Oh I’ve done both of those. Last year or the year before when our middle son was born and I needed late night baby feeding/rocking TV. I actually thought they held up fairly well and enjoyed pretty much the whole run of if I remember correctly. Some other thread has my thoughts on Andromeda and...

I’ve been doing a rewatch of the Highlander series and boy it is pure 90s amazing cheese. Duncan is knocked unconscious like every episode and luckily there are no other Highlanders around to lop his head off. Sword fights that swap to grainy black and white, slo mo, synth soundtrack. Just...

hah exactly the same here. I started watching it before scrolling down to the comment and description and thought for sure someone had just ripped it off.

AI getting crazy… Some of the details are wrong but it is funny I recognized the scene immediately and haven’t read Way of Kings since it was first released.

Awesome, glad it helped. I gave up my monthly subscription because the quality of those prints just weren’t worth the $53/book after exchange shipping. The one offs though seemed to use slightly better paper and signed, so that’s always cool.

If anyone is interested in decent-ish shelf copies of books, The Broken Binding just went live with their hardcover edition of this today: https://thebrokenbindingsub.com/products/between-two-fires Should be open to order for anyone. Never heard of the book and no idea so kind of passed over...

Oh dang, whoops. Got confused somehow when it started popping up in recommendations. Thanks.

Random bump instead of making a new thread. I guess Housemarque released a new game called Saros. Had no idea it was coming out but I loved Returnal. Unfortunately PS5 only for now like Returnal was on release. Also 70 fucking dollars, not a chance I’m paying that these days even as great as...

This popped up as a recommendation and was pretty short so thought I’d give it a shot. I need to do more new / independent or smaller sci fi and branch out a bit. This book reminds me why that is difficult, though. It isn’t aggressively bad, but just never gets out of mediocrity. Surface level...

Full details were released Friday of the Curious King and Lit Escalates editions of Red Rising. 4 states announced: Artist Edition, Numbered (1-350), Lettered (52 copies, A-ZZ), and Roman Numeral (I - X). The Artist edition is basically unlimited and is an amazing deal at $100. Three week...

Kiddo’s grandfather thought it’d would be fun to surprise us with a Ninja Ceami, so now I get to become a fatass and perfect my soft serve game. Just inconsiderate if you ask me! We had milk on hand, granulated sugar, and vanilla paste so did a quick batch last night. Was actually pretty dang...

You’d have to update the physics engine to support the modern Nathanya’uwbo Drake and xer diverse team swinging and hanging from everything. AI is great haha

That’s some serious wtf.

I don't consider anything without a static map a Metroidvania. The procedurally generated maps kind of take away a lot of the design that goes into Metroidvania type games. Progression may be locked behind certain "key" upgrades for new maps/biomes, but I don't qualify that as the sole defining...

Metroidvania is a genre Roguelike is a genre Roguelite is a genre Faggot is a choice

Glad I’m not the only one with the opinion on Windblown’s artistic choices. It is really abysmal on top of very spammy but fun gameplay.

That’s interesting because Motion Twin is releasing Windblown which is in EA now. I’ve been playing it a bit here and there. Very different than Dead Cells with the 3rd person 3D perspective, gameplay has some overlap but not a huge amount. Still Roguelite. The biggest turn off is the characters...

Had a guy on Fiverr render our kitchen layout. I don’t even want to say “proposed” because this is just what is currently in the designer plans. Nothing looked at by cabinet makers or decisions around fixtures, faucet, everything. Gave the guy the floorplan and said “let’s see this in 3D.” We...

I'd be concerned with standard poly that various bathroom items like toothpaste, mouthwash, products, steam, moisture, etc would eat away and get into the vanity. And also think you're right about the wax part. Have you looked at Waterlox? Waterlox Coatings Corporation it may work in your...

I’ve been super busy and honestly there haven’t been a lot of interesting announcements after the Red Rising one last year. Nothing that excites me at least. But today Conversation Tree Press announced they’re doing an edition of There Is No Anitmemetics Division...

I’ve had my Thursday Presidents for 4 years and they’ve been great. Selling a second pair of different ones just because I’m trying to pare down my shoes. https://thursdayboots.com/products/mens-president-lace-up-boot-mocha-suede

A couple of things I consider must have BIFL would by my trimmer and shaver. This BaByLiss Pro is incredible. It is heavy as hell and built like a tank but gets my neck and touch up throughout the week perfectly. I had a couple of cheap shavers before getting irritated with skin irritation...

Had no idea that was some later boss. Saw him from the roof and spent 20 minutes running around trying to get up there. Even aggro’d him by hitting him with arrows hoping to pull him down but he leashed. Finally gave up and moved on with things. Pretty funny, tried climbing those hay stacks for...

The visuals suck ass, but no one cares bc Nioh is fun to play.

Happy this is coming back “soon” (June 19th, 2026). Season 1 was pretty underrated and will be interesting to see where they go now...

You AMD? If so hook up your settings. Haven't had a chance to try out Hatorade or Utnayan's suggestions yet. Too damn busy. I did d/l the PS5 demo just for kicks if the kids want to watch a ninja game. They like watching / playing Astro Bot and Spiderman.

In the first episode baby picks up a remote and bonks dad on the nose. My 2 year old picked up the Roku remote and looked at me. I was like “not gonna happen, buddy…”

Wow I totally forgot about Forever Knight… that’ll be my next rewatch since I just finished Andromeda and The Dead Zone. Also completely unrelated I put the old Dinosaurs show on for the kids to laugh at and my wife walked in and had an epiphany that she’d forgotten about that show. It was...

That was what immediately hit me after walking out of the first temple area into the larger space. Was waiting for that "Wow, this is Nioh 3!" But instead it was way more of a "oh... okay so it is like Nioh 1 and 2?" I'm not stuck on graphics and pretty VFX over gameplay, it was just sort of...

I'll check that out. Only made it out of the tutorial area or whatever after picking the spirit armor option whatever. Wish I had more time to dive in Nioh 1 and 2 were great. They included story summaries too in the in-game encyclopedia thing. Amazing how bad I always am starting out each time.

I'm not even sure he sleeps. He did post that the next 5 - 6 months his full-time job is writing this show. Which means he'll probably only put out 4 side novels instead of 8.

Sanderson was already irritated by Amazon's involvement in Wheel of Time when he signed on as Writer / Consultant. Hopefully he used that experience to leverage Apple for more creative control or input. I say hopefully, but that could also prove to be an issue.

I was underwhelmed last night with the performance and fidelity on my 9070XT and 9800x3d. All I did was turn it to very high though and didn't go through the individual screens or make an attempt to improve anything.

I’m not worried about you keeping the FBI out, I just think it is borderline anti consumer that they’d never let you have the code to your own safe.

Funny that Liberty would give the FBI a backdoor code but not you.

The stupid thing about home inspections now is that there are so many apps that automate the report process that you really only need to walk around and take your pictures / make notes. Apps can fully assemble the pictures, mark ups, comments into a professional looking report without (or...

I'll look at the list I have and see if anyone on their staff is similar or provides similar services. The list I made last year was definitely outside of the "home inspection" companies and specialized in new builds, foundation design, etc. But that's a good reference to use and do some more...
