    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    idk, tractor(rider?) mower for a half acre seems like overkill. I mow almost two acres with a push mower. Yes, it takes a bit of time(~2.5 hours), but I rationalize it by saying I don't have to workout that day.

    The Expanse

    The last three books were not on the same level as the first three, but still quite good. The TV show adaption of the middle three books had the problem of lesser quality source material. But the adaption itself also felt rushed. Some minor characters in Marco's faction that were important to...

    The Expanse

    And instead we get Rings of Power. Probably could have easily funded the last three seasons with just a fraction the giant turd took. Continues to take. Comic book seems kinda meh. Maybe I haven't read the right comic books. But in terms memorability, books or tv shows/movies seem to have...

    The Expanse

    Weird timing on this bump. I was just remarking to my wife that Disney had wasted Daniel Craig, Gwendoline Christie, and now Wes Chatham by hiding them behind Stormtrooper armor. I know it's a trope that actors take off helmets at illogical times, but I kinda understand the flipside too. Was...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Mostly. I have no problem with adults wanting to dress up for Halloween, but they should be honest about it. It's also "for" the kids wrt protecting them. Can't let them just wander around the neighborhood.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Preaching is subconsciously tolerated when writing is good. Relatable characters and interesting stories makes you not question how Riker hasn't been 23rd century MeToo'd. The writing on Star Trek hasn't been that good for a while.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Resists are worse than that. I'm sure this isn't "new" to PoE, but it's where I first encountered it. Because the game assumes you have capped your elemental resists(non-negative chaos at this point too...), not only is it lazy design, but you get "gear lock". This is where changing out one...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    We blacklisted all connections to our pipeline machines partly for that purpose. Internal mirrors that are needed to build are explicitly whitelisted and that's it. No funny updates bricking your build, no hidden dependencies inserting themselves into your toolchain.

    Wheel of Time

    I'm not actually sure I'd recommend reading the books by themselves. The first half of the series is still good and a lot of us got invested as they were published. But as a whole, especially compared to what's available today, the latter half is really detrimental.

    The Netflix Thread

    I'm not sold on residuals. What other industries operate like that? The silly part is not whether what they were demanding was reasonable. The silly part was how the whole thing sounded when taken in context of who was going to ultimately pay: consumers already fed up with a myriad of...

    Would you be willing to forego media entertainment if it guaranteed the destruction of the industry?

    Wouldn't the freak out inherently become media too and thus requisite in said destruction?

    Path of Exile

    I've only ever run Frostbite as it's usually the cheapest. But I believe the bug is that alphabetical order of flammability after elemental weakness will mess up the curse on hit during the detonation chain.. You don't want a double curse on hit anyway, anything you oneshot(high likelihood...

    Path of Exile

    6 of the past 8 leagues have not gone core. 2 of those 6 have kinda sorta gone core. ToTA needs some heavy refinement so that progression in ToTA is more closely tied to progression outside of ToTA.

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Preheat to 450. The "slide the pizza in" is the part I don't like about using just the pizza steel. That requires a stupid amount of flour/corn meal or I'm just bad at it. I'll roll out my dough to the rough shape of my pan and then fit it with the palm of hand. I want it to stick at the...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    If you like thinner crust, pizza steel/stone is very helpful. But using just the steel/stone is a pain in the ass and it cooks the crust faster than the cheese. I'll start on a regular aluminum pan for about 7 minutes or until it easily releases from the pan. Then it goes onto the steel/stone...

    The ramp is definitely painful(get it?). I wouldn't recommend any serious bossing with boneshatter nor trauma support. The stun pulse chaining on boneshatter is pretty fun though, reminds me of old explodey chest. I'd say boneshatter is popular because it's probably the best skill for hitting...

    Yeah, that makes no sense. I don't see anything on his character that would enable either. Know if it's being discussed anywhere else?

    I have a character setup for these kind of tests in standard, I'll give it a try later tonight. Shrapnel Ballista explicitly says enemies can be hit by multiple projectiles. Jungroan is currently abusing this with Nimis. I think he's being disingenuous with how many returning projectiles hit...

    Mines are the only way I've played Hexblast. It was my main build that I finished the league with in 3.20, it was my starter in 3.21, and I'm prepping it now after trying a bunch of stuff in 3.22. FWIW, I did a poison PF version just yesterday. Sucks(poison kills too slow for the mines to...

    Is it something specific about that build? Hexblast doesn't seem visually intensive. I've played on my potato computer multiple time, no slideshows.
