    HDTVs

    Fast forward a few years and I finally got my G series TV. Probably a good thing I got the G5 instead of G1. It's a lot more advanced now and since it's the last TV I'm getting for a long time, I ended up with a better one. The C1 was really good for a while but it wasn't a "forever TV". I'm...

    Service entrance? Yeah, that's what I figured, the protection got tripped on it and it's usable but needs to be replaced. The other one I'm using still has protection on it, also mad old though. Getting something newer/better for that wall. It's only for the five TV-related cords. I can't get...

    Using a different one right now. Turns out one of the two outlets in the wall behind the TV is dead. I'll need to get that fixed. Going to order a giant wall-based surge protector and plug everything TV-related into that. I reorganized the TV setup for the first time in many years, and bundled...

    Unearthed this surge protector in my box of old cords. When I turn it on, Grounded lights up but not Protected. What does that mean? Should I replace it? Need a cord hub for my TV and systems, to put behind the entertainment center, and the main surge protector is otherwise occupied (and can't...

    Dating

    I'm also sorry you feel that way. The right woman makes everything easier, not harder. If adding someone ends up being subtraction, then walk away from it. Adding someone might be a lot better than you think though. Lots of women don't mind giving a guy space. It's pretty much a requirement with...

    Huh, yeah, I guess I'm trusting this thermometer to be correct. The temps always seem spot-on. I think the bloodiness the other day was just a lack of resting. I'll test the thermometer though. Is meat temp not that important? I'm not trying to get a brain worm (then again I almost never have...

    Crimson Desert

    No, after 30 minutes of playing I just took this guy's advice: I was going to play it a lot on vacation but nah I'm good. Teaching myself to grill and catching up on some books instead, and I have 80 hours left over

    Nioh 3

    Yeah actually, I kinda did My favorite thing was farming Obsidian Warrior (Yasuke) for chunks of EXP mid game. Went from level 70 to 110 real quick and then flew through the rest of the game. I probably killed his ass about 50 times. Start the level (it's a boss fight only), cast Sloth, unleash...

    Yeah that was before I got a response on the wood question, got the chips purchased and was winging it. I move quick. This is interdasting. I will try it. Yesterday's steak (at 125ish final temp) was bloody as hell. I triple-checked the internal temps because it seemed super-rare. Would have...

    Nioh 3

    Yeah, I had to stay Dex so I could keep gimping bosses with a fusillade of kunais, feathers, and bombs. By the time I had to lock horns with them they'd have like 20% HP. It pissed me off that the only weapon type to scale off Dex (that I saw anyway) was Kusarigama, which seemed like a pretty...

    Pragmata (Capcom sci-fi game)

    I'll say this, I've done maybe 10 posts on Reddit over the years asking for help with various life issues I was trying to figure out. Serious shit, like dealing with medication withdrawals, driver's license issues, getting money back for medical procedures that never got finished. Out of those...

    Dark Souls

    Wow, not a lot of Dark Souls 1 players in here anymore. Well, probably not gonna actually take a swing at an SL1 run anyway, if everyone just does Pyromancers for SL1 then I already did the "challenge" and have nothing to prove by doing an SL4 that's way harder.

    Playstation 5

    I should probably play the few unplayed digital games I have on the PS3, since they're all things I want to play at some point and one of these years they probably won't work anymore for whatever reason. Funny thing is, they're all PS1/PS2 games that were just easier to get on PS3 for like $6...

    Tonight I did more of a slow cook rare steak (120-125) and added hickory wood chips to the hot coals before the food. The chips mostly just caught on fire and I waited for them to die down before cooking. Next time I'll put the chips on the charcoal in the starter cylinder, on top, before I pour...

    So, once the grills are already hot / on fire from the starter and I've poured them into the grill, put some hickory chips on top of them before the food goes on?
