Superhero movies have been around forever. The fatigue is from reviewers being forced to take some of them seriously. Certain people take a special delight in stomping on comic book movies, because it drives engagement. Case in point, here’s what appears to be an objectively good movie coming out in a year with only one other superhero movie this year so far, and the headline includes a potshot about superhero fatigue. I haven’t seen Supergirl yet, but from the reviews I gather that is was a little slow and misogyny is alive and well. That’s it.

We will get Clayface in September, an R-rated bodyhorror film which isn’t really about superheroes, and Avengers Doomsday, which is admittedly a massive Superhero crossover film with dozens of characters from various films.

Four major comic book movies this year from two studios, only three of which feature superheroes, but we’re talking about fatigue. Is superhero-fatigue-fatigue a thing?

If Gosling is Danny Ketch, they could bring in Nic Cage, Gabriel Luna, maybe see if Sam Elliot wants a cameo, and definitely bring back Sacha Baron Cohen as Mephisto. He was the shining moment of Ironheart.

Right, but then it’s not really “without fuel.” It’s hopefully less fuel, and if you can run it on solar panels, it would be without resupply, but nuclear power could also provide long-term functionality. As always, the most fuel is spent getting things into orbit.

For me, the exciting bit is the magnetic radiation shielding. If we’re going to leave earth behind, radiation shielding is currently a significant missing piece of the puzzle.

Except right now, superconductors only work at very low temperatures, and keeping things at low temps in space requires energy.

If I press the brake, it should brake. ABS systems work well, but otherwise there should not be any logic built into not braking when I want to brake. Add all the automation into braking for me if there is an imminent collision detected. Extra braking is good. Less braking than I have asked for is bad.

Oh I get it completely, and I was banging my head against the wall looking for something that worked. Ultimately, some clean cable management and a few of those rubber cord grips were so much more functional than anything else I tried.

Also remember that you’ll need to automate those branching switches, and each one can add a bit of lag if they are digital.

As someone who briefly lived a similar dream, I wish someone had pointed out to me that you’re still going to have to get your old bones up to get the wired controllers for those older consoles. I’d just keep the old school composite switch accessible so you can plug in whatever you want to play while you’re grabbing the controllers and plugging in the cartridge. Then you just need an HDMI switcher, which could also be your surroud sound system (if you’re spending money anyway…)

I wonder what sort of lag that would add. Digital converters always seem to make Mario jump slower.

I’m glad they didn’t stick with the comics for Brave New World and have Red Hulk assassinate Abomination. I hope we get more rehabilitated Roth.

She-Hulk was fantastic. It captured the ridiculousness of the comics, balancing satire with action and some fairly decent CGI. It wasn’t perfect, and I’m not going to defend the twerking except to say that it made me laugh the first time I saw it because it was unexpected. Tim Roth was great, Madisynn and Wong could be its own series, and the red-pill incel cult was topical.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but you won’t convince me that a large percentage of the people stomping on the show are mad about being portrayed in the show. Some criticisms are valid, and I get why someone expecting an action adventure were disappointed to see a self-referential legal satire and dating drama that breaks the fourth wall. But there were too many people gleefully blaming the show’s shortcomings on “going woke” or “attacking conservative men.”

There are also a lot of critics who are simply tired of the oversaturated comic show markets, and torching the show was excellent for clicks and engagement (in large part due to the glee I just mentioned).

Royalties? Did they think there’s some descendants of an ancient Babylonian mathematician living large on the residuals?

Ok, but if you learned later that the guy was trafficking and raping women and children, and was selling them to other rich people for sex, that might color your perspective a bit? And if you looked back on that moment and said “I saw nothing strange or suspicious” I would think you were a liar.

Him, Epstein, and four girls who he claims were college aged. Epstein, the human trafficker and child rapist, and another middle aged man, having a party with four “college aged” girls.

But nothing weird or suspicious.

Oh man, I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt until I read the content of his email.

First he says that he didn’t see anything that would suggest sex crimes, then he says he met Jeffrey and “the girls” who were 4 young women introduced to him as students, and says they were very hospitable.

That feels like something we could crowd-source. I don’t need the space and tools to build two open source cars, but if we had ten people in the community that wanted them, it would make sense to rent the space and buy the tools.

I would definitely pay a premium for an open source car.

This is how you explain gerrymandering to kids.

I haven’t not heard of this movie, but I didn’t know it was in theaters and I have no idea what it’s about or if it’s worth the price of a ticket.

So whatever they put into marketing, the result is “vaguely aware a movie exists.”

I was hoping for a decentralized version of discord ever since they started requiring phone numbers.

Collinsworth throwing shit at the only guy having a great game.
