It is not unreasonable to assume that an X-wing kamikaze-ing at lightspeed into the Supremacy wouldn’t have done nearly the same dahmage.
i read every post that way. it often makes me angry and then i realize i just read it wrong.

Doubt the boss will get you that promotion when that sock is nasty as shit. More likely you’ll get fired first because he finds out you actually stole those socks.
oh, i don’t think Frink would ever fire me…
Check his tweets.

UPDATE! halfway done!
Her hair is too orange.
i am working on correcting all the colors, i will have a preview up just as soon as i find someone to tell me how to use MS Paint. should only take a few hours.
Disapproval of her is not support of Trump. Claiming they’re equally bad is, because it’s giving Trump waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much credit.
A logical alternative under your view is that I’m not giving her enough credit.
If that makes you feel better then ok.
I feel great saying they’re both bad options and that logically not being a defense of either.
Yeah but you’re not being logical if you think they’re both equally bad options.
no, its the same. i had to find a pair of socks this morning. it was dark, so i couldn’t tell what color the one was, and i was worried that maybe it was a bad color. The other one i knew was crusty and gross, because i stepped on a slug the night before when taking out the trash in my socks.
Yeah, you’re not fooling anyone with that excuse.
ALLOL
ok, you guys got me, i don’t read any posts.

can’t you just give paja a multipass on this one?
Is this some Plex thing?
probably

The other one i knew was crusty and gross, because i stepped on a slug the night before when taking out the trash in my socks. I just couldn’t decide which sock would be better. maybe i would get passed over for a promotion because i wore mismatched socks? obviously i chose the sock i knew had a good color, even if it had dead slug guts all over it.
Makes sense to me that a ship would need to accelerate to the proverbial 88mph to punch a hole through realspace in order to enter hyperspace. *shrug*
But 88mph is a normal speed, and it’s completely evident from TLJ, that the Supremacy was hit at a much greater speed than normal speed, and the ship was accelerating to lightspeed, which is a contradiction in terms.
So the only two options are 88mph and lightspeed? There’s nothing in-between?
No, there’s normal speed driven by normal engines with normal physical limits, and there’s lightspeed for which you need a hyperdrive. The former is normal motion in real space, while lightspeed is achieved in another dimension called hyperspace. The idea of achieving lightspeed or entering hyperspace by accelarating to an unphysically high speed in normal space is as preposterous to me as saying a man can fly by running really fast while flapping his arms.
Is it as preposterous as sound in space, fire in space, laser bolts instead of laser beams, every planet in the galaxy having breathable air and Earth-like gravity, an asteroid field having densely packed asteroids, an asteroid having Earth-like gravity, a million other things I can’t think of off the top of my head, oh and also the ability to lift objects with your mind?
Again it’s not about physical reality. It’s about internal logic. A concept can defy physical reality, but still be consistent within itself. Hyperspace kamikaze logically extends to hyperspace weapons, just like kamikaze with an airplane logically extends to projectile weapons like bullets, torpedo’s etc. Considering hyperspace weapons would trump any weapon in the GFFA except “Death Star tech” it doesn’t make sense, that we didn’t see such weapons used in the GFFA before, as hyperspace technology has been around for a very long time. TLJ thus breaks the GFFA’s internal logic.
sorry, but if we are going to continue to tell star wars stories, i sure hope they introduce new things like this. how you can claim this breaks internal logic is strange to me.
What terrible pizza places are giving you guys burnt pizza?
I said they don’t cook it long enough, not too long.
ok, but the post right before mine (Dek) said it is half burnt.
Isn’t the real complaint just that you don’t like the possibilities that this creates? arguing physics is just subterfuge. if its cool and works, it should be in star wars. You seem to agree it is cool, but you don’t think it works.
Rian didn’t go cowboy on this, enough people in the story group seemed to think they could make this work, so I for one have no worries about how future movies will deal with this. IE: it won’t be used all the time.

Apparently not in real life physics bud, and therefore never in fantasy movies if I already dislike them.
yeah, this is why we have speed limits on US highways, 88 mph can cause, … issues.

All food tastes the same.
It all tastes like pizza?
It all tastes like nothing.
are you being serious?
Is it just me who thought Birdman was a weak movie aside from the great performances and cinematography? Wasn’t bad by any measure but just not on the level of another flick from that year like Whiplash.
birdman wasn’t weak, but it wasn’t amazing (as a story). it was good. it was just basically crack for film industry people.
Possessed makes another succinct point!
What terrible pizza places are giving you guys burnt pizza?
I consider myself decently capable in the kitchen and by far professional pizza ovens turn out a greater percentage of quality pizza’s than my home oven.
Maybe I just have some quality local pizzerias.
I just ordered a pepperoni with mushrooms. That makes it healthy, right?
Next you should try it on a pizza

My heart gives it a B+ and my brain gives it a B-, so I guess my constituent movie-rating parts together land on a solid B.
So the other part doesn’t get a vote?
It abstains on this one.
I just realized you replied to the TLBT post. So your answer makes sense.
This time.
Next time let all members vote!
Did it just get weird in here?
I set up a big Plex system today and it was pretty cool and fun and now all my media is in one fancy-looking place. They even had backgrounds already in the system for my copies of Despecialized/Revisited.
Now I just need a dedicated media hard drive.
Plex can be quite nice sometimes. Honestly, I mostly use it for the Dora and paw patrol DVDs that my little girl likes to watch. Sure beats turning on the Blu-ray player 3 times a day.
Yeah coffee, that sounds like REALLY good news to me.
Must be on dialup.
I blame Obamacare
LoL
