The Librarian from the Lexx will be missed :(

The series talks about three different types of "gravity", being down the well, which is being on a planet and experiencing mass attracting mass, spin gravity, which is created using the Coriolis effect of being stuck to the inside surface of a spinning project, and thrust gravity, being under acceleration of a ship.

For all practice purposes, thrust and well gravity are identical, aside from hearing the engines, you would not be able to tell the difference between 1g on earth and a ship under 1g of acceleration in a straight line. The whole point of the Epstein drive in the show is "We have such a powerful engine we can just keep accelerating", get places very fast, and live with a defined up and down.

Spin gravity is distinctly different as the rotation is detectable, and depending on the radius of the ship / station / rock, can cause a dizzying effect. Belters like to distinguish themselves because the are generally immune to effects of spin gravity.

All of these effects are quite real, and in my opinion the series does a great job of being scientifically accurate.

You know, this sounds like a fun daily thing to automate

Got my first skateboard 41 years ago, am as excited as I've ever been that I get to go skating today.

Love my job, happy with my situation, would just look forward to maybe retiring in five years.

Might make a wish list of what I'd do w the money

Growing up in a time where seeking mental health was heavily stigmatized, I haven't sought any professional help for this. "Man up" and "Tough it out" was the rule for anything short of broken bones.

You are not the first to suggest getting help, but are the first who's had similar experience.

I think it's time I "Man up" and admit I need help, thank you

Whole life I had a very hard time waking up. Early just wasn't for me.

Then I woke up to the house burning down around me, trapped in a basement.

Now I wake up between 5:30 and 6:00 am every morning without an alarm clock, in fight or flight mode, so I don't even need coffee.

Not a solution that's right for everyone.

Just started Talos Principle II and am really enjoying it.

Really love a good puzzle game and these are up there w Portal in my opinion

Ok, I'll bite. I've been a fan of the single player games since III.

As someone who learned programming and 3D graphics modding games, the series has always been special to me, and pretty directly lead to my career.

What makes these games special is that Rockstar develops their own in house game engine, and has the money and staff to take the time and do it right.

From what I've read and watched about this new engine, they are doing things so far beyond what any other company has invested in, that GTA VI is going to redefine what gaming can be.

While everyone else is on the Unity and Unreal band wagon, pumping out clones of systems everyone else is making, Rockstar is creating new low level technology to build a truly reactive, immersive environment.

Will they create a GTA Online that just milks money out of micro transactions? Sure, they will, be stupid not to.

But, I am honestly excited to see what kind of single player simulation of a living city they are able to produce with 13 years of development.

Did I buy the $100 premium version? No, I will never preorder a game again after Cyberpunk, but if the reviews are good I'll drop $100 dollars on a game that I'll easily play for 500 hours

The only new EA product I have any interest in is Mass Effect 5.

They fuck that up, and I just won't give them any more of my money.

I have quite the skill tree that I'm too old and broken to make use of.

Reborn with my knowledge of skateboarding? Yes please.

Don't know the details, but a baseball player was giving an interview, and at the last moment basically blind caught a ball about to wreck the interviewer.
