    I always love seeing peoples Sonarr calendars. You can always tell who is married or not.

    Verizon launches gigabit FIOS for $70/month

    They kind of had to with DOCSIS 3.1 right around the corner. Speed doesn't really mean shit if they put in low data caps, especially with everyone switching to streaming TV.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I honestly can't wait to see this. I want to see how bad it is or if they can actually salvage it since my expectations are so low. As much as I enjoy a train wreck, I want a good Star Trek show that does well so they don't fucking kill the I.P like they have been trying to.

    The Handmaid's Tale

    I triggered the fuck out of a bunch of women today who brought this show up at a baby shower. They tried to say this is what a Trump America looks like. I simply replied that nope you are all here still talking shit about him instead of making me a sandwhich and this is what Islam looks like...

    I'm enjoying it but I personally hate the flash back story telling style.

    Islands of Nyne: Battle Royale

    It's just very generic and not anywhere near ready. Now it is in pre-alpha and isn't even on steam early access yet. I still like the concept but it's in a pretty bad and boring state right now. Save your money at least till they start letting people stream it and you can see if they have...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    That was my hope that the Switch would have been compatible will all the DS games. This would have made it a no brainer to me and it would have had an instant collection of awesome games. VC from day one with adding more and more classic games as time goes by and it would have been amazing.

    HDTVs

    Better Call Saul is on Amazon at 4k around a day after it airs on T.V. This is for purchase. If you are using Sonarr or something similar to automate your Tv stuff you might want to set the quality to 2160p and wait a couple days longer to get a superior picture.

    Islands of Nyne: Battle Royale

    Islands of Nyne: Battle Royale Dev Update #6 Closed alpha goes like the 28th for weekends to start with. Can pick up a key for $25. Yet another Battle Royale game going into alpha soon. This one looks pretty good with an interesting concept of the ability to have a battle royale with...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Pretty interesting. Isn't it possible for there to have been multiple migrations that failed until one actually survived? They might ahve just got real fucking lucky finding a very early site that was preserved and those humans actually died out before they could build up any sort of civilization.

    Cook the pasta in advance and rinse it off so it doesnt stick together and cools down right away. Put in ziploc bag and refrigerate. Have the cheese sauce in the slow cooker and put it on low for the several hours before it is served. 15 minutes before serving take out pasta and mix it in...

    Mine is based on this with my personal changes. Modern Baked Mac and Cheese With Cheddar and Gruyère Recipe I use a whole box of elbow macoroni like a normal person unlike that modernist cuisine portion bullshit. Preheat oven to 400 degrees(murica fuck yah degrees). 3 cups of whole milk with...

    Writers Strike and Unions

    The quality has improved big time. Way more serials now which I would think requires more talent then shitting out filler. I think they should restructure things big time where people wear more hats but have contracts with networks so they are employeed on multiple shows but are payed...

    Writers Strike and Unions

    I don't envy you. Being in a Union is very fucking stressfull and was one of the things that gave me enough of a kick in the ass to change career paths. The constant worrying about the next CBA and adversarial relationship with your employeer is total fucking shit.

    Writers Strike and Unions

    Also it is possible to get contracts with networks or just shows? As was mentioned many shows are 10 to 13 episodes now instead of 24 which has reduced the pay. Sounds like you need to work on two different shows to make it work now.

    Writers Strike and Unions

    Even without having all the information I would probably side with you. Hollywood has a track record of bullshit from accounting to just flat out abusing talent. You raise the pay level of the bottom tier writers and the health plan would most likely take care of itself. You also never know...

    Writers Strike and Unions

    After reading more about your health plan. Lower payed writers which I am going to assume is the majority of your Union have a healthplan that is way above what they would have in any other industry. They are bleeding it dry and aren't willing to contribute more for that level of coverage and...

    Writers Strike and Unions

    I guess I really don't have a problem with writers wanting more money for their craft. Especially since it sounds like very chaotic employment. Expecting the companies to bail out your health plan is bullshit. Do you know how much they contribute right now per month per employee or whatever...

    Writers Strike and Unions

    I have helped negotiate CBA's for and against Unions. Unions are only as good as their leadership and members. From my own experience the members usually have stupid demands and think they are worth way more and should be payed way more then they actually are. Unions actually ran better when...

    I thought he was just using Taylor's analysis to justify the short because he had inside information? Taylor already knew the analysis was bogus and was just being used for a paper trail. That's why she wanted to get a read on the prosecutor to see if they actually had anything before she...

    What Soygen said. It's just pure cheese flavor and the best part when you reheat it, it goes back to being just like it was before instead of that stuck together block when you do it the bechamel way. It also gives you the ability to use any damn cheese you want instead of being confined to...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Rey is a Disney princess with a classic Disney origin story. They made it vague enough in the first movie so they could go in any number of directions with the remaining films. It wouldn't shock me if they used a combination of fan theories to basically crowd source her story.

    I watch a lot of Summi1g and this donation shit blows my mind. I give these streamers a lot of credit for taking advantage of a market. I just don't get why anyone would donate money to a streamer. He right now is easily making 1k a day in just fucking donations. He literally complains about...

    The game is very fun and worth the money. I would wait till they do more optimization because there is a high chance it will run like shit on your computer.

    I guess I should have clarified. There are craters near the poles that are always shadowed in darkness which allows the water to exsist there in greater concentrations since the sun hasn't stripped it away. This is where it makes the most sense to get it. You are correct that there is no dark...

    I agree with that. Untill we can actually have automated manufacturing on the moon or anything close to it, there isn't much point. We still need to figure how the fuck we are going to not only get heavy equipment there or even mars, but heavy equipment that can work in those enviorments to...
