thats gotta be, what, 1% of the profit they made from this?

I always go back to Prometheus when talking about the “Idiot Ball” because it’s the gold standard. You’ve got these world-class scientists sent on a trillion-dollar mission who don’t even know what they’re doing there until they wake up from cryo, and then they immediately act like children playing in a backyard.

The second the sensors say the air is “breathable,” they’re ripping their helmets off like they’ve never heard of a space-virus or a spore. It’s insane. Then you’ve got the biologist, a literal professional, seeing a hissing, alien “space-cobra” in a clear threater posture and his first instinct is to try and pet it like a stray cat.

And don’t even get me started on the guy who literally mapped the cave with high-tech drones being the one who gets hopelessly lost in it. Or the “Prometheus School of Running Away from Things” where you run in a perfectly straight line under a falling, circular ship instead of just… stepping to the left? It’s like the script needed the plot to happen so badly that it just stripped every character of their survival instincts and professional training.

Compare that to competency porn shows, like the Martian, where they FEEL like the best of the best

That is a very, very extensive “I have no clue what I’m talking about in this subject”

Maybe take 10 minutes to educate yourself before opening your mouth.

I use Versatile Thermostat and scheduler, for a basic control loop, and then use automations to overwrite target temps to versatile thermostat

Ie: normal temp is 20, but if only I am home, house temp is 18.

It’s almoast like they keep investing on bigger and bigger cars, instead of what the people want.

That’s how I feel about Canada allowing chinese car makers: if the Chinese EVs will serve the market out local companies repeatedly have failed to serve, then bring em in.

Are you unfamiliar with the concept of an analogy?
