Slow clap, Mr. Mulder. Slow clap.
The last horse has finally crossed the finish line. I suppose now the real question is…what are you going to do about it?
- Comment on Are you sure about that? 1 day ago:
Scully believed in the high level idea of the X-Files since nearly the very beginning. That’s why she stayed loyal to Mulder. Scully often doesn’t believe in specific theories pushed by Mulder in individual episodes, and she is often correct that his initial theory is wrong.

But the comment isn’t pointing you anywhere else. And the commenter didn’t make the thread. And the wallet is actually real.
- Comment on No it won’t 6 days ago:
550 cord is great, and people should have some in their vehicle, or a pack while traveling.
The cords on stuff like the wallet bother me though because even with the space reducing knot, it’s a comically small amount of cord that’s almost purely a fashion statement. A significant amount of 550 cord on a roll, spindle, or just in a ziplock bag is far more practical.
I’ve known some outdoorsy people who’ve made their own 550 bracelets, but when it comes to storebought ones it’s pretty much 100% people that never go in the woods wearing them in my experience.

I put the OP image in a reverse image search and found the product and brand in about ten seconds.
- Comment on No it won’t 6 days ago:
Why would a hailcorporate be reluctant to name the product? It feels a little Catch 22, because if they’d instantly named it that could also be interpreted as hailcorporate.

You went from like 0 to 100 on the antagonistic tone over someone saying they owned a wallet.

So this is interesting. Just weeks after Google’s campaign to promote Android as being more secure than iPhone, the smartphone battle has taken a sudden twist.

‘Architectcracy.’ Which is more or less, “rule by architects.”

I’m playing Caesar 3. I’m absolutely terrible at it because planning out the city is about following the esoteric rules of the game rather than logically laying the city out.

- Comment on A screenshot that is the old evidence of my first ever attempt at a game. 2 weeks ago:
I mostly made models and textures, I was never a one-person team. I made assets for a number of students in game dev programming and I worked on some gamejams. Quite a few games, but nothing beyond the scope of a limited project. Currently I just don’t have the time in between other things to go back to making assets.

This was built inside of Unity.

My Steam recents:
Everything that’s got a finishable campaign here I’ve completed, with the exception of MCC where I only played Halo CE and ODST to completion.

- Comment on New ‘Star Trek’ Movie In The Works At Paramount From Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley 4 weeks ago:
I could have sworn Discovery was connected with Bad Robot, but it looks like I was wrong.
It still has a “JJ Abrams sensibility” - frantic space combat, overly emotional characters, a lot of flashy but meaningless tech (the hologram communicators as an easy example) and visuals (the way the bridge was often shot). It was very much trying to be loud and new, while throwing in a lot of surface level references to try and give it some franchise credibility (this USS Discovery is a rejected Phase 2 concept design).
It all came together in a loud, unlikable soup that felt inauthentic to the franchise. There was some course correction later on, but too little, too late. Strange New Worlds went the right direction, while the Section 31 movie tripled down on all the worst aspects of Discovery.
In any case, I agree - the D&D movie was a lot of fun, and while I wouldn’t want a ST movie to strike that tone, I’m interested to see what they cook up.
I don’t want the Trek movie to have the DND movie tone either, but more like when that movie was made they understood the correct tone to match the franchise. It felt authentic to what DND players experience. If the Trek movie has the same care in figuring out what long time fans want, it will be good.
- Comment on New ‘Star Trek’ Movie In The Works At Paramount From Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley 4 weeks ago:
That’s good. The repercussions of that creative direction have really been hitting Trek.
While Discovery wasn’t in the Kelvinverse, the connection to Bad Robot productions probably gave it that similar style. The Section 31 movie wasn’t connected directly to Bad Robot as company, but it did share a writer.
Strange New Worlds has been a huge step in the right direction, though it came directly out of Discovery, making it kind of a prototype for modern live action Trek trying to be “gritty” and classic Trek at the same time. I think it has mostly succeeded, but now that it’s proven there’s an appetite away from Bad Robot era Trek, I hope the new series goes further.
While I hope whatever they make doesn’t share a tone with the new DND movie, I appreciate that the DND movie was obviously well versed in the setting and knew what fans were about. Applying that same mindset to Trek would be great.
- Comment on I finished all (current) main quest content for Death Trash 5 weeks ago:
I often agree with this, though for Death Trash given the slow pace of major updates I figured I’d just jump in. It only took me about 10 hours to beat the main content, and a few more hours poking around to feel finished with the game. This isn’t something like Zomboid with a big sandbox element to sink hours and hours into.

I’ll never get past the Dangerous Hunts games since some management somewhere at Cabela’s had to approve a hunting game with deep lore about a literal shapeshifting demon and chimpanzee supersoldiers.
