It’s actually a prequel to Treasure Island. It’s a pretty fun show, but historical accuracy isn’t a high priority. It’s also from Stars, so the first season has a lot of gratuitous nudity, but it gets scaled way back starting from the second season.

Black Sails showed keelhauling in a late episode.

All the stuff about his birth certificate or potentially being born abroad was totally irrelevant anyway since his mother was a citizen at the time of his birth. The constitution is very clear that citizenship is inherited at time of birth with no additional requirements or hoops to jump through. Literally the only exception for birth citizenship is if your parent is a visiting foreign dignitary. And even then, if one of your parents is a citizen, then so are you.

And 1080p is Full HD.
1440p is Quad HD.
2160p/4K is Ultra HD.
4320p/8K is also Ultra HD, for some bonus confusion.

Were they? I though they stopped that a few centuries previously due to pressure from the church.

Heavily depends on when in the timeline you’re looking at. They had stopped the sibling boinking for a good while by the time A Game of Thrones starts.

First person shooters either get you incredible FOV or incredible distortion on the side screens, depending on the engine. Also, pulling out a rocket launcher and having it take up the entire right display is just kind of funny the first time you do it.

Morrowind lets you pin your character sheet, inventory page, etc to stay open while playing, so you can have your center screen be the standard area with the side screens showing all your other stuff.

Yeah, but unless Helix suddenly fixes everything Xbox has been doing wrong since they debuted the XB1 in 2013, the brand is probably dead shortly after it launches.

Shouldn’t that be cyborg instead of centaur?

But does Audacious whip the llama’s ass?

Seagate drives are like crows - if you don’t get along with one, they tell their friends and harass you. For any given user, either Seagate drives are perfectly fine and last ages no matter what is done to them, or every single one they touch will self destruct with the lightest use for no reason. That it really does seem to vary by user rather than specific models or production runs is the baffling part.

See, I don’t really want full AR. I want a HUD, a very small number of rudimentary AR features, like floating windows for text documents or videos, physical buttons on the arms of the glasses, small drivers by the ears for audio, and battery life that will last most of the day. I already have to wear glasses and if I’m paying more for extra features I want ones that will last the whole time I might want them, not just the six or so hours a day that the current offerings have.

Drop the cameras and microphones and replace them with a couple accelerometers and gyros. Paired with your phone’s GPS tracking, the glasses can tell where you’re looking without actually seeing anything. You can get handy features like a floating ‘turn here’ sign over your exit while driving with GPS navigation without recording anyone or anything at any time. Better battery life, too.

I would go with an old money family rather than yakuza. The yakuza, and organized crime families in general, like to keep their community help programs out in the open so the locals don’t feel inclined to help the police against them. For example, the yakuza have a history of disaster relief and Al Capone ran a soup kitchen.

No, you’re thinking of Sprite, specifically the bottle caps.

Hang on, I think I’ve seen this episode of, uh, everything.

I think a bunch of people on here genuinely don’t know how to spell the word.

His character is actually Lithuanian, so he shouldn’t have a Russian accent. Not that Scottish is accurate…

Something something torment nexus something something.
