The cost is less from the design and more from the safety regulations. Best case scenario the state just starts making nuclear power plants, it's just not a good idea to mix profit incentive with nuclear.
Yeah, they had shifted for a Trademark strategy a few years before it happened. It was pretty clear they weren't interested in making it happen again, or had finally got pushback from the folks they donated to about it, or something. And if Disney decided to drop it, I don't think WB, with less than half the cash, will decide to try it.
Pretty hard to detect. But.... probably easier than finding the petunias I guess.
To be fair, the timeline fuckery all only started because that tome cop tried to prevent it. He's the reason she's a temporal disaster to begin with.
It depends on the story. Some genies were evil and imprisoned to stop dicking around, and would screw over anyone who they offered wishes to. Some were nice and imprisoned by nefarious folks to extort wishes from them. These ones would usually monkey paw assholes but not kind folks.
IIRC it is actually mostly from algea. A small amount from some fern-like plants. By the time trees existed, they were being broken down by bacteria.
I think I see the direction they wanted to go. Show that she's still obsessed and starting to fray at the edges, but then give her a redemption when she realizes she doesn't need a biological child when she has Ciri right there as a daughter. It's just that every show like this seeks to have to be CW'ed these days. It's a big reason why I had to drop Supernatural too. It worked really well for 5 seasons. But after that, the 3rd time the brothers fought about X and the 6th time they kept Y secret, I realized there was never going to be any development past this and had to step away. It's exhausting.
It's value is still great though because it costs nothing. Every time you draw it you may as well have just drew 3 cards, for absolutely nothing.
He was my fave until Capaldi. It's hard for me to rate them against each other, but they're both head and shoulders above the rest.
Exactly, it was (very relatively) cheap and quick. And they figured when, not if, it breaks, it will be again quick to repair. And it is interesting tech that could be useful down the line that they may figure is worth the cost in training alone.
Remake it from the ground up instead of using the busted Gearbox port, and I may be interested.
They did show them sweeping through a horrificly deadly funnel defended by relatively well covered rebels and toasting them with no issues is the very first scene of the movie. The assault on the Tantove IV was basically suicide, and they still mopped up like it was Tuesday. The double reveal, by both Leia and Tarkin, is more than sufficient to make the point, instead of a hamfisted scene earlier of Vader giving them orders not to kill and eliminating all the tension from the escape.
I just popped a pimple that's been bothering me for weeks on my penis FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!
IIRC, 195 was an apartment number or something and some roommates made /r/195 and to shitpost in, which inexplicably became super popular. Eventually the sub got overrun by some trolls or something, so there was an exodus to /r/196.
Is it stable, or "stable?" I thought the threshold was pretty close to the mass of our sun before Hawking radiation overtook the CBR and meant that it would eventually evaporate. I could see the moon being enough to not instantly explode, but I'm pretty confident it would eventually.
The hippocratic oath, in this case. Medicine is all about risk management, the worse the "disease," the more tolerant we are of side effects for the cure. Pregnancy and birth are still pretty traumatic events that, while much safer than they used to be, are still dangerous. Female BC just has to be less risky than that. Male BC on the other hand, has to be as low the risk for a man impregnating a woman, which is to say, almost zero. Pretty much any negative side effect is worse than that, so it's very difficult to pass. I would gladly take one with comparable side effects to female BC, but sometimes unflinching ethics are inconvenient. Better than the alternative, but still.
