Audiobooks are either amazing or catastrophic for me. You've got RC Bray for Expeditionary Force and what's his name on Dungeon Crawler Carl that I can dig, and then pretty much everything else that exits.

Seems to be free with Prime for me. May give it a go this afternoon.

Suntup Press just released The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie. Haven’t seen a lot of small press murder mysteries it seems recently. I read a ton of Agatha Christie growing up so am pretty interested. Like most releases these days I’ll likely just wait til they’re shipped and pick...

This looks about 1,000x better with vignette, chromatic aberration, and CRT turned off. That crap is terrible.

Jeez it it’s already October and nearly the 28th. I’ll be on a plane that day so should have some good reading time.

I saw this the other day when I was searching for idle games or something to do at 2am with the newborn. Maybe I’ll grab it now.

We were just talking about JKM and the few tools a couple of us have. This email popped up today with a countersink tool. Honestly I haven’t liked a number of countersink versions in my box; collet style, standalone bits, and I guess a more integrated style like this. His looks very interesting...

Hah that would have required the first winner, Richard Hatch, to not be an incredible degenerate that went to jail for tax evasion on his winnings amongst other things. And then went back to prison again for violating probation. This is a pretty big prize pool. Last season of Deal or No Deal...

Okay cool. I’ve only seen Circe once at this point. Trying to make it a point to do more of those rooms.

What’s the summon last enemy one? Still haven’t finished a run but am easily consistent with getting to Chronos, Phoenix or past that in over world.

At least cigarette smoking man won’t have to worry about smoke detectors.

I’m sure they’re just waiting for Stevie Nicks to be sober long enough to finish her voice lines.

The show was worse than this thread though.

A couple of interesting updates little things have popped up the last few weeks: Lividian Publications has a special edition of The Ferryman by Justin Cronin. I have not read this, but the printing looks pretty nice. $125 bones, 10 illustrations that I did not flip through since apparently...

Almost got Chronos my first try but couldn’t quite pull it off. Was using Rank V (or IV) Aspect of Melinoe Daggers. Had some pretty good Ice Boon, Cast Boons, all giving +Damage. Wasn’t familiar enough with the fight to do it 1st try though.

Bought these b/c the left stick rubber coating ripped on my PowerA wireless XBox controller. The realized I don't have the patience to take apart, remove the PCB, replace the whole stick, and put everything back together. Can I just buy the pads and stick them on? Don’t see why not but wasn’t...

I totally slept on Cast in this game. Only remember never using it in Hades 1 and oh boy is it different here. And the dumb thing is they beat you over the head trying to tell you to use it. Like “here are these totally useful Boons for Cast, please don’t ignore it!” Or “here are 50 mobs that...

And it isn’t just cost, it is ease of access. Pirating music and movies was like 2,000% faster to get it on my computer or iPod or whatever than trying to rip a friend’s CD or navigate the 1st digital stores where it was clunky and agreements weren’t in place for full artist catalogue, maybe you...

We had our baby last Saturday so haven’t been able to play at all. Hoping to get a break during one of his naps today and get back in it. Have been wanting to make progress. Been a while with a game and feeling that pull. Silksong didn’t have it the same way Hollow Knight 1 did, but this...

I do that to my neighbor all the time just so that he sees it every morning at 7am when his dumb retired ass leaves to go play golf and socialize with his stupid friends. Jokes on you buddy! I’m over here raising three kids, working 60 hours a week, and still find time to cut my own yard!

We used to have our b'days at Diamond Jims or Aladdin's Castle each year and they'd put everything on free play. That was the only way we ever made any progress in Dragon's Lair, it may have even been a sequel at that point, would have been 1992 - 1996 or so. There were a bunch of games (99.9%)...

I remember this one so much from our local putt putt, go-kart, arcade place.

I definitely liked the VA in the first game more. This isn’t bad but a step down to me.

For axe I really liked dash attack into special and was having good luck with it, just requires being a little too close. Probably my 2nd fav too.

I've only had a little bit but so far have done Cerberus a few times. Seems to be a decent step up in DPS / skill check as a ton of shit is going on simultaneously. Unlocked most of the weapons except the umm... damn, now I can't remember the name, after the 3x flying skull weapon, Revaal...

I can see that with the immersion. No on Cold as Ice. Will add it to my reader and work it in.

Have you read Tiger! Tiger! aka The Stars My Destination? I remember liking it and being surprised it was 1956. I need to revisit some of those older SciFi books. Was going through all the Masterworks at one time but think I stopped bc I couldn’t buy them all in matching editions.

I really want to do Hyperion after Farseer trilogy. Top of my list for sure.

I've only put about an hour into it so far, but it is good. More Hades and Hades was great. In light with the 1st game the 2nd area is a complete pain in the ass with projectiles flying all over the place and stuff chasing you down. Seem to remember area 2 being the skill check, maybe it was 3...

For what it is worth, I've spent the last week shopping around a LOT of Construction-to-perm and mortgage offerings from banks. We haven't taken it far enough to get contracts because we're still ironing out our total build price and amount we need, but the rates we're being quoted are dropping...

It'll probably still be an immediate pick up for me. Didn't play the early access but read some of the feedback. Hoping they listened to some of them. Hades 1 was great.

I mean the guy writes like 19 books a year. I lose very little sleep not being interested in his magnum opus when there’s an endless supply of interesting and engaging short stories / novellas he seemingly cranks out while taking a dump. Or whatever it is Mormons do. Eventually I’ll get back...

We have one of the older Q-series sound bars (can't find it at the moment in my Amazon history, bought it open box for a good discount) and it is totally passable for our living room TV. There are even times where the surround is suddenly amazing and makes me glance to the side like a cat is...

Stick, which I need to figure out replacement pads for them on my PowerA Fusion controller. The rubber on bottom of the left stick finally gave out after pressing down so much. These KontrolFreek Omni seem to be highly rated on Amazon. May need to pick a pair of those up.

My uneducated view on some of this just from talking around to different people locally (that are in similar positions to us) as well as reading what I can since we have a vested interest today is: There seems to be a big speculation game going on between parties holding capital and waiting to...

Yeah sorry, guess I was on another site called Thunder IPTV and the one in the other post is not the same. I’ll look into that other one and Burnem’s instructions above. Back when I was looking into this with Roku almost all of the offerings used IPTV Streamers or another app that was available...

Going to see if I can get this set up on my Roku and give it a demo. Didn’t get far bc the instructions on the thunder Iptv site are kind of jank, but I also had a 2 year old sleeping on me and writhing around. Got the IPTV Smarters app installed but haven’t figured out the configuration or...
