    Did you end up going with the Wen? That looks like the Wen color / logo, just couldn't remember where you settled.

    Like 10 minutes? Movie is already almost 3 hours and I think this put it right about that time. It’s on Amazon Prime for regular rental cost, $3.59 or whatever.

    We just finished the Director's Cut tonight. It has been years since seeing the last regular version so really no idea which scenes were added / lengthened. Still a badass movie though. I just tell myself it is 100% historically accuate.

    Home Improvement

    I’d like to try a chainsaw and maybe add one to my Ego setup. I just bought an Echo 2620 trimmer because my yard is just too large to run a hedge trimmer, string trimmer, and blower on two batteries and anyways even buying extra Chinese batteries was irritating so I just got a gas edger. I find...

    Home Improvement

    All my battery stuff is Ridgid and will probably stay that way for the foreseeable future. Everything is very comfortable to use and has never had an issue so no major reason to change. Even their little battery circular saw I use more than my tethered Makita. That thing is nice. My tethered...

    Death Stranding

    Interesting video about Kojima’s collaboration Hamilton to make the watch from the game. If you aren’t familiar with Hamilton they’ve been around since the 1890a and were originally a US company, but are now Swiss owned and made. They made a name in WW1 and WW2 but most recently have been famous...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The main thing about the CX-90 and other similar sizes is maneuverability of kids from back seat through second row captains chairs both filled with rear facing car seats. I’m not huge on the “just crawl over everything and get out” but that’s a personal thing. So going the full size gigantic...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I would also probably purchase it through my LLC and use it for work travel, whether buy or lease. Still working the math out on that one. I need a new accountant. Having to walk my current one through too much crap to get a benefit.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah, I loved my CX-7 and would totally go back to Mazda. Forgot they did the CX-90 now. Think we looked at that before getting the Santa Fe and it ended up being too long for our current garage. Plan right now is to just suffer through birth in October and stick with it and see how much of a...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah that's why I was focusing in on the Pacifica b/c reviews for it have been pretty high and it doesn't look THAT bad. It is due for a refresh though as I believe it still based around a 2016 frame and needs some interior tech upgrades. I really just want our truck and a family hauler. And as...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    We still really love the wife’s 2025 Santa Fe. For the price and tech it is very comfortable to drive and take on road trips. The main issue is that with our soon to be family of 5 and needing two car seats and one booster seat, plus eventual after school sports activities, the Santa Fe just...

    Small Press / Fine Press Editions

    What reminded me to do this is that Curious King just revealed pictures for their edition of Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb, book 1 of Farseer. I have not read the series but understand there's a ton of hype surrounding it and people are going gaga. The shots look really nice. This is the...

    Small Press / Fine Press Editions

    I spam other threads with announcements from small presses that I get newsletters and updates from, so rather than constantly trying to find a thread for that specific title, genre, or author I thought I'd just make a thread that can be used for this type of content. There are a few primary...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Awesome! I also think Bill at SubPress said they’re doing the pre-order for TGiNW and the books are already in warehouse. Will be cool to get both this year! I remember when the cover art was released and everyone was speculating about who is on the cover. Need to refresh myself with Book 1 once...

    Project Hail Mary

    I've listened to so much crap just because RC Bray narrated it. After Expeditionary Force and The Martian, I just downloaded anything I could find he did.

    Project Hail Mary

    I need to redo this as an audiobook because my head just isn't creative enough to imbue characters with near as much personality that VAs can. I read The Martian and listened to the audiobook and while the book was enjoyable, the audiobook really made it great for me, much more than the film...

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    After seeing them back-to-back I do agree Casino Royal was the most well rounded movie and fully developed. The others were very enjoyable to me too though (not counting NTtD as we didn’t watch it) and felt worth watching. Trying to think about Bond villains vs Mission Impossible villains. Need...

    Aaron Taylor-Johnson also since Omega just signed him as an ambassador. Who knows at this point. We finished Spectre last night as we’ve spent the last couple of weeks re-watching all of them.

    Murderbot

    Oh she’s definitely pretty blue hair crazy. In her commencement speech I posted a while back here or in the Book House she talks about how Murderbot is some allegory for body dysmorphia and trans ideas, and struggling with that identity, yadda yadda. But the dumb thing is that it almost comes...

    The Alters

    Does the hub connection only provide power to the mining equipment, such as that 1st organics thing? So I still need to travel back to that spot and collect, but can now do it via fast travel? Also, guess I did spend too much time running around mining out of anxiety bc my base was full the 2nd...

    The Alters

    I’m only like 30 minutes in, maybe, after three days because RL distractions keep popping up. Just did the first Organics thing with the pylons to connect back to base. Really need a chunk of time to sit and enjoy this. Seems good so far. Concerned about the base building and resource management...

    Unfortunately, no. It was for a couple I knew from hanging out at bars and when I gave it to them they were building their deck. Since it’s been like 4 years since stopping drinking have lost contact with them 😅

    I did one a couple years ago too. It isn’t that difficult and there’s 100 different ways to do the joinery. I based my measurements around the rocks glasses that a friend used and the typical dimensions of a whiskey they drank. It is oak and I used TotalBoat sealer and finish. Have a Fusion3D...

    The only one I never got into out of that list (those lists) was Oddity. Just thought it wasn’t great. Oh and Black Phone. Otherwise I tend to trust those initial impressions a little more than generic Hollywood films. Or at least take it as a more positive barometer for what may interest me...

    I just finished Season 3 yesterday and thought it was better than Season 2 by a bit. Didn't read this thread so no idea what the board consensus is. The only annoying part was Duffy's accent but by the end it was just too hilarious to be distracting. It was cool seeing Anthony Michael Hall...

    Finished Swan Song finally, took a bit longer due to work and just being too tired at night to put in time. It was really great though. Highly enjoyed it and maybe didn’t keep the same level of greatness the whole way through, it was absolutely worth reading. So I’ve also started Boy’s Life and...

    Did you have any issue loading the RTing ICC? I remember trying to do that on my Alienware one last year but the Windows profile manager thing was not intuitive and I couldn’t get it to load or save, some roadblock. Just remember giving up after 10 minutes and saying whatever.
