I spam other threads with announcements from small presses that I get newsletters and updates from, so rather than constantly trying to find a thread for that specific title, genre, or author I thought I'd just make a thread that can be used for this type of content. There are a few primary...

Awesome! I also think Bill at SubPress said they’re doing the pre-order for TGiNW and the books are already in warehouse. Will be cool to get both this year! I remember when the cover art was released and everyone was speculating about who is on the cover. Need to refresh myself with Book 1 once...

I've listened to so much crap just because RC Bray narrated it. After Expeditionary Force and The Martian, I just downloaded anything I could find he did.

I need to redo this as an audiobook because my head just isn't creative enough to imbue characters with near as much personality that VAs can. I read The Martian and listened to the audiobook and while the book was enjoyable, the audiobook really made it great for me, much more than the film...

After seeing them back-to-back I do agree Casino Royal was the most well rounded movie and fully developed. The others were very enjoyable to me too though (not counting NTtD as we didn’t watch it) and felt worth watching. Trying to think about Bond villains vs Mission Impossible villains. Need...

Ultimate Edition is $38.62 which I may just end up doing even though I'll literally never have time to play it.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson also since Omega just signed him as an ambassador. Who knows at this point. We finished Spectre last night as we’ve spent the last couple of weeks re-watching all of them. Never saw No Time to Die and not sure I want too. Spectre was a great end to Daniel Craig bond as he...

This shit is so out there I have a hard to impossible time even explaining Season 1 and 2 to someone unfamiliar with Nathan for You or him at all. Ther was shit in this season that was mind bendingly insane. It is great stuff, but good God is it crazy.

Oh she’s definitely pretty blue hair crazy. In her commencement speech I posted a while back here or in the Book House she talks about how Murderbot is some allegory for body dysmorphia and trans ideas, and struggling with that identity, yadda yadda. But the dumb thing is that it almost comes...

Does the hub connection only provide power to the mining equipment, such as that 1st organics thing? So I still need to travel back to that spot and collect, but can now do it via fast travel? Also, guess I did spend too much time running around mining out of anxiety bc my base was full the 2nd...

I’m only like 30 minutes in, maybe, after three days because RL distractions keep popping up. Just did the first Organics thing with the pylons to connect back to base. Really need a chunk of time to sit and enjoy this. Seems good so far. Concerned about the base building and resource management...

Unfortunately, no. It was for a couple I knew from hanging out at bars and when I gave it to them they were building their deck. Since it’s been like 4 years since stopping drinking have lost contact with them 😅

I did one a couple years ago too. It isn’t that difficult and there’s 100 different ways to do the joinery. I based my measurements around the rocks glasses that a friend used and the typical dimensions of a whiskey they drank. It is oak and I used TotalBoat sealer and finish. Have a Fusion3D...

The only one I never got into out of that list (those lists) was Oddity. Just thought it wasn’t great. Oh and Black Phone. Otherwise I tend to trust those initial impressions a little more than generic Hollywood films. Or at least take it as a more positive barometer for what may interest me...

“Prox chat, so social stories can come to life” Looks like “fuck you fag” is back on the menu!

Hey, technically it just says Echo-4 Bundle and not Collectors Edition, right?

I just finished Season 3 yesterday and thought it was better than Season 2 by a bit. Didn't read this thread so no idea what the board consensus is. The only annoying part was Duffy's accent but by the end it was just too hilarious to be distracting. It was cool seeing Anthony Michael Hall...

Finished Swan Song finally, took a bit longer due to work and just being too tired at night to put in time. It was really great though. Highly enjoyed it and maybe didn’t keep the same level of greatness the whole way through, it was absolutely worth reading. So I’ve also started Boy’s Life and...

This stuff is pretty good; they have a few other blends as well but wanted to give this a shot first. Scorpion, Ghost, Reaper infused salt.

My first thought was “Boy, they really moved fast on the 2025 LA ICE riots movie.”

Did you have any issue loading the RTing ICC? I remember trying to do that on my Alienware one last year but the Windows profile manager thing was not intuitive and I couldn’t get it to load or save, some roadblock. Just remember giving up after 10 minutes and saying whatever.

He wore a "Make FPS Great Again" hat at an awards show and of course that isn't allowed so now he has to bow down and kiss the mustard hole.

I just went through watching all the Final Destination movies and TnA is so ubiquitous with the internet that it is almost meaningless. However! It is such a staple of the genre you notice when a movie doesn't have any. Just something else ruined in modern movies. Oh, about Final Destination, it...

Since we’re at Schwab we can’t do SPAXX, but after doing some reading it looks like SNAXX might be an option instead of SWVXX.

It was 1.5 hours of predator fight scenes with a little bit of story added on to connect everything. After the 10-minute Viking chapter at the start the animation smoothed out and wasn't bothersome at all. No idea why that particular portion is so exaggerated and shitty. It was pretty fun for...

Elaborate? You mean vs. just dumping it all in like SWVXX or similar? I guess if I'm using those 8-10% projection as gross returns and then factoring in the different tax implications the effective yield would be in the 5% - 7% range? The SCHO is tax exempt from state income tax but still hit...

If there's an appropriate post that covers this, feel free to point me there please. Unlike most threads on this site, this is one that I haven't read almost every post in and followed along it feels like. I'm playing with structuring our Money Market account so that we have access to some cash...

is my Hulu messed up or is this supposed to look like it is 14 frames per second on purpose? This is annoying.

Can confirm. We just hit 22 weeks on child 3 and it is like clockwork. Every other pregnant woman I’ve ever seen is gross though.

God, I can smell the BO from here.

Ole Lego head strikes again.

We had to put down one of our cats a couple moths ago for similar reason. She started puking a ton, we have a liter robot so went back and checked the logs and she had dropped like 3 lbs in less than three weeks. She was always a tiny tiny fur ball, max 9 lbs, but then suddenly she was 6 lbs...

Carry Handle you say?

Wait... Haven't been following this since I just assumed it was god awful trash and figured it was better to just ignore. But wasn't this originally Earth prior to the AvP movies and earlier and some rumor that it would tie into all that stuff? That trailer looks very future Earth with the...

I know we had the Montgomery Biscuits for a while down in, well, Montgomery. We went to Birmingham Barons games all the time, saw Michael Jordan play many games, but their logo and mascot wasn’t that interesting. When I was at school in Huntsville we went to a ton of hockey games and one of the...

Been tired of my Apple Watch and wanting to get back to more traditional watches. Going to mess with this Seiko SRPE53. Not really a bracelet person so have a few NATO and fabric straps with a sailcloth on the way. Have a leather strap for another watch but the lugs are 18mm instead of 20mm. If...

Well, I was going to mess around on Gamepass but then I had to install EA Play and decided I would rather go back to my work laptop and look at Excel.

Game aside I think it is at least worth the watch, just go into it with correct expectations and don't expect to be blown away. Related to the game (and from what I can remember, haven't played it since the initial release), it isn't really close. Totally new characters, new themes, you still...

I thought it was also pretty interesting hearing about the different preferences between lengths of grass. Had never even considered that.

@elidib your questions are answered at 2:18. Or does it just raise more questions? 😅
