why is she batgirl and not batwoman?

Batwoman is a separate character, and the character was active when Babs became Batgirl again.

It wasn't her choice, it was the writer's choice,

Actually, as I already said, it wasn't the writer's choice, it was the editor's choice, and the writer could go with it, or not be the writer.

I don't give a damn about anything out of universe or other characters.

Other people do care about out of universe things, and other characters, different people care about different things.

In regards to Oracle being able to walk, even the writer (Gail Simone) didn't like it. She only agreed to di it because DC said they'd get a different writer to do it if she didn't, and she felt she'd do a better job then anyone else willing to do it.

I remember for Gotham Knights she just trains her body till the point where she wasn't crippled anymore, and that shit was so ridiculous everyone clowned on that reason

In the comics she got an experimental cybernetic* implant, which sent the signals threw her spine.

*I don't think they use the term cybernetic as they wanted it to seem more realistic then say Cyborgs implants, but it's essentially what it was.

I forget people often think private greedy corporations and a public government entities are one and the same.

Ah, so it is a joke.

That's straight up capitalism. I thought you meant government politics.

You don't think capitalism and government politics have any connection to one another?

If Mr Bean can do it, you have no excuse.

Is the mcu Earth 199999999 or whatever? Did that one Spider-Man make a reference to No way Home?

Yes.

Anyway, this looks really good. And Rick and Morty didn't invent the citadel thing. I am pretty sure that Mr Fantastic did that years or even decades ago in the comics. Rick and Morty probably got the idea from that

I think Captain Britain did it first, although that's another Marvel character.

In the comics the "Reach" are an alien species, that create the Beetle Scarabs and use them in order to try and conquer the whole universe. If I were to guess who the main villain would be, or at least that would be the case before seeing the trailer. I'm guessing it's the head of Kord Industries. I don't recall who took over it in the comics after Ted Kord died.

go to the embassy

Cool, and then they say, "sorry you can't claim asylum at the embassy, so we can't help you". So now what?

"I'd like to live in jolly old England, please"

Cool, and then they say, "sorry you can't claim asylum at the consulate, so we can't help you". So now what?

If you can pay several thousand quid to get on a rickety boat with 150 other people, you can go to the consulate.

What exactly would be the point of going to the consulate?

And given how little information there is about it on the monolith that is the 2023 internet, I'm also starting to doubt that late 90s Rowling was aware of this 1600s German race riot and slipped the most obscure possible reference to it she could into a children's book.

Did anyone say she did?

Have any of you played the video game Pathfinder Kingmaker?

Its on sale now for around $7 on PlayStation store, so Im thinking of getting it. I heard its based on the same table RPG world.

I played the PC version, is was pretty good for a while, but it drags on way way to long. Also I've heard the Playstation version has major issues.

If you make an ability that does random damage between 2 and 5 inclusive called "Luminous bolt" and put it in a video game, there's no issue. If you want to specifically make it D&D and call it "Magic Missile", then you have to play by their rules. But by and large, if people are looking to play D&D online, they're congregating to something like Roll20 or Tabletop Simulator that never used VFX anyway, and if they're looking for an RPG video game, they're fine with either of "Officially licensed content" and "Similar mechanics but different enough to not violate the trademark".

The Pathfinder 2e implantation Foundry has a module to animate magic missile, and I'm pretty sure the D&D version does too. Also they are trying to argue magic missile is there's so it doesn't matter if you are using it in D&D.

Episode 5 of Sandman? The Netflix show base on Neil Gaiman's comic's? I'd recommend finishing it before talking about whether it's advancing the plot or not, unless I am mistaken which episode that was.

But just how many few employees does a software service like twitter even require?

Twitter is a social media company, not a software service, they need a ton of employees.

DetectivePony posted...

The employees that were let go and the majority that are threatening to leave were not important, mostly HR and whatnot.

Companies don't hire HR for no reason, they do so because HR is important.

I'm not a lifeguard, so I wouldn't save any of them. If somethings goes wrong I could fall in and now the lifeguards have five people to save, not four.

Blizzard said "Scottish people don't exist on our chart!"

Scottish people are still British. Maybe that'll change in future, but it hasn't yet.

Sooo basically guys in their early 20s can get away with child molestation if the child "consents" to it.

I'm not seeing where it says that. I mean surely going on the sex offenders register isn't the only punishment for such a crime?

I liked the episode, but think it should have been longer. Show what happened with the new blood plotline, Did it still happen? Did Todd get the serum but fail to get powers when he injected it? Did Todd's scientists fail to synthesis a serum at all? Also it'd have been nice to see She-Hulk chew him out after she changed the storyline, instead of cutting until he gets arrested.

I never had any issues with LatinX but I only ever saw it in writing so I've always been a little unclear how it works when you say it in Spanish

Who cares how you say it in Spanish when you are using it in English?
