Two things can be bad.

Very true. And the more I learn about post-War plane development the more I see that a lack of field experience meant stupid designs and terrible planes

The US spent trillions of dollars over decades to do what the Ukrainians have done with some fancy remote controlled toys

Also, the restrictions of their medium have largely been removed. Time was a tv show had to fit into 42 minutes. And you needed to make enough episodes for syndication.

So you’d have an A plot which is something simple and a B plot which has the season arc plot and it would be short cuts and a lot of exposition.

Now you can make episodes almost as long as you want, and there’s no need for any consideration of syndication. So you get long establishing shots and not much actually happening in an episode.

They can be used for that, but there’s no evidence of wear on them from that usage and there’s simpler tools for that job

A scratchy couch, one of those crocheted blankets, a 20” CRT and an NES and it smells like stale cigarettes.

And all the wood paneling

I’m wondering if these have anything to do with the dodecahedron that they find in Roman areas in northern europe

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (6 children)

So Romans actually rolled for initiative?

I’ve found that everyone who is anyone is a waste of time
