Really bored of the scifi trope of characters trying to act as legal representatives in court systems they absolutely do not understand and getting upset when not everything is like the US legal system.

Okay, I don't think I've *ever* seen a videogame environment more mesmerizingly beautiful than Subnautica's brine river biome.

@mawr I don't know if you're predictable but I like you and your appreciation of cute things :)

@Felthry so it was just yolo units in an educational context? That sounds... bad.

@Felthry it's the kind of detail I don't often see paid attention to!

@Felthry 10^41 ergs?

(why the heck do astronomers traditionally use cgs)

@Leucrotta yeah! There's a ton of information out there on casting stuff. Things get a little harder if you have complex geometry (especially undercuts) but the process itself is really simple. smooth-on.com manufactures the materials.

The Burial is just incredible. Definitely listen if you like SOL or Articles of Secession.
