It's an anime probably from the 80-90s. I remember a long scene where a big robot that throws metal? balls from his arms is chasing a girl in a spaceship or glider on a desert planet.
I'm looking for a scary story anthology book where a kid gets killed by a table and his friend gets killed by a window, while his parents are away. It also had pictures showing the kids getting killed.
In Star Trek: Discovery S02E14 ("Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2"), an undetonated photon torpedo becomes lodged in the Enterprise, and the only way to protect the ship is to close the blast door between the room in which it resides and the rest of the ship.
The automated door-close mechanism also seem...
In Star Trek (any series) it would seem the transporter would make a great defensive weapon against your ship being boarded - simply start beaming the intruders into a holding cell (or if you're feeling particularly cruel, into space or just delete their patterns from the buffer altogether)
But m...

I remember this was an isekai manga but the main character is not reincarnated nor does he remember his past life. He was raised and taught magic and stuff like this by an old elf (the old elf says to him he is weak but in fact he is OP).
He leaves his home and goes on an adventure but soon he me...
I was wondering what the correct pronunciation of the word 'Teixcalaan' (in Teixcalaanli) is. I rewrote the word using the IPA and arrived at (except using the sound 'l' for the letter 'l' instead of 'ɣ' which the book suggests -- a typo?):

Identify the following short story or novel.
I read the book in the 1990s in the German language. Very likely the book was published one or more decades earlier, a typical softcover Heyne or Bastei-Lübbe sci-fi anthology or novel. Unfortunately, thousands of these publications exist, so this does...

At least with a button row, things have a natural size because of the text itself. Now, with a stack of radio buttons to pick from, the spacing is not much more than line height. So you have to zoom in to hit one.
But wait a second, did they maybe actually do that to discourage the non-skip-button-skippers? If that's the case, then it would be a genius idea!
Now all the lazy people can only click skip, instead of "no action needed" or "leave open"!
Maybe SE aren't as stupid random as I thought.
And yes, that was the motivation. Then I'll totally take back criticism on at least that part and happily click twice, knowing that about 5 million users daily won't click twice.
The last TV episode of Firefly, "Objects in Space", features a bounty hunter named Jubal Early who boards the Serenity with the intent of kidnapping River and claiming the bounty on her head. When I watched the episode, I thought that was just a funny name, but today I learned that there was a US...

We tracked down Melody Cartwright. She's here with Barbara Sayers and some other guy who...
Honouring a Confederate general isn't necessarily a bad thing, though. Unless there's more abstruse extents to it that your answer is shy of mentioning.
i really liked it but forgot the name :( it‘s definitely not completed! anyway as i said it‘s about a princess(? i‘m not sure about that but she is definitely a noble) that occasionally beats up people while only using her fists (she can use some type of magic that makes her stronger). she is ver...

I can't find this book where a 20 twenty something year old is chased down after his normal hospital check up shows metal workings inside his stomach. When he decides to run, he meets this girl who does fake IDs. After, they go on the run together to the Canary Islands (I believe) and they fall i...
