@StephanDLW Finally got around to seeing Detective Pikachu awhile back. I was also surprised with the movie. I missed my chance to see it in the theater, and ended up seeing Aladdin instead, but did grab the DVD when it was on sale a few weeks ago.
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
@NEStalgia Good thing you added "or other", otherwise I would have to repeat myself...
@BruceCM Haha, no offense my friend, but you can't sell something to the sales professional. The numbers are and will always be against the idea that there is nothing out there. Like others besides myself have already said, the amount of galaxies, stars and planets is of such a massive volume, that the number of possibilities is FAR too great for all of them to be zero. Just think about how many Earth-like planets we've already discovered in the last few decades, and how many solar systems similar to our own. And those are just a fraction of what is out there. Combine all that with not all life necessarily having to be carbon-based, and you've got almost ironclad proof that there will be some sort of life somewhere out there.
Will we ever meet them? Probably not, or at least probably not in the coming century (or two), but they're definitely out there.
@HobbitGamer Erm... remind me, if you would be so kind, on how exactly we got from Romulans and Klingons to Gilette? I'm confused...

@antdickens Yeah, I'm good now. I already wanted to tag you in a comment, but you beat me to it...
One thing that did kind of surprise me is the following: during the problematic bit, I logged out, removed cookies, and then I was suddenly having no problems at all, but once I logged back in, the problem returned.
Also weird that nobody else commented on it, made it feel like a real only the lonely problem...

@HobbitGamer
Noo !! 😡
I have never and will NEVER want to play that rated M game !
My thought about the world was based on my knowledge about Christianity and other religion. Added by ancient astronaut theory, i tried to describe if our Earth was used for a prison (based on Bible) due to some reasons and salvation promises (based on Bible too) was like a cover to hide the real reason why did the "God" (Alien in disguise) create us and put us on Earth. There was noting relationship between my theory with that rated M game even if you say that was similar. It was coincidentally same.
@ThanosReXXX - I believe that if Area 51 held some sort of important secret, something that by its very existence could potentially cause worldwide civil unrest, there would be technology present or deployed that could subdue a civilian army of any size. It’s scary to think about, but I do believe that. No idea what that weaponry would look like, but my guess would be weaponizing sound or light. Something designed for just such a scenario.
@ThanosReXXX
Oh, did you saw my post about DDR A20 song ? 😀
That Japanese text DDR A20 song 最小三倍完全数 (Saishou sanbai kanzensuu) if translated into English was mean The smallest 3-perfect number.
That is a song that goes back and forth between 4/4 time, 5/4 time, and 6/4 time.
4 × 5 × 6 = 120, which is the smallest 3-perfect number, also known as "hyakunijuuichi no mae"
DJ Technorch = Yutaka Yamashita (山下泰)
He was the same guy who made 888 on DDR Universe 3 XBOX 360.
Both 最小三倍完全数 and 888 are really damn hard songs. 😩
@Anti-Matter I did see it, but as I'm kinda hoping you'd know by now, I'm not really interested in DDR games, or any kind of dance game. I still think your high scores are impressive, but it's just not my kind of game, I'm afraid.

@bimmy-lee Well, I'd argue that if they'd have such a kind of a weapon stowed away there, then they'd used it already in any of their recent wars/altercations abroad, instead of wasting so much equipment and manpower, and not to mention tax dollars.
But regardless of that, other than a nuke, there's nothing on the market or in development right now, that could dispose of a million people all at once, without collateral damage, so that could only be used in areas far removed from your own stronghold or base.

Heh I got a new charging cable for my brother's old iPad (og gen 1) and it's quite fun to install whatever games it can run and comparing them with the same games in my more modern mini 4.
Hah, farming simulator 14 looks like the I'm playing the 3ds version, and Minecraft is like a super old version, so nostalgic.
@ThanosReXXX I'll look it up. I think I've heard of it.
@bimmy-lee I've heard of it, but suspect it's simply some kind of man made drone, perhaps from another nation. America would sooner admit to aliens than admit another human nation has better military tech.
@ThanosReXXX America doesn't get credit for my friends or family, my friends and family get credit despite being American.
@ThanosReXXX - Well, if a government’s concern is its people, ours should be very concerned. There’s a lot of us, and we have a lot of weaponry. The device I think would be in place to protect an area of utmost importance would not be a war time device, but rather something to subdue huge groups of people. Either stop them in their tracks, or convince them to turn around. They can’t go starting a war with us, and they can’t just chop us down with all the world watching the entire rest of the world at all times; but they can persuade us to change our minds using other brute tactics.
@HobbitGamer - Yep. Now you know to never come to a forum looking for conversation and knowledge. Forums are there for people who already know everything about something to gather and not say anything about that thing because they already all know it.
@ThanosReXXX A little of that previous comment was tongue-in-cheek, but it still surprises me sometimes how some people, though they've been given the education and tools to do so, amazingly fail at reading. I'll sometimes post a little blurb related to an article's tagline or something, but I do make an effort to read (or at least scan, depending on the subject) the text. The general exceptions here for articles that I do click into are reviews; if it's something I'm very interested in, I'll read the whole thing. If I'm mildly interested, I'll at least skip to the conclusion and read the rest of the review from there if it sounds like something I'd enjoy. I used to read almost every review here, but as things IRL have become busier....cough
Thanks for the glass link! I'll definitely have to look into picking one up and mixing my own Bacardi & Coke when my budget is a little more under control. The only rum that I believe I've had is Captain Morgan mixed with pineapple juice at a wedding I attended a couple of years ago.
I do drink, but not often. I consider it a rare treat now and again.
@bimmy-lee Oh yes, meat shields! Not only is it a classic scare response we're trained to recognize, but it's so funny how often we see it. Some people really do put self-preservation above their friends and significant others. XD The runners-up are the sprinters who try to barrel through the attraction without even taking in the sites, as well as the groups that come through in train formation.
A lot of these people just make it harder on themselves based on their own reactions. Open mouth, insert foot....
@StableInvadeel I didn't run across an actual Purrloin but saw the silhouette. I never pictured it standing on only two feet....The in-game sprite from BW 1/2 was always on all fours IIRC.
