    This scene always drove me nuts. It seems so unrealistic that a ship could survive crash landing onto the planet like that.

        The technology isn’t presented as magical so yes. Just because people can move objects with their mind doesn’t mean gravity doesn’t exist.

        Suspension of disbelief only works if it feels like you’re trying to make the system consistent. If you start doing whatever you want because the story isn’t entirely based on our reality then it becomes an uninteresting story

          The technology isn’t presented as magical…?

          Kyber crystal? Hyper lanes? FTL? THE FORCE? Star Wars is sci-fi in flavouring only. There’s no sci in that fi at all. And that’s ok, that’s not the point of the stories.

    Since we switched to Lemmy I removed the Reddit app and the Apollo app, but did occasionally browse a single subreddit in Firefox mobile app whilst not logged in. Now they’ve totally walled off the whole site. Ridiculous.
