Well I missed my friends across the pond. I think they are in night time mode now. It's nice to read the words, even when read later.
Still, sigh, I do miss the #scifiHour and #scifiChat groups. My schedule has been complicated by life lately.
Yes. Robots feed the crickets/grubs the trimmings of food waste, and then the robots vacuum up and process the little critters, def, a job for robots. Shelling crawdads or tiny shrimp is already enough labor to daunt. #scifiHour
Thank you for #scifiHour book suggestion. Just searched that up. :)
The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson
Murder bot, not muderbot :D ha ha, #scifiHour
Is it #scifihour now-ish or er.. . today? Thursday?
The last #scifi movie watched was Adam Sandler in Spaceman. That talking spider was something special.
Last #scifi #book read? The 7th Muderbot, System Collapse.
And we rewatched The Peripheral #tv William Gibon's story.
sounds like a plan, I’ve jumped back into The Witcher tv show & enjoying it a lot more now that I’ve played the last game. So like you I can fit an episode in before horizontal time #scifihour #Caio4now
#SciFiHour Yes it is the origin story of Alfred Batmans Butler set in an Alternate 50's/60's UK I am enjoying it so far its on Amazon Prime If I say Gnight now I might get an extra episode in before Z time
I’ve not, is it worth checking out?
I’m a bit lukewarm on Superhero live adaptations / TV shows.
I’m still old skool reading the comics though, clinging to my childhood dreams #scifihour
#SciFiHour Yeah I thought I'd give the Pennyworth origin story a go when I saw an Airship in the trailer I assume you watched it 1st time around being a Batman fan?
yeah, I lose interest in zombie series when the character make the most bizarre / stoopid decisions, just to force a story in a certain direction. Takes me out of it immediately & I am a very easily pleased consumer - I’ll watch most things if sci-fi #scifihour
#SciFiHour Yep much easier to set up a few Solar Panels than an oil refinery a thing that Mad Max got right. All those Zombie series where in the 7th or 8th season they are still syphoning fuel that would have gone bad in the 2nd or 3rd season at the latest have no idea
wouldn’t surprise me. I want them to hang on for WWIII for a few more years so I can move somewhere more remote. Then I can whizz round in my leafy car like a carbon neutral Mad Max #scifihour
#SciFiHour Not to encourage you finish faster but the Mr 🍊 Ballroom is rumoured to be a cover for an extension of the Whitehouse Bunker as he did not think it was roomy enough which seems mildly ominous😜
Yes indeed, I thought it was a fantastic season, loved them expanding the Robot lore. Shame the ‘twist’ completely missed for me, if the clues aren’t there then for me that’s poor writing. But did setup Foundation & Earth for next season, if it gets one #scifihour
finally doing the internal insulation on my man-bunker, bloody wrecked me… had today off to recover but needs plenty more #scifihour
#SciFiHour Was the Last season of Foundation any good that was an Apple one IIRC?
I’ve added an Apple TV show to my watchlist when it comes out, called Pluribus - about the most miserable woman on the planet saving humanity from a happiness plague. Love the concept, looks like a dark comedy #scifihour
as is my way with Invasion I found S1 just ok but after that I really got into it - worth a look I think #scifihour
#SciFiHour I think I still have a free taster episode of Invasion to check out also looking forward to the last season of #TheBoys
caught up on Gen V & Invasion finales, can’t wait for the next season of The Boys now.
Invasion was good, nice wrap up #scifihour
#SciFiHour #WhiteRabbiting again Maybe another to add to the TBR list I am still rereading the culture & started watching an alternate past Pennyworth
just seen a sequel to a book I consumed on audible is free, so going to give that a try. The Downloaded 2: Ghosts in the Machine by Robert J Sawyer. 1st book is pretty good #scifihour
finished Thin Air by Richard Morgan, very good, hard boiled street level sci-fi #scifihour
here for #scifihour, although it’s been a quiet sci-fi week really
Hope you feel better soon sir!
I was just hopping on to say I’ll probably be late to #scifihour as going for one of those free Prostate cancer blood tests tonight
Felling a bit off today so will give #SciFiHour a miss tonight hopefully will be back on form next week
indeed safety first!
and with that I shall disassemble & store myself for another week #Ciao4now #scifihour
#SciFiHour I think the one Scott was talking about had an emergency parachute but like you I'd like a few more beta testers checking safety before I'd commit 😜 With that Gnight
yeah, I think they will be pretty prevalent around cities in the coming years but I’d want a lot of safeguards before I got in one #scifihour
#SciFiHour Yeah & I'd want the MOTs on flying vehicles to be very strict as well
