    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    I don't watch much more than that. It doesn't seem that expensive to me.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    The definition of alcoholism doesn't have a lot to do with how much you are drinking. It's the fact that you are suffering consequences from your drinking and continuing to drink in the face of them. I'm not saying you're an alcoholic, but you have to ask yourself why drinking is important...

    Survivor

    Come on dudes, it's not even the merge yet. This happens every season that people start the whining before the game even really gets going. Also, what's so crazy about the Yahoo lady? She seems like one of the smartest people out there.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    This is why ala carte seems like a good idea but it probably isn't. Yeah we all pay for channels that we don't watch, but the big pool of money allows a lot of niche channels to exist that wouldn't in an ala carte system, and I subsidise your niche and you subsidise mine. I'm sure there are...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    ESPN charges the cable companies like $15 per viewer or something crazy like that. It's by far the most expensive channel.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Dude. You only think you liked having a girlfriend because you are brainwashed by women bro. You were actually miserable dude, seriously. Women make you think you want to be with them so they can like, exploit you for money bro. True happiness comes from hitting it and quitting it dude.

    Dude, chicks are always coming up to me and going "Hey baby, nice phone. You really know your build quality, want a blowjob?"

    Holy shit I just noticed that it's $160. It looks neat but those are some expensive herbs.

    The Fast Food Thread

    I may have said it before but the $5 hot and ready at Little Caesar's is a miracle of modern technology. It's not "good pizza" by any reasonable definition, but the fact that you can get a half decent dinner for 2 with no waiting for $5 is unmatched anywhere else in the fast food universe...

    That seems strange to me. At least if you send an email there should be a server log somewhere recording it. There's no evidence at all that you sent a fax is there?

    What did the pizzas have to do with a well bored perpendicularly into water-bearing strata lying at an angle, so that natural pressure produces a constant supply of water with little or no pumping?

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Let us know how it works. I tried a potted herb garden once and I wound up paying $20 and watering the thing for 2 months and got a total of about $3 worth of basil out of it but I still like the idea.

    Signatures are another thing that needs to just go away in this day and age. Luckily most of the places I deal with that require signatures are okay with me scanning and emailing them.

    I should say that Kaitlyn Denver is a really great actor for how young she is. I bet she is going to be the next Jennifer Lawrence.

    I think Boyd is still planning on running away with Ava and whatever he says/does with Loretta is going to be over once he leaves but he will do what he can to make her a bigger pain in the ass to Avery Malcom before he goes. It's kind of funny that Raylan had the perfect trap set for Boyd...

    Fuck fax machines. Whenever anyone asks me to fax them something I'm like "Well, this isn't 1992 so no, I won't fax you anything. I won't be sending you anything by telegram or pony express either." Having an IT guy insist on getting something faxed to them is terrifying.

    Survivor

    The 2 person elevator thing was not well thought out. The part that was supposed to make it hard didn't work because when it got uneven the side ropes just caught the thing and it didn't fall off and then when they let it go it becomes a skull crushing machine. I was very impressed with Kelly...

    Virtual Reality

    Everybody said that the HTC system that was at mobile world congress didn't make anyone sick the way that the Oculus Rift does, I think because of better latency and higher resolution. I guess at this point it doesn't really matter if Oculus Rift fails, the inventor got his payday already and...

    They had better shit or get off the pot with that thing. A bunch of bigger companies are building competition for it and it's starting to look like their versions might be better and come out first.

    It sure looks like in 5 years we'll all be getting all of our TV over the internet and most likely paying the same as we pay for cable now but only getting half the channels.

    Dan Carlin - Hardcore History Podcast & Common Sense Podcast

    I'll second that. I liked the Rome series and the current WW1 series but both went a little more in depth than I needed to go personally and I was sort of getting tired of them by the end. Ghosts of the Ostfront though had my full attention start to finish.

    Same here, but regardless, dressing up as a magical creature and having a fake fight with someone else who is also dressed up as a magical creature is an order of magnitude more nerdy than playing a video game.

    Smokers / Grills

    I don't have that particular one, but I will say that if you are cooking overnight it's pretty damn awesome to just set an alarm every couple hours, roll over and look at your laptop to see that all is well in the smoker, and go back to sleep.

    I think it would suck badly to be a dentist in Montana just because of the popularity of Copenhagen.

    Even just using the sonicare toothbrush is pretty helpful. At least my dentist stopped nagging me about flossing when I started using the sonicare even though I still didn't floss. I think the cavity thing has a lot to do with genetics as well. I have had I think 2 or 3 cavities in my 38...

    One thing you have to say for Tomsula. If he is successful no one can really accuse him of just riding Harbaugh's coattails after this off season.

    They're not really getting rid of IE, just changing the name to something else that they're calling "project spartan". They're calling it an all new browser but I'm betting that it's just repackaged IE and they are hoping to get away from the stigma IE had back when it really sucked.

    Better Call Saul

    They showed his Saul commercials in the flash-forward at the beginning of the first episode. I can't believe that there are only 3 episodes left. 10 episodes isn't long enough for a season.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It was a quote from an actor on the show about an event that hasn't happened, albeit a vague one. To me that's a spoiler. Like I said though, it's just a request, I don't make the rules.

    I still love kiddie candy (laffy taffy, nerd ropes, trolli sour worms, sweet tarts, etc). I don't eat it regularly, and I feel slightly embarrassed buying it, but I have to have some once in a while. Usually when I'm on a road trip.

    Dan Carlin - Hardcore History Podcast & Common Sense Podcast

    That's always the complaint with Carlin. He is really picky about quality especially with the history show which is part of why it's so good but it gets pretty exasperating waiting for it sometimes.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Just a suggestion, but I would prefer that spoiler tags be used when discussing rumors like that. I really don't want to hear shit like that. I know that this is the spoiler thread, but up to now it's just been book spoilers.

    It could happen. Daniel Jeremiah gave me some hope on his podcast the other day though. He said that 49ers fans shouldn't be freaking out about losing these veterans because last year's draft was so good and most of these guys' replacements are already on the roster. That is not the consensus...
