OK, regarding the offset front door.... By adding one light and a flower box below it makes it much more pleasing to my eye... (Forgive the cheap MS Paint shop work here) Also, it would allow for you to have a murder slot snipers opening behind the flowers which would be accessible from the...

Yeah, but it also made decent "lazy person XP" to park an alt next to him. heh

OK maybe not "best" but....

OK. building a new "mother box" for the house. Goals will be : n8n installed for playing with automation On machine non-internet LLM of some kind (probably via Ollama) to tie into automation Home Assistant to build out my non-internet reliant home automation (and yes, tying into n8n and the...

And the prophets of Bull Jesus have spoken.. SO SAYS THE LORD All hail his girthy green might!

If you have a heat gun use that to warm it up and re-bend it. Then swap the halogen out for an LED equivalent for a low heat answer. heh

I feel for you that you obviously married a not cool wife, or a wife who was so cool she did so many drugs, that she forgot what cool was. Because that, my good sir, is pretty much the opposite of cool. Doesn't take AI. I have been listening to Scott Bradley's Postmodern Jukebox for years. I...

This is essentially the relationship between my mom and I. She was essentially the big sister black sheep who couldn't manage her life at all, while I was the younger sibling who actually took after the people who raised him, so has to be the "responsible" one.

My mom is 75. And I don't know if this confirms of refutes your opinion.. but... I consider the best thing she ever did for me was letting my grandparents adopt me and raise me as their 5th kid (her being their 4th). Now my half sister and I have to split duties caring for her, but I still...

I wonder how this sits with the devout Lucasites who believe his word is law and the "specialized" editions are the one true gospel... Related :

Over in the Jimmy Rustling thread you can see where I just cut the big cord (cancelled AT&T Uverse), and we're doing a "critical review" of the others. Amazon Prime we use for the shipping benefits and other stuff, so we'll still have Prime Video, Paramount+ we get for "free" with other...

This may or may not be a main driver behind my new fun time side project of building a new media and "home server" multi purpose box that's going to , if I can get it all working right, have around 80TB of media space. Will run n8n, home assistant, Plex, TrueNAS, etc in one big ass box.

And I'm willing to bet their sub numbers are about to slide hard with their biggest show wrapped up. What is the next "Stranger Things" in the Netflix bag of tricks? Adjacent to that would be the question of how high they think they can raise their sub costs before their original value prop of...

In my case, this is the "sounding board" part of my process. I'm mostly doing a check on "I'm pretty sure this is the smart and easy play, but what do you guys know I might be missing". I ask that because I'll be the first to admit a lot of the folks posting in this thread obviously know a ton...

Congrats on hitting that milestone sir! I see that happening for my wife and I in probably 2-3 years. But as discussed elsewhere for me I know it will mean finding something to downshift into to stay busy for a while, just not needing to do the full court press making money like I am right...

Helicopter training accident....

Wife and I are currently rolling Samsung S20 FEs. I've had to have one cracked glass replaced (random drop which landed flat on the one pebble in a parking lot...) and while they did it I had the replace the battery. Both are still doing everything we could need our phones to do, and I...

Same crew has also put out Star Trek and other AI videos around this theme. My favorite so far was the Stargate SG-1 video... I can highly appreciate several things in that video.

I do wonder how WMT will facilitate this.... Lightning network?

I want an android phone.... But I'm so old I had a G1 and remember the Blackberry...

It wasn't just the actors they wasted... They took two of the most intense Thor story lines (Jane Foster Thor and Gor the Godbutcher) which both could have been really good stories on their own, they then tried to combine them, handed it to someone who obviously wanted to make a Thor RomCom and...

She is far more the Anime fan than I am. (Still need to finish Sakamoto Days) But also she worked in the import/distribution/retail side of Anime/Jpop/Manga/All things Japan long enough to have accumulated quite the library of everything she likes for the most part and barely watches it...

My neighborhood was built in the 60's and still has the overhead power infrastructure to show for it. At least once a year we will have an outage for one reason or another lasting a couple/few days. To the point that when i recently got the electrical panel replaced (another long painful...

In part of my never ending cascade of side quest hobbies... I am now also Haus - Beginner tier candlemaker. All this started when my wife's favorite candle scent (Pumpkin Souffle from Anthropologie) was cancelled, so I wanted to see if i could recreate it. Since I already had wax melting...

I'm in N. Texas, I suspect in the next 2 months we'll have "winter" and by that I mean a couple weeks where the low will get below freezing, we might have "Super winter storm" which would mean 2-3 days of it staying below freezing. Then we have the wet season which usually lasts until May...

So... now I have had the drain under the house replaced. So in theory I'm no longer creating an impromptu septic system under my house and the middle of the slab SHOULD recede back down to normal elevation.... Question is how long I need to wait to call it "back to where it should be", since...

Eventually we're going to see a show on a "true crime" network about a guy on a gaming board who kept necro-ing old threads until he hunted down long gone users and eventually made a suit of their skin in order to "feel alive".... I can tell.

The world of financial world level KYC being extended into the rest of the internet. Enjoy the next 5 years.....

We actually order enough through Amazon that prime wasn't a horrible deal for us even before they added Prime Video, so that will probably stay around. Netflix is about to go buh-bye, Hulu's already gone (The wife decided we were giving NO money to Hulu/Disney), I'm pretty sure she cancelled...

Yeah, part of me is surprised they aren't building basic OTA antennas into the TVs now. But then I remember that it's more profitable for the TV manufacturers to bundle a bunch of low cost streaming channels together as a bundle that "comes with" your TV and then make ad money off them.

What's the rustle du jour? In a word, or more accurately three letters and a word : AT&T Uverse After having it for years, and slowly coming to the realization that it probably wasn't worth the cost (Around $220 a month) we hit an inflection point. A month ago the Uverse box in our living...

Worked perfectly for me, but I'm in Brave. Also fluidly imported my old save game.

Just tried it on Y8, it's not forcing full screen on me I have it windowed. And it's still running when not the front window on the system.

Yeah, I'm at a juncture with my current company where either my position/role needs to change, or the company I'm working for needs to change, and having the financial capability to say "I could just not work for a bit while I find my next thing I feel is worthwhile" is astoundingly comforting.

We're both close to some family. I don't have a ton outside Dallas (one Nephew in TN, one in Louisiana). The amount of time we spent fighting the fertility fight, then the subsequent medical nightmares it put my wife through (do NOT underestimate the hormonal wringer multiple rounds of IVF...

Don't take away our collective dreams sir... .It's new Year's Day for God's sake!

Gonna go out on a limb here with my personal analysis.... Your brother is a pussy whipped cuck with no, what we call here in Texas, "Scene Control". Sorry you had to deal with the brunt of that. Hopefully he'll realize the situation and sack up and get some things rectified. For my chip...

And you can make it even better with a little effort, a video card with at least 24GB of RAM, and some LoRA retaining sessions....
