It is though. I'm getting another dose tomorrow, I can scan the exact dosage and what's in it and post it right here. It's a shot, and it lasts around four weeks, taking about two weeks to peak. Also, given this is part of a medical study, it might be something new. Twice, not once but...

A jetpack guy flying around LA? Yeah, that was me back when I played through San Andreas: Enter the right code and you can spawn a jetpack at any time, so I cheesed my way through the entire game using a jetpack for everything I could.

Wasn't a response sent to the Wow signal? Or at least a bunch of radio signals beamed out in that general direction shortly afterwards? As improbable as it is, it's possible something picked it up and sent back a probe of some sort. Mostly improbable because so little time has gone by. Just...

After looking into this, I think Hateful Eight DID get 70mm screenings at some point. Damn. Hope it happens again. The movie itself was filmed in 65mm Super Panavision which is why it looks so incredible. Hell I'm gonna rewatch it later.

Because I'd just taken it out of a dusty bag and was in the car. It's crazy how fast screens get dirty when they're in a bag or a box with a lot of dust. It probably isn't spotless even at the best of times either If all else fails I'll do a full backup/format but it'd be a pretty big hassle at...

What fresh hell is this? Just got this laptop barely more than a year ago (Summer 2024) and it's already having issues. Every couple hours this weekend it'll suddenly reboot and then pop back up with these messages. I hit the power button on and off and it starts up normally. Might be happening...

Well, the game starts, right? And it lets you install it without a bunch of bullshit, right? So it's still way ahead of the last few CODs.

Sounds like it's about the same (ridiculous) runtime as Valhalla. That pretty much ensures I'll never play it, would have considered it if HLTB was correct and it was around 30-35 hours. Ain't nobody got 80 hours for something like this in this day and age, especially with the kind of backlog...

Don't have a wife, I'll have to ask your mom.

Speaking of the Great Patriotic War and the Soviets, I HIGHLY recommend this movie to anyone who hasn't seen it. Russian GPW movies make some American WW2 movies look like cartoons, and portray war as something to be avoided at all costs. There's no glorification of anything, just raw...

I'm pretty sure the Soviets would have armed actual bears and sent them to the front line if they could fight. Stalin's "smother them with bodies" strategy was the biggest meat grinder in history.

Early totals: Cast any further votes and I'll check back later. Since it's far away, I might start this before Jan 1st if I end up with a hole in the schedule and if there's a clear winner.

Can recommend Gucci Guilty. It's about $130 for one bottle, lasted me years and years though. Want to say around 5-7 years but it might have been more than that. A girl picked it out and said it was the best out of all the colognes we tested, and it got me a lot of "you smell amazing"s from...

Roger that, I'll just keep going until it's done. Was mainly worried about permanent damage, bacterial resistances developing, etc. However this was a serious infection and unless there's a major reason not to, I'd rather make sure it's totally dead. It'll be 20 straight days of antibiotics by...

I really need to get into romhacks/mods. Too bad I've got nowhere to fit in something like that considering all the major classic legit games I still haven't checked out. Elden Ring: Convergence looks pretty damn good. Wasn't there another major one, Garden of Eyes or something like that? FF...

That's what I thought, but why bother having 35mm and 70mm showings? Just do 70mm showings and be done with it. Would love to see Hateful Eight get a re-release like that. Movie is mind-bogglingly good-looking at times.

TLDR: I like you, but I disagree on women popping up in games. If there's a particular part you want me to spell out and explain with more words, I can do that.

Need advice on an antibiotic dose. Got prescribed Amox-Clav (500-125) for a really bad/painful infection. Despite that (apparently) being a large dose, it went on and on and the pain was horrendous for over a week. Ran out of the first dose and the pain was down to about 30% of where it started...

I did a solo Ramza playthrough once on the PS1. It was a lot of fun. It's surprising how easy it is to break the game and turn Ramza into an uber death machine. Had to do a lot of the grinding before Dorter Trade City though, because of the casters. By halfway through the game he was a...

Except that millions of people on the left actually think that's what MAGA is. A bunch of cartoonish super-nazis that want to have them all killed for their identity or beliefs. ...which makes it really easy for the left to cheer on when those cartoonish evil people are actually being killed...

Full article: https://variety.com/2025/film/news/one-battle-after-another-liberal-critics-bret-easton-ellis-1236545512/ He's right. A movie with antifa-like revolutionaries as the protagonists isn't "what we need in this terrifying moment" like all the critics seem to be saying. If anything...

What's the difference between 35mm and 70mm? And yeah, I'm overdue for a rewatch of Kill Bill, but I'll definitely wait for this theater showing now. 4 hours in a theater is gonna be a bit of an ask in this era of short attention spans so it'll be interesting to see if they add an intermission...

Agreed with all of these. The Ezio trilogy (AC2, AC Brotherhood, AC Revelations) is the high point of the series, and what you should play first unless you hate Renaissance Era Italy for some reason. Can get all 3 of them in one game now. I wasn't that into Revelations but it's the culmination...

I haven't really gotten into one of these since Battlefield 4 in 2014, but if we've got air battles and tanks, goddammit, I'm gonna have to get this one.

That sort of thing only bothers me when it's historically-inaccurate. Like women fighting for an army that wouldn't have had women in it in a million years, yes, that does take me out of the immersion. If the issue is only that you don't like women in these games, then I'd say get over it...

Yeah, Shadows would be good if it focused on Naoe and left out Yasuke entirely. Guy didn't seem fun to play as and I didn't even get as far as having to sneak around (or try to). AC Mirage is pretty solid. Old-school AC game with old-school objectives, takes about 15 hours give or take a few...

This have a campaign? I'm one of the weirdoes that plays the campaigns. BF3 and 4 had really good ones, BF5 didn't have a campaign at all IIRC.

That was an exaggeration, I doubt it took me an hour to do the last fight. It just felt like an hour. I insisted on making it through the fight without losing any characters, so it took 3 tries. The minions spamming Bioga the entire way up was an issue for my party, since nobody had Auto-Potion...

Had the opportunity to try out AC Shadows last night. No, I didn't buy it. Thoughts on it, having played around 2 hours: -The game should have just been Naoe. She was charismatic and likeable. Also she's, ya know, Japanese, and not tied to a historical figure. I played as Yasuke for like five...

Isn't it hilarious how that side gets so up in arms about the J6 "insurrection" all the time while simultaneously rooting for a complete dismantling of the American government and way of life, which would require an actual insurrection?

I dunno what Dark Ties is, but it's about time they did a Kiwami 3. The last one was seven years ago (Jesus). Unfortunately Yakuza 3 is kinda in the lower tier of the series along with 4 and 6. Found it fairly boring. It's super-heavy on plot and Kiryu's social life at the orphanage. Doubt I'll...

Yeah I'm nowhere near done rounding up Eastwood movies, that was like half of my existing list. Ennio soundtracks are great. Really liked The Thing and Hateful Eight (which is heavily inspired by The Thing and uses unused music from it). Wait, man with no name trilogy? TGTBATG had sequels...

I heard that the guy that played Scorpio in DH1 was also the guy that played Garak in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 25 years later. Woah. Funny thing is, I'm also watching Deep Space Nine as of late. Dead Pool thoughts: -Really liked this one. Was worried after 4 that the series was pretty much...

Only time consuming things were the poaching trophies, Deep Dungeon, and the "max all jobs" trophy. I recommend doing the rare items from poaching throughout chapter 4, as things like dragons and hydras become available. Recruiting the pig in that one Chapter 3 fight makes the trophy a snap by...

This is a concern of mine too, that if the zealots win (due to lack of pushback and people being afraid of them, no doubt, which for a while was the case) and succeed in dismantling American culture, then we might have a future where roving bands of weirdoes go around checking people's histories...

All done, thanks massive sinus infection that had me laid up for 4 straight days!

^ The Russia/Ukraine thread on FOH, in a nutshell

I think it's 10 different rare items, so you can't just farm ten Barettes unfortunately. However, there are like 18 rare items from 18 different enemy types, and some are common drops (meaning some of the monsters have both rare and common carcasses you can use, and you'd need two of those...

I've been slowly going through DS9 for like the past seven years. Up to early Season 6 so I should be done by 2030. Would really like to bang out the last two seasons, keep getting distracted every time I start though. Young Raj also knew these movies. The actress was Krista Allen and she was...

Way too accurate
