I’ll vote for you in the “most likely to get the joke one panel before the end” category at the award ceremony.

I would bet the entirety of my yearly pay that it was absolutely, 100% a joke and they have a perfectly healthy relationship.
We truly live in a society

It knows what it is, and nobody in it is under some illusion that they’re making some masterpiece of cinema. That is not at all a criticism or even backhanded compliment. I like when the actors have fun with the things they’re working on. I mean, who doesn’t love seen behind the scenes of Ian Mckellen slapping a dummy of Sean Aston around.
It’s fun, it’s ridiculous, and it leans into it a bit.
Plus they came up with the Thanos Weakness a long time before the avengers fans.

Shit, imma need that title…
I can’t for the life of me remember which book that was…
Well, shit.
If you remember, let us know! I’m a huge book nerd that (clearly) loves sci-fi, and that sounds pretty neat.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I feel like it was on purposeEnglish0·4 days agoMatter=energy=matter.
If you can replicate matter with energy, you can turn matter into energy.
First you use a little wall power or even solar power, replicate some chargeable power cells, and then hey look you’ve got some portable replicating that will work without an obvious power source.
And as long as you have enough matter on hand to convert to energy, you have enough power to replicate things until we replicate space tech like deflector dishes and bussard collectors to soak in all that tasty hydrogen that’s just laying around all over the universe.
Jaysus, Keiko, it’s like you don’t even listen to me when we’re having dinner…
back to the pattern buffer for you I guess…
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I feel like it was on purposeEnglish0·4 days agoFirst thing anyone with matter replicators needs to do is IMMEDIATELY replicate 100 replicators and send them to enough countries that there’s no WAY for any corporation or rich fuck to quash it and maintain dominance.
Replicators would immediately destroy any economic system because no economic system would be needed when everything you can think of is a button press away.
Honestly any version of replicators…
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Memes@sopuli.xyz•Would you rather unionize or buy some videogames?English0·6 days agoMy last employee orientation really didn’t like me saying to the group of 10 or so “anti-union speeches should be just as illegal as insinuating we aren’t allowed to discuss wages”
And also I have called a new employee a fucking idiot for saying “guys we aren’t supposed to talk about wages” when the topic came up one day and “I’m gonna get a manager” when the discussion continued.

I get tortured in a mind prison for decades, and I’m expected to show up for work the next day…

Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto World News@lemmy.world•The world's superyachts are getting bigger and bigger. Business is booming, the luxury yacht-industry says. English10·25 days agoJust a thought experiment, how sink-proof are these things?
If someone were to build a homemade submarine with a drill, how many holes would one have to theoretically drill to make a yatch sink?
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Games@lemmy.world•Microsoft cancel Perfect Dark reboot and shut the developers down in the name of "continued success"English0·26 days agoWell, you’re certainly entitled to your (wrong) opinion!
Lol it’s not for everyone, especially if you started out with goldeneye. A lot of people I play with don’t have the same appreciation for it, and that’s okay.
And yeah, it’s so cheesy, it makes people spontaneously develop lactose intolerance.
But much like the movie Evolution, I don’t love it because it’s groundbreaking and iconic to its genre. It’s fun for me.
And then if you don’t have a/c, you get blessed with DoT reducing to only -1hp/min instead of -1hp/sec.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Tech firms suggested placing trackers under offenders’ skin at meeting with UK justice secretaryEnglish0·27 days agoWhy not just tattoo a number on their arm?
I’m sure there’s no possibility that subdermal trackers would ever be used in shitty ways.
At least my parents church has the decency to give first time visitors a free 6oz cup of coffee.
I decided a long time ago that if I ever walk in and don’t recognize anyone, and someone thinks I’m a visitor who didn’t grow up there, I’m going to start quoting Bible verses about how selling shit inside the church is wrong and I would be channeling the righteous anger of Jesus himself if I flipped all their tables and whipped them.
Unfortunately despite the fact that I have been there twice in 10 years, people still recognize me.
Look, if you didn’t want people watching you, then why run lines in a public place?
And will you not also be center of attention during the performance said lines are for?
I suppose a birthday is aa good a place as any to test your public speaking…
And then you bolt awake, with adrenaline now surging, only to be staring at your wall and it’s 4am so you definitely won’t be feeling rested when your alarm goes off.
Local city is doing fireworks at 10pm.
I’m too old for this shit, just don’t wake me up.
Hey now, that’s a misrepresentation of both the US and China.
China had way nicer locomotives in 96. It wasn’t 1896.
And in the US, that guy would have either been replaced by a machine, or replaced by someone younger who won’t be expecting the seniority and pay raises that being there for over 20 years usually gets you.
