Oh man, this is epic stuff. Must get the books ASAP
Edit: Can't believe no one tried to make a movie about this. He's basically describing an incredibly advanced , sinister alien master race. And this was written before the whole spaceflight thing began. Forget the wraiths of Stargate, the xenomorphs or the Borgs. These guys are waaay more sinister. Seriously, this is good science-fiction material

Lots of attempts have been made to make a good Lovecraft film, but most of them fall far short. Lovecraft had a great way of describing terrible beings without actually giving too much of a physical description, leaving the worst horror for your imagination to fill in. Most movie makers can't figure out how to translate that to a screen without mucking it up.

This is aweeeee...some... No, I won't stand beside a burning rocket stage... :leaving:
Chinese villagers captured remarkable footage just after sunrise on Friday showing a Long March 3B rocket booster falling out of the sky, crashing into a mountain and exploding into flames while releasing highly toxic propellants left in its tanks after helping send a pair of Beidou-3 navigation satellites on their way into orbit.

Just realized I didn't make a launch thread for that. :facepalm: Sorry.

French Rafale Fighters Will Deploy Aboard An American Supercarrier This April
This looks like it'll be interesting. (In a good way, mind you) Certainly going to be odd to see Rafales on the deck of a Nimitz for more than a few hours to days.

Crazy to go anywhere near that, even if it's not burning you have no idea what kind of toxic stuff is in those things. That sickly orange cloud in that second photo? That looks like hypergolic stuff to me. No thanks, I prefer my lungs to remain in working order, please.

That's because it is hypergolic. That BFRC (Big Frickin' Red Cloud) would certainly have me running upwind. :lol:

Why does the link go through Facebook instead of being direct? I assume you just pasted it out of Facebook?

Yes, Linguofreak. I saw the news on Facebook first, so I just copied the link and pasted it here. I have updated the link with the proper one that directs one to the news page itself. Thanks for the heads-up.

Somebody really dun goofed. I happen to work in the outbound side of Amazon these days and I can only think of one or two ways that managed to slip the like...four different places where that should have been caught.

Forgot them long ago. Atlantis was a good show overall, but they had the second most terrible villains of any scifi show I've seen (first place being the... wraiths? seriously? ...of DS-9. Maybe it's something with the name...)

I remember watching the first few episodes as a kid, and yes, they were scary. But they lost that aura pretty quickly Too many
ty visuals ( then again, this is to be expected for Stargate ) ) Also, the storyline started getting crappy after a while. Also, while the bug idea was kinda cool, it seemed too similar to the Aliens plot

Interesting. The address was mine, but the name was someone else's. If the purchaser entered the incorrect shipping address, how could that have been caught?

I just gave a call to the police after receiving two SMS with my phone number for an online shop order I didn't do. Wasn't my address, not my bank account or identity, just my phone number. But after finding out who was going to get this and locating the phone number via classic phone book, I simply called there, got some heartwarming story about the husband being dead for 26 years... that was the point when I gave this to the police. I would not be surprised if he is really dead, but I can't verify it. I can't proof yet that there is some kind of crime, but I am 99% sure it is. two times a phone number wrong? Dead person? Too many incidents.
