    It could be worse. In Costa Rica, tips are already included in your receipt even if you don't want to pay them.

    That's only bad because the listed/advertised price is lower than what you actually end up paying.

    If it's what you're expected to pay, and what the staff needs to make a decent living ... why not save people the trouble of having to do the math.

    [edit] Apologies for the side track.
    Back to a world full of games...

    There is something. A deep down feeling I get when that camera is walking down the hallways of the Enterprise in that video.

    It is deep in my bones. That looks so right, those hallways. I get chills.

    Also man that Main Shuttle Bay is way bigger than I though. Especially since it was only ever used twiced and both barely.

    And give them a ton more money and respurces so they can make every single door in the ship work.

    Then do other ships.

    I'm not going to lie. I would very much purchase whatever i needed to view that in VR in the best graphics possible. Even if all you did was walk around the ship.

    How about a virtual tour. When you get to a specifc area, like the transporter room you activate the guide which is Levar Burton reading the technical guide entry as the transporter room deconstructs itself to show relevant items as Levar talks about them. You would be able to pause and manipluate individual items as they float in front of you.

    So like Star Trek: Borg?

    Marty: The future, it's where you're going?
    Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

    At least he didn't say anything insane like "Hellgate: London is, in some ways, a better Destiny."

    No, Jeff. What are you doing?

    I don't agree with him (it's the third best Die Hard), but I can understand where he's coming from.

    It's the "implemented terribly" that makes me blanch at the statement that it had anything on Destiny.

    Ten Forward is way too small

    It's weird that I notice that

    But presumably people this obsessive are using the technical manual as a reference so maybe in the manual it's that small

    It also seems like ceilings are smaller? But that could just be a perspective thing!

    It's not Ten-Forward; it's Two-Forward.

    Like, I wasn't making a joke about it earlier; I was being serious. It says "Two Forward"

    Yeah they are on deck two. It is that lounge that makes up the group of windows seen outside the ship below the bridge. He is going off official deckplans as much as possible.

    Galaxy Classes have a lotta lounges.

    The real genius of Die Hard 4 is that it only escalates. The numbers ONLY go up - at no point does that movie do something lesser than the scene before it.

    Well, you could play it with KB&M, so it automatically made it more fun for me to play.

    I mean, yeah, it was jank as hell, but it was still pretty fun. They were at least moving in the right direction to fixing things when it got shut down.

    accurate description. I'd put 2 about on par with 4, but that's mostly because 4s story is just so ludicrous technogarbage.

    but he also crashes that car into a helicopter, and that's pretty ok

    I just remember seeing most of Die Hard 4 on tv recently and being really confused when they introduce Justin Long's character by having him watch a Flyleaf video. I get that it was the mid 2000s so you had movies doing stuff like having Jennifer Garner stabbing bags of sand set to Evanescence but it felt really out of place.

    Just like in Premium Rush where the main guy randomly flashes back to the time he and his ex went to a Sleigh Bells concert.

    Also the worst Die Hard is Die Hard 5.

    Timothy Olyphant elevates DH4 from just a fun action movie to something on par with the good movies in the series. It's such a stupid premise but he makes it amazing instead of frustrating.
