    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    The existence of real cream cheese does not require the existence of fake cream cheese. I suspect it's marketing to increase product attractiveness. Like slapping gluten free and fat free on ketchup.

    Path of Exile

    First krangled passive was shit. This one looks like more shit. Sentinel in every zone is more than enough. Will play for that alone. I'm not sure I understand the intent of throwing Kalandra on top. They don't seem synnergistic? I'm not sure I understand rotating atlas keystones. Seems...

    Path of Exile

    All I know is that league starts were rough for 3.18 and 3.19 but were ok for 3.20. I questioned the overall state of the game in Kalandra and mistakenly used Archnemesis as shorthand. And yes, I think it's completely fair for people to question the state of 3.22. It just depends on their...

    Path of Exile

    I think it's generally accepted that Archnemesis refers to the mistake of a system they tried to integrate into core during 3.18 and 3.19. Of course a large vestige of Archnemesis mods are still in the game in some form. Nemesis mods are too, shall we say Nemesis is still in the game too...

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    "We told the studios we want more money to play these characters, so don't go doing it for free." Something like that. I'm not saying it's not bizarre or stupid, but that's about the only logic I could twist from it.

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    idk, tractor(rider?) mower for a half acre seems like overkill. I mow almost two acres with a push mower. Yes, it takes a bit of time(~2.5 hours), but I rationalize it by saying I don't have to workout that day.

    The Expanse

    The last three books were not on the same level as the first three, but still quite good. The TV show adaption of the middle three books had the problem of lesser quality source material. But the adaption itself also felt rushed. Some minor characters in Marco's faction that were important to...

    The Expanse

    And instead we get Rings of Power. Probably could have easily funded the last three seasons with just a fraction the giant turd took. Continues to take. Comic book seems kinda meh. Maybe I haven't read the right comic books. But in terms memorability, books or tv shows/movies seem to have...

    The Expanse

    Weird timing on this bump. I was just remarking to my wife that Disney had wasted Daniel Craig, Gwendoline Christie, and now Wes Chatham by hiding them behind Stormtrooper armor. I know it's a trope that actors take off helmets at illogical times, but I kinda understand the flipside too. Was...

    Mostly. I have no problem with adults wanting to dress up for Halloween, but they should be honest about it. It's also "for" the kids wrt protecting them. Can't let them just wander around the neighborhood.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Preaching is subconsciously tolerated when writing is good. Relatable characters and interesting stories makes you not question how Riker hasn't been 23rd century MeToo'd. The writing on Star Trek hasn't been that good for a while.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Resists are worse than that. I'm sure this isn't "new" to PoE, but it's where I first encountered it. Because the game assumes you have capped your elemental resists(non-negative chaos at this point too...), not only is it lazy design, but you get "gear lock". This is where changing out one...

    We blacklisted all connections to our pipeline machines partly for that purpose. Internal mirrors that are needed to build are explicitly whitelisted and that's it. No funny updates bricking your build, no hidden dependencies inserting themselves into your toolchain.

    Wheel of Time

    I'm not actually sure I'd recommend reading the books by themselves. The first half of the series is still good and a lot of us got invested as they were published. But as a whole, especially compared to what's available today, the latter half is really detrimental.

    The Netflix Thread

    I'm not sold on residuals. What other industries operate like that? The silly part is not whether what they were demanding was reasonable. The silly part was how the whole thing sounded when taken in context of who was going to ultimately pay: consumers already fed up with a myriad of...

    Would you be willing to forego media entertainment if it guaranteed the destruction of the industry?

    Wouldn't the freak out inherently become media too and thus requisite in said destruction?

    Path of Exile

    I've only ever run Frostbite as it's usually the cheapest. But I believe the bug is that alphabetical order of flammability after elemental weakness will mess up the curse on hit during the detonation chain.. You don't want a double curse on hit anyway, anything you oneshot(high likelihood...

    6 of the past 8 leagues have not gone core. 2 of those 6 have kinda sorta gone core. ToTA needs some heavy refinement so that progression in ToTA is more closely tied to progression outside of ToTA.

    Preheat to 450. The "slide the pizza in" is the part I don't like about using just the pizza steel. That requires a stupid amount of flour/corn meal or I'm just bad at it. I'll roll out my dough to the rough shape of my pan and then fit it with the palm of hand. I want it to stick at the...

    If you like thinner crust, pizza steel/stone is very helpful. But using just the steel/stone is a pain in the ass and it cooks the crust faster than the cheese. I'll start on a regular aluminum pan for about 7 minutes or until it easily releases from the pan. Then it goes onto the steel/stone...
