I'm more interested in the new motorcycles.

Cinema and Movie Thread: flickering images
Uh, is it just me or does it look very CGI'd this time? Kinda scares me of how the rest of the movie will be like, if the CGI quality is already like this in the trailer...

Anime and Manga - How do you Live? Edition
Watched Chainsaw Man. Not bad, though the constant sexualization in anime kinda annoys the hell out of me. Maybe I'm too old for this stuff now? It just makes me think all the time.. bruh, don't you have anything better to worry about? It's really not that big a deal...

I lol'd. It could kinda work, I guess, but at present time I've never heard anyone ever talk like that.

Fallout tv show is the only time ever where I think less input from the "creators" is better. 😄 It's already at a bad start since everything we see so far is very much Fallout 4 inspired. If they do Bethsoft quality writing, I probably won't even last the first episode. 😄

Watched Asteroid City. In fact, I have no idea what exactly I watched. Nice pictures though.

Haven't checked the patch yet, but I see no reason why the PC version would need to be downgraded. Was running perfectly fine for me when I binged my last 70 hours playthrough.

New Scientific Discoveries, Part Vier
In any case, it's great they managed to lift off, separate, and flip the booster. Next launch shouldn't be too far away now.

I love how bad the video quality of the stream on Twitter is. We have super sharp videos from all the stuff before, but now that it's Twitter only, you can only see this pixelated mess.

Anime and Manga - How do you Live? Edition
I'm 3 episodes into the new Scott Pilgrim show and turns out it is quite different from the movie. Kinda thought it would just be some sort of "the movie but in longer" - but seems it's its own thing.

Still looks cheesy as hell. 😄

Watched s2ep1 of the new Invincible. Multiverse stuff again 🥲 I'm so tired of it. Multiverse is boring and predictable and just feels like lazy writing to me now.

I just use my regular guns. The trick is to only shoot once when they are about to die. This way they are knocked out but not killed.

What's the point of floating damage numbers if they are so big and so fast and so many that nobody is ever able to read them?

I wrote in hyperbole a bit, but generally east germany wasn't that big on religion. Obviously we had churches and stuff, but in our area that wasn't really something the people did. Also had no religious propaganda in school nor family, so basically we were growing up quite sheltered from it. Everything I know about Jesus & Friends is what I've learned about it on my own when I was much older. /Edit: Here's some numbers: Today, approx 70% of former west germany are members of a church, while in former east germany it is barely 24%. Quite the difference. /Edit2: One more fun fact. When I started reading the quran out of curiosity, I was initially blown away with how similar it is to the bible. Like, jeez, it's as if someone copied someone elses homework and just changed it up a little bit.
