    Car ?'s

    True, it would probably add a bit of battery life, just from getting it away from the engine, and closed cell batteries are the kind that you would want to use, if you moved it to the trunk. Maybe if I get adventurous with interior work again, or when the current battery goes out and I need to...

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    I remember having a great time in Vanilla at our regular pop-up Tauren Mill VS. Southshore battle royals, but just because it was the same 100 to 150 people (rotating in and out) starting shit every Sunday (or when ever it was), in order to keep it regular occurrence, didn't mean it wasn't a...

    Woodworking

    It also depends on how tolerant to cold you are. Can you handle it being ~50 degrees? I've used a regular ol' cheap-ish electric heater to bring a 3 car garage up to low to mid 50s, when it was in the high 20s outside. Similar to this, but 2005-10 technology (would go out, pull the cars out...

    Looks interesting. Haven't played a good RTS in at least a couple years so will put it on the to-play list. Hopefully I don't forget about it by the time I get through the current backlog. Here is a video overview of it that was pretty good:

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    Doing anything considered griefing is toxic. Not that I am necessarily against it, as the freer the PvP game system is, the more griefing you are going to get; opting in for PvP means opting in for toxic behavior. Learn to deal with it, or don't PvP, but if people who love PvP ever wonder why...

    Car ?'s

    If my car is cooking out in the parking lot for 8+ hours in the Texas July Sun, is there going to be a noticeable temperature difference between being under the trunk lid, or under the hood? I hate battery maintenance, so I switched to close cell around 2019, then the pandemic hit, my daily...

    Gaming and general purpose monitors

    Can you weld or are you close to a wall where you're wanting to sit? Some monitor mounts will fit around a 1" iron pipe (like THIS, Amazon has it's own house brand of the same size too). So, you can either buy a steel plate that your chair can sit on, then weld up a pipe to the position you...

    Blade (2025)

    Blade is still one of my favorite hero moves. I would rate it better than all DC movies and all but 3 or 4 other Marvel movies (IM1, GOTG1, A:IW, A:EG), although part of that is probably due to what age I watched Blade, vs what age I watched the Marvel movies.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Hold down left CTRL and see where npc sight cones are. Make sure you are not trying to sneak in their line of sight. The Tieflings should clear out from the vendor area, after you talk to the main guy, after getting through the gate. Here is a quick video guide on the basics: I liked the...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Level 3 Bard can get expertise in Slight of Hand, so they should become equal to rogues at that point. Sneak doesn't matter, because it only gets rolled if you pass into an NPC's sight cone; which you shouldn't, if you are doing things right. A Bard can cast Cat's Grace on themselves, which is...

    Of course Chuk would like Donnelly, since she looks like something they trolled up on the Jersey Shore. She looks seriously anorexic in the picture above, but sports that Jersey trash look, in most other pictures I found. Emilia Jones at least looks kinda/sorta muscular and she doesn't have a...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    If you are in the Gauntlet of Shar, there is a pop-up message, that you have to hit yes/no or OK (don't remember which), that tells you if you go past "this point" things will change (some vendors may leave). There is a quick travel circle at that exact point, though, so it's easy to go visit...

    You have to lock the vendor into conversation before casting fog/darkness on them. Sneaking up to them doesn't matter. You can see their vison cone in sneak, so you can stand right next to them and go into sneak, as long as you are not in the vision cone in front of them. Once they turn to great...

    Tip 1: Use a party member to start dialog with vendor, then in the bottom left corner of the screen, it lets you select your thief. Walk up behind the vendor, enter stealth, then pick the pockets. If you get caught, it will cancel the conversation, but until that point, the vendor wont move...

    You were obviously trying to kill one. Now, you wont get caught, as long as no one says shit, but if you don't know it's illegal with a heavy fine, you may be more likely to say something to someone that may report you. Fish and Game wardens are a sneaky bunch, and kids cant keep a secret for...

    Money is hardly a consideration when the US government is paying for it... It was still a good idea to have a backup program in place, in case Space-X failed. The chances of that are now only in the case of bankruptcy, though.

    Off hand, anything over 30% seems absurd. The mass Indian extinction event theory, due to the Spanish invasion, would certainly need to show some solid vectors of how the various diseases spread. I would assume they have that, for it to get any traction at all, but then again, it could all be...
