He had a "university" or school whatever it was in Baton Rouge. After he got caught with a hooker in the bad part of town all that went poof. My niece used to competitive diving at the giant pool someone took over. The place was really nice, seemed pretty lavish for a religious shool. Some...

I take insulin and keep nearly a years supply on hand of both types. I buy over the counter no prescription needed and it works well for me. I just use the oldest and put anything I buy new to the back of the rotation. I have a well so that takes care of water and I can fire up the whole house...

Living in a very isolated or very rual area makes you at least partly prepper. Also growing up in a hurricane area does it. The longest I've gone without power to the house was 7 days. I had a whole house generator but you can only run one so long full time which I did not do. It was just...

Thanks for the info. Going to pick it up. I know a number of games that have some kind of dribving in it don't work so well with keyboard and mouse.

I thought about Cyberpunk. I don't know much about it other than when it first came out people complaining. I only game with a keyboard and a mouse and not a controller. Just glancing it looks like it is more console oriented. Is it?

Back in the day before laptops took off portable computers were called suitcase computers or luggables. What's old is new again.

I've seen some odd stuff at a doctors office, well it happened again. You would think once 10 years ago it wasn't such a big deal because it wasn't as known then. When I get a copy of a MRI to take to another doctor/hospital they always give it on a CD and told "that's just the way it is"...

Sometimes I have to go to a job site for measurements and a quick discussion with a few engineers and field people (project managers) and such. A number of sites you can't carry a phone and it's amazing the number of engineers and people that use math all day in their job can't add 2+2 without...

Called secretaries or assistants.

Was it Microsoft that picked up terrabytes of digital copywrited stuff to train their AI but it was "okay" because they didn't seed it out and share it with others. But for them it was okay.

Buying a console now in advance of a release I would be concerned a new console would be released before the game considering how some games get tied up for years now.

Kind of like in business some people say things about the companies I do work for "How can they make any money doing that?, I tell them they loose money on everything they build, they make it up in bulk". You get some great looks, some laughs and some that look like they are really turning that...

Talk started a few hours ago that CCP is for sale by Pearl Abyss. I haven't been able to find anything other than an article some time ago that Pearl Abyss was looking to sell CCP/Eve. Found it I guess. Translation is kind funky in places. https://news.mtn.co.kr/news-detail/2025061910371430049...

If you don't like someone you can ignore them and never talk to them in camp, or kill them and that is that. Or (small spoiler ahead) kill them and put them in your bag and send the corpse to camp to use it later so you get specific dialog options and events much later. I'm looking at your pale boy.

No kids. 'If" I had a kid at age 25 the kid would be 30 now. Yes all the women I know now are in one of two camps. "I'm super excited I might be a grandmother soon" or " don't ever bring up the word grand kid again I'm not that old."

Looks like "two men enter, one man leave'.

I fly a lot less than I used to. Not because of planes crashing or any company that makes them. Airlines have worked hard to make it cheap enough to fly that literally anyone could and did fly. Greyhound in the skies is not a great thing. I did take a flight to Japan because it's hard to drive...

Pretty sure my dad had a son so I could mow the yard and shit around the house.

I flew on a commercial flight during that time period. In the 70s and 80s there were still a number of commercial planes that were once military. Not everything then was Boeing or Airbus. One flight I took the back end opened up and a ramp came down which obviously was used for moving things in...

You can skip all that if wanted. A few lines of conversation that starts and you can shut it down and that is the end of it. Act 3 still feels like they ran out of time and threw everything they had into the game. But you can see the woke shit coming and can shut it down and you don't get any...

I'm out. I was super pumped for a new PoE 1 league. I only did a very little and found it meh. Maybe the mercs get better with mapping or something. I'll see next league.

When I was very young and arcade games were a big thing and not many of them around the dentist I went to had a pacman game, one of those where it was a flat table and two people faced each other. It probably made great bank for the dentist while all the kids waited to see the dentist. He...

It really doesn't matter but I noticed on my server list when letting it pick "the best" I get D.C. now all day yesterday even though I'm in TX and it's normally TX. For a while late last night I tried it again and it went to CA.

Could have been pilot error, who knows. They did fly into the ground with the flaps up which are normally extended at slow speeds to provide more lift.

I should have watched a video which I did not. Got a mercenary and had no clue what to do, thought hire was just hire and go on your way. Not so lol.

I looked at filterblade today and my last loot filter was made 238 days ago. Lot to catch up on.

Still high. My niece is married to a guy from north, Louisiana near the MS river and al the farms and a lot of the small town is flooded. The water is rising out of the ground miles away from the levee system. Out of my experience entirely but guessing at that point the only option is to wait...

Crazy is my amateur radio can send a signal literally to the other side of the world if the signal propagation is right and works off a 120v outlet. Of course you can really use a lot more power with an amp to make sure the propagation is right but still crazy compared to a desktop computer...

Need 240v plug to get full wattage. I wonder how many have that in the US near their computer? I don't and have 240v outlets in several places. None near my computer. Maybe when google gets their nuke plants up and running they will get into minaturization for it.

Got new PC in. Mine had Asrock MB and Asrock 9070XT Steel legend. It didn't matter to me and I was sure they buy what they can get cheap in bulk. First time to use Windows 11. Currently installing windows 10 that I had a copy and key for. I don't care if it's not seure, nothing on that computer...

Hmmm. Anybody get hit with this? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fidelity-website-outage-blocks-users-145852145.html I am not a big trader and most of my porfolio now is in asset protection rather than growth. At the first of the year I sold some (not all) of my Nvidia stock. For one reason...

I've done a number of runs, some I poke around and do quest after quest and I'm not sure I hit 12 in act two but if you watch some bg3 challange runners they do a lot of goofy rule sets so they over level and not unusual for someone to be lvl 9 in act 1. I only have moonrise left on my current...

I'm of the opinion that act 3 should have been broken in two. I didn't not play early acess and to me it seems like they had a lot of content and they had to make sure it all "got in". On explosive stuff I've never really used them, steal a bucnh from goblin camp normally and pick up all I can...

Woo Hoo got an email from Amazon, they found it and tracking shows it to be in the same small town in TX it was for 2 days before it magically showed up in FL. Track doesn't show it arriving or being shipped. I bet it was mis scanned or whatever and it magically showed up. Maybe Monday the box I...

I did get a UPS tracking update one time that said "delayed due to train derailment". I eventually got that package, must have been a later train lol. Amazon has been super vague, which I don't understand why amazon is sending anything at all considering I didn't send them anything first.

Amazon is still sending emails multiple times a day it's still in transit. Tracking shows it hasn't moved at all.

That's what I normally do but I really need to level some. Best kills is overkill. Lined up some smokepoder bombs on the side they mostly come from. Invis arcane archer set them off with a wall of fire scroll. The other side was easy pickings with giant barb. I only took those two. It's kind of...

Played a little with arcane archer. Seems like it is very very good early on. Banishment at lvl 3 and you can do it twice per turn. Rapidly drops off around lvl 6-7 though. Cut off Gales hand. Kind of wish I had a wizard now for the upcoming shadow invasion defending the portal. Of course my...
