I caught up on Daredevil: Born Again as well as the first season of The Punisher. Was impressed that the original main cast was retained over the last 10 years.

I tried the in-store demo and was blown away, but even after that short period I wasn’t sold over how isolated the entire experience is. The day may never arrive, but I can wait until these fit on a regular pair of glasses.

I believe they minted loonies with his portrait late last year.

That’s so cool, thank you. I never delved into Asimov before, but it’s sounds like I really should.

That’s a good point! SNW does have Pike cooking for some of his crew on occasion.

I want to know if sacrificing Yoshi for an extra jump to save Mario will be part of the conflict leading into the movie’s climax.

Never thought about it before, but is there science fiction with a premise where humans might someday forget how to cook because it’s no longer a part of the culture?

I have/am. Ended up purchasing through the province after the RadonEye device I ordered off of Amazon was giving me insane peak values of 834 Bq/m³.

I didn’t know what to start, so I opened up The Stars My Destination, by Alfred Bester.

I’m not too sure what I’m in for, but the prologue on jaunting/personal teleportation is interesting.

From the article:

Walk in the tulips

Please don’t walk in the tulips.

Who would have thought that a product called Funny Kitchen Home Radon Detector would be ineffective.

It’d be a crying shame if the students were required to complete the school year with physical books and a notebook.

Fascinating.

Flexplay is a trademark for a discontinued DVD-compatible optical video disc format with a time-limited (usually 48-hour) playback. They are often described as "self-destructing”, although the disc merely turns black or dark red and does not physically disintegrate.

Wow, TIL. I can’t imagine if this ever made its way to audio CDs.

I don’t suppose you’ve heard of Full Metal Alchemist or Avatar the Last Airbender (technically not anime)? To me those are staple titles of the medium.

I primarily visit job sites with an iPad and stylus for plan reviews, but writing in a notebook communicates to the other person, in a tangible way, that you are present and participating the discussion.

Didn’t know about the YouTube stuff—thanks!

I just finished the first movie with the kids this last weekend and they absolutely loved it. They’ll be ecstatic to hear that there’s more coming down the pipe!

If it can’t provide an all-day battery at launch, I can’t imagine how this device will fare even two years into its product cycle.

Rules:

1. Do not inform others when you are leaving to masturbate

2. Do not try to subvert rule one by mentioning rule one and then leaving.

How often did this happen before a first and second rule had to be put in place?
