The trend has stopped for modern films, but tons of releases are retroactively showing how it could have been done. Games that capture the creative intent of great films really well like pretty much any of the Alien games from the last decade, those terminator and robocop ones, even Dead by Daylight directly invokes specific director’s visions on characters, scenes, and even campy acting.

All of which are not rushed and who’s scope have appropriately matched their budget.

Well, that’s just good IT job security, let’s be honest.

Start here. Also look up quantum foam, fundamental particles, and “the other side of spinning black holes.” Have fun!

Today’s cutting-edge theory—quantum gravity—suggests that even space and time aren’t fundamental. They emerge from something deeper: pure information. This information exists in what physicists call a Platonic realm—a mathematical foundation more real than the physical universe we experience. It’s from this realm that space and time themselves emerge.

I can’t for the life of me find the term, but after going turbo-tism about researching the origins behind Three Body Problem’s wacky physics (11-dimension manifold, dimensional unraveling, “Three-and-Three-Hundred-Thousand Syndrome,” etc.), I stumbled upon a video postulating that our universe exists to “prop up” this “real” universe. The term that sticks in my head is “corkboard universe” or “anchor universe” but Google finds nothing. Anyway…

The idea is that our universe, and it’s 3 dimensions across time, exists to clump things together in gravitational “hotspots” of spacetime. The matter and physics we experience is entirely a byproduct of quantum foam, that itself only creates matter on this side, isolating these 3 dimensions from an entire, larger, fuller universe on the other “side” of the quantum foam made of stuff we would most certainly not call matter, more like weird energy with effects we can’t predict or comprehend, all within a much larger dimensionality than our own 3D+T.

This theory is used to explain why String Theory can only postulate higher dimensions as occupying impossibly small spaces in particularly strong regions of spacetime, which are only strong because of the relatively vast swaths of interspersed vacuum between spacetime hotspots (galaxies, mostly, but ESPECIALLY black holes). It’s only the transition between low gravity and high gravity that gravity itself has any meaning, much like temperature. Those string universes that String Theory postulates, if real, may be the holes punched through the foam, pulling that real universe into ours at microscoping points. This “anchors” that universe in place, and likely results in some fundamental force on that side “keeping everything together,” so to speak. That universe may be the cause of most if not all fundamental forces and constants in our universe, like the speed of light.

So… Basically… We exist as the living scum on the nails holding the corkboard to the wall. If you like. I’m sure the art pinned to the other side is very pretty. I’d hate for it to be a calendar or something boring.

I’m no electrician, but my understanding is that the phase of 120v has two opposite polarities, given the way AC power works. By pairing up two powerlines that are out of phase, you’re getting 120v on the positive and 120v on the negative, which doubles the capacity along the parallel line. If you did this with a 110v half-line like the UK has, it increases the Amperage to an unsustainable level, while the US standard does not stress the line in the 240v configuration specifically because neither phase causes the other interference.

I normally don’t say this, but don’t trust my assessment. Google will be more accurate.

Ah, but can you phase-multiply 120v± into a 240v feed from the breaker? Checkmate, firestarter!

If you’re not pulling 120v AC from a 4.2v parallel lipo bank, are you even living life to it’s fullest?

I don’t think they even put that much thought into it. I really believe it was trial and error of “oh… That trashy headline got more clicks. More of that please!” And that was the end of the thought process.

You put more thought into their actions than they did, collectively.

Little did we know the death of journalistic integrity hinged on the loss of the thesaurus.

Wow… She much really like you if she didn’t claw your eyes out. My cat would have seen me as food if I did that frfr.

Are you out of your meeting? Internet strangers are dying to know!

I’ve come to understand that satire is a canary in the coal mine for a society. The minute it becomes indescernible from the facts, something has gone seriously awry with society at large.

Obligatory don’t drink murcury… That said, there are 2 types and one is biologically innert so like… If you WANT to feel dense pools of metal splash down through your guts like… You can. It does nothing beneficial to your body except maybe the chance to dislodge something? Go ahead and ask your doctor, I’m sure he would enjoy the laugh.

But… But… P-party of… Linc–HURL!!

Vance doesn’t have nearly the amount of support or trust he needs. He’s sucked Trumps coat tails for far too long and every failing of this admin is being reflected onto him as much as Mango Mussolini.

Look man, if John killed a giant one-eyed monster and sailed to where the dragons lived, I would happily call an epic journey a Johnenning.

IIRC Odyssey literally translates to “The Tale/Journey of Odysseus.”

Factorio feels way different even if it scratches the same itch. More structured with the grid system and lends itself to clean blueprint layouts for efficiency… Always more efficient… Always…

Yeah. We can return to our regularly scheduled programming when the country isn’t on fire. Besides, it’ll feature the ghost of Epstein, right? That’s plenty spooky.

Nah, tons of savvy, socially-awkward, successfuly ugly mugs exist. This guy’s just a tool.
