    Presumably because it gives them time to do a decent translation job.

    What. That has to be the dumbest piece of anti-science to ever show up in Star Trek, and that says a LOT.

    Enterprise also just wasn't very good, and followed a show that also wasn't very good. It had nothing to do with being diffrent. It was more traditionally Trek than Voyager, but also more maligned. And Voyager was more traditionally Trek than Deep Space 9, which is fairly popular(Sisko is best captain).

    Wow. Optibotimus is hardcore.

    It is more the idea of the Transformers having inanimate vehicles. Like, I expect EVERYTHING to be a robot, because that's how they've treated it with only a few notable exceptions(mostly starships, except when their role is filled by Astrotrain and Sky Lynx instead). I don't have this hangup with Transformers riding Transformers(also the title of my racy fanfic), even though that's objectively sillier. I'm just going to tell myself that his motorbike is actually a lesser mechanical life form, and keep repeating "he's riding a cybertronic horse" until I start believing it.

    Gotta be honest, Transformers with vehicles has always been kinda weird to me. ... I'mma tell myself that motorcycles are actually cybertronic pets.

    Sort of a super-advanced YF-12? That's fitting, given the real-world design influence.

    Looks like part Matchbox, part Takatoku, all mess.

    Yeah, the market for midrange KVM switches dried up. Or was actively killed to protect the high cost of "real business" switches.

    Best episodes of Voyager is surely damning with faint praise.

    A new Intel socket is ALWAYS coming soon, but right now AMD is wrecking Intel's face on all fronts. There's basically no world in which it makes sense to not get an AM4 board. It's not Sledgehammer time again, but it IS pretty awesome. I'm hoping Intel gets their crap together and starts being competitive again, but... maybe not too soon? Let AMD solidify their footing first.

    So probably just coincidence. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. But I'm glad it doesn't seem to be a case of "cool english word adds unintended meaning".

    See, it is ALREADY canon!

    In the end Unicron eats the SDF-1. ... Then dies because its protoculture reactor engine is something like a Matrix.
  15. JB0
    There's worse ways to spend a day.
  16. JB0
    Is there any known connection between the american Mayans and the protoculture, or is this just a case of using a "cool english word" without considering unintended implications?

    Does this mean Megatron is Robert E Lee?

    I admit to having a fondness for Ghost Protocol. It wasn't really great cinema, but I liked the premise of a spy movie where everything goes wrong and the gadgets are defective.

    Zombies.

    The shape of the box? *looks for an unboxing video* Okay, yeah, that is long enough it could be mistaken for a short rifle box, I GUESS. The giant purple truck painted on each side might be a counterindication, though. My assumption is it is buried under a ridiculous pile of holiday shipments.
  21. JB0
    Presumably the Old Republic didn't call itself that, and they're worried about audiences being confused.
  22. JB0
    Nope. I came in through the Playmates toyline/associated cartoon. I'm familiar with the comic, though. The B/W one AND the one based on the toys.
  23. JB0
    I give it six months before Intel starts explaining how there were never any plans to go to 10nm because it isn't physically possible, and just accuses everyone else of straight-up lying about their transistor sizes.
  24. JB0
    That logo sucks. I haven't really liked it since it was introduced, but this one sucks extra hard because that 5 doesn't look like it belongs(but rounding it would make it look like a second S). The rounded letters were explicitly designed to look good next to a 3.
  25. JB0
    You mean protoform-bearing.
