    Yeah, I kept trying to wrap my head around that comparison. And in the context of the game the intro makes sense.

    I watched Uncle Buck not too long ago and thought the same. Reminds me of my crazy Aunt.

    Let's all go to the lobby - The Culinary Experience

    I like my De Buyer more as well, but I also use it more since I got a smaller one to do eggs in for breakfast. It does have the rubber in the handle that I'd take out if you're using it in a 400+ degree oven.

    Fuck Sawstop. No way is it worth 3x the price. Sorry but you can put a price on safety. I was looking strongly at the F2 as well but reviews seemed a little spotty on quality. But part of me thinks they were just older reviews of the F1 because of old pictures vs recent publish dates. Kind of...

    I’ve really liked my Saatva and wanted something a little more firm. Looking back through emails it has been just over two years now with no complaints. Pillow I switched to this kind after trying a few. Was getting some seriously bad neck pain and for a while had tingling and numbness in my...

    Seven showings in two days with a lot of positive feedback. No one has mentioned anything about it being priced too high or any real tangible issues with the house. The main complaint feedback is that the layout is unique and just not for them. I mean the only real feedback that matters at all...

    I haven't been out to my local premium hardwood store yet to check how 5/4 and 6/4 stuff is selling. Last year I picked up a bunch of hickory and other things that was cheaper than just buying dimensional stuff from HD or Lowe's. Need to make another run out there soon.

    Dreamscaper - ARPG Roguelite

    A few days in to this and wanted to follow up with a little more details on impressions. Combat and general feel of the responsiveness is probably the high point for me. The combat feels nice, dodge cancel, block cancel, parrying. All works almost exactly as you'd expect it to. Parry window and...

    Been playing it on and off today, maybe 2 hours total. Really liking it so far. It doesn't come off as in your face deep and needing to worry about balancing all the different unlocks, weapons, synergies, relationships, etc... But all the systems are in place. A few really good QoL things like...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Yeah, I gave up at the PPTC & exef stuff after getting the PR build. Maybe it'll just be incorporated at some point in the future. Was fun testing but too much trouble and I like the series too much to both. But it did make me itch to get my hands on this!

    Wasn't there a strange thing in World where it locked the Monster level to assuming 3 or 4 player multi even if there were only two people? Could be way off just some conversation fragments, but I didn't do much multi in World.

    Yeah I've got like a 1/8" trim bit I can use to make a rabbet along the end to make it flush.

    Yeah that's fine if that'll work. When I was doing the mantel I was just reading about code for combustible material being X inches from the fireplace opening. Which the vertical part if you measure from edge to actual opening is 6" even though it looks thinner just measuring the metal surround.

    You crazy? Not spending money on all that wood to make a surround that'll just be left for some other assholes to tear it down once they overpay for my house.

    Fireplaces... After my remodel last year one of the only things I didn't finish up was the fireplace. After they pulled the old mantel, hearth, and surround I just had them go back and drywall it in and repaint with the new wall color with the intention of doing what I wanted later. Selling now...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Every weapon is a little different, but overall the combat is very much an exercise of making deliberate attacks at the correct times. It initially feels very heavy / slow / awkward. Almost in a Souls sort of way, although that is a little cliched and overused comparison these days. There's no...

    Possibly. Not 100% saying it was that one, they all run together at some point. I tried to go back and find it after posting but between Gamers Nexus, Linus, Hardware Unboxed, More's Law, Digital Foundry, and whatever else "the algorithm" suggests on a given day it was nowhere to be found.

    Getting caught up on Jujutsu Kaisen and then the last few Mushoku... but it was really strange in Ep20 of Jujutsu when Itadori uses Black Flash on Hanami, then it goes to mid-break, and they're back fighting like nothing happened. For an otherwise pretty snappy and consistent show it was a...

    There's apparently a patch for the emulator that allows for 1080p and 1620p, also one that unlocks framerate. But again, not going to fiddle with it much because I love the series and will just buy it for PC. Unfortunately don't have a Switch and would probably just wait until this next refresh...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    It isn't the greatest experience using the Switch EMU with my 980TI and i7-7700k. Playable but if you weren't just jonesing for some Monster Hunter experience it definitely wouldn't be my suggestion on how to experience the game. Wait for the actual PC release and buy or grab it for Switch.

    I'm not moving to Arkansas, I've been here for like 15-16 years, in West Little Rock. Maumelle is just Maumelle, it is NW of me across the river.

    I found a decent spot just outside Little Rock with about 3 acres. The issue or pushback is that it is zoned terribly for schools and not in a neighborhood with one of those homeschool pods, and no easy access to a major hospital for emergencies. Realizing that my dream of being outside the City...

    This is aggressively bad. You could probably write a semester course on how bad this is. Multiple people should have been told no at multiple points on this film, but no one was there to do it.

    Pretty sure there was an indy movie with this plot that I watched last year. A bunch of doors exist but none open and some guy is trying to find the one real one to get him out. Can't remember the name though... need to look that up. *edit: It wasn't portals... this was like some very grey...
