  • I also do hope there is more to Ultron. "After eons of thought I think killing everyone was a bad idea" would be a lame turn. You'd think he'd have tried to create life again at some point.

  • For Byrdie we can just assume it's the one we met as a baby. We know Howard and Darcy, so we can fill in the blanks.

    For Storm I assume we're getting a version from X-Men 97, plus some Thor.

    I do agree it would be nice to get more episodes to give these characters more storyline.

  • And What If... it was nearly over.

    One more episode and that's supposedly the series finale. Of course What If... it wasn't?

  • I wonder if there is a specific reason that the Watcher feels a need to interfere. It sounds like he is just tired of watching people fail, but that still leaves a lot universes that need fixing.

  • I agree, I really enjoyed the unique premise, plus singing Ultron.

    I assume "The Hood" was meant to be Doom, but that's mostly leaning on the purple hood and hidden face.

  • I always figured bipedal was to make robots adapt to do things humans do where humans do things.

    So for a factory floor, bipedal might not make sense. But what about delivering packages to houses? Navigating a home to help someone or collect something? These types of robots are designed to be general purpose.

    If you own a factory or wearhouse, ideally you design them with robots in mind. Of course until you can do that something more generally purpose might be better.

  • Haha, that's actually why I used the phrase "Malaria control", which is also what the Foundation uses.

    I would not use the specific word "vaccine" when talking with Trump. I don't think Trump actually has an opinion on vaccines, but many of his supporters do.

    You just phrase it as "Malaria control" and then do whatever you want.

    We can actually probably watch this play out depending on the specific words Trump and RFK use in the next month or so.

  • Are those run by the same people or are you thinking of Morbotron.com?

  • Problem being, Trump's ear consistently gets re-bent by the last thing he heard.

    Which is why the trick is to bend the ear no one else is bending. Bring up a topic no one else is taking about and that most other ear benders don't care about.

    For example Malaria control is an area the Gates Foundation donates to. Generally speaking no one "pro Malaria" and no one in the US is focused on it as a wedge issue. So you talk to Trump about Malaria for an hour and get him to donate or otherwise help the Gates Foundation. It doesn't matter what the Foundation actually does after that. Trump gets to make a tweet about protecting the US from Malaria, sign a few bills and pretend to be a hero.

    Keep in mind without Trump this all would have happened anyway. He isn't adding any value. The money/help would have likely come anyway, this just ensures that Trump doesn't fuck it up. Essentially the pomp is required for a Trump presidency.

    As a bonus for Trump, if Malaria ever becomes a problem in the US he can blame the Gates Foundation. It will likely be his fault, but he has a scapegoat.

  • An highly religious elf out on their Rumspringa.

    Any long lived race will work, I just think elf is the funniest. And long lived so that the rumsprimga can last for the entire adventure/campaign.

  • "new PR" -> new personal record

  • I'm guessing Beck grows old because he stops taking care of himself and just lives via nanites. Of course if that's true he probably couldn't punch anyone.

  • Who watches the Watcher?

    I think it would have been helpful if we had seen Riri fail over and over again. If we could have watched it and felt the same despair as the Watcher.

  • Ridiculous. Excellent.

    That's a hero I want to see on the big screen.

  • We don't need a comedy, or a romance, or a drama, thriller, sitcom, etc. spin-off of Star Trek.

    That is exactly what I want to see. The Star Trek universe is one filled with such hope, and I want to see that in a day to day capacity.

    I think Lower Decks handled it perfectly and if the same crew can produce a live action show in a slightly different scenario then I'm in.

    Besides one show isn't going to kill Star Trek. Star Trek has some real stinkers out there (and a new one is coming in January).

  • Meat Grapes? Why doesn't it sound like that when I say it.

  • So the "other" thread links here, so I'm going to link to them. https://lemmy.world/post/23535522

    I think that thread would have been a much better thing to post. However this isn't some secret project, this is a single account that is obviously labeled, so this whole post is just a silly.

    YSK conspiracy theorists exist.

  • anyone who cares can find them pretty easily

    I care, I have found nothing similar to what you're discussing.

    anyone who reads this and then also reads the misinformation, will be able to see the connection

    I just read a post that said Wikipedia was the best website on the internet, was that the misinformation? Someone else donated, was that misinformation? People have shared a variety of thoughts around Wikipedia, most of them are positive, but some are negative.

    Negative doesn't mean wrong. Negative doesn't mean misinformation. It might be, but it isn't certain.
