I ended up doing a somewhat piecemeal approach and ordered a Meteor75 with a Radiomaster Zorro b/c it looked about the size of a Playstation controller and felt it would fit his hands better than one of the larger square ones. ELRS seems the way so tried to stay consistent there. The Analog...

Spy Kids - What a completely bizarre movie. I need to read the story behind how this got made and why everyone was attached to it. Not going to complain about Carla Gugino. The whole thing is strange even for a kids movie. Some real nightmare stuff. Very strange 6/10.

Yeah, a DJI FPV Controller 2 is only like $190 and should work or the Mini 3 / Mavic one is like $250. He's only 6 but I think he'd enjoy learning on the computer.

Is there a controller that can be used for drone simulators on PC that can then be used for an actual drone? I know the answer is yes, after reading about the DJI controller and one or two others. Maybe the question is, if I'm getting one for my son to learn to fly on the PC, is there a version...

Fresh on the heels of the Rothfuss announcement, this just came across email. Cradle Animated Kickstarter. Jay Oliva is involved, who I guess I should know from Batman and DC stuff. The goal is... ummm... $14.3M for 7 Episodes? Haven't really read the whole thing yet or looked at the goals and...

Interesting to think about House of Leaves as an ebook. The physical copy seems so tied to the story. The way the pages are jumbled and the writing is staggered, the snippets of evidence, annotations, etc. It is a somewhat difficult book to read because of that, but also helps evoke the sense of...

AKZYTUE 3.7V 4000mAh 606090 Lipo battery Rechargeable Lithium Polymer ion Battery Pack with PH2.0mm JST Connector https://a.co/d/iHVcl6K That was the listed replacement for the K4. Should be here tomorrow, weather slowed everything down a day. Purely based on thickness and connector type I bet...

Grim Oak Press is producing Special Editions of In the Name of the Wind and released a FAQ today. Going on sale February 7th. Producing 4 different editions: If those options aren't good enough for you, there's always the $3,000 version: Kind of torn on this since at the time In the Name...

My neighbor has one of these in his two car shop garage and it works pretty well. I want to say his is a little bigger though? I was going to grab one last year but never made it out to Harbor Freight. Kind of glad I'm out of commission this winter so I don't have to worry about heating the...

Keychron K4 battery is a total piece of shit and won't stay charged for more than a day or two now. Going to try and buy a replacement battery off Amazon and give it a shot. If that doesn't work will try to find something. Prefer wireless just for lack of cables.

“Certain” audiences.

I checked out the author’s site and he was promoting a novella coming out Jan 16th and mentioned pre-order copies were available from a bookstore in Washington. They mentioned signed copies were available but I didn’t see a link. Emailed them last night and they said just order the hard copy and...

Twister’s real protagonist was a Ram 2500.

The Mountain in the Sea: A Novel https://a.co/d/co7zDBx Just wrapped this up and enjoyed it. Not amazing but a pretty gif 1st novel. SciFi in that it is messed future so there’s some advanced tech, mostly AI related. But it centers mostly around communication with a non-human species and what...

The comments or watching the video may go in to more depth... Had to pause due to baby screaming. Not this is really relevant to the build at all. Then in the next frame there are two: Then when he initially sets his router up there's back to 1: But then when he aligns the mounting...

I'm sure I could go back a couple of pages (and I was going to look in to that list posted above from 2023), but, is Deluge still the best torrent program? Maybe I just need to look in to some usenet stuff. *edit: Ended up grabbing Deluge and had it up and running. Had an existing NordVPN...

I guess compared to modern Michael Bay stuff or other 80s action movies like Commando, original Rambo came off surprisingly not over the top, for me. Which added to the enjoyment and subverted my expectations. Yeah there were some parts but it was way way more low key and focused on Rambo's...

We need to do that. I showed Blood and Ice Cream movies to wife and she liked them all. She hasn't seen a lot of the others on the list and I haven't seen Baby Driver. Since we did all the Rocky's she wanted to do Rambo to see how Sly acts in those. Rock 1 - 3 are probably better movies than...

I can almost remember buying it at the convention back in Birmingham when my parents took me. Been sitting in a bin ever since moving out for college decades ago.

Random question. Doing some clean up found this from 1993. I can find eBay sales for versions that are X/1500 or X/500, but not this one that is /325. Not that I'm sitting here expecting it to be worth anything, just couldn't find it. It is signed by Joe Madureira, Harry Candelario, Adam...

Men will remember shit like that 30 years later, random piece of wood in the back of a box somewhere, know right where to find it without a second thought. Women will remember the 1 time you forgot to buy them coffee on your way home and kill you in your sleep 30 years later.

That YouTube video was almost endearingly cringey. Watched it in bed on my phone before falling asleep, maybe I missed something. Game looks interesting. Survival genre has never been my cup of tea but interested in trying new things.

If he squared two sides, you can also use a circular saw since you have your reference side. Clamp a guide and go through. Although you did say over 2.5”? I don’t know… I only use mine for plywood usually, not stuff that think. I still can’t do anything at all as I tore my bicep again two...

Screw you for making me go look that up. Also, thanks for the heads up.

Better Watch Out - Revisit from last year. Still think this is a 7/10 for a lower budget’ish Christmas “horror.” And a good take on the whole babysitter thing. Interesting to me that the director did this and basically disappeared. I mean sure this wasn’t amazing but it was hardly bad enough...

I thought that title went to Lexx? Oh wait you said movie.

I thought I remembered something in the afterword of Sunlit that said he was intentionally trying a different approach, not sure though. I liked it. Not my favorite but was enjoyable.

The additional side Cosmere stories have been Great and with the little connections to Stormlight it has helped keep the feeling alive. I’m confident that even with the jump we’ll get surprise novels, novellas, and short stories.

It would be HK... Seeing as how it is going on a shelf with a ton of HK firearm related stuff.

I'm looking for a hinge similar to the one below, but I would like for it to be at least 90 degree if not 100. It needs to secure the same way as this one, as in the "sides" of the cabinet. Found this one searching for "swing up cabinet hinge" but can't find a list of other options that would...

No idea what the source material was but this felt rushed. It could have been better. It wasn’t bad, not One Piece. If they had a few more episodes to develop character’s and relationships, training, power levels etc. Seemed like a very very fast 5 episodes.

It is just as bad on Roku. For about a week there it refused to let us log in. I think that is why I went and got the Tablo bc we were just trying to watch Amazing Race.

I asked this and was told no 😢

It felt way over produced to make as similar as possible to the show. The cut away to the minions running cameras and pressing buttons, for example. Just got annoying and was unnecessary. Not having a “host” creates its own challenges I guess. Devil’s Plan / Genius did okay with just bandage...

I enjoyed It and will watch Season 2. It felt a little disjointed towards the last couple of episodes. Maybe my interest just waned. It looked good visually but there wasn’t anything ground breaking or unique other than it is accessible bc it is on Netflix.

It was bait hah

Dead End - Pretty good. Ray Wise plays a great insane person. Good tension as the family goes off the rails and the Mom was great. Some real funny dialogue as well. Makes for a good horror film even outside Christmas Horror. 6.5/10 P2 - Also pretty good. Wes Bentley is a good weirdo obsessive...

In the “current animation” compare and contrast battle, I enjoyed this WAY more than Blue Eyed Samurai. They aren’t same and it isn’t worth comparing probably other than to argue on the internet… but this was way better and that generic girl power samurai show was dumb.

It took me a long time as well but I’m ready enjoying it now. It feels closer to Hades (purposefully as much of the game feels budget Hades) in that selecting the correct God powers and synergies are primarily important. Which goes in to loot and the Diablo-esque random drops. Prioritizing...
