i think i've brought it up in this thread before but my dad's the guy who has to check off the boxes for NASA when third parties want to send NASA cargos into space and he's gotten an in-depth look at the Falcon 9 several times and, well, Musk clearly has the same weird unrealistic blind spots we've seen with Tesla when it comes to rockets as well.

Parallel Paraplegic posted:

my favorite part was one time my dad asked to see some particular diagnostic output from the onboard computer - for literally every other rocket ever made, this is a pretty simple process where you just wheel over a little cart with a terminal and some equipment on it, plug a thing in to the rocket and get your data. for the falcon 9, you can't do that. instead, all the rocket's systems are fed through a (possibly off-site) ~cloud~ server and checks are done using automated python scripts. nobody who was with my dad was authorized to just pull ad-hoc data about the rocket, only to run the scripts, so they had to call up some sysadmin to write them a new python script for it and wait for him to run the results down.

Lot of jokes about dicks, and the eating thereof, about the hot dog guy, which is of course fine and good but I am more stunned by the fact that there exists a person for whom the action of eating a hotdog is literally lifethreatening, and that he has in fact almost killed himself twice by accident. With hotdogs.

CD is actually pretty good and funny, Bee Movie thread was an all time great one and deserved to be in the goldmine but was robbed.
TVIV is way worst because its filled with people who don't seem to understand what goes on in the TV shows they are watching and occasionally do crazy theorizing that is more dumb than silly.

CD has pockets of great posts but it seems like everyone falls over each other trying to find the most obtuse possible interpretation of lovely mass market movies.

It's just that CD is the only forum we have for people who majored in one of the unemployable arts.

Like if we had an anthropology forum, or an art history forum, or a I guess anything else with either the words 'art' or 'history' in it forum, then they wouldn't stand out so much.

Nah, there are a bunch of threads for that stuff in Ask/Tell and they aren't nearly as pretentious.

Karl Marx being mentioned a lot in that thread is not really weird, to be fair. Director Neil Blomkamp's previous movie was Elysium, where the communist stuff was not even subtle.

Also CD taking every movie seriously is no different from the literature classes I took in universities where Britney Spears songs and Twilight novels are discussed together with Shakespeare and 18th-century novels.

On the other hand it's ridiculous for a thread about a pop sci-fi movie on an internet comedy website to have 48 mentions of Marx or Marxism on a single page

That's a funny post, but you know that SMG's interpretation isn't invalid, right? It's just incredibly unpopular. There's a difference.



Fair enough. I don't know if it's the fact that I didn't pay that much attention (because the movies were mostly fairly boring) or that they were just badly made movies that didn't communicate information clearly enough to the audience, but what you're saying bears basically no resemblance to what I remember about seeing those films. And I don't even post in CD. :shrug:

Literally everything you've suggested happens in the prequels does not. Look up a summary or rewatch them (no don't) or something because you have invented at least one new movie entirely out of your imagination.

Well, as FishBulb points out, that arbitrary cut-off exists largely so that we can know exactly who the creeps are, or, more particularly, who the degenerate poors are.

Like, if you're a high school drop-out who's been working and contributing to the family income since they were a teen, or come from a neighborhood where a higher proportion of the population is indigent or unemployed, or come from a neighborhood with a more ingrained culture of narcotic/alcohol abuse; you're likely not going to have the same perspective on what constitutes an "informed adult" as somebody who's had 12 solid years of consistent schooling and is now off to college so that they can get a "real job."

Of course, other than that, there are just unethical creeps.
