    Do you have choice or is it a "it would be a shame if we had to evoke eminent domain" to run these high power lines?

    House of the Dragon

    I looked for them, for a short amount of time, but didn't see anything other than "the plot does a good job following the books; if you read the books, nothing will be a surprise." Reddit was nuking anything related to it, but I'm sure there are copies floating around, you just have to find it...

    Jagged Alliance 3

    True. Never played either of those due to the reviews being poor, then promptly forgot about them. Maybe they learned from past mistakes...eventually, someone will have to...right?!? The developer has a decent track record for games, but none of them are squad based tactics. They have made good...

    Jagged Alliance 3

    Doesn't look terrible. Using a lot of the old characters in that trailer. I recognize Ivan, MD, Steroid, Hitman, Red, Igor, Buns, Meltdown and Grunty. Would be cool if they got the same voice actors.

    Austin

    I find all cities boring and skippable. I would rather go to the outskirts of Houston to walk on the USS Texas, or Corpus Christi to walk the USS Lexington, than set foot in Austin or San Antonio again. Regardless, here are a few more thoughts on the Austin area: The LBJ presidential library...

    Austin

    If you want a scenic drive, you can take interstate 281 instead of 35. It will take more time, but you will see more hill country. Although I'm not sure how nice it looks after a couple months of 100 degree temps. While 35 is still faster, it usually has a bunch of traffic and since it is a...

    Single greatest song ever written?

    Well yea, I never want to hear the song again, but then I'd be fine if I never heard another John Denver song again either... Also, I'm highly suspect that people all over the world sing Country Roads, really. Maybe some English speaking places in Eurostan, and in Japan, but India, Russia, UAE...

    Better Call Saul

    Sure, but 280p still took hours to download, and again, we are talkin about YouTube, where it is only allowed to buffer for so long. So I guess she could have watched a minute or two at a time, then waited 10 min for the next min or two to buffer...but that's not the impression you get. This...

    Better Call Saul

    Did you ever use dial up? I doubt 56k could stream 240p youtube videos and there is no chance it could handle 720 or 1080. Downloading songs from Napster took 30 minutes+ and those were 128 bit rate mp3 files.

    Single greatest song ever written?

    If "touching" people all over the world is what makes a great song, then the Muslim Adhan is the greatest song ever written. Every Muslim uses the song as a call to prayer, and every person that lives in a Muslim country (and some European cities(?:emoji_nose: have to listen to that fucking bullshit...

    Single greatest song ever written?

    Part of this is an evolving tech issue, and part of it is just getting old. I don't think you have to scour the internet, its just that things have changed to all be app based, instead of radio. Furthermore, tastes will always change, for every song linked in this thread you can find a whole...

    Single greatest song ever written?

    No such thing as a best song unless there is some way to apply math to it (or at the very least, some criteria that at least 51+ percent of the population could agree on), to measure it. It might be easier to break it down as "Favorite song of each decade" or "Favorite song per genre." While...

    Haven't followed MMA in many a year, so not sure if this has been linked here before. Stumbled across some Chinese MMA dude called Xu Xiaodong {Mad Dog} who has an open challenge to fight any of the various Wushu masters in China. The few fights on his channel haven't even lasted one round...

    Wild Wild Country

    Is this part of the land used by the cult or whatever? I watched the documentary, but it was so boring, I have forgot most of it (Netflix made a few good docs, such as The Keepers, then it seemed like they started trying to add run time to pad their numbers). I see buildings there, but it looks...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    You can always mod the game to cut out the uggo main character (I am surprised no one figured out how to replace just her face): One of them subs other models in for Aloy There is always a nekkid mod, so you could go as "degrading" as possible, which I'm sure the Devs love: or you could...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That's a nice looking car, and I usually hate that body style. Those rims complement it well, but like all after market rims, I could never pay the price for new ones, when I have perfectly working ones on the car already. If I am going to spend money on my car, there are just too many things I...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I doubt that is original paint. No way a GM factory paint job from the 80s or early 90s holds up like that for 123,800+ miles. Looks like he replaced the plastics/rubber trim, tail lights, turn signals, and at least fog lights; it was probably all done when it was repainted. He is running in...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    "Don't worry, this is only alpha, they will fix it before release!!!" The talent trees should be easier to fix than past xpac systems that were already a failure in those Alphas, but ActiBliz no longer gets the benefit of the doubt.

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    Yea, no idea how to best remove, on a large scale, grass/plants you don't want without dumping a bunch of chemicals on it. I would assume that it is growing on neighboring properties, so you would need a replacement grass that can out compete it, when you plant new stuff. May have to also take...

    Don't get on the lawn upkeep treadmill, if you can help it. All the grass sold in big box stores are going to require irrigation and chemicals for weeds and all that shit. It's a bunch of bullshit pushed to keep you paying. Billion dollar industry and all that. Order some native seed if you...

    Not sure this is something to be proud of, chief. It reads like "My mom wiped my ass all the way up until my wife took over." Congrats on never learning an adult "skill," I guess.

    Palmer (2021)

    So disappointing, I was convinced this was about the epic journey of Robert Palmer. P.S. Are you trying to step on Ossoi's toes by starting a thread for a shitty movie before he does? I guess that makes the video even more relevant for you and Ossoi.

    That's a new one. I thought it was some marketing bullshit and you were just talking about getting a new set of mufflers for your car; until I looked it up.
