    Wait, what? I thought Jug has been a X-men villain for 40+ years.

    The Video Thread

    Posted in the weather thread, but good enough to go here. Dude chases a mile+ (1.6km) wide tornado (probably) and gets within a 100ish yards (91m) of the wall: He also chased 3 other "smaller" tornadoes, on that same stream (link: 1:14:56 and 2:51:32).

    Weather

    I've tried to chase tornadoes before, but never get "lucky." Last time was when I was out in the field, driving to a job and the weather got bad. My co-worker was going nuts about driving toward the storm, so I had to turn around...

    Anyway, here are some videos of yesterday's tornadoes: A (mile+ wide?) tornado in Iowa: Different view of the same one (probably). He gets rather close, at the end (he also chased 3 other "smaller" tornadoes, on his stream (link: 1:14:56 and 2:51:32): No sound and all you can see is...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I'm super paranoid around electricity, but that looks like none of the batteries hook up in parallel until they are plugged in to whatever item interfaces between the batteries, the house (inverter?), and the car. Although it also looks like he used a male outlet on the battery side (at the end...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    The demon must been getting some good hits/crits/saves to kill the mindflayer so fast. For tactician, most of the time he should last 4, maybe 5 turns with good rolls, since the mindflayer AoE stun seemed fairly hard for the demon to resist and he usually fires that ability off right away.

    Get gud son, and read/listen. The mindflayer friend tells you to get to the ship controls, meaning you don't have to kill a single thing on the last fight of the tutorial, if you don't want to. Of course most people are going to kill at least the first two imps and people who read spoilers are...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That Tesla is like most other 4 door cars in that they are "ugly" but usually make up for it in other areas. If going by exterior looks alone, I would rather have a 2020 Honda Civic Coupe.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Well, if you are counting Pluto, it would be planet 13 or 14 (not including Ceres), since there are multiple bodies around the size of Pluto in the Kuiper belt (which Pluto is also in).

    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...

    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...

    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.

    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...

    Fallout

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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...

    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?

    The only time I actually completed New Vegas was when it came out, with zero mods.

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.
