I cut my thumb pretty good at one point (I was sitting there like, why is my pry bar all sticky...oh, my hand is covered in blood). I was actually pretty surprised that was my only injury, and it was more than halfway through it. My hands have a few nicks, and they're sore as shit, but that's it.

My countertop guy still hasn't scheduled when he's coming, but he mentioned this upcoming week. Hopefully they call tomorrow. Anyway, after work on Friday I decided I'd try to take out a section of the backsplash and possibly replace the drywall underneath. That turned into me ripping out half...

Thought it was decent to good. It definitely had some problems, but a lot of sci fi does. It was kind of funny where towards the end I said to my wife, "now that they can access the crew cabins, they should just wake them up to fix it." Sure enough, the next scene they're both in the...

I went back and looked at the last few seasons, and there have been a LOT of misses. Probably outnumber the good episodes 3:1. But those good ones? They've been knocking them out of the park.

So the Redskins essentially make a trade of Cousins for Romo? Yeah...that totally makes sense.

I didn't think that was super dark, assuming you're talking about the Cricket episode. But maybe you're a week behind? I had read your comment before watching this week's and expected something super fucked up to happen to Cricket. Fucking his dad's dog seemed pretty mild considering it's Cricket.

From what I've read, with DMCA's, they just dump a couple pieces each, but each indexer seems to do random ones. That way it's "gone." The way around that is to use two indexers because they'll likely have different missing pieces, so you can still end up with the entire file. Dunno how legit...

Anyone know of any free usenet indexers? Currently using Tweaknews and I'm happy with it, but I think I need a secondary one for stuff that gets DMCA'd. It's been a growing problem lately, especially for movies, for anything over about 6 months old. I could obviously pay for a 2nd one (and...

I'm not super excited about this season in general. Tired of seeing a lot of these people. Sandra and Cirie? Fucking yawn.

I actually figured that out by accident, when one of our estimators came in, looked at our kitchen and said, "That's 2 slabs, about $xxxx." Didn't take a single measurement. Figured out at that point you're basically just buying the whole slab. Anything leftover is probably made into a sample or...

Oh, sorry. No, that's what they were saying was included in the $4500 for the kitchen. He said an additional $1500 if I wanted a tile backsplash. But fuck that. Tiling is way too easy to pay someone else to do it.

Tile countertops (and backsplash). It's for the kitchen and two bathrooms. Also includes plywood (although that's incredibly minor). We considered doing the demo ourselves, but I said fuck that, mostly just because I don't feel like spending my weekend doing it. And I agree on the backsplash...

I'd probably be fine with just getting a price per square foot. I just have a hard time with receiving an estimate that says "a, b, c, d, e" and I say, "I'll do c myself and don't want e" and the estimate is still the same. I know it's just an estimate, but it doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy...

How should I expect something like a countertop installation to be invoiced? We got a few estimates for it, but they were all just a single sum, which seemed strange to me. I asked the contractor that we decided to go with to give me a breakout of the costs, but it was still kind of...not what...

He's deserved it. The big question mark will be if Ben retires, who the hell will throw him the ball?

Oscars just proving how much of a joke they are. Also, anyone else find it strange that last year there was the whole #OscarsSoWhite thing, and this year a shit load of awards go to the "black movie?" I guess on the plus side, most people seem to be getting tired of Hollywood sucking their own...

I wasn't saying YouTube was dead. Just that anyone hoping to start up a random channel and quit their jobs probably already missed their opportunity.

I honestly think the YouTube wave has mostly ended. It's very saturated. You'll get the occasional new thing like "guy cuts random shit with 2000 degree knife," but unless you come up with some click baitey shit like that, good luck making more than a few hundred bucks.

I just don't understand people who are able to burn through a six figure household income, paycheck to paycheck. We currently save somewhere around $60k a year. I have no idea what I'd buy every month to burn through that. As is, we spend pretty lavishly (we just went to Disneyland this week...

I actually somewhat agree with a_skeleton_03 regarding credit for emergencies. Emergency funds are great for people with nothing saved at all. This is, currently, the area where my wife and I are finally getting around to changing. We have a little over $200k in retirement accounts and like...

Have had it downloaded since October of 2015, but I finally got around to watching Southpaw. Damn good movie. Honestly, Gyllenhaal is quickly pulling away as my favorite actor.

Did she go to the style awards dressed as Willy Wonka's wallpaper?

If not for the people, California is just absolutely amazing. I might say the same thing about Utah, too (not sure how anyone deals with their winters though). But California is just gorgeous. Fucking everywhere. And it's super diverse.

It's the final season, too. I quit it. Just not worth 20 minutes of my time anymore.

Ha. I'm 33. Did you actually live in Howard County? I went to 3 different high schools, and generally was pretty introverted (Wilde Lake 00-02, Atholton 99-00, River Hill 98-99). Didn't play any sports. And Alex, I wasn't saying SF sucks. Just that people think all of CA is those two cities...

I'm saying, on the whole, Maryland is the bottom of my list of places I've lived. People say California sucks, because they only consider LA and SF. The rest of the state is fucking amazing. People say Kentucky is just filled with rednecks and hillbillies, but the cities aren't even remotely...

Columbia, from 1986 until 2002. I'd say it's probably one of the nicest places in the state (it's certainly the most prosperous). Seriously, I can't think of anything the state offers that makes it stand above any of the other states I've lived in. It's crowded, the outdoors suck there, the...

Maryland is a fucking terrible state. Grew up there, and whenever I go back to visit family I'm like, "I would never want to live here...ever." I've lived in 7 states for decent periods of time (Florida, Maryland, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, California) and of that list, I think...

I installed a Luxe bidet like a year ago. I hate it. Hits my anus dead on and kind of hurts.

That was a good one with a really fucked up ending. Jesus...

I thought the numbers for cutting him didn't make any sense?

I feel like Mississippi is always the biggest shit hole when you get down to numbers. They have terrible schools, tons of fat people, lots of dumb ones. I don't feel like the state has too much going for it.

I didn't even remember that it was a higher number of games. That must be why I played it for like 4 or 5 matches and then never touched it again.

The TI6 compendium had a TI6 matchmaking thing where you got a completely different MMR (everyone recalibrated). If you liked your TI6 MMR, at the end of it, you could make that your new MMR.

I don't think that's how the system works. I believe it's a bell curve, or at least one in theory, but it'd be kind of a fucked up looking one right now. And fight, yes, you're absolutely correct that if you're better than your MMR you'll go up. But if you're not putting in the kinds of hours...

I watched a video the other day about it, and apparently they used some chess ranking algorithm. Which is great if Dota 2 was a single player game, but for something with 5 people it doesn't work, because you can lose for things outside of your control. It works with chess because the sub-25...

Yeah, why would you want to see the pussy shot when you could see a thick meaty cock shot instead, right consensus?

Found this article on the financial independence reddit. Google paid their autonomous vehicle engineers so much (in hopes of retaining them) that a lot of them quit. Engineers on Google's self-driving car project were paid so much that they quit

Yeah, I think I calibrated around 1300 or 1400. Some games you can absolutely stomp, but then you end up with teams where they just feed and feed and feed, and you have absolutely no shot at winning. I stopped playing support because in the games where it's pretty even, the 5 carry team ends up...

What exactly is the point of Pornhub premium, and why would I want it for free for a day?
