Yes. The larger craft are more interesting but you can clearly see the roots of their design. "Yatch", "Osprey", "Aliens", "Malformed Shoebox"

Here, have some anime



That's obviously a mix between an airplane, a luxury sports car, and balls. Yet, even with the wings, it is undeniably a starfighter. One for showy assholes.



Wow, that thing really wants to put some holes in you! It's flying over a highway but it is clearly not an airplane. How do they do it?



That's a boat! Well, it is actually a boat. As it rests on top of the water. Also clearly a starship at the same time.


Now compare those with the 890 jump:



Sure, it looks like a yatch but since it also supposed to go on water... wait it doesn't? Well, it is not like you could have a space yatch anyways!



while also looking kind of like a penis.

I was just about to make this post. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

Wow. Everything about that scene is wrong. The directing is bad, the writing is bad, the acting is bad.

Why in the world does anyone think that SQ42 is going to be good?

Because Wing Commander II — a game he didn't really write.
Possibly because Wing Commander: Privateer — a game where his involvement was that his name was on the box.

In an alternate reality, the happy and sweet looking girl in that photo went on to study the Blue-Ringed Octopus, and her contributions, along with those of other teams, led to the breeding of a non-toxic variety, which immediately became a worldwide sensation as one of the coolest aquarium pets ever. A man on the other side of the planet, one Ben Lesnick, got one as a pet, and was so fascinated that he immediately took up scuba diving as a hobby, which demanded disciplined exercise and diet to maintain a slim, fit physique for efficient underwater exploration.

We live in the other version.

Somebody's probably already said this, but her academic credentials have very little relevance beyond the fact that she may have lied about them. Her overall stupidity as evidenced by pretty much everything she's done, including her wince-inducing 3rd grade writing level in her emails to Beer, prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that she's not fit for her position, even if she has 3 doctorates and a Nobel prize. Regarding my first point, is her lying about her degree specifically any more of a reflection of her quality than her willingness to fleece the mentally disabled out of millions of dollars? Racism? Harassment of employees? Using company resources for personal gain? I say she sunk her own battleship, degree or not.

The cat is both dead and alive, though. Certainty would at least put the speculation to bed, especially if that image really is stock photography. I don't know of anyone that hasn't massaged the truth to get a job, hell she's listing 'Around the Verse' as a producer gig, but faking a degree is a step beyond.

Again, it doesn't really amount to a hill of beans.

I agree that lying about a degree is a more serious offense than, say, fudging your work history. If some guy with a genius idea and a GED starts up a multi-million dollar company, treats his employees well, and has a nice life - I say more power to him. Don't lie about a degree, get one if you care, but by all means keep being awesome.

But with Sandi, I don't know how this particular lie, considering the litany of outright fiction she's draped around herself, somehow became a locus for scrutiny.

Your probably right on Karl, he needs some time to cool off I think. Getting owned by DSmart stings, but if he doesn't write a giant rant about it he's ahead of croberts.
