The court additionally found that four other individuals fell ill as a result of Xu poisoning drinks in the Yoozoo offices between September and December of that same year, citing disputes with two other coworkers. They all survived.

time to go through Xu's entire history and look for unexplained deaths

Is it really that bad? I finished the series recently and I was kind of hoping that maybe it would be a reasonable interpretation

Muscar,

What?

Not sure if this is remotely on topic, but I think it's a good interpretation. There are big changes, but the overall plot follows the books well IMO.
There are issues in the books that wouldn't work on TV, at least not outside of China. Not to mention that maybe 90% of the book characters are Chinese. And perhaps over 90% are men. So I'm not at all bothered that there are major character changes.

Sounds more like a 1 body problem.

amio,

Cringe and not in a good way

@inkican

That's a weird joke

inkican,

What joke? I'm missing something

Anticorp,

There’s no joke. Read the article.

The Shanghai First Intermediate People’s Court found on March 22 that Xu was guilty of poisoning the food of founder Lin, 39, over a dispute with how the business was being managed. Lin died while in the hospital 10 days after the December incident

Man, fuck that guy.

This reads like AI SEO. So much repetitiveness to stretch a two sentence bit into an article

HoustonHenry, w 1980s Sci-Fi Books That Aged Badly (And 4 Still Worth Reading)

Great recommendations…but if you’ve watched “Battlefield Earth”, you’ll understand how good the book is (mildly /s)

I recently read Bloodstone by Karl Edward Wagner, I couldn’t put it down…technically it’s from the 70’s, but who’s counting?

kifujin, w Disney+ Is Getting the Most Influential Mecha Anime Series of All Time
@kifujin@kbin.social avatar

I really, really like Macross, but isn't the original Gundam a bit more influential? If we include Super Robot stuff, some early Go Nagai series are probably way up there for influence too. Rocket Punches, etc.

Tar_alcaran, w China is building a railgun that can hurl crewed spacecraft into orbit

If you want to reach LEO velocity and stay under 5g, you’d need a 860km long railgun…

This was posted in the correct community, because it’s about as real as the hyperloop

Just to save you guys a click, this is a Google translate of, "some of you may die but that is a risk I'm willing to take"

thr0w4w4y2, w China is building a railgun that can hurl crewed spacecraft into orbit

humans can still function when insane G forces have turned them into jelly right?

atocci, (edited )

While railguns are known for rapidly accelerating projectiles to hypersonic speeds over the short length of a gun barrel, there's no limit on how slowly they can accelerate something or how long the "rail" part of the railgun can be. Accelerating "slowly" over a long distance is totally possible!

Repelle,

Sure, but it’s gonna require one hell of a long rail…

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown,

Make it a circular rail with an off-ramp; like a particle accelerator. Still very ambitious.

sushibowl,

That would put the g-forces back in play: the faster you go around the rail the stronger the centripetal force that keeps you going in a circle. If the rail is straight the force only depends on acceleration not speed.
