Well, in many games there is a Speak With Animals spells or equivalent. They are capable of communication, we just usually can’t understand.

Get that curry out of here. We were about to settle on your cheddar, until we realized you were still hiding the good stuff.
Yeah, I would have been 11 when it came out. I definitely had heard the original, but couldn’t say who sang it or anything. I wouldn’t call it “the sing from Shrek,” but I also can’t really remember the original and think of the Shrek version. I’m not surprised anyone younger than myself would call it that though.
I think so long as you maintain consciousness that issue is fairly null in this particular circumstance. There’s lots of tolerance for changes in thought while maintaining the same self, see many brain damage victims. So long as there is minimal change in personality, there are lots of other circumstances that have a stronger case for killing one person and having a new person replace them due to change of consciousness, imo, I don’t think most people would consider a brain damaged person killed and replaced by a new consciousness, or a drug addiction with radically altered brain chemistry, etc.
I don’t see an issue with that. A prolonged brain surgery that meticulously replaces each part with a mechanical equivalent in sequence. Could probably remain conscious the whole time.
In Legends and canon, laser is an etymological holdover from obsoleted weapons. Laser weapons are no longer actually used, and laser canons/turbo lasers are all blaster tech, just different broad categories.
Pretty sure Kyp flew it into a black hole before cramming himself into a probe and abandoning ship. Pretty sure even quantum armor isn’t going to hold up to that.
Executor does not have a superlaser. The Eclipse Super Star Destroyer did.
As a fan of both, neither are truly Sci-fi. They both use it as dressing, but one is an action fantasy and the other is drama with emphasis on social commentary. Neither are really harder sci-fi than the other in the grand scheme of fiction. Star Wars may even be a bit better in that at least they don’t try to explain most of the tech so it can’t self contradict as much as Trek does.
I remember it as eg-zample.
I came here to “correct” you to that, yes. But then it’s not really IPA anymore, and the other character doesn’t make sense now. May as well stick to the more universal system.
Bah, I always forget eth is different in IPA than how it was used in Old English.
Yeah, but even if the chance per outing decreases a large increase in outings can still bring the average up. I was an avid skier growing up aND hit the slopes every year, the only surgery I’ve had was from a skiing accident in my early 20s when I was forced to wipe out or collide with another skier and snapped my ACL.
Based off archaic spelling of the river Acheron which seemed cool. Added Æ half for hipstery, half to ensure uniqueness, and half because funny that natural shortening to “ash” also name of first letter. Some places don’t allow Æ though like Lemmy, so have to make due with AE.
They did show them sweeping through a horrificly deadly funnel defended by relatively well covered rebels and toasting them with no issues is the very first scene of the movie. The assault on the Tantove IV was basically suicide, and they still mopped up like it was Tuesday. The double reveal, by both Leia and Tarkin, is more than sufficient to make the point, instead of a hamfisted scene earlier of Vader giving them orders not to kill and eliminating all the tension from the escape.
