Jeez that brings back some memories. I think the only scene I can remember is a bunch of people the bad guy made sit on an ice planet (?) to weave a net to cover the entire surface.

tigeruppercut@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident RatesEnglish3·5 days agoYeah I mean I’ve been commuting 2 hrs a day in Japan for almost 10 years now-- you’d think I would’ve seen these brake lights by now

tigeruppercut@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How strong is fermented bean curd supposed to taste exactly?2·7 days agoI like natto but I never would’ve considered blue cheese as an analogous taste. It’s like beans but more earthy, and if textures are an issue for you it might be a little hard to take. Keep in mind that you don’t have to stir it up and get it really frothy like some people do though.
A lot of people eat it over rice but I like it just on a spoon. I usually add a bit of spicy mustard and a small bit of tare sauce (the natto packs are often sold with tiny packets of mustard and tare included).
historically liberals will side with fascists or try to entice fascist vote instead of trying to rally with leftists
Are there stats on this I can check out? Like numbers on documenting times a lib government in various countries was in power when a fascist movement gained ground, and then whether the ruling coalition decided to work to support or quash the movement.
At least one polygraph works, but it’s a sentient machine with an evil plan to destroy the world.
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where does technology come from in Star Wars?2·15 days agoI’m less familiar with old Trek (TOS), so maybe it’s an unfair comparison, but the slapstick elements of percussive maintenance in SW seem wildly less serious than the types of repairs happening in say TNG. I can’t think of a time Geordi had an mechanical problem he couldn’t figure out and smacked it to get it working again.
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where does technology come from in Star Wars?3·15 days agoIt’s one thing to not understand your car alternator when you can call a tow truck, and quite another when you’re traveling light years in interplanetary space. Plus we do see things getting fixed, but it’s never in detail. In Star Trek you get plausible technobabble: “We can’t go to warp because all the relays are blown on the nacelles, and it’ll take at least 4 hours to replace them.” In SW you get “We can’t go to light speed for some undefined reason. Let’s watch Chewie moan angrily while smacking something with a wrench, then R2 shoves something in a hole and gets blown across the room via electric shock. And now the hyperdrive works.”
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where does technology come from in Star Wars?3·15 days agoI think I read somewhere that during the filming for the original trilogy scenes they read Chewie’s lines in English so the actors would know what they were reacting to. Not sure if it was the same for R2
I found a magnet link that seems to work, which incidentally had a pic from the scene I was talking about.
