    The Mandela Effect

    Found something interesting. One of the main Mandela Effects seems to be that people remember "No Luke, I am your father" when it's just "No, I am your father". The latter is definitely the case in modern releases of the movie, but now I'm wondering if the original theater run really was what...

    Everquest Memorabilia / Collectables / Figures / Artwork / Posters / Irontaail's Viper

    And also Xenogears and Final Fantasy Tactics. It doesn't get any better than that. I've got the EQ big boxes for Classic through Luclin, then took a break, then have GoD through SoF. I love the SoF box with Big Bynn firing a laser into the sky. I have the poster of that image as well somewhere...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, I slow-rolled my way through the tutorial earlier just to finally do that zone, and it was bustling with tons of people the entire time. Not bad at all for two days after server-up. Sounded like a lot of new people too which is super-weird for EQ. Yeah, I was manhandling higher mobs with...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, 65-70 is fast in Paw. 70-75 is fast in DoDH mines. Like maybe 5 hours for 70-75 IIRC. 60-65 is generally much much slower, especially in-era. It was intended to be another 50-60 type grind, which was already intended to be another 1-50 type grind. 1-40 on Vaniki isn't bad at all. I think...

    Prey

    I liked the part in Predators where the Yakuza katana-fights a Predator in a field. Tremendous scene. That whole movie was underrated IMO. Had an interesting premise, and taking place on another planet (well, moon) was a welcome change. Not as good as Predator 2 but I'd put it right behind it...

    2000 Mules (2022)

    Is there any rational, logical explanation for this recurring theme of a spike in the graphs? Is this found in any prior elections? I'm sure someone here has scrounged up some similar graphs from 2016 etc and checked for any similar incidents. I'm guessing that this isn't a normal thing to see...

    SLC Punk (1998)

    Random thing to see pop up on here. Had a bunch of friends in the late 2000's who were really into this movie. So we all sat down one day and watched it for me and another person who hadn't seen it. They were acting like it was one of the best movies ever. Unfortunately I just didn't "get it"...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    I heard that DC Comics(?) removed "the American way" from Superman's "truth, justice, and the American way" catchphrase after the George Floyd death. Did they ever change it back? Was it only in the comics or did it get to the movies as well (Snyder Cut, I guess) and I just didn't notice it...

    RIP Ray Liotta dead at age 67

    Holy shit. I just watched Goodfellas this evening with my mom. Neither of us has cable news or anything so we didn't know about this, and when I went over to hang out she asked if I wanted to watch a movie and out of everything available, Goodfellas just popped into my head. After the movie I...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    "It's too hard!" screeches Jim Sterling and his ilk. If there were an Easy mode in this game, this tweet would mean very little. Since there isn't, it's awesome!

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    There's no real true route because so much of the game is optional, but as far as level ranges go, the order is probably something like Limgrave Liurnia Siofra River Altus Plateau Caelid Mt. Gelnir Nokron/Nokstella Leyndell Capitol Mountaintop of the Giants Mohgwyn Palace Farum Azula Haligtree

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, if I'm there with a charm pet or a necro pet I sic it on everything in my path to keep PHes clear. As a Shaman that's way more of a hassle though. And usually I'm the only one clearing PHes even when the hill is crowded, which is annoying as shit. This guy's beef seemed to be that I cast...

    ^ Yikes This just in: It's KSing if someone is mid-cast and you land a spell first. Bolts are slow! It isn't fair!

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Enchanter seems to be super overpowered. The charm spells have all been expanded in effective level range (Cajoling Whispers charms up to 56 instead of 45 or whatever it was before) and landing spells on red-cons seems very doable.

    Yeah that was awesome. Yesterday was a good time too, almost sent you a screenshot. Might have been me, I've been running around breezing/claritying everybody.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I'm Discord in that shot. I was WTFing at the one guy saying "I'm not sure why" here. Why are you even on this server? The whole point is to kill targets at lower levels. What a douchebag.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Both of them were terrible if you didn't click the server in the first minute or so that it was unlocked, but Yelinak seemed a lot worse. Took me about 40 min to get onto Vaniki and I was last of my group to get in. I had Yelinak queued on another computer and didn't get in until a while later...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Damn, really? Our plat intake sucked, did NRO->NRO spires->Kurn->Dalnir and didn't really get any substantial money until Dalnir, and it wasn't that good. Someone in group suggested Warrens, we should have listened. WE SHOULD HAVE LISTENED

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, I'd say there's a very high possibility that we'll have a spot for one more in group by go time, if anyone on here wants to be a last-minute joiner and speed to 40. Shoot me a message on here if interested and able to play straight through this evening. This is also why I don't generally...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    So you're saying that the New Captain America, the white guy, is portrayed as a bad guy, and then quickly replaced? wellthereitis.gif @Ambiturner Oh okay, I thought it was the guard. Totally forgot about the judge.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, I've done 2 or 3 accts at once on different computers before, and without any shortcuts like numpads. That was back when I had a bunch of computers though, now I'm down to one because laptops break down after a while. It's definitely easier when you can tab between them. At this point it'd...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah, IMO the real final battle of Souls 3 is the fight at the end of time with Gael. (That's the last fight in the last DLC right?) Never played Souls 3 (saving it) but I know all kinds of stuff about it at this point. The Ringed City DLC in particular is something I find super-interesting and...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    I believe you, but after I watch it (or more likely have it on as background noise while I work) I'll at least be able to follow discussions about it. Definitely a lot more enthusiastic for Moon Knight though.

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    I think you have a point here overall. Almost all of the villains in the MCU have been white men. Rewatch Star Wars Episode 8 (or...don't) and it jumps off the screen how the Resistance is composed of a very diverse mix of people with like one (fat) white man in their ranks, while the bad guys...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Yeah, I still have Moon Knight and What If to check out. I'll probably also watch F+WS with low expectations just to complete the set. I like both of those characters under normal circumstances. Have like two more weeks of D+ so I might as well.

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    I did. I know Loki is still around and not actually a girl now. However I do think Sylvie is set up to pretty much take his place going forward, given that she's smarter, stronger, and better at everything than Loki is. I guess we'll find out after Loki S2. Re: Ironheart...I have no idea...

    If I were them, I would have just gritted it out for 2 months and then walked (I think Sasha's is also up in two months, since she re-signed in summer 2019). They could have gone right onto someone else's show brotherrr. By walking out when they did, they might drag out their contracts for a...

    Yeah, I'm impressed that it's hanging tough. Had a buy set for .63 MATIC and it triggered somewhere, but it seems to be holding up in the high .60's since then. Thought I had the buy set too high, but evidently it was just right. I think we're in for more ups and downs but between this and...

    Finally resuming this a bit, after being continuously reminded how much I don't like playing other modern games now. PS5 NG+: Basically done with the plat, just need to get Lichdragon done and make sure I don't miss anything for that. I'll go ahead and finish NG+ as well, cause I'm like 60%...

    I mean honestly, I'm in that boat. I've had a few people send me both SEQ and MQ stuff and I just haven't used any of it, even if SEQ would level the playing field a lot while competing with others who have it. I guess I'm just a purist. I never got excited for this stuff or bothered. I might...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Daredevil's a show (I'm referring to the MCU), Kraven and Fantastic haven't happened yet (we'll see what they do). Loki's a girl now and I'm pretty sure Ant-Man is gonna be brutally killed by Kang in February. Edit: And even if they keep Ant-Man in... it's Ant-Man. He's basically the comic...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Anyone notice that Valkyrie is doing an "as above so below" hand-steeple in this promotional shot? It's weird and out of place like it means something. Could also be the international teenager symbol for a vagina though and someone thought it was a joke. Either way the hand-pyramid seems...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    So wait, between She-Hulk, Ironheart, and presumably Miles Morales, the MCU is going to actually fully phase out white males? I'm actually all about diversity in general (hence why I wondered why there are no Latinos on the board) and having a mix of characters of all walks. OG Mortal Kombat in...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    The items from tutorial can be really good, especially with a cap of 40. Unfortunately the best one (haste item) is super-rare, and the tutorial will be crowded. I'd say better off skipping it, honestly. What I'm wondering is how good LDONs will be 20-40. Accumulating points from as early as...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I'm in that situation too. Pretty sure I bought $10 of Bitcoin back in 2013. Wanted to get $100 but my GF at the time talked me out of it and said it was akin to setting money on fire. I'm like 70% sure I went ahead and dropped a zero and got $10 as a lark. Problem is, I've used a ton of email...

    Hawkeye

    Yeah, dialogue actually felt realistic, which is uncommon for movies about teenagers. Also liked that the love interest turned out to be some asshole that she was projecting onto, which sounds about right, and that the most responsible/strong character in the movie was her brother and he got to...

    Not gonna be an evil class so hopefully that gives me a better warp point in Akanon. Gonna test it out. Yeah, that kinda sucked. It wasn't TOO bad, but I could see it being a tedious run very fast. Agnostic human cloth casters can start in West Freeport. Far as I can tell, that's the only...

    I was actually considering recording this launch and posting like a ten-hour Youtube video or something like that. Probably won't though.
