    This whole episode was gold. I knew exactly where they were going with the Kool Aid nickname though.

    Registration act is too close to X-men I think, so yeah they probably wont do that.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    The 150 mil includes marketing I believe. Anything close to 50 mil is a big win for an R rated movie. Prometheus was 51 mil and got a sequel and had a similar budget.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Maybe Civil War ENDS with the death, instead of it happening in the middle or end. I didn't really think about it beforehand.

    How many buckets of popcorn do you go through in 1 movie? :P

    More PCI lanes on the boards,DDR4, CPU power use cut by a third. Probably a whole lot of nothing for raw compute power, though if they actually TIM the chips right this time the overclockability might be insane.

    Not sure if this will be true going forward. DX12 might actually be able to put those extra PCI lanes to use for SLI setups with next gen cards.

    Yes, wait for Skylake or Broadwell-E at this point, depending what you want to build. EDIT: Actually, who the fuck knows, Intel's roadmap for the next year is all over the fucking place.

    Kumail did a hilarious interview on Seth Meyers like a month ago. This is only part of it.

    44.4 mil is pretty awesome for an R rated movie.

    Help with rain damage and insurance claim

    Yeah, this. Ideally you want both. The 2 engineers we had here couldn't spot a problem that the roofer spotted in literally 30 seconds. But the engineers did catch ventilation and other problems that the roofer did not.

    Help with rain damage and insurance claim

    Hard. A lot of builders contracts say that once it's been given a certificate of occupancy, they cannot be sued. Whether that contract holds up depends on your lawyer.

    Help with rain damage and insurance claim

    Insurance companies are not a charity. If you want what's yours, you have to fight them. Make sure to go over the text of the coverage very carefully.

    What's the worst movie you've seen at the theatre?

    I saw the Phantom Menace at midnight right around my 18th birthday and I knew it was shit by the next morning. Still went and saw it again to be sure.

    Pretty sure getting a Costco/BJs/Sam's Club membership is a gateway drug for being fat.

    Help with rain damage and insurance claim

    Still have to pay to fix the damages, not just prevent new ones.

    Help with rain damage and insurance claim

    My advice is to just keep pushing the insurance company if they deny you. They will always try to deny you for shit like this. Any secondary damages should still be covered. Also you will likely need an inspection from an independent roofer or engineer. NEVER EVER trust the engineers the...

    Bootstrappers guide to being successful.

    Once the 99% lose their last vestiges of political representation, then yes, I expect the food lines and gas lines to start right back up. And don't ever hope to get medical care. I expect the US to be unrecognizable in 15 years.

    I had the exact opposite experience. I practically died laughing the first time I saw it, and it was almost unwatchably bad the second time around.
