Something I don't get now that I've been reading comics: Is the actual larger continuity of comics being kept around solely for profit, or does it actually have a redeemable quality? What I'm wondering, as an outsider, is what the disadvantage would be if every story had an upper limit of, like 100-150 issues, and each of those were self contained. Keep all of the characters around, and create new ones all you want, but pick and choose what elements of story you want to address instead of having to contort the tale in order to not to conflict with something off-handedly mentioned 35 years ago. I feel like this is something the general reading public should have realized around the third time the entire continuity they knew was literally punched away, so I'm guessing there's a larger context I'm missing?

HAL isn't evil...
HAL has one primary objective: Complete the mission at any cost. However, the astronauts were talking about taking him offline, and HAL assocatied that with death. Thus to him, that violated the objective, hence why he killed them.

Shotguns. Most of the time it's Balance. If shotguns in games where as effective as they are in reality no one would use the pistol or the sniper because the shotgun would be really effective in those distances. TF2 I find handles the shotgun really well. One pellet is always dead center, while the rest is simi accurate to Way out of there, so it's effective in all ranges but still king at Close range. In the old timey guns thing. they do in some cases show that they are worse. however there is games that make them REALLY POWERFUL at the price of being Piss on ammo accuracy and firerate. Quote:
then there is the Ultimate version of Marvel that Chose to do the same thing your explaining but with the ENTIRE community. they got a set limit of comics that portrayed their super hero in a different light with some things changed. Like Ultimate Spider-man had Bio-webs from the beginning and Ulti Hulk was an attempt at making the Super Solder serum and was Intelligence (ish) from the start. No Mention needed on Ultimate Nick Fury.

I don't understand the appeal of Tim and Eric. I've sat through entire episodes trying to find something funny, and I just can't.
