This is the most toxic local subreddit I've ever seen

Seriously every post I see is filled with hateful angry comments. It's like every jabronie who blasts their music from speakers in their backpack is subbed here, it's incredible

In Project Hail Mary (2026), Grace's classroom lessons mirror each other

Grace opens his lesson on soundwaves, >!the method by which the Eridians "see."!< His lesson on Erid is about light.

After dozens of hours, my (mostly) HUD free montage of takedown animations is done

Sort of a spiritual successor to this video post I made during covid, which Ubisoft was nice enough to comment on. I don't play much anymore, but Breakpoint still offers a really cool stealth experience, especially with difficulty traits like wound potential and minimal HUD set up.

Karen Gillan filmed a day of shooting on her ipad and it's honestly a really cool look into how something like Guardians of the Galaxy is filmed

During covid, Karen Gillan (Nebula) filmed a 30 minute kind of raw, "day in the life" vlog for her youtube channel, which detailed how a normal day of shooting for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 goes. Having watched it, I really liked how she took time to introduce all the supporting crew and put a spotlight on the support staff who make the movie happen. Really cool behind the scenes minidoc of sorts.

Fury: Hands, Blades and Bullets. Featuring a bunch of rare takedown animations

Been playing Breakpoint since 2019, and I always loved the takedown animations. I always thought Fury was a badass because of how brutal the karambit attacks were. After hundreds of hours I put this together. To borrow a quote from Halo: Reach: "[S]he may say she wants to win the war, but what she really wants is for the enemy to die."

The turning point for Adama; Boomer, Cain and Starbuck

*Spoilers obviously*

I'm late to this party but I just realized that in Resurrection Ship, Adama is doing the same thing the Cylons did to him and it definitely makes him reflect on his own hatred of them

&#x200B;

He's sending Starbuck on the same one way mission Boomer was sent on by her programming, and he's really not giving Kara any more choice than Boomer had. All Kara can do is wait to be "activated" and he knows that. He felt so betrayed by Boomer, but she was just a soldier on a mission.

&#x200B;

The whole episode he's been confronted by humanity's crimes: Cain's betrayal of her own civilians, Thorne's attempted rape of Sharon, the president's order to kill his superior. Is genocide by the Cylons really any different from humanity's behavior, given the chance?

&#x200B;

In the midst of this he calls Sharon a "she" instead of "it" for the first time. He makes the choice to call the killing off, because humanity can only be better if it makes a conscious effort to change. And only through deliberate effort can he let go of his hate and see people as people, even if they're artificial.

I love the continued Jeff Goldblum references from the devs

Last year it was his character from Independence Day, now it's the scientist from The Fly lol

It was so damn difficult to get this last year, but no regrets

Last January I was one of those schmucks lining up outside Microcenter at 4am. Went a few times, never got one. I wanted to grab one before the tariffs hiked prices into oblivion.

By March I had all but given up, but happened to need to grab wine near a Microcenter and stopped by. They had one Astral LC, back when you never saw these in stock anywhere.

The fabled unicorn was finally found. Now they're common enough, maybe because nobody wants to pay the ridiculous price. Can't blame them, but I don't regret it. She's mine xD

I was looking at ssd prices and out of curiosity I went to see how pc prices compared in the 90's. The Deskpro 5/60M, considered high end, but NOT the highest end, costing $9800 in 1993, or nearly $22000 in 2025 dollars. This New York Times article from 1993 walks us through setting up and using one, which was hilarious in an antiquated kinda way

So I had a rough year, lost some people close to me very suddenly, not a great time. I love PC's and decided to do some dumb retail therapy. Is the mobo expensive? Yup. Does it do anything a $300 mobi won't do? Not really. Does it have a stupid name? Absolutely. But I really liked how it looked, and rebuilding my system around it was a great distraction.
