    Vigil: the Longest Night

    Yeah, I got that one really early and it felt overpowered to have it. The feather shooter one seems extremely weak compared. I'm guessing from the quest tracker and the couple with Red X it means there are missable quests. It is super bare bones though like you said.

    Was that Amazon hardware? I made my own for a cabinet downstairs that I built but didn't bend the aluminum quite right so it tracks a little wonky... rather than start over from scratch since I've already done it once was just thinking about buying from Amazon. Technically could reuse the...

    LTT did a video about the camera rig developed to do parts of the film. Haven't watched the movie yet but the video made me interested to see what was going on:

    Vigil: the Longest Night

    Kind of losing interest in this. It isn't bad but the dialogue has just taken me out. After one specific part you interact with two characters and their banter is just, "Fuck you!" "No, fuck you!" It is just bad. Maybe I'm being overly critical. It also has a distinctly "unity" engine feel...

    Oh for sure, it isn't surprising and makes perfect sense. It was just in all the commotion and excitement about putting it all together, didn't take that extra half a second to think about the power. Was all pretty funny.

    I did get a chance yesterday to test and make sure the planar worked without exploding and sending small blades everywhere. Turns out that having a window unit AC and the planar on the same breaker doesn't work out well. Blew the breaker about 50% of the time, was pretty funny. First test run...

    So, small shop update since nothing is finished yet and I keep finding stuff to distract me. Plus working 60 - 70 hours a week and doing hurricane Ida stuff now... but anyways. Never set up my DeWalt DW735 so decided to order a helical head for fun, because why not if I'm just being ridiculous...

    Rtings has a specific sound bar section (Soundbar Reviews: Best of 2021) they launched that may help you out if you haven't looked there yet. Some of the $500 range ones seem to be more centered around 5.1 and then you have some 2.1 with discrete satellites and a subwoofer in different setups...

    Did you dump TRU? It is almost hitting $0.50 at this point. I was sitting on all mine but mostly "lost" it due to the LP shifting towards ETH.

    Semi related question, maybe. At this point who can even tell… Looking past the pixel asset attached to the NFT address, and this whole conversation revolving around whether said pixel(s) can be copied, but not the address to verify mint and release, yada yada; Is there anything more uniquely...

    Vigil: the Longest Night

    Combat seems more similar to a Bloodstained than a Soulslike. Equipment and weapons have stats and other differences so I would say it is more RPGish than anything. Same with leveling and abilities, buying, selling. Upgrading and +1ing your stuff is soulsish but not unique to that game or genre...

    Vigil: the Longest Night

    Man I just reinstalled Bloodstained. Guess I’ll do this one. There was another game released yesterday “Song of Iron” and while there’s a lot of praise for the one dude making a game alone there’s also a lot of reviews saying it is trash. *edit: Also, I've continued to trudge along in Grime and...

    Was just asking a friend about the state of this two nights ago and he said what the thread says, just that it has come a long way and is actually pretty good. Seems to be the same $30 deal on Steam at the moment.

    For some reason the 1st thing that pops in my head as a movie / show with characters I hated, but a movie I enjoyed, is Very Bad Things. No idea how many years it has been since seeing that but I remember conversations in our group about how everyone in the movie was reprehensible. Then again I...

    I've been watching Etherscan a lot recently just to move liquidity and collected fees around when gas is low, and yeah, OpenSea has been rank 1 on Gas guzzlers by a loooong shot.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    ICE stuff is so hit or miss you almost wonder if it is a collection of people using a pseudonym. At the beginning he was rough, then got a little better around RotCG if I remember, but then just went back downhill. It is fun getting side stories in the universe but you gotta suffer through some...

    Hah, I can see that happening. I appreciate his channel and all his tests. Some of them are ridiculous and you’d never use a tool in the way he tests it but at least he tries to point out the absurdity of some of it. But sometimes I think people take that seriously and are like “Well I’m not...

    There are as many answers to that question as there are stars in the universe. Everyone has an opinion and a preference about what it best and way too many people are overly passionate about it.

    What did you just read?

    I think I'm going to start these tonight, thanks for the recommendation. If nothing else it maybe it'll get me back in to Charles Stross. Years ago I read the Singularity series and some of the Merchant, can't remember where I left off. Some of his umm... "hyper" sci fi was just insane stuff.

    Not necessarily. It is only a simulation or estimate. It is highly dependent on the trading and windows you set up and the ratios of things moving within them. Having said that it maybe isn't 100% accurate but it also isn't 100% crap. I mean "it depends" is a legit answer. You also have to...

    Rewatched The Martian last night. It wasn't nearly as good as I remembered. Over time book information and movie information got jumbled up in my head. There was a ton of science stuff and inner monologue stuff that I remembered but apparently was only in the book and not the movie and then vice...

    Yeah, a lot of the videos I've seen over the years have had varying degrees of "damp material is fine," or "you better have no drops of water within 10mi of the saw or it'll go off!" So, I'm sure it is somewhere in between. I don't generally cut something that is damp but will always keep it in...

    With the floors of the shop finished I needed a break from work and life so spent yesterday putting the saw together. That was really fun and took a good 6-7 hours. Have to hand it to Sawstop, their packing and manual was everything it was rumored to be. Color coded sectioned off parts, nice...

    Mortal Shell - Soulslike RPG

    YMMV but not sure I'd say this is worth $27... $15 maybe? I'm being critical maybe. It wasn't an unpolished turd or anything it just wasn't very deep maybe. And now that we're like 8 months or so out from release it seems like a steep asking price. Maybe with the DLC included b/c I actually...

    A lot of your progress is built in already. Knowing enemies, rooms, what builds work, how to pick your path through, and so forth. Pretty sure you'd be back to where you are now in a fraction of that time. Even some of the dialogue unlocks and hub encounters are RNG so you could also go 16 more...

    Here’s the shop area so far. Had to scramble to move things out and throw stuff up on the bench. Only had time to pull off the old shelves and what not from the earlier picture, install a lumber rack, and get a coat of fresh paint over about half it and quick fill in holes. Maybe, maybe this...

    Got the flake down in main garage, same flake going in the workshop but it is only ground down at the moment. Top coat going on tomorrow. That seam looking part is a step up to a raised level in the garage. Will take a picture of the shop once it is done but liking it so far. We’ll see!

    I view my ETH:TRU pool similarly but recently more often than not I’m pushing towards a 100% TRU stake just due to how the pair is moving in relation to each other. So, while also collecting my fees at an ETH:TRU split I also try to watch that ratio in the pool. I probably wouldn’t remove...
