    Home Improvement

    I'm going through the same thing. I keep the house at 73 at all times (in Az, its like 110 outside), and have never had any issues. A few weeks ago I noticed the house was 76... then 77.. 78, and the Ac wasn't ever catching up. I called an HVAC guy and he came out and told me I had a leak, he...

    The Orville

    Yeah, I get the parallels, but there is a big difference between Data learning about human emotion or warring aliens learning they have common ground, and the ham fisted shit this is. We're what, 6 episodes in and 2 of them have dealt with suicide, this last one child suicide? And yeah, 70...

    The Orville

    Pretty much hating this season. I wanted funny Star Trek, why is it now weekly moral story in space? First season I get a guy and a robot out pranking each other for 45 minutes, season 3? 70 minutes of a trans alien kid wanting to kill himself until everyone applauds it and sneaks him into...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Yeah, my kids only got 2 or 3 spankings each in their lives, and I made a point of never hitting them in anger Well, to be fair I lost my shit one time really early on and spanked my oldest because I was just DONE with a string of little things, and he really didn't deserve it, made me feel like...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Haha yeah, one of my sons slapped his mom in anger at maybe 3 years old, and the speed at which I grabbed his arm, lifted him off his feet, and pinned him against the wall while loudly saying "YOU DO NoT EVER HIT YOUR MOTHER AGAIN, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?" Seemed to work. 99% of the time I'm the...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    Not even close to accurate. That doesn't take into account the HUNDREDS of games purchased outside of Steam and just activated on the platform. Also fuck, its more than I would have guessed and... that probably not even half my spend.

    The Boys

    I thought Butchers look at seeing Huey vomiting after the temp V was him remembering how sick he was his first time too.. and how he's totally fine after the second dose. Body's adjusting to the V was my impression.

    I keep shaking my head and laughing, like 8 weeks ago I create a Coinbase account and drop $48k ($42k bitcoin, 4k eth, and a couple 1k drops on randoms I see you guys talking about like Matic). Market starts tanking a couple days later, and am now at less than half that. We'll see in a couple...

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    Man, its probably not the worst movie or anything, but the only movie I've ever thought about walking out of a theater in was the 2003 Daredevil with Ben Affleck. Halfway through I leaned over to my wife and said "This is just the worst, I hate it, do you just want to go?" and she went "What...

    Yeah, I commute over 100 miles a day, and the wife is having to commute about the same for school. We both drive 30+ MPG cars and according to my bank, I paid $770 in gas last month alone. Neither one of us has an option to reduce that, it is what it is. I bet I'll edge up on $1000 this month...

    That was me in 2008, my son was born at 10am, realitor called at noon to say we closed (she delivered the keys to us in the hospital even), and less than a week later me and 300 other people got laid off. It was a really hard couple of years, but you can get through it.

    Holy fuck, my wife's friend just got divorced recently and has been wanting to move. Her work just approved her to work from home full time, and so she's free to move anywhere she wants. She asked us to look for places in our town for under 150,000. I started by shouting about how this is the...

    Apparently my wife bought some Bitcoin on Binance forever ago, before it was seperated into US. and non US. and now she can't access it. I'm sure there's a way to transfer that or something, but yeah, we'll have to figure it out. She's pretty sure it was like .25 of a coin, so should be several...

    Saw it yesterday, this is one of those "I will buy it and make everyone I know watch it" movies lol. I really liked the whole thing. For some reason I kept thinking about "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" while watching this. Not that they really had all that much in common, but in both movies I...

    So as to somebody who's brand new into this, I literally purchased all my Bitcoin less than 2 weeks ago on coinbase. I planned on then not touching anything for 10 years, but everything you guys are saying is making me think that I need to put it in a wallet I guess? Is that right, anyone have...

    Feel free to kick me out of the guild if you guys need room (if I'm even still in it). Went on vacation for a week, then got back and decided to try out Elden Ring... 3 weeks later still playing that whenever I have time. Have a ton of plans this summer as well, so I just don't see myself...

    I've been working on getting my garage organized and I made this a few days ago. Do I need full custom thing just for bits? No, probably not. Just had an idea and thought it would be pretty cool, and in the end I thought it was probably the best thing I've ever made haha. It's all just scrap...

    Thanks, I'll move this shit around! Yeah, I'm looking at figuring out how to put money into the S&P 500 as well, these Vanguard things are the only option I have at work. So, I'm thinking a percentage of my income will just auto go to these Vanguard accounts before I'm paid, then I'll manually...

    Anyone know anything about Vanguard funds? These are my options through work - I've never really looked at this before recently, just started getting interested in my future at the ripe old age of 42. Right now, my plan has everything I contribute going to "Target Retirement 2045", but I'm...

    Hey, so I have no idea about investing, and over the last 72 hours have watched something like 60 "investing for dummies" type videos. I typed up a huge thing here, erased it because I'm basically just giving a giant backstory thing that no one cares about, and I'll cut to the chase. A family...

    My understanding of logging is that the more players log who log, the faster it goes for everyone, and all get the same loot as if they were logging alone. So... any time someone logs with you, it actually helps you get the same amount but faster. I hope I don't have that wrong, because I log...

    I'll take the spot if its available. About to hit T2 on my Paladin, just named Onoes. Been playing everyday, sometimes for 10 hours, sometimes just to log in and claim shit. Think my total playtime is 150ish hours, still having a lot of fun.

    Yeah, I've been stuck like this basically the whole time. Started getting the hat one day... then it switched to another one and progress stopped. Nothing seems to give progress on the hat anymore (which I don't really care about, just confirming I'm seeing the same shit).

    Game just started downloading - 6gig in. Thank you guys for testing the name stuff! And yeah, next test would be seeing if it locks it to your account. I know Avatar of Nyx just tried, but I don't know if Brahma deleted it again, or if he still has it locked.
