  • But like… we eat a LOT of calories a day to stay alive as a whole body I can’t imagine dead bodies being enough to feed us unless the population is going down a LOT. (Like a human body has maybe 2 years worth of calories)

    I would say maybe less in a coma but those humans have fully developed bodies and muscles and all, so should be consuming about the same.

    And yeah, extra processing power makes more sense than battery.

    Boy should I not rewatch those movies…

    “What do you mean they use them as batteries do you know how inefficient that is?” “Wait they’re growing the WHOLE BODY, MUSCLE AN ALL? How? And… For what? To jack a single neuron signal? That’s like 150 milivolts.” “Where the fuck are they even getting the goop? I’m sure if they’re advanced enough to harvest any energy from humans they could get WAY MORE from that goo on its own.”


  • It’s fairly solid. You get to divine status so you can be a swarm, necromancer, or demon as far as evil goes (technically there’s also devil but that one’s… weirder to get to) and I guess Archon kinda comes off “evil” in that it doesn’t give a shit about anything other than “law”

    Edit: forgot to mention the same studio also made WH40k: Rogue Trader and that’s also got plenty of evil options





  • Yeah, waves add. Which, well they add from the center which looks weird and bumpy. What’s more amazing is how good our ears are at picking out differences (it’s like 100x more sensitive to differences than other senses) so it can tell what all those individual waves would be so we can still hear the guitar vs drums vs bass vs vocals when it’s all one wave combined.








  • Fair, I suppose I understand the idea but like… idk I can think of MANY reasons (patent bullshit, could be useful, or prove to be cheaper, or developed further into something better) why having something similar to an already existing process is still good. Look at Sodium batteries potentially now being 10% of the cost of lithium ones, even if they’re a similar but generally worse storage technology. I don’t think it should be a requirement that a new process or discovery have an inherent reason/advantage. Shit like that is how we end up with leaded gasoline.
