You realize it yet allow it. Goddamn man. How much money and time have you spent with travel costs? Making more trips back and forth is just throwing good money after bad. Bring all the boxes with you and demand further discounts for for the time and money. If they don't give them, insist on a...

He becomes the greatest tyrant in human history in order to save humanity from people like him. Because Paul didn't have the will to do it.

It is to a certain extent, but it is so damn good. Leto II is both the greatest villain and hero in human history. No other book has had me just wanting to read endless conversations between characters.

For anyone who enjoyed the movie, I would highly recommend giving the book a try. It's reputation as one of the all time great sci fi novels is well deserved. Herbert's writing style doesn't work for everyone, but if it clicks for you, you can get stupefying levels of enjoyment out of the...

Spice extends life. Those who can afford it can live close to double a normal lifespan. In Dune the Emperor is in his 70s IIRC, but is physically closer to late 30s.

There are 6 books dammit.

Emachines man. A never ending sting of emachines that constantly need repair. So many hours of my life lost to them.

A force that could rival the Sardaukar was one of the Emperor's biggest fears. It's why Count Fenring got spooked when Rabban mentioned possibly importing prisoners as laborers on Arrakis, because he knows where the Sardaukar come from.

Watching it on HBO with subtitles and it's not. It's close, but not quite. The original: I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will...

Just got done watching it. It was overall very good, but not great. Visuals and audio were great, but tons of important details were glossed over or completely left out. It felt way too condensed. My biggest complaint is the dialogue though. Just like I felt after watching the trailers, It felt...

Yep. Don't use the link before the window opens.

If I ever bother doing a color coordinated build some day, it will be Noctua beige and brown.

So it turns out that the Pixel Pass has family plans for Google One and Play Pass included, but not for YouTube Music/Premium, which is a dealbreaker for me. I decided to just order a base model Pixel 6 since my Dad has been wanting to replace his old Moto G and he'll get my Pixel 5. I was in...

Everything but the music was bad. The action looked especially janky.

Seems like a huge difference for me. I reach in to my pocket for the phone, my finger naturally comes to rest on the sensor and the phone is unlocked before I can see the screen. Plus I even use the sensor gestures. I didn't play around with it for long, but the in screen sensor for my sister's...

I absolutely cannot stand Samsung. My sister switched from an iPhone to the Galaxy Note Ultra last year and I helped her through it. Great hardware (though the fingerprint reader was decidedly mediocre) dragged down by the software. If they made a Google Play Edition (pure android) like they...

Fuck Jamie Benn.

I appreciate you enabling my laziness.

Just cut that rate by 90%.

Debating the Pixel Pass. As a Fi subscriber it would effectively mean I get a new base model Pixel every 2 years for $480. They're giving away a pair of Pixel Buds A if you order by the 27th, which I've heard good things about. The main annoyance is the loss of the rear fingerprint reader. Not...

Way back when I was the overnight delivery guy for a bakery, I had a box for cops in the truck every night. They were normally the first ones to crack a doughnut joke. No powdered, no sticky glazed, and I never got a ticket.

Hopefully this is the game where they get all the typical Chargers shit out of their system and play better for the rest of the season. Herbert has been off all game and they pass to a rookie on 4th and 1 deep in your own zone?

We come out on top playing dueling interceptions and Vizcaino shanks his 5th PAT. Cut this idiot

If the Chargers can't figure out how run defense works this is going to be damn ugly.

I have hope that they'll at least be fun to watch.

Wings took no shit from the Canucks while managing to stay out of penalty trouble and win it. Greiss was excellent and Zadina needs to not lead with his face.

In happier news, it might only be ECHL preseason, but I'm finally at a game.

Larkin gets a hearing with the DoPS, but not Joseph or Palat. Clown league.

Goddammit. As disappointing as this is, it's better than I expected when the game started.

And fuck you Palat. Unfortunately Rasmussen couldn't quite go Larkin on his ass.

Goddamn Bert, welcome back.

You get a roughing! You get a roughing!

BERT HATTY!

Match penalty for Larkin and not for Joseph is bullshit.
