Everytime I come to this thread I end up spending an hour+ just digging shit. Good work, friends.

Haven't seen this yet, but Iron Chef America guy is Mark Dacascos. Look up Only the Strong, and revel in the greatness.

It's subtle but there. You could take it as "Hey you need to feed the queen. Try again tonight." But that doesn't jive well with the "I think they're on to me" message. Varys was trying to off Danaerys. And that makes his death pretty baller overall. Especially him taking his rings off and...

Cloud has... a lot of limitations. The primary one isn't storage (that's the expensive datacenter shit) it's actually the networking. If you are using distributed systems (as most SAAS companies are) that means you have a shitload of communication that is just organization of the 0s and 1s...

I enjoyed the episode, because I feel it portrayed what happens when you "wake the dragon" pretty well, especially when that person actually has a dragon. Cersei/Jamie's deaths were... well, they are what they are. Not great, and basically everyone was expecting some grand execution or Jamie...

Ugh; I need to get back on the horse. Spent a few months learning japanese because why not? And spent a lot longer just doing work related shit. I think I'm still on 4.2 or something =| Gonna be a long ride upwards as a WHM who hasn't played consistently in years =\

Guess I'll be pretty familiar with the music when I see them hah.

One of the few bands I haven't seen. Definitely hope they come stateside at this point, just for that piece of history and headbang.

I have tickets to Aftershock (like always) this year, and they are headlining one of the days. If the album doesn't drop by then, I hope to hear some good stuff~

I actually liked Dark Side of the Spoon a lot as well. After that though...

Tormund had me dying. The kingkiller thing with Jaime going "Some call me that, I'm sure." followed by the giant story was absolutely gold. Arya sex scene was... awkward, especially since Gendry looks in his early/mid 30s and she looks 13. Didn't really need that scene at all.

At least the Flare drives are still there in the VNX control chassis! That is fucking horrific, btw, minus the fact that it clearly is in some kind of warehouse and not a data center. Wonder if it was being shipped somewhere fully intact or it was asset recovery and some chode with a forklift...

Kind of disappointed. Was hoping this was a retrospective on Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and of course Willie Nelson. Looks interesting at least.

Bald badguy assassin, I believe. Haven't looked much deeper to avoid spoilers, but he's featured in one of the trailers.

Nah; it's great being a warrior who likes to tank and having to fight over gear with the aspie who think he's contributing by asking for the Might set and "dpsing" pre BWL. Great times.

Mark Dacascos was/is a beast; he just translated poorly during the late 90s/early 2000s to being a leading action guy. I'm really stoked to see him in John Wick 3; the guy is a legit martial arts badass, and it'll be interesting to see what they do with him in the film. Brotherhood of the Wolf...

It's been a bit, so yeah. All the callbacks to "I thought you'd be bigger" and other confusion from Baldur at the first meeting is a nice payoff on a second play-through after you know the story. Just little bits like that are like "Aha!" Really looking for whatever potential sequel may...

Goddamnit. You know what is rustling my jimmies right now.

Nah, I was doing that. Instead of attacking me with one of the normal melee attacks, she would just jump up. Absolutely nothing like the video that was linked earlier of the guy stunlocking her. I mean I know that video was cherry-picked to show the concept, but my experience was vastly...

I beat her tonight as well; the video where the guy basically stunlocks her? Yeah... none of that shit was even remotely possible in my game. She spent half her time in the air (shurikens ftw) but every "break" lead to her jumping upwards and my counter whiffing. That stunlock shit works when...

I don't think there are any, because the reality is that intensity trumps basically every other metric. If you lift intensely, every time? That's the only "exercise" that needs to be done. Don't lift half-ass. Don't do pilates every bench day because you like pilates; that will fuck with...

They try to make a dwarf fallible, when he has shown multiple times (and gets fucked for it) that he has vices that undermine him at every turn. You can't make a character sympathetic by literally making them suck at everything. Hence him being a -dwarf- AND having vices like alcoholism and...

^^^ that right there is goddamn beautiful.

It's on there~ I also have Swamped by Lacuna Coil, Cain by Tiamat, Bloodlines by Ministry, and A Smaller God by Darling Violetta. Played so much of that game that the various club songs have legit become songs I just enjoy listening to. Good guess on Chiasm tho~

I legit have 5 songs from the soundtrack on my playlist for normal stuff to this day. Game was a solid 11/10 even with the amazing amount of bugs. If this is even just a remaster with a reworked final chapter? Yeah day one purchase.

Plowed through them all in a sitting last night. Zero complaints, and heay... Heavy Metal to the max. Great stuff.

Maybe not Cap, but Tony is his spirit animal sorta. Hype is real; Thor + Flatass scene was solid (if contrived). Definitely not seeing it opening day or 2-3 days after that, but within the first week for sure. Local area is rife with college kids and I -know- how opening night/weekend...

Friends and I did a rewatch; Season 6 had just the right amount of titty to be "Meh" but still worth plowing through. Kinda hoping Samwell or Gendry end up on the throne. Samwell because I mean if you are looking for kind, reasonable rulers, you can't get around Sammy's soft streak. Gendry...

Are those like... new National Lampoon comics or something? They're like Playboy in the 80s =|

Pretty sure there was a decent amount of nudity in 80s PG movies; Beastmaster comes immediately to mind. I watched that movie -every- time it came on Showtime or HBO or whatever my parents were paying for. Rip Torn with a fake nose is the height of hilarity. Plus it has the weird...

First rated R movie I can remember watching was Robo Cop; I think I was like.. 6? My dad was surprisingly cool for an 80s dad. Matrix is the first movie where I got carded ( I was 16 at the time, I think) and the manager went "Ah he's old enough" and let me in with a couple of other like-aged...

Aunt banging priorities. Who knew that the Lord of Light was from Kentucky?

Yeah... it was telegraphed completely that the king is now the parrot. I didn't know there was any confusion over that hah.

That is a 1.2m house in Santa Barbara. There is a -lot- of skew with what things are worth depending on where you are.

I watched it as a lark a year after it came out (I think I was 34? At the time) because I have a soft spot for disney movies from when I was a kid. Saw tangled as well, and Tangled was definitely a superior movie. But I enjoyed it for what it was. Helped that it was in viking country, because...

She's definitely not bad for 51. But yeah, very much has as soccer mom look to her these days.

Work is basically an apple equipped development shop, so a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. I will say that because so many people here in Santa Barbara have the things, you can notice when cars full of people equipped with them roll by, as you start getting connection breaks until they...

100-200k is considered middle class? Sure, I guess if you have 3 kids and are putting them all through college, or you live in San Fran/New York/Santa Barbara. That's "Retire when I'm 35" Money easily in like.. 80% of the country hah.

I liked the modules (and I definitely played the games inspired by them) but yeah it wasn't the same way in the books. Which is fine; and I definitely disagree that it couldn't be done faithfully and in an interesting manner on the big screen. It'd effectively be mini-quicksilver action with...

That movie was the biggest waste of time I can honestly remember. Jim Carrey and Neo are in it, and Jim Carrey specifically is majestically underplayed. The trip scene in the desert describes the entire movie. No idea why it needed to be made; nothing happens, nothing interesting occurs, and...
