If they changed those, someone needs to rethink their 10/10.

RPi Awesomeness

@FAE Well, you're not going to get a perfect book in movie form movie.

Unionhawk

WHY IS THIS A THING WE ARE ACCEPTING

NO

I REFUSE

RPi Awesomeness

@Yuuki Okay, 8/10.

Yuuki

@RPiAwesomeness While this is a truth we need to realize, it is paradoxically not a truth we should accept.

RPi Awesomeness

@Yuuki They kept those, but the Fiona is a keeper of the children instead of the elderly, and Jonas' male friend (name is slipping my mind, it's late) is a drone pilot instead of an argicultarist.

Unionhawk

02:01

If we accept that "Hollywood just does what they want so let's just accept that", THEN THE TERRORISTS WIN

RPi Awesomeness

@Unionhawk I didn't like that part, I guess I worded my statement badly.

Unionhawk

YOU ARE FACILITATING TERRORIST VICTORY

...

I need to like, run in circles for 2 hours or something

what the hell

Yuuki

Yes, we need to realize that not all things in the book are going to make it into the movie and thus not fuss over the small things. But we can't accept that the movie will not match the book perfectly (or as close as it can) or we start smoothing over the big things.

RPi Awesomeness

I should have said NBD, it doesn't change much of the story. I didn't like it, it's just a side-thingy that provides little change to the story.

Unionhawk

I apologize to everyone involved

RPi Awesomeness

02:03

@Unionhawk Your apology is accepted.

FAE

@Unionhawk you seem very capslocky today

RPi Awesomeness

/totally-didn't-just-quote-the-movie

@FAE I've noticed that too, think he should have it checked out?

Unionhawk

I'm unmedicated atm, so the bouncing of my legs could probably power a city right now

holy crap

RPi Awesomeness

@Unionhawk Warning, running in circles for 2 hours is usually not healthy for you, as it can lead to extreme dizziness and possible lunacy

Unionhawk

Or like, destroy San Francisco

Ktash

02:05

For me, there are fundamental things wrong with making The Giver into a movie. It loses so much of its punch because the medium in which it is originally presented is arguably the best medium for it given its messages, the way in presents them, and how it toys with reader assumptions

Yuuki

@RPiAwesomeness The latter depends on whether or not it's a full moon.

Unionhawk

RPi Awesomeness

@Unionhawk Eh, go for something like Toledo. Gosh that place is awful.

Unionhawk

(get it? because earthquakes?)

RPi Awesomeness

@Ktash This is very true. Well worded

@Unionhawk Yup

@Unionhawk or, if you tap both legs, you can target two places at once. Good grief. You're a freaking bio-terrorist!

Unionhawk

02:08

Goddammit I will never understand how a goddamn stimulant calms me down.

It was explained to me once, by my psych-major ex, but I forgot.

Something about... brain... things.

And stuff

RPi Awesomeness

@Ktash I whole-heartedly agree. The Giver was good because of the way that the write wrote it, one cannot re-create her style in video form. However, this was a good visual interpretation of it. Yes, they could have improved some things. But I don't believe this is reason to dismiss the movie entirely.

FAE

@Unionhawk neurotransmitters are weird

Unionhawk

@FAE Indeed.

RPi Awesomeness

@FAE that they are

FAE

@Unionhawk that's basically the tl;dr for most brain meds

Unionhawk

02:10

Neuroscience is weird and confusing.

And we always compare the brain to whatever the prominent technology of the period is! (right now, the brain is a computer, as far as we analogize it)

Which is entirely not as in-depth and complex as the actual case, but it's a close approximation I guess sort of not really.

Ktash

@RPiAwesomeness The problem though is that there can't be a visual translation of it. The ideas presented in it and the way they are presented are meant to be read, not seen. For example, the colorblindness. The book plays on the concept that readers are assuming a colorful world, so when Jonas tries to describe red for the first time, you may not quite get it. That's intended to parallel the uptopia presented with the world he comes to see during the alegorical growing up he does with The Giver

RPi Awesomeness

I just realized, -fun is in the room descript...gosh-dangit.

Yuuki

@Unionhawk The brain is a rock!

Unionhawk

@Yuuki YOU'RE A ROCK

Yuuki

@Unionhawk OR MY BRAIN IS, AT LEAST.

RPi Awesomeness

02:13

@Ktash Bingo.

Ktash

You come to see the world just as Jonas does, along with him. All that meaning and nuance is completely lost when the reader is presented with the ideas visually. They no longer grow with the story. Which is why I think there can't be a good movie for the book. It isn't possible

At least, in my opinion

RPi Awesomeness

@Ktash Have you actually seen it? Not that I'm disagreeing with you, just wondring.

Unionhawk

Have I mentioned how much I hate @OrigamiRobot for peer pressuring me into this stupid kittens game that I can't stop playing goddammit

Origami Robot

Ktash

@RPiAwesomeness No. And refuse to because of this. The giver is one of my all time favorite books, and I don't particularly want to see it massacred

The short answer is that the shortest real-time orbit will always be at the altitude at which you can use the maximum time warp. On Kerbin, going from the lowest possible orbit (70km) to the orbit at which you can use max (100000x) time warp (600km), will increase your orbital period from 1834 se...

Unionhawk

@Unionhawk I was joking when I said "pizza" and the diarrhea comment was meant to be general and not directed at Domino's.

Ooo... newegg has it for $130...

Chippies

why would you pay such money for a headset? .__.

Tim Post

04:56

@Unionhawk The wireless aspect is what makes it really awesome. I can't stand any more cords than I must. I'm currently using Sony's wireless gaming headset for the PS3, which is nice, but the logitech one has much better sound and range.

Unionhawk

Yeah, I was annoyed using the old whatever the heck I was using before.

I don't even think it was a G series

No, it must have been, it's just not a thing anymore

I kind of want one if only to discover how dolby surround sound works with a headset.

Oh, amazon has it for $108. This is becoming more feasible.

Tim Post

I'm not the world's biggest audiophile, but when I tried it in the store, it sounded really nice. The depth / distance that you'd expect was there and easy to appreciate.

Unionhawk

Though... wireless does add a failure point...

Especially since there's a lot of shit that uses 2.4 GHz

Tim Post

I've heard about people having issues with that, but never experienced them myself.

Though coal production is going up a lot

So that's good

I mean, I guess the ships increase my resource limits by a tiny bit, but meh...

Unionhawk

Do multiple steamworks do anything?

Chippies

06:30

@Unionhawk when you reach resource cap, it converts certain amount of resources

higher steamworks = more resources

Unionhawk

Ahh

Chippies

also, if you have printing press, it prints manuscripts faster

Unionhawk

Right

Printing press is only helpful if you have furs, right?

Or...

Chippies

@Unionhawk nope

so, get that thing asap

it produces manuscripts out of thin air

if you're going to be around, it's best to turn steamworks off early on

you can generate more manuscripts by assigning more hunters, assuming you're around to convert them
