I often think of people describing scientists as "ivory tower" types, and just now i asked a dino-question, and got 2 highly respected researchers to respond

and in case you wondered, I asked wtf is the difference between Triceratops horridus and Triceratops prorsus, cus every answer seems to be "nose horn thickness" but that's biologically insignificant, and it always bothered me.

Turns out the answer was "nose horn thickness, but also some other skull details, that are much more significant" *pictures* COOL! Love that!

The "ivory tower" perception (I think) comes from people who approach these topics in a similar way as flat earthers when talking to scientists. Dime a dozen response from the scientists view.

I also got a soft spot for the tragedy sub genre of rich dad takes entire family up in the propellar plane, and then dives and crashes everybody to death, usually due to arrogant incompetence

Thread 'Why Fallout: Dust Is My Canon New Vegas Ending'

Hello NMA, it's been a while since I've posted something on here and figured I'd rectify that.

I have recently fell into the rabbit hole of playing Fallout: Dust and falling in love with it's world, challenging gameplay, and the carefully crafted take on New Vegas' ending. While bleak and depressing, I have come to believe that Dust is a strong contender for what the West (or at the very least, the Mojave) could look like post-New Vegas.

But first, we have to get the obvious out of the way.

What is Fallout: Dust?
Dust is a total...

Also I agree that a super-genius Courier could play 5D chess with every faction in the Mojave and maneuver everything available to him perfectly as to never lose, and I assume from the way you talk about the Courier, but I personally like the idea of a flawed Courier. I think the themes of New Vegas lead to an ending where everyone's gamble ends in loss one way or another.

Not everything in Dust is great, there's a bunch of stupid shit I dislike in it, but the concept in itself is really intriguing to me. Some things that are out of everyone's control such as the Tunnelers and Dust storms as well as a weaponized Cloud swallowing the land is very true to Fallout.

Out here in the wasteland of thoughts and pixels, dissecting the good, bad, and downright radioactive in Fallout lore. Currently chewing on the Fallout TV adaptation—spoiler: it tastes like brahmin dung. Always up for a discussion on the classics (Fallout, Fallout 2, New Vegas) or anything wasteland-related. War never changes, but storytelling sure does. Let’s dive into the irradiated corners of the franchise!

I have a soft spot for stories of amateur pilots, crashing their entire families for birthday
