Yeah, my Star Trek knowledge starts and ends with the movies (both the OG Trilogy and the two Abrams films), so most of these meme might as well be in Klingon. But everyone else is having so much fun that it's fun laugh along like I understand the jokes.
On a related note, if I wanted to get onto Star Trek, what series does everyone recommend starting with?
Nobody said you have to get excited about it
The title of the post is "Seriously. The fuck is wrong with you [for not caring about space]?"
Fascinating! It never would have occurred to me that the sentence was worded ambiguously until you pointed it out, but your interpretation is 100% valid. English is a strange language.
Yeah, 144hz makes a significant difference for competitive FPS games (especially fast paced ones like Overwatch), but I hardly notice a difference when playing single player or PvE oriented games.
Hell, on some games (e.g. Borderlands 3 and CP2077) I actually prefer to play on my 60hz monitor since a smooth 60hz is much more enjoyable IMO than an inconsistent 100-144hz experience. My computer is admittedly pretty old though.
Not necessarily.
A. They might have really liked the flavor and/or mechanics on the UA version and the homebrew version was different enough that it wasn't as interesting to them
B. OP might have taken long enough researching Mythic and it's alternatives that the player had time to reconsider their choice. The player might have been split between the two anyway
C. The player might have realized that running a homebrew/UA class was going to be a lot of extra work for themselves and/or the GM, so they decided to do something easier
Yeah, I considered including at least the Simarillion in the calculations, but the sales numbers for LoTR and the Hobbit are so staggeringly large that including his other works seemed pointless.
You raise a very good point about holding him responsible for all the works he inspired through. He invented a whole new sub-genre of fantasy, leading to hundreds of millions (if not billions) more books being printed.
And think of the movies! I wonder how many trees died to print scripts and build sets for 6 movies and a TV series
One could argue that Tolkien is an enemy to the trees. [Warning unverified sources and very rough maths lie below]
- The LOTR Trilogy has sold 150 million copies, and the Hobbit has sold 142 million source
- Each LOTR book has a (very rough) average of 430 pages, while the Hobbit has ~360. This totals to 115,620,000,000 pages printed
- The average tree creates ~20,000 sheets of paper source
This means Tolkien is responsible for the deaths of at least 5,781,000 trees. The Ents would not be happy
I personally really love my Babish Chef's knife. I generally avoid buying content creator merch, but all the reviews I read for the knife seemed overwhelming positive for the price point
100% agree. There is tons of delicious vegetarian/vegan food, but vegetarian/vegan substitutions of traditionally meat based dishes range from terrible to just okay.
Carb replacement dishes have the same problem. Spaghetti Squash is delicious when cooked as a vegetable, but throwing Ragu on it and pretending it is pasta is just sad.
Or even in Minecraft using water pumps/valves
