Make a scramble! It takes lots of ingredients, plus egg, but the egg is kinda on the side and largely irrelevant.

It’s all the ingredients that make the scramble worth it. Like life. It wouldn’t be great if everyone were… wait.. no..

Lots of flavors make the dish good. Yep that works.

Oh no no, it’s 10% of your gross income, my holy friend.

If you, on the inside and thus impacted by more gravity, which speeds up time (proven through ISS tests and general relativity) looked out, through gravity-based lensing, assuming you could even see more than a still image on the event horizon, and assuming it wasn’t warped beyond recognition, would time not be stopped for you? While you still saw yourself moving?

Sure, time would be stopped looking in, but since you are past the event horizon, why would stuff outside it continue to move for you? Your time moves differently.

I think a black hole would just be a mess for anyone anywhere near it, and I know we have no real solid understanding of how it works (because we definitely have no actual idea - we have never been remotely close to one ever, it’s all speculation) so..

So I’m faceblind, but really good with voices.

And she might be in other stuff, but I’ve not found it. I did find Lori petty in an episode of Star Trek, can’t even see her face for most of it.

Maybe because I’m not really into the “might as well be porn” genre of stuff (watched xena, Hercules, beast master, andromeda, and cleopatra 2525 as late night shit when I was a pre-teen, but I’m asexual and not into horny and never have been so I was into the storyline bad as it was), and thus unlikely to encounter her.

Of course, I have taste ;)

Plus lost in space (old and new), Star Trek, red dwarf, quantum leap, Babylon 5, sliders, Lexx, millennium, neverwhere…

I have 30tb of stuff on my Plex, mostly sci-fi/fantasy. And I’ve watched the majority of it because I have no life :)

The stuff on my Plex that doesn’t fit my genres wasn’t downloaded for me. But there isn’t much of that overall, maybe 500gb.

I was under the impression you’d never actually realize you were falling in because of the time dilation.

You would see everything around you slow down, while you seem to be going the normal speed, because gravity. As long as your body remained parallel to the hole itself so you didn’t get pulled to shreds.

I get that this shows the gravitational lensing and stuff but.. I’m having a hard time squaring that with time dilation. Would you actually see gravitational lensing from inside the lens?

I really never got into EverQuest. Maybe I’ll try again, but honestly at this point I’m sort of over social games. I played a lot of neverwinter when I was transitioning off wow, and it did the job, but I’ve not found any sort of mmo since that really makes me want to play.. because all I want to do most of the time is solo play and pug dungeons (always a disappointment).

I used to be a raid leader and main healer for the guilds’ clan (we had a group of iirc 6 casual guilds that shared forums and a vent server and would do stuff together like a super guild) and I miss doing that but… not enough to try to find it again I guess.

I desperately want to be into games like helldivers or other “major hit” social play games, but they are without fail not my style of game. So.. eh. I think that time in my life is just gone. Maybe when immersive VR is a major thing and there are mmos for it (ideally that don’t give me horrible motion sickness), that sounds pretty cool. But I won’t wait around with bated breath.

You can get a used ball lock/corny keg, a carbonation cap, a co2 cylinder, and a pressure regulator, and make it 5 gallons at a time if you want. No support for Israel involved :)

Bit pricy, the whole setup you need will probably run about $100-200 depending where you get it, but you can put damn near any liquid in it and make it carbonated if you want. Wine, juice, water, sugar water, flavored sugar water, milk if you feel bold (tho at that point just make kefir, that’s nice and bubbly), beer, liquor probably..

Actually I just looked at the price of a soda stream and this isn’t that pricy by comparison.. so there’s that.

I don’t have a soda stream, but I do have a carbonation cap for my 1/8 barrel homebrew kegs, and have used it to make “Italian soda” (carbonated water to which you add flavor syrup/puree in the glass).

Basically the same thing, just a lot bigger. I can’t fathom a reason to not want to use it if you like sparkling drinks, it’s a lot cheaper than buying soda water or whatever. Especially if you aren’t buying single use co2 charges and throwing them away after. I guess that would be my only real concern, personally. I hate those things. Such a small capacity makes them very wasteful, even if they technically/eventually get reused.

I very very rarely listen to anything posted anywhere, but I enjoyed this.

Sci-fi/fantasy is basically all I watch :)

Not the really old stuff; 90s-today mostly. That one just slipped through my memory cracks for a long long time, and my memories were far fonder than it deserved.

Bahahaha I got a friend to watch the first few episodes of that not too long ago, specifically because of the song. I hadn’t seen it since it was on late night tv.

It’s so much worse than I remember, like they were trying to shoot a porn but forgot the actual sex part.
