Re: Need some help/advice with google accountz

Can't help you with remembering the password, sorry. You have to remember something about Google. You're their product, not their customer. They sell ad space to advertisers, you're the captive audience they sell too. If you're anonymous they can't monetize you and sell you to advertisers. That's wh...

Re: Star Wars Episode VII to open Dec. 18, 2015

Trailers lie.

I wouldn't list Super 8 in my directing credits. I hated that movie.

JJ himself has admitted he went way overboard with the lens flares in 2009 Trek.

Re: Gravity

Even in Kerbal Space Program the distances depicted would be ridiculously tiny. I enjoyed it, as disaster porn. That's what it is. It's straight up disaster porn in space. That and Sandra Bullock in her skivvies in two points and she's still a very good looking woman. I like Clooney, not even Batman...

Re: Random hypothetical

In terms of resources, I don't see why you couldn't just go out and take what's lying around. For example the UK would struggle to feed itself... but it wouldn't be hard to go over to France and take over a bunch of their farmland. We've got ships, we've got farm equipment, and we've got the capaci...

Re: Random hypothetical

We have raw materials, but that's not the important part. Well lets look at what you're after, short term could we support out current way of life? No. Short term could we keep everyone alive? No. Long term could we rebuild? Yes. Here's the problem, we don't grow our food where we live. Food is grow...

Re: Random hypothetical

80 million rather that 7 billion? The way I see it, you'd be eating each other with in a year. My country is self sufficient in food but not modern tech. It's the 350 million people most like me, who are where I live, and whom my family are part of the population. So yeah, I pick my country, sorry ...

Re: Random hypothetical

It's not a fun choice to be sure but in the end I'm not going to be responsible for ending seven billion sapient lives.

Yeah, and you know, Fox. They love to approve Sci-Fi shows to just cancel them immediately. It's like Rupert Murdoch can't get a stiffy if he hasn't canceled a SciFi show lately.

Re: Kerbal Space Program

I've chronicled some of my attempts to science it up in KSP.

Also, thanks to Scott Manley's aerodynamics tutorials after playing this game for more than 500 hours I finally managed to get a spaceplane into orbit.

One of the Borg ones I think. Endgame?
