It's only been one episode so far but I am already kind of scratching my head as to what extent the general populace is aware of the debris situation, considering pieces of considerable size can do stuff like "vaporize an entire lake on landing". Since the various secret services of the world seem to be on a gotta-catch-em-all mission you'd think they would offer significant and public blanket rewards for tipsters who identify and call in sightings, instead of letting someone admire a physics-shredding chunk of cosmic wibble-wobble in their backyard garden as a lawn ornament until it starts ressurecting the dead and turning people into catatonic grief batteries??? The in-media-res setup is much appreciated instead of the usual six episodes of foregrounding but they really need to start nailing stuff like this down soon or it just seems like the Orbital agency has no sense of urgency and is content to just let a whole ton of tragedies occur that they're waiting to mop up after the fact.

bagrada posted:I'm caught up with Taskmaster on YouTube (8 complete seasons) and I'm bummed out now, it was my go to for a while now. Last year I watched enough David Mitchell and Lee Mack Would I Lie to You clips that they started repeating. Any other shows like them to look for on YouTube? It's South Korean rather than from the UK, but episodes of "The Genius" are readily available with subtitles all over the place. It's got the same vibe of celebrities/comedians being asked to play games for points, except pretty much everyone on that show is ridiculously intelligent and the backstabbing and conning one another are some world-class entertainment?

muscles like this! posted:This week's Debris answered the question someone had earlier in the thread about touching alien stuff. They're able to detect/measure the alien energy and know what levels are safe for human contact and what needs hazmat suits. Nah, they showed from episode 1 that they were able to detect ??Lorentz?? radiation from extant pieces to see how intensely they messed with normal stuff. What I was wondering was if day-to-day people were looped in on this at all, and episode 2's "we're blaming it on a failed Russian experimental rocket" solves that question. This entire story is already as stupid as poo poo, sorry to any fans???
