    Health Problems

    A lot of people seem to do the dirty keto thing where they just eat tons of fat, sugar alcohols, red meat, dairy, etc. and basically just replace carbs with chemicals.

    Where are all the MMORPG games? lol

    The current AI craze is no different than the 7 times VR was going to change the world since the 80s or when all movies were going to be 3D after Avatar.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    You likely don't have two 'wireless routers', you probably have a router and one (acting) as an access point. 5 GHz spectrum is not 5G. 2.4 and 5GHz are for Wi-Fi, 5G is a marketing term for cellular carriers. Presuming your internet (WAN) connection through Telus is fine and you just want...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Episode 1 was the best of the three and that isn't saying much. I think that mostly boils down to the fact that everyone was so optimistic and there was still two movies left, so there's a nostalgia. It's also more care free because they didn't have to randomly figure out how to insert a war...

    Yea, the gas thing is more a price concern because we only have a circulation hood not venting, which means a bit more construction with. The install would be pretty painless because of access otherwise. I've seen people using cast iron get around the burner footprint problem I guess...

    Just did first spray of the year for mosquitos because we want to start using the back yard more. I was quoted 1800-2300 per season for professional spraying. This is my third year using a cheap tomahawk fogger and Proflex. Overall investment so far has been something like $480 including...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Ok I'm probably going to have to replace appliances in the next year or two. I'm going to either stay electric but go induction, or get propane installed. Does anyone have a modern induction range and how good is it? My chief concerns are constant low heat (versus cycling on regular electric)...

    Right it was all guild based and you basically strip mined disposable worlds. Of course the problem with that is no one gives a shit and anything and if a world isn't going well it's easy enough to just quit for a bit and go play another game.

    Nope I had 4 between like 38k and 45k. They just legitimately thought people would pay it.

    Unfortunately this economic situation is unlikely to be fixed without it getting way worse first. Anyone who knows anything is rare and expensive, and entry level laborers are the price of high end employees 10 years ago. It used to be my calculus was how much does the professional grade tool...

    Someone would do maps of all the fast food franchises and snack brands like bird migration maps or whatever. Half of the shit people bring up in here I've no idea where it even is.

    Warner Bros acquires rights to Middle-earth/Lotr, several movies planned

    Are people actually going to go see this though? I am a pretty serious Tolkien fan and I loved the original 3 movies. I was not at all interested in the show because of the butchery, and I'm just completely ambivalent about this.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    You some kinda noob? The experience really only declined later in TBC, though arguably the content is a bit more outlandish so people don't connect as much. The tipping point was when they cut the attunement quests and started focusing on streamlining.

    No, unlike you I wasn't reading Reddit. So it seems like you spent more time wrapped up into thinking how gay this was, while the people who just were pissed and spent 30 seconds won. You some kinda Republican?

    They don't want to be recognized as degenerates, they want to pretend they are "real" women. But also different and special. But still the same.

    Death and... Taxes.

    Dang like you actually have a tax bill and not just assessed value*old tax rate? Because generally the assessments are irrespective of budget. Everyone in our town went up like 20% last year when they did reassessment, but because budget only increased like 3% the tax rates got revised down...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yea I had considered adding some of the x35/x40 vehicles to the list. I think the M badge is just a shortcut to finding a well optioned. The dilemma is a lot of those more basic BMWs are not cared for and in meh condition, just like M cars that have been abused. The SLK looks decent, just...

    Looks like an amazing car, but it seems like pricing on those is still up there, clean one would be well past my price range.
