example https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken

This gets really boring and repetitive

just have him login to your computer, then log him out, then add him as a family member, steam will see both use the same ip/computer, and bam, your good

This concludes all the Babylon 5 videos created.

Even with all the other content, its hard to beat the shadow and vorlon war arc in the show. Seasons 1-4 are absolute peak science fiction.

I feel a little exhausted, but very up to date.

The reason nobody listens to Zathras is because Zathras leaves out important information...

Comments and Thoughts

Zathras and the great machine transcend realities time and space. Zathras is probably the most important creature that exists.

The Power of Love is a little cheesy especially to solve quantum tunnel effects.

Since we are talking about parallel dimensions i wonder how that compares to third space, hyper space, and quantum space.

The joke about lost in space being something they couldnt say was a little oddly meta.

Thoughts and Comments

This feels super low budget, only a few actors in any scene, all cgi, no real sets.

The first story is introducing god and the devil, but its a weird fit since we have the vorlon and shadows in those relative positions, but this is going full god and devil in addition to vorlons and shadows. Felt forced

The second tale about the young prince, was nice, hopeful. Good to see sheradon returning to the station.

 

7/10, no notes

I've decided to do my first Babylon 5 rewatch!

Lets have a binge thread to talk about B5!

I would love to find a 4k remaster of the series, there are some great demo videos on youtube, but on the streaming sites I can only find 720p. If you have any trouble choosing which streaming service to use just search for fmhy and they will have a curated list of options.

TV shows were wild back then, 22 episodes per season, 45 minutes each; 1000 minutes per season!

Watch the film, don't read the plot synopsis!

Scifi, future, humanity themes

Excellent Film, well worth watching and thinking about.

7.5/10 on https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6499752/

 

Now that Borderlands has hit the "streaming" services in high quality, I've watched it.

It's reasonable for a second screen show at 2x speed in the background. It might even get some popularity over time.

Concord is very polished. But it still seems fairly contained, a bunch of heroes, a handful of maps. Where did the 8 years go?

Firewalk studios has 169 employees as far as i can tell.

They use unreal engine, no single player campaign

Where did the time go?

 

Linking directly to a very relevant time stamp.

Let's not tempt fate....

 

From the YouTube channel of spaceman, 34k. A very thoughtful analysis of the magic behind the movie.
