    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I’m interested to see if I like it in person. If not two people have already asked if I’m willing to sell, so it seems low’ish risk.

    Idle Earl, home-made

    The second one looks good. Adds a little bit of character that the original rounded rectangles don’t have.

    New jacket for this Fall / Winter. Won't be here until December but have been wanting one since the first two production runs but missed out.

    Idle Earl, home-made

    Have you seen some of the stuff we've shelled out $5 for around here? hah. If I had seen it on Steam there's a high likelyhood that a low entry cost would have had me d/l it just to try. But that's easy for me to say from a consumer standpoint and doesn't take into account any of your time and...

    Alien: Earth

    The slow backwards move across the window in the first episode was like seeing a troll meme in action. It was hilariously cheesy and a little too on the nose.

    Alien: Earth

    The first episode was great. Just the first 15 minutes or whatever on the Maginot were enough to get me drawn in to everything. It has a certain amount of "noah hawley"-ness to it, but it isn't like you're rewatching Legion or being beaten over the head. Just solid so far. I honestly didn't...

    There have been a few setbacks on the Kickstarter project but they provided an update, looks like they'll be shipped mid-November if things hold up. Feels like a huge gap between the last three and this three. Hope they have everything ironed out for future releases. I'd still really like to...

    Idle Earl, home-made

    I like the concept and what you put together, it'd be cool to see a new iteration or whatever else you had/have in mind. These little idle shit games are crack for me b/c I don't have to pay attention. Hell, I've had The Tower idle game running in Bluestacks for a year and a half b/c really all...

    Idle Earl, home-made

    Not sure, I’ve been pretty afk most of the day and not doing much / progressing since that last post. Still running and I RDP’d in to check my money, bought Master Wizard and went back to hanging out with friends at dinner. oh, here’s the answer on the comment thread below:

    Idle Earl, home-made

    I'm at 26.2% afer 7H and 21M. So I'm not sure what moves the metric or if it is purely time based. With the icon of the one enemy I had originally assumed it was an incentive for killing or getting past a certain point, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Just went afk for an hour or so to...

    Idle Earl, home-made

    Tried to get Grok to reverse engineer me a save script with infinite resources but it kept failing import lol. It parsed it just fine and pulled out all the relevant stats. I didn't give it any restrictions or suggestions for what to set levels to so it may have picked stuff out of bounds.

    Home Improvement

    I had a random instagram thing today about some kids starting a concrete repair business and not knowing what they were doing. As usual I just skip the video and read the comments for people telling them what they should do. Most of the comments suggested using: Concrete Crack Repair These...

    Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

    Yeah, finished it this morning and while I don't completely retract my previous comment, the last 30 minutes or so of the movie get pretty bad. Once the kids are fully a part of every scene and the whole giant dome head dino comes into play. Maybe they just needed to trim like 20-30 minutes off...

    Wasn't there a thread about this that someone made? Duck Knight or whatever? Oh this is idle and not roguelite... Who made that other game?

    Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

    Checked it out tonight while working and I mean, it isn't the worst? Felt like it was better than the last one or two. Definitely wasn't bashful about getting the actors / supporting actors eaten. My expectations were like SciFi channel low so maybe that explains the lack of total and utter...

    The Callisto Protocol (Survival Horror)

    The new Dead Space game was just called Dead Space but it came out in 2023 and not 2008. There was some initial blowback over changes made to characters and graffiti if I remember correctly, but I think it was okay outside of that? Steam has it as Very Positive which is unexpected given what I...

    Hopefully that “..and Season 3” doesn’t mean something stupid like “Here’s 6 episodes now we’re going to hold back the last 6 for 3 months and call that Season 3.” This is something I’d love to go back and do Season 1 again since our oldest is 8 and may be a little easier on him than when he was...

    You can also look at a 6” random orbit. That’s about 40% larger area but you’ll pay marginally more for sanding discs. Or! Or! Hear me out since you make table tops… https://www.grizzly.com/products/grizzly-12-1-1-2-hp-baby-drum-sander/g0459 Mostly kidding

    Are you looking to improve quality of sanding product or quality of sanding experience? Everyone’s pretty much said sanding is miserable. I went from a cheap Black and Decker plug-in that was probably 15 years old to a 3M Xtract and saw an improvement in both, but it wasn’t magically not a pain...

    Wednesday

    The first season was kind of a quirky well done YA’ish thing. It wasn’t offensively bad or anything but a step above CW, obviously higher production values, etc. Haven’t had time forgive the second season a chance yet. Wife kind of wants to rewatch Season 1 as a refresh. I have a weird thing for...

    New movies that dont deserve their own thread.

    We got through the first half of Monte Cristo tonight. It is funny that I have three different editions of that book and never saw the Caviezel film. Certainly a whole lot to condense into even a 2 hour movie. Guy Pearce is great.

    Alien: Earth

    Ripley had a nice setup as final girl from Alien so there was no issue going into Aliens and understanding she had seen some absolute shit and Paul Reiser can shut up. And the other marines were badasses where they weren't trying to have Ripley one up everyone. It was just smarter than...

    Gonna laugh when Gosling just plays the same character from Drive except this time it is an X-Wing and he still spends 75% of the movie standing around silent and grinning like a creeper.

    The arial doesn't do it justice. That retaining wall in the back is like 10' away and everything above it is useless as a yard. The front yard is also sloped and virtually unusable.

    Just to get back on track from the stupid rice derail... Seiko released the heritage SRPL91 which is a modern replica of the watch Gene Kranz wore as Apollo Flight Director during Apollo 11 and Apollo 13. I wish I was a photographer because there's some idea I had. Unfortunately, I am not so...

    Yeah, that was the other depressing thing about everything we saw. The McMansions come on like .2 acre lots. We play outside in the back as much as we can and there's virtually no room for them in these houses.

    No, I definitely wouldn't argue that "need" is the right word. We did need to see that to know we don't want it though, so it was an important step in the process. We have (will have in Oct) three boys and we're both full time WFH so we're falling into the trap of wanting 3 rooms for the kids, a...

    Oh my God looking for a new house is depressing. We're still probably (hopefully) 18 months from moving but spend yesterday driving around to a few open houses and holy shit I want to kill myself. We looked at this $950k 4,400 sq ft new construction, and it was just the most sterile and soulless...

    Yeah, I played with mine all weekend. My red dot was zero'd very well. Blew away a couple of ants and had the kids scouring the house for flies or mosquitos but we never found any, almost went out side and started plugging stuff around bushes. Shot my hand with it and damn thing stung pretty...

    I would be kind of nervous with those and the ability for the table to rack side-to-side without any sort of cross support. Even the underside view doesn't show anything. May not be an issue but was the first thing I checked b/c I've had that problem in the past. I guess there's a couple of...
