    Woodworking

    My dad owned one for a long time and used it fairly regularly for home maintenance projects (never as a substitute to a table saw, that I know of). He still has all 10 fingers. I also used it, probably a dozen or so times, in place of a miter and for cross cuts for length on MDF that's already...

    The Netflix Thread

    There is no gay sex scenes or even overt gay characters, that I remember, it's just hinted at, in parts (there is girl/girl stuff though). The first 2 seasons are great, the 3rd season is still good, and the 4th season is above average when compared with most everything on TV today. Plus it...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    For your character, get the toolbox mod to do a full respec and change class/race? Also, haven't replayed this game in years, what merchant is that?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I can't think of a worse activity in WoW than grinding rep, which was a major contributor to burnout for me. So the human racial kept me raiding with friends longer because that 10% would equate to at least a week or two of chores that I no longer had to do.

    Fallout

    I wasn't even talking about the show, but @Homsar saying he uses a pipe wrench on nuts and bolts when he cant find (or is to lazy to get) one of the numerous better tools for the job. Show/game wise, it's kinda ludicrous that anything would be functional after 200 years without having access to...

    Using the wrong tool for the job is how you strip nuts and make more work for yourself, instead of walking over to your tool box or driving to the store to get the right tool. A pipe wrench is at least 5th down the line on tools that should be used if you have absolutely no way to get or fix a...

    I don't remember them saying anything definitive about the crop failure, outside of episode 1 and the lie that the "NCR" lady told of why everyone looked different and she was in charge. Lucy's brother then goes in with the security door dude to find that there was a general revolt against the...

    The Witcher

    I didn't watch the last season with Cavil in it (since he announced he was leaving before it even aired) as a way to support a gaming bro just trying to make the show true to the rest of the IP. I thought that was season 4, though, and the announcement above was that they were done after the...

    I haven't followed Mexican cartel violence since before the Wuhanic Plague, but the Pacific side was safer back then, as the Cartels seemed much less active there, for what ever reason. Stratfor used to give good briefs on cartel actions for free, but they moved all that to their paid service...

    Not glorifying steroid use is probably a good thing and that's the only way to become a mass monster. Just getting people to work out in this day and age is an accomplishment and knowing that anyone can get shredded, lean, and/or strong without the help of drugs should be a part of that.

    The Witcher

    Contracts were already signed and filming was probably half done by the time they got the numbers for season 4 in. Then months for the number crunchers to run the numbers and the suits to discuss what they want to do. By that time there is a good chance that it was cheaper or close to the same...

    Nah, it's called price tag switching and is a major form of retail fraud/shoplifting. With the advent of self checkout, it has become even more prevalent. That video is years old, but never saw if that guy ever caught charges. That half a cheese wheel is probably $1000+ theft which they posted...

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    If you are getting into Cabbage, here is a super cheap recipe from Poland/Eastern Europe called Haluski. It can be used as a side or a main dish. If used as a main, you may want to add cut up sausage or hamsteak. I add paprika for extra flavor and cayenne for a kick. In order to reduce the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I had a person in my guild that disliked spiders bad enough that they would have used a mod to change all the spider models. I didn't know mods to edit spiders out of games was really a thing until they said something about doing it for Skyrim. Blizzard kinda fucked themselves on this one...

    I would certainly trust an Asian woman to make a good game over the troons they usually roll out (not that Blizzard could manage that, as a whole). I don't want to watch the whole video but, from the short bits where I hear her talking, she sounds like she has a small bit of leftover accent?

    Fallout - New Vegas

    The only time I actually completed New Vegas was when it came out, with zero mods. I don't remember running into any game breaking bugs, although it's been a while, so the ol memory might not be 100%. I also don't know of a single game that doesn't have bugs, that never get fixed, but they are...

    lol, good choice. I would avoid Mexico when there are plenty of other beaches in the Caribbean. For example, the north side of Dominican Republic is supposed to be nice without the risk of Mexican Cartel violence.

    I haven't looked at FO 1/2 mods, but all Baldur's Gate 1/2 EE did, outside of the mediocre new areas/character they made, was compile a bunch of mods into a single package then made money off mostly other peoples work. If there are no UI update mods for FO 1/2 it probably means they are too...

    From what I remember reading last year, Netflix raised the price of their standard streaming package, then stated they were going to implement a plan supported by ads at half the price. It seems that is live for the US now and wouldn't be surprised if you have the same option in Australia within...

    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    From what I remember when researching the stuff years ago, people were rating 4 ATMOS speakers more important to the home theater set up than a subwoofer. Mainly due to the fact that a good center with good front R/L can cover a decent section of the base needs. In other words 5.0.4 > 5.1.0, as...

    Never looked into wireless systems/speakers. I vaguely recall reading something about bluetooth software processing sound poorly, as it relates to a gaming PC set up. It also somewhat defeats the purpose of a good receiver, since part of the cost is the built in amplifier. There might be...

    I'm a bit biased against Best Buy because they went through a period of selling absolute shit audio for the price they were asking. In some cases the manufacturer would get a contract with Best Buy and they would start maximizing profits by steeply cutting quality. It eventually caught up with...

    Don't know what your parameters are, but if I was going to be moving and upgrading in a year, I would rather spend my money on the beginning of a better system. If you're renting for the foreseeable future, then it's a bit harder to do a 7.1.4 (full atmos) system and may not be worth paying for...

    It's most like Jagged Alliance 2, as that was the big hit that came out when they were in early development for Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel. It just wasn't nearly as intricate/complicated as JA2. I think Jagged Alliance 1 was heavily influenced by the original X-com, so they are the...

    Fallout 2 is the best Fallout. After that, Fallout 1, then New Vegas. Fallout 3 and 4 need mods to even get them to mediocre levels. For New Vegas I think the unofficial fan made patch fixed the left over bugs, and a few of the GFX upscale mods wont change anything about the story or add...
