Transporter_Room_3,

If I had to guess, the person got their panties so twisted and bunched up, they didn’t realize the video had already changed when they hit “submit comment” and posted it to the next one in queue.

I’ve had that happen once or twice while commenting on something, just without all the homophobia and anger.

Transporter_Room_3,

It wouldn’t surprise me.

Every time one of the channels I’m subbed to posts a video, the first 20 minutes or so of comments are mainly bots trying to catch thirsty nerds.

Oh, you think that disembodied voice looks sexy? Please, go on, I love tasting hearing about synesthesia.

Transporter_Room_3,

Okay so maybe I’m just a dum-dum, but did the article not actually say what the whole thing they’re talking about actually is?

To me it read as “Walmart was already tracking your app and website usage but NOW THEY’RE SELLING IT!” which… I mean I assumed anyone that uses their app and website was having their data harvested just like every other multi billion dollar corporation does… Walmart just decided to slap a new name on it.

By all means, please correct me because I feel like I missed a paragraph.

Transporter_Room_3,

That’s been working out so well so far.

The only way to keep them accountable while actually ensuring compliance is to burn them to the ground if they step out of line.

Transporter_Room_3,

Yes, and we can see how well not burning them to the ground is going.

Transporter_Room_3,

… Which was my original point…

Transporter_Room_3,

It’s still garbage, but you’re 100% correct about it being 1000x worse logged out, at least it’s like that for me.

I started getting a shitload of recommended videos based off an app I played for 5 minutes and deleted.

I never looked it up on youtube or google, and I didn’t even search for it in the play store, I just saw it listed as similar to a different game that I did look up.

And after a week of constantly telling them to stop recommending me these videos because I don’t like them, I’m still seeing them.

Again, played the app for a few minutes and deleted, have now spent more time telling youtube to stop showing it to me than I spent playing.

Transporter_Room_3,

Yeah, and the electric scooters may look dorky in a warzone but honestly, mobility, ease of charging (if you have the equipment anyway, soooooooo maybe not the best choice for ruZZian?) and if my choices were “large slowish apc that’s loud AF and draws attention for miles around” vs “speedy quiet stick with wheels” I know which one I’m taking.

Still needs a chicken wire cope cage though

Transporter_Room_3,

MURDERER, Daniel Perry.

Say it louder for the people in the back.

Transporter_Room_3,

Is it still a feminine urge if I’m a dude?

And can I bring my wife? She’d love the big creepy castle AND the queen-of-the-dead vibe.

Transporter_Room_3,

That’s why I have no opinion when people around me complain about Rings of Power. I haven’t seen it. I don’t plan on watching it any time soon, but also partly because I’m afraid I won’t like it.

And I don’t want to dislike something that’s lord of the rings, even if it’s just a poor adaptation.

Transporter_Room_3,

To give the illusion that fate was on their side.

I make a point not to kill my players unless they make a habit of doing dumb shit, or it’s “almost” happened a couple times already.

Especially if I get several good rolls or they get several bad rolls in a row.

The game should be fun for everyone, and if even one player goes home upset with the session I will have considered my night a failure as DM.

Not that I consider it a failing or even “bad” if someone else kills off their players. Everyone has different expectations from games and I’ve seen fantastic role playing of deaths before.

One player ripped their heart out of their own chest, chugging a health potion to stay alive long enough to place it in their spouse who had just died died, and another player healed the spouse.

They asked me if I would allow that and honestly it sounded cool enough that I was all for it.

Transporter_Room_3,

There’s a non-original quantum leap? Pass.

That’s like when someone was talking to me about how much they loved MacGyver, only to find out that someone made a reboot. And apparently it’s not great, but I haven’t seen it so I have no idea. I also have no desire to see it because you don’t improve upon perfection.

Also it’s great watching O’Neill (two Ls) put a teenage Teal’c in his place with a little humility in one episode. Some small paypack for future boxing workouts on base I guess. It’s always weird hearing Christopher judge speak normally instead of his Teal’c speech pattern.

Transporter_Room_3,

Stargate is hands-down my favorite show of all time… It ties with firefly, but firefly usually takes top spot because it’s short and sweet.

Seasons 1-3 are a little rough as with many shows that started out with serialization and all that, but seasons 3.5-6 are great, and seasons 6-10 are some of the best television I’ve ever seen.

They either learned from star trek, or just figured it out themselves that diplomatic and non action episodes can be just as riveting as action-packed explosion fests. Measure of a Man is first to come to mind for star trek. I’ll never skip that episode no matter how bored my wife gets.

The meme potential is endless. And there are so many inside jokes and references use in daily life that nobody else gets.

Transporter_Room_3,

Honestly I don’t watch seasons 1-3 often. I usually start at the end of season 3 or even up to halfway through season 4.

There are a few continuing stories from earlier seasons, especially the introduction of a few friendly species, but I feel like the recaps will give you enough to go on, and if you’re really curious you can read a plot synopsis.

I’m not aware of any sort of unofficial list of must-watch episodes and probably-skips, but a good place to start is the season 3 finale, and go from there.

Replicators (the earlier blockier version of those nanites) infect an Asgard ship (the small Grey aliens) and they come to earth for help. “you came to us because you weren’t dumb enough?” is a paraphrased line.

If you don’t care about spoilers I could go into a little more detail since it’s not quite a multi-part episode, but it does go directly from one to the next in short order.

The first three episodes of s4 are good, IMO. Episode 4 not so much but it does get referenced a lot in later episodes. When my wife and I watched, I gave her a summary of that episode, but she has a shorter attention span. It’s a dialogue-heavy episode that kick starts a vendetta for one character. Good if you like drama.

Transporter_Room_3,

The ascension thing comes back and gets more explained, Daniel dies multiple times (3 maybe?) but the last time is part of a multi-episode arc that shows what his ascension experience is like (this time anyway) and it’s more or less understood that he can’t die again and expect to come back, and he might not even be able to ascend again period (though I don’t believe either are expressly stated, just my take)

Farscape is a great show, and some of the characters even have regular roles in late seasons of sg1.

Transporter_Room_3,

Universe is a very different show.

It’s slower paced, it feels a little bit like they were trying to cash in on the “mysterious things happen” and “long continuous story that if you miss one or two episodes you might be completely Lost”, pun intended since it feels like that’s the energy they were going for, from Lost.

Personally, I liked it. It’s slower paced than Atlantis was, less action packed, and heavily focuses on character drama.

And also leaves a massive fucking cliffhanger to end the series, from my understanding. I haven’t finished it because I knew they canceled it without finishing the story.

I love Eureka, but poor decisions were made regarding the sg-1/eureka “rivalry”. Basically the funding and attention left Stargate and went to eureka. They should both have recieved the attention they deserved but that’s a whole other rant lmao

Transporter_Room_3,

I’m completely biased when recommending this show to people, I re-watch it at least once a year. Sometimes I take a few years off, but I’m in the middle of a rewatch now.

I watched it when it first ran, I was too young to really care about it in the first few seasons (good thing too since I might have lost interest) but by the time season 10 rolled out I was graduating and wanted the dvd set as a graduation present (which I never got)

If you’re looking for some kind of “deep” meaning in a show, or overarching message (beyond general team-work and helping each other gets the job done for everyone type stuff) in a show, I don’t personally think there is one, and would disappoint someone who wants one.

I like to think everything they talk about is pretty relevant even today. Politically they’re fairly neutral for US politics, though keep in mind it’s a show about a military team in a military base doing military things, so everything is pretty often making the military look good, or “just get rid of this damn red tape " on a few occasions, but they do a pretty good job of showing how absolutely wrong the military and government are, to the point where in real life the characters would all have been courtmartialled for disobeying idiotic military protocols and bad orders.

Daniel in particular can get preachy about doing the right thing no matter what, and O’Neill basically tells him " stop being so preachy” on a few occasions.

The pacing of the show picks up as the seasons go on, and it gets more action-filled in the latter half. They also start mixing a lot of philosophy type stuff in here and there. Less so on the later seasons.

Mild generalized plot ahead:

Season 5 is where they really start leaning toward continuing stories from earlier episodes. Also introduces a villain that will play major parts in seasons 6-8. One of the final episodes is a gut punch that introduces a new recurring character.

Season 6 introduces a villain that will start out small but eventually become galaxy-threatening, and continues into one of the post-series movies. Also expands on the second Stargate from Antarctica and how that got to be there.

Season 7 introduces an Ancient outpost, which leads them to what they need to get to Atlantis. Also Richard Dean Andersons less frequent appearance on the show.

Season 8 reintroduces the replicators as bad guys, and this time they’re not all blocky and insectoid. Also surprise return of a once-vanquished enemy. Actually like… 2 or 3 now that I think of it.

Season 9 introduces a new team leader (Ben browder, aka Chrichton from Farscape) and Claudia black (aeryn sun) is a recurring character that eventually becomes a full time member of the team. New villains introduced and shit hits the fan pretty quickly.

Season 10 is a futuristic holy crusade from evil energy aliens using humans to do their dirty work and subjugate another galaxy. A couple old villains pop up here and there but are usually smaller episode arcs or bottle episodes.

The show got canceled and the story never finished in the show run, but they had a few movies to try and wrap up the remaining plots that were supposed to take place over 1-3 more seasons.

If you want a good episode to start with, try season 4 episode 6 “window of opportunity”. It’s a Groundhog Day episode that has some pretty great comedic bits as well as, I think, a pretty good representation of sg1 as a whole. It’s got a little of everything.

If you want to skip to more modern style of TV that still feels early 00s, season 6 is a good place to start, but I’d recommend reading plot summaries for most of the earlier episodes if you do that. It’s time consuming but you won’t be lost.

If all that sounds unappealing… We’ll then I guess it’s not for you, but still give s4e06 a try just for gits and shiggles.

Transporter_Room_3,

I probably keep hitting on the action-y bits for the same reason I do when talking about star trek, modern audiences kind of expect shows with any sort of action to be SUPER action packed. My wife especially is guilty of this. The only slow type of show she likes are murder shows.

And honestly I’d say if you’re 15 minutes in and aren’t liking an episode, you can probably skip it in the first 4 or 5 seasons.

Transporter_Room_3,

Give me 750ft^2 and 5 acres of woods with enough sunny space for growing some food.

I’d be thrilled.

My wife’s best friend, however, has decided their 3500ft^2 2.5 floor + basement house on 3-4 acres with two sheds and a small barn (or xl shed?) isnt enough space for 2 dogs 3 cats and her and her husband.

They just bought this house last year.

I do not understand some people.

Transporter_Room_3,

Honestly a 40k fine for me might as well be life-ending. Possibly self-inflicted, depending on my mental state at the time.

Community service makes much more sense.

I’d make him do like 5 hours of CS for every year since the archeology site was inhabited, and 200 hours for every offence. The older the site, the more you have to work off. The more you deface, the more you work off.

I mean, those are just random numbers I pulled out of my ass but you get the idea.

Transporter_Room_3,

“so what are you in for?”

“I wrote my tag on an important wall. You?”

“I murdered my entire family when my wife overcooked my fish”

“I can tell we will be friends, we’re birds of a feather.”

Transporter_Room_3,

Tldr: build a hobbit hole

One of my friends grew up in a house his dad’s company built.

It has a super tiny, almost bungalow-sized building on the surface that’s basically a glorified sitting room for entertaining a few guests, and one bedroom.

Then behind door #2 is a staircase leading to the actual house, mostly underground.

If you look behind the fence that surrounds what appears to be a back yard, it’s about 3ft of roof sticking out of the ground.

I’m not an architect or engineer, so I just assumed there were technical reasons he didn’t want the house completely underground, cause that seems to me like it would be better to have it completely buried if you’re going for energy efficiency and things like that. Although now that I say that, I imagine you’d want some natural lighting. Maybe a good compromise? No idea.

Too bad we lost touch, because I’d love to ask his dad more questions about how it was designed and built. I remember the few times I was there it was always cool, but never cold in winter and never hot in summer.

Transporter_Room_3,

This particular house was on a decent sized hill in the middle of a large flat area. I think the sea would have to rise 750ft or the closest river would have to flood half a state for it to flood their house. It wouldn’t work in my area either. I live in a large valley.

It definitely requires tons of money to do. I wonder if they’ve made back the difference in savings yet?

People really underestimate what a couple trees can do when strategically placed. Or how drastic the temperature difference can be between flat lawn and cops of trees. They’re giant cellulose and lignen heat sinks.
