NGL - Native Texan here who shudders at thinking about living in another state, but I went on a weekend work trip to NW Arkansas a couple weeks ago and it was flat our goregeous, perfect weather for spring, beautiful hills, and from what the reps I support in the region say very low cost of...

I've got an Ender 5 Pro and it's been a rockstar for me for almost 3 years now. Pretty sure it's almost pure chinesium. I've done a few mods (direct drive feeder, bed level Z stabilizing supports, Octoprint) but nothing insane. But also every 6 months I do a "maintenance" where I basically...

And then once every 6 months or so... Go around the machine and tighten them all again. ;)

Or the simple fact that the target audience for this movie wasn't born when the towers were still there. Hell, some of the PARENTS of the target audience of this movie might not have been born.

Read an article today that said ALL of the Quantumania cast is in fear of being cancelled for not having done ENOUGH about Major's allegations of domestic abuse. heh

This is pretty much where I am. Huge Dr Strange fan, loved the first movie. Didn't watch or even pirate the second. Loved the first Antman, and liked the second, didn't watch or even pirate the third. Already know Marvels will be a hard pass, and GOTG3 is around a 50/50 for me right now...

I thought you just needed to open an ETSY shop and then make a bunch of paper purchases from yourself to show the bank you're making $10k a week then they'd do everything else for you....

This plays into my longer term goal of waiting until the current real estate market finds a truly painful low, then buy 50-100 acres somewhere far enough out to build me "I'm going here to retire and eventually die" home.

Got really comfortable with the phrase "I'm not gay, but $50 is $50!"??

Drove from Dallas to Arkansas for a work event over the weekend. Nice drive, I enjoy it, good scenery if you can ignore the speed limit shenanigans a lot of small Oklahoma towns roll out. It's going to be a long Saturday, the event is 7:30am - 5pm and I'm going to be standing, talking...

I haven't seen it yet, but from conversations it sounds more like they made Peach as the more modern version of her from the games. She hasn't been a straight up Damsel in Distress in the Mario Universe in a pretty long time now.

That use of Beastie Boys hurts my very soul....

Not to mention in my work, I live and die in presentations delivered over Zoom. One monitor has to show what my customers are seeing as I present to it, and another (not shared) contains the side channel conversations so that the other people in my company involved in these presentations can be...

Would you buy a normal ICE car that would call home to decide if you could put gas in it? Or if you could only put in low grade fuel as opposed to better fuel?

The point would be to reverse engineer not just the base OS but the WHOLE thing so you could access all the cars features. But then control the unruly things in the OS you didn't approve of. There are a lot of android phones you can drop a new base image on and actually have a MORE functional...

I wonder what the over/under on time until someone "jailbreaks" a Tesla and installs their own OS on it..... Pretty sure I've already seen it done at DefCon, but that's rarely an easy to repeat in the field type of hack.

It went sideways.... https://babylonbee.com/news/disaster-on-mandalorian-set-as-lizzo-eats-baby-yoda

Essentially a bunch of ubquitous cold storage wallets. Yes, I see that becoming a thing. In a way we have something approaching that right now with the pre-paid debit cards. You can go to Walmart, get a card, put money on it, then use it as a debit card. Tons of people do this. That's...

I think we've all seen this coming for a while. They need to control the currency to control everything else. Defi and proper crypto directly threaten that because they aren't fungible enough for the desires of a central bank. They give people freedom to do what they want with their money...

This is kinda odd and I still don't understand it but... We have a large LG set in our living room, around 2 years old. We attached an OTA antenna and get a shitton of channels of which only a few are useful (unless you want to watch NCIS 24/7). But then at the end of the OTA channel listing...

Yeah. Doom Patrol Cyborg is definitely the best Cyborg. Aside from that I still don't take him as Blue Beetle. It's like they just NEEDED to recycle a name/concept. But they weren't able to really weave into the existing mythos, so they just decided to make a new character and make his...

.... when things that would have had you stoked beyond belief as as 12 year old are now "well what the hell am I going to do with that?" situation. Case in point, just emptied the bowl where I accumulate change, rolled the quarters, everything else I just dump in a coinstar. And I realized how...

You know you're getting old (on here) when.... https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/502377/jug-life-history-kool-aid-man Makes you nostalgic for the "good ol days"

I'm not saying he's going to turn out a shit movie here. I'm saying he's going down a dark path which probably won't "feel good" to a fanbase who have seemingly gone to these movies for "turn off your brain and feel good about it" entertainment. Serenity for instance was a great movie, but...

So far everything I'm seeing on this one says "Hello, I'm James Gunn and since I realize I'm done with this toy I'm going to burn it down in the way that makes you hurt the most because I really wanna be more like Joss Whedon" Anybody else getting that feeling from the trailers and all the...

Well we can at least tell they aren't Jewish..... Related... Did You Know.... Pillsbury makes a corn dog wrap for use at home? The shocker is, they're actually pretty damn tasty. Great for making morning sausage rolls.

The trick is.... they won't have a choice if enough of the global population goes behind it. And BRICS already represents something like 4x the population of NATO. Western world doesn't want to play ball? That's their problem if you have a stable set of producers and consumers all using it.

Multiple places I've heard "If only they'd cast Gina Carano..." in that role.

China has, for some time, been accumulating and hording up gold, so has Russia to a certain degree. In China you can go into the country to mine gold, they encourage it, but they only allow you to sell your gold to the government, and they aren't spending it anywhere right now.... Wouldn't...

I don't really want to go see this movie. But if any of the local theaters have these I will walk in long enough to buy an overpriced bucket of popcorn... That is a popcorn bucket sized d20 that opens up to store popcorn....

You sir, have not played in the groups I have then....
