    The Callisto Protocol (Survival Horror)

    The new Dead Space game was just called Dead Space but it came out in 2023 and not 2008. There was some initial blowback over changes made to characters and graffiti if I remember correctly, but I think it was okay outside of that? Steam has it as Very Positive which is unexpected given what I...

    One Piece

    Hopefully that “..and Season 3” doesn’t mean something stupid like “Here’s 6 episodes now we’re going to hold back the last 6 for 3 months and call that Season 3.” This is something I’d love to go back and do Season 1 again since our oldest is 8 and may be a little easier on him than when he was...

    You can also look at a 6” random orbit. That’s about 40% larger area but you’ll pay marginally more for sanding discs. Or! Or! Hear me out since you make table tops… https://www.grizzly.com/products/grizzly-12-1-1-2-hp-baby-drum-sander/g0459 Mostly kidding

    Are you looking to improve quality of sanding product or quality of sanding experience? Everyone’s pretty much said sanding is miserable. I went from a cheap Black and Decker plug-in that was probably 15 years old to a 3M Xtract and saw an improvement in both, but it wasn’t magically not a pain...

    Wednesday

    The first season was kind of a quirky well done YA’ish thing. It wasn’t offensively bad or anything but a step above CW, obviously higher production values, etc. Haven’t had time forgive the second season a chance yet. Wife kind of wants to rewatch Season 1 as a refresh. I have a weird thing for...

    New movies that dont deserve their own thread.

    We got through the first half of Monte Cristo tonight. It is funny that I have three different editions of that book and never saw the Caviezel film. Certainly a whole lot to condense into even a 2 hour movie. Guy Pearce is great.

    Alien: Earth

    Ripley had a nice setup as final girl from Alien so there was no issue going into Aliens and understanding she had seen some absolute shit and Paul Reiser can shut up. And the other marines were badasses where they weren't trying to have Ripley one up everyone. It was just smarter than...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Hah it was, just top of my mind since we rewatched it last weekend after the other thread reminded me about it. Hadn’t seen it since release.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Gonna laugh when Gosling just plays the same character from Drive except this time it is an X-Wing and he still spends 75% of the movie standing around silent and grinning like a creeper.

    Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that as we were leaving a family of 5 Indians came in to look at the house. Adults, no kids, just adults.

    The arial doesn't do it justice. That retaining wall in the back is like 10' away and everything above it is useless as a yard. The front yard is also sloped and virtually unusable.

    Just to get back on track from the stupid rice derail... Seiko released the heritage SRPL91 which is a modern replica of the watch Gene Kranz wore as Apollo Flight Director during Apollo 11 and Apollo 13. I wish I was a photographer because there's some idea I had. Unfortunately, I am not so...

    Yeah, that was the other depressing thing about everything we saw. The McMansions come on like .2 acre lots. We play outside in the back as much as we can and there's virtually no room for them in these houses.

    No, I definitely wouldn't argue that "need" is the right word. We did need to see that to know we don't want it though, so it was an important step in the process. We have (will have in Oct) three boys and we're both full time WFH so we're falling into the trap of wanting 3 rooms for the kids, a...

    Oh my God looking for a new house is depressing. We're still probably (hopefully) 18 months from moving but spend yesterday driving around to a few open houses and holy shit I want to kill myself. We looked at this $950k 4,400 sq ft new construction, and it was just the most sterile and soulless...

    Yeah, I played with mine all weekend. My red dot was zero'd very well. Blew away a couple of ants and had the kids scouring the house for flies or mosquitos but we never found any, almost went out side and started plugging stuff around bushes. Shot my hand with it and damn thing stung pretty...

    I would be kind of nervous with those and the ability for the table to rack side-to-side without any sort of cross support. Even the underside view doesn't show anything. May not be an issue but was the first thing I checked b/c I've had that problem in the past. I guess there's a couple of...

    There’s so much hilarious stuff in the first 4 episodes I had forgotten about, like the hoisted by your own retard, anything involving Jonah.

    Angie Tribeca was amazing. I need to rewatch that for sure. We just started rewatching Veep to have a background 30 min comedy. This’ll work well too.

    Same here. I read the book’s and watched the show but barely remember the ins and outs. I want to say the first season did all the books and season 2 was totally new stuff.

    This is the same freezer we have in our pantry / bonus whatever room, just be aware that those plexiglass whatever shelves aren't the most rigid things. You can even see on the image they have they're flexing a little. We put about half the ground beef we got from our 1/2 cow on one shelf and I...

    I have a friend with one and he says it works, but excited to try it myself. We don't really have a huge fly problem but thought it'd be a fun toy to mess with and maybe 3d print some accessories and figure out what the possibilities are. Should be here tomorrow.

    On a related note, for the Robin Hobb Assassin's Apprentice release I did perhaps (probably) stupidly commit to the Lettered edition. This is kind of a speculative play, but it will be a large commitment to the whole series and maintaining rights as new books are released. I can resell the ones...
