It looks interesting but $20 is a little much for me to try out a roguelike/lite when there's a ton of $10 options out there.

Finished Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay about a week ago. I ended up liking it a whole lot more than expected and was pretty critical of it at the start. It had a nice balance to me of descriptive language and easy prose to get through for a fantasy novel. Ended up reading it fairly quickly by my...

Speaking of fans... Went ahead and bought this for our nursery b/c the one I bought 2 years ago for our 2nd boy is a total piece of junk. It is remote only, no pull strings, not dual-wired to the switches for fan and light control, so when the remote doesn't work there's no way to just turn off...

Are they though?!

Not content with already dying in a Robin Hood production, Sean Bean is trying to go 2 for 2?

I mean Steven Kostanski has a thing and I don't hate it. Psycho Goreman was actually pretty great and I remember liking The Void too. I'm down for this.

Bro…

Yeah I have a Asus USB-C one for work travel. For some reason one day it stopped working from my USB-C port and just keeps giving me a DisplayPort unsupported error. Another one of those annoyances with my stupid Lenovo. Not that the monitor works any different really off of regular USB port...

I just grabbed a $60 10.1” off Amazon. We’ll see how it works!

Man I need a small monitor like that to help setup my NVR when I add a camera. The NVR has HDMI or VGA out and I’ve just hauled a spare monitor in there. I’ve got a power strip for external power… hmm just reminded me when I saw your picture.

Ready or Not was pretty good, worth a watch. I posted in the Recent Movie thread I watched Borderline that she was in and it is about a 4/10. She wore a wife beater and pink boy shorts about the whole time (I think, already kinda forgot) so there is that.

I only use my laptop once a month for a week while traveling and my travel will be restricted for a while after baby is born, it was just fresh on my mind because I traveled last week and fought with it the whole time. We'll see in a few months. Could just need to be reimaged which isn't a big...

Propoganda numbers lol. Mythic seconds and now this!

This was pretty good. I didn’t find it slow at all really but it did accelerate towards the back half. Worth the watch though.

Ah, this is the one A24 dropped and Bleeker St picked up. Forgot about that until the Bleeker logo popped up. Could be interesting to watch.

I’m about to throw my Lenovo X1 Carbon out the window and just get a MacBook.

I may take a gamble and try that Leap v2 in a couple of months. Wish they would reintroduce the headrest as a better / more useable option. Current chair I've been using for a couple years has one and I have gotten use to laying back. Haven't really done much research on their channel other than...

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13650814/ Was pretty bad. Not even going to argue with the 5.4 IMDB. Samara Weaving was the best part. Second best part was the soundtrack and really the odd "duet" scene between her and Alba Baptista. The rest just was extremely meh. The dark comedy genre or...

I need to replace my office chair, was looking at that one or I think it was a version of a Logitech x Herman Miller? I’d have to go find the Reddit threads again, this was a few months back. Problem is that I can’t remember if this current one was a gift from my wife, or if that one is at my...

Graphical issue. With three digits of +income% it breaks the divider between popup sections.

I wanted to do this in my office also but the clearance between the top of the window and the ceiling is too narrow to mount the unit and I have floor to almost ceiling bookcases on either side of the window. Like no place to mount the dang thing.

I didn't even notice that either. Pretty funny.

I never finished reading them myself either. They weren't terrible I just sort of dropped it I think.

I've been doing some reading and spending too much time seeing how to approach the home build. So here are more stream of thought notes to try and organize my thoughts... I'm using "mortgage" interchangeably with total escrow payment It seems like there is a benefit (currently) to going through...

wave 700 lol. I got to 1,000 before rebirthing the 1st time and then 700 and decided to do the 4x rebirth

Dang didn’t realize bestiary unlocks were there. Does it carry over to rebirth? I rebirthed at like 700 before refreshing 😀

I'm also just kind of saving up for each tier of unlock as it makes sense now and sort of ignoring arena income. Unlock Witch Doctor, wait a bit, unlock Gold Per Dagger, wait a bit, etc... There's a big jump between Master Wizard and Necro (I think?) where I'll probably have to go back and...

I'm looking forward to documenting my pain and suffering here for everyone to revel in, when the time is appropriate :) We got another list of available parcels in the new area from builder this morning. We drove through more Saturday and the old saying is ringing more and more true. Location...

Have not only purchase / sold my own house or whatever a few times, but yes I have factored in contingency. That’s where paying for the lot would come in and dip into what our current liquid assets would be. Not looking at my spreadsheet / napkin math right now, but basically depending on all...

Mark Lawrence is doing a thing where he’s putting 4 authors vs ChatGPT 5. He did it a couple years ago with GPT4, but guess I missed it: https://mark---lawrence.blogspot.com/2025/08/so-is-ai-writing-any-good-part-2.html The actual stories are here a little ways down the page after some...

I’m betting we end up closer to $220. Everything we’ve looked at, new or old, seems to be between $180 - $228, just scrolling back through our Zillow list. So I was kind of taking a dart throw in between. It will really help having a floor plan nailed down. If it ends up being $220 it is still...

We spent today driving around looking at lots in a new area about 15 miles further west out of town from where we are now. Have been talking to a couple of builders also and are leaning more toward this route. The last few weeks of open houses have just been sad and uninspiring. This would also...

I need to copy my saved game script and reload I guess. Any risk to just refreshing and it not picking up my progress?

Super early announcement from Conversation Tree Press as this isn't scheduled to be released until 2027. Don't believe a pre-order date has been set yet either. I am not familiar with this title at all, but seems to have a good history. May be of interest to someone here. I'll probably bump...

I thought there was some noise about Antony Starr from The Boys playing Wesker. Was that just fanfic? I never clicked on anything or looked into it.
