RE: Book Reviews

<t>Well alright then, will do. Posted by: @pinback <br/>
I don't know if you will get much response and I have to admit I not read any book in about three years now.<br/>

My friend, I'm guilty of the same, so this has motivated me to start reading again. To be honest, I forgot how enjoyable it ...

Book Reviews

<t>Hello my friends I hope you are all well.<br/>
I'm writing book reviews these days, which is proving to be more labor-intensive than I anticipated. However, it's also quite informative and sometimes a lot of fun.<br/>
My question is this. Many of the books I review are sci-fi (big surprise there ...

RE: The Creator

Well, I like the music for one, lol.
On a serious note, it looks like a good action flick, and as long as it's not another Hollywood retread, or based on comic-book super-heroes, I'm interested.

RE: Freelancer + Stardew Valley = Precursor Universe

<t>Greetings @GoldSpark, nice to have you aboard.<br/>
I remember Freelancer quite fondly, though it had limitations, it was also a classic when it came to sims. The background story was plausible, heck the entire game was. <br/>
Stardew Valley on the other hand was a title I passed on. Don't get me ...

Is that some classic double speak from Nasa ?.

Why yes it is, and an excellent example at that. Basically all statements cancel each other out, and what NASA really said is...nothing.

Like D1, I'm not sure what to make of it or the general "openness" about UFOs these days. My own opinion is that if any govt had actual 100% proof of aliens...they would be scared shitless as the ...

Yes D1 Publishers do love the you own nothing model, but I don't.<br/>

RE: space artillery

<t>@pinback <br/>
Those railguns would be even more effective in space. And you are correct, your targeting computers need to be up to snuff. (Basically it's a calculation of the trajectory of the target and the projectile' s speed. You then determine where to fire your railgun at. Depending on the ...

RE: space artillery

<t>As you guessed, it's the recoil that is your primary concern. While ammo needs oxygen, it's self contained, meaning a gun would fire in space...but the recoil has to be addressed.<br/>
So while you can technically do it, would it be worth the investment of a designing a platform that synchronized ...
