Is this a new Steam Deck? I’m not up on handhelds but a couple months ago was thinking about picking one up. Oh hell that’s a price jump…. Haha, no.

Well yeah, there’s always fine print 🤣

I know you’re being partially facetious but anecdotally it’s still doable for a livable 2,000 sqft house around here. Friend just bought 1800 sqft on 3 acres about 20 minutes outside of Little Rock. Think he paid $212k, single guy, first home at 40 years old. He’s already done new windows for...

Oh yeah, I'm not doing anything she doesn't suggest. It is her commission and in her best interest to tell us what to do so she gets her money too. Just saying, left to my own devices and judgement I'd do stupid stuff that would be a waste. Plus every dollar we spend here is a dollar taken away...

We had a realtor come out and look at our current home just so that we're ready to list and hopefully get under contract in alignment when the new house is finished. We're talking about listing it ~60 days out, she feels like she could negotiate 30 days at closing but any longer than that and we...

I was told this adds “character” to your work.

The stupidity of the entire stupid point being argued is she had NO IDEA The Odyssey existed. No one is claiming she should be 100% familiar with the source material. She said in her statement that she had zero idea that The Odyssey existed. None. That’s it. The at is profoundly stupid for a...

Conversation Tree Press just announced the latest in their Short Stop series: We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, by Philip K. Dick. We may better know it as the short story that inspired Total Recall. https://conversationtreepress.com/pages/we-can-remember-wholesale-philip-k-dick Hand...

Wow, sorry to hear about all that.

@Szlia has great insight into film and foreign stuff I’d never even have a chance to know about. He’s as much a part of the “we” in the movie forum as you or anyone and has been for decades. That being said, it certainly doesn’t excuse the stupidest of stupid hot takes of equivocating Homer and...

It has been years since I watched F1, last names that were on my mind were Kimi, Montoya, Alonso, Schumacher, Button, Barrichello, Coulthard... 20 years ago? Saw it pop up on Apple today and wow, they made watching Montreal interesting with all the different ways to watch. Every driver stream...

In 20-30 years audio will be piped in directly through your ScreamCo Catheter along with your daily nutritional supplements. At ScreamCo we put the C in USB-C!

Here’s our quote but keep in mind this was 2021. He told me the same thing about it not being slippery but it just hasn’t been my experience. Not 100% sure on our total square footage, this was for a single car garage I use as a shop and a standard two car garage.

We had a realtor come by the house yesterday because we want everything prepped and lined up as possible once our new build is done. She was talking about the garage floors I had done in polyaspartic and how much buyers love it. Had to tell her I actually really don’t love it and need to find a...

Yeah I also read about the countertop one too but we went the Momcozy direction. The good news is that baby stuff is so big on Facebook Marketplace that you’re almost guaranteed to recoup 50% what you paid. Made the decision super easy for the added convenience. Should have done it 2 kids ago.

I agree about the dishwasher thing but very dependent on circumstance. When single it was easy to wash one plate and use the same glass all day long, or just use paper plates. But I’m not about to try and stay on top of what three kids generate between two sets of bottles for the...

New Suntup announcement is The Color Out of Space by HP Lovecraft. This looks really nice and I have a 4 Volume set of Lovecraft’s work. I may actually pick up the Artist or Numbered edition if available. The Colour Out of Space by H.P. Lovecraft - Suntup Editions

This was very bad. The only interesting point was about 1hr20min into the movie. Otherwise, and even then, a total waste of time.

Yikes, hard pass.

Both our current house and new build the dryer is right up against an exterior wall. I haven't even really considered what was going on or what it would look like. The only problem with the new build is that it is against an exterior front elevation wall, so whatever vent is included may be...

Well yeah, it says collider right there in the preview.

Plus, Cavill just started as an ambassador for Longines and would have to switch over to Omega I’m pretty sure. Took a second to remember that Cavill was in Mission Impossible and not Bond.

I was honestly just making a bad joke, but you had me paranoid and interested about whether my joke was wrong. According to fda.gov it has small amounts, which may be practically none compared to an actual cup of coffee.

decaf or uncaf?

I made this post back in December regarding the different translations and which one Nolan was relying on for this. Did they actually confirm that the Emily Wilson version is the one he's more or less basing this around? I haven't kept up with this thread much since that post but just now saw...

I've discussed this in the Home Buying thread a bit, I think, we're talking to our builder about these issues but it is difficult (without going to someone very specialized) to find a GC and builder electrical company that knows this stuff. It is all cost / benefit on how crazy you want to get.

Nah, I think it is fun. It has never had a single problem or missed a beat, but I like working on things and taking care of my stuff. Just sounds like a relaxing tinkering project that I could do.

I need to do a little preventative maintenance to by Craftsman push with a Briggs motor. It has treated me well for 5 seasons with no issues and want to keep it that way. Things are so busy just need a nice weekend day to go out and give it some TLC.

The guy that did it, Jonathan Djob Nkondo, did a Kickstarter for some graphic novels. I saw it pop up a lot but never bought it, may track down a copy at some point.

Actually a guy dies pretty late in the film ground up by invisible shredder thing… one of the more interesting deaths in the movie.

I'm about 30 minutes in and have nothing positive to say about it. Will probably finish it b/c just doing spreadsheets on the other monitor, but honestly the MS Project and Smartsheet work is more interesting than what is happening in this movie. It became only slightly more interesting through...

Oh yeah if you run it through your side LLC or whatever you’d be fine. I refresh my laptop / monitors every year because I have basically zero operating expenses unless I really try.

Double check bc I believe the Tax Cut and Jobs Act changed what are allowable deductions. Also, it wouldn’t matter unless you’re itemizing anyways, but just check to make sure it qualifies and you don’t spend $1,000 hoping to include it in your 2026 deductions and can’t. I only keep up with it...

Closing on construction loan on Friday so should be kicked off here full stream by end of month. Now I get to have real anxiety.

Looks like it is a set of 11 signed, limited prints of all currently revealed floors. Facebook post just updated but the site hasn’t yet. Meh, I like artwork but don’t have room on a wall to display 11 nerd drawings. tbh kind of shit... hah I try not to be too negative about these things, but...

You’re doing a dishwasher? I went back and looked at the renderings and it looks like it. Conventional wisdom says it goes on the same side as the DW, however I’ve had it both ways in houses. Current house it is opposite side and it just makes it a slightly larger pain to run the water and drain...

Timex did a release with Todd Snyder (really have no idea who that is, some fashion brand I gather) of a 1976 watch. I've been kicking around the idea of a JLC Reverso but wasn't sure if a rectangle watch would actually be my thing. So, for $150 figured why not give this one a shot. Replaced...

As I was joking about above, when we do shelter design for telecom sites one portion of that includes installing a Type I at service entrance which was usually a large MOV (metal oxide varistor) and Type II (mov/sad hybrid maybe) at the panel. Additionally a Type III device at equipment. More...
