    regardless of energy cost, cannot recommend that AC unit enough. I have the 12K version in my south facing game room window and they it's so quiet that half the time I forget to turn it off when I leave the room for the night. It's also pretty energy efficient. I replaced the ol battle axe unit...

    FWIW I've been told by multiple doctors/surgeons that that route is worthless. Note: I am not a doctor/surgeon and have no dog in the hunt.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    I have youtubeTV , it's $74 a month now I think , it's basically cable tv with built in DVR (all on cloud side) and if you 'record' the show as opposed to VOD , you can fast forward through the commercials. Last time I was looking at this, YTV was the only one that let us FF thru commercials. My...

    my slow act 2 ass just finished with Balthazar, that was fucking intense! 1st go round I got raped, 2nd go round was almost an hour and I finished with my oathbreaker pally 1/4 alive, everyone else dead but I killed them all. Wow that was fun. Saved the game as 'holy shit that was intense'.

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Hmm there is zero chance I'll have BG3 beat before Starfield comes out and it's SF or this next AFTER I beat BG3. Looks like another game I can wait for a sale on.

    My $.02 ; Owner permitting was allowed in NC in certain counties for electrical work. I'm in NV now and I honestly don't know what the rules are as I didn't bother with a contractors license here. Look up the ordinances in the county the property is located in if you really care that much...

    Dune: Part Two (2023)

    Miles Teg is the man! Do not under any circumstances, read anything by the son. They are not real, it's a joke to confuse you and take your money. Learn from our mistakes. Read the Frank Herbert books and forget about anything else.

    When I was still in the field I cannot tell you how many times someone asked me if the power was on and I always replied 'i don't know' I worked everything like it was hot. 277v neutral one time will make you appreciate electricity, assuming you survive.

    53 here , I've had 3 myself. 1st one in late 40's due to stomach issues. The idea of a camera up your butt is crazy / fuck that / etc The reality of it is it's not a big deal at all, the prep sucks but the actual test you are not awake for. And it can save your life. Best of luck brah.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    mine is pretty much to help others, if my truck was on fire I'd try getting it out but would not worry overmuch letting it burn down. One thing I know about me is I don't panic. Funny semi related story: I am getting ready for work and getting ready to take a shower. Someone bangs on my door...

    Could not get into the cartoon SW shows , so I had no backstory on this other than what was in Mando and I liked it. Worth resub? Probably not, worth 'finding' definitely.

    I had a 12" Meade telescope and I live in a dark sky area. I had the parts priced out for the 2nd (dome w/ panels) observatory to put in my back yard.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I love these type of games, It's just somewhere between 85-100 hours in I get overloaded. Hell I built a whole new PC just to play Skyrim. If it's full of empty planets I probably would not like it.

    All of these type games (morrowind up) I grow bored of the world before I ever finish them. I recently reloaded a mod to combine fallout 3 + new vegas and grew bored before I finished 1 of the expansions I never played for new vegas. I'll probably get gamepass again for starfield, poke around...

    No way I'm finishing BG3 before this comes out so you my friends, are the mine canaries for this. Your feedback will determine if I gamepass or buy this. I'm sure I'll try it out, at least to show myself how old my 2019 era PC really is.

    Our local co-op has internet that's pretty decent for the $$. Best part is you can call and get a person fast that is local and fixes the issue. Down time of less than an hour total all 3 times I've had to call. I guess it helps that (I think) I know what I'm doing on my end. My 'cord cut'...
