    The Edenville Dam in Midland, MI (world HQ of DOW Chemical) collapses forcing thousands to evacuate

    Why not just make your range 0-50,000 and then you're correct no matter what?

    Geez, what a retarded fucking mechanic to add. It's apparently because Redigit didn't like people using the wrong torches. Awesome idea for a sandbox game you fuckwad. As time goes on, I'm starting to also dislike the town mechanic. The pylons are awesome, but having all my people spread across...

    Really? Destroyer wasn't bad. Although I farmed up a Daedalus Stormbow. The Twins however fucking wrecked me. Took me like 5 or 6 tries. I think doing Spazmatism first was the wrong choice. If you get stuck in his spew attack you're dead. Whereas Retinazer is just dodging.

    Looks kind of like a mini plantera bulb. Not easy to find, but I got two almost next to each other.

    Astroneer

    I'm big on the crafting and survival genres. Had wanted this one way back when I first heard about it. Played for free on Xbox game pass...and lasted about an hour. It just wasn't all that good in my opinion.

    Knocked out Destroyer on master mode. Kind of disappointing now that I've basically only got a handful of bosses left. Also, I hate comparing this to Calamity all the time (I could also go with Thorium, which has different mod developers), but it's sad that master mode is basically expert with...

    Do you know first hand anyone who has been proven to test positive for Covid-19?

    Nothing here yet. Still only around 1000 cases in a county of a million though, in California. My family lives on the east coast and my wife's in Illinois and nothing from them either.

    Yeah, the graphic updates are pretty awesome. I've gotta say the biome changing keyboard shit is fucking cool also. Especially during boss fights.

    Did about 8 hours in a 2 player co-op. Just Skeletron and WoF left on normal. It was pretty fucking brutal to start, but we didn't die nearly as much as the streamers on early release day. Pretty cool changes, but the whole "it's like a brand new game!" is a bit generous. I still think Calamity...

    Agree with pretty much all of this. Glad Tony won because he played his fucking ass off. He was making the right call like literally every single day and it was pretty amazing to watch. My biggest complaint is I pretty much hate the reunion shows anymore, but fuck I wish they would've done one...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019

    Played last night and we did noticeably better. Not sure if it was luck of the draw, or if they legit got rid of cheaters (and/or we actually ran into them that often).

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    I mean, I'm glad people are excited, but GTA 5 is 7 years old now, and Witcher 3 is 5 years old. That they're giving them away isn't some miracle of giveaways.

    I played the shit out of it just in general. Honestly think the soundtrack is what made that game. Not sure that holds as much weight nowadays.

    Not sure I can play this anymore. They really need to do something about the hacking. It's out of control. And the longer they go without addressing it, the more people seem to feel comfortable doing it because there are no repercussions.

    Did you hate Mike Judge movies (Office Space, Idiocracy)? Because that's essentially what his character is.

    He basically made it to the end because of a couple flukes. But eh, I guess that's most winners now. The David tribe was pretty inept, except for this super nerdy guy Christian. Christian was an absolute fucking mastermind though, and made a super strong alliance with some of the Goliaths. They...

    Producers are getting lazy. Both times I called the idol winner, because both times they were set up as "the vote is on Nick/Michelle." So of course they'd win. Anyway, man, this season has been amazing. Sad it's already almost over.

    So as of today, we're only about $35k down from our month to month peak. Although probably 45-50k down from the mid-February high. All things considered, that's not too bad. That's also assuming we don't plunge back down though. Honestly kind of disappointed because we didn't get that much "on...

    Not sure what the actual employment rate is, but some NYT article I saw used 123M in early April. That'd put us at 24.4%, only half a percent off the Great Depression.

    Back to the Future (1985)

    I watch them all at least once a year. It's one of the few movies that without exaggeration I can say I've watched dozens of times (mostly just 1 and 2, actually...for some reason 3 wasn't my favorite). I guess I also watch Groundhog Day, Home Alone, and Christmas Vacation just about every year...

    This is how we were for years. And we found the FIRE movement at a good time, probably when our household income was around $50-60k. We've accelerated over the years and now we're about at the top 10% of income earners, still living like we did when we were earning the median household wages...

    Same here. Aim assist is bullshit. Our squad actually figured out if we go into the last couple circles and it's a wide open space, we can generally win. If it's houses and shit we absolutely lose. And it's all because our actual skill can be used when they don't have the benefit of locking on...

    There's a saying that "the market can remain irrational far longer than you can remain insolvent." Seems to apply in that case (despite his claims that all his trades are on Brent and he's still okay; his clock is still ticking). Yeah, oil will eventually go back above $50. But do you know...

    She was just very stiff in this one. I couldn't get through The Room with her either. Maybe she's not cut out for dramatic acting? I feel like even in the two you mentioned she wasn't really doing much "acting." And I'll echo the other comments. It's definitely not her SJW stances. I hate Mark...

    Eh? Looks like he was 23. Born in 61, movie was 1984. I'm also retarded. Dennehy played the alien guy and wasn't that old. It was Brimley I was thinking of who was actually young.
