You’re supposed to tag me if an MP5K is displayed on the cover, you know?

Could you put the fridge where the double oven/nook is now and the nook adjacent to the sink? I’d only be worried about opening the left door of the fridge past 70 degrees or so without a large spacer between there and the wall. Putting it in the other spot gives full clearance, but you’d also...

http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/23963-pontypool Since I watched Undertone earlier I wanted to go back and watch this since it has been on my list for a while. Not exactly the same premise or anything, a little bigger scope. Three main characters instead of one, inside a radio station mostly...

Will they find a way to work in Passenger by Deftones?

Yeah, when we go tomorrow afternoon I'm going to lobby for granite and see if we can find an option that wife likes. She knows absolutely nothing about any countertop material, differences, or trends and cares zero about what is in or what anyone else thinks. It could be $0.50 a foot and she's...

Signed contract and locked in at the bank. Rates dropped so we're at 6.5% for our loan with the option to drop lower if we move into non-Jumbo at conversion and could still buy points. Will have to run the numbers at closing and see.

This isn't terrible but may be hard to recommend. I do enjoy these types of movies and have said before just an actor in a room carrying the whole thing is a genre that is cool. That's mostly what this is. There are a few other "podcast" and found audio movies that are similar. Monolith is the...

This looks great.

My comments were more material based than color as far as "timeless" is concerned. Laminate, Quartz, Corian, Quartzite, Marble, whatever I mean it all goes around and around, but hardly anyone dismisses granite as being the standby or default from a "timeless" perspective. That's my read on it...

We're leaning towards Quartz as it is. I'm way more partial to Granite b/c it has proven to be timeless (people pearl clutch already b/c of the epoxy used to make quartz), we both like the colors and movement in granite more than the trendy starkness of white quartz/quartzite and heavy contrast...

Spent a couple of hours last week doing floors at a local shop, picked out what we’re pretty sure we want for downstairs in main living area, laundry, pantry, mudroom. Upstairs carpet. Close to all our flooring. We at least got product ranges and styles down if not specific colors, and made sure...

There are a few instances of hardcoded Russian subs that translate things like writing on instruments or whiteboards, signs. Nothing major. Everything else is perfect.

I never spent any time in Oslo but did spend about a week in Hønefoss and it was really nice. I concede the CZ thing as a nitpick, once again :)

Hah that's definitely true and I'm sure it is bias from being an enthusiast. Man, I'm sure we can all relate to them showing video games in movies / tv shows. The way they hold controllers and randomly push buttons, the background music. It is always so wrong and frustrating. Hah! The bird...

I'm about 3 episodes in, can barely even remember or care to pay attention. Agree with everything you say though. Also, I found it laughable where on the 1st episode they make a claim that "no one in Norway even knows what CZ is." I get that firearm culture and exposure varies greatly, but to...

Don’t you mean… FLAWLESS

So tired of looking at faucets, and tubs, and fans, doorknobs and making spreadsheets, jeez... Made a sheet to track everything we've selected so far and see where we are in general with allowance budgets. 18 different tabs with all my line items and our current selection total vs. the builder...

There was a short film by Dust that came out not too long ago. Dust is pretty popular sci-fi short troupe and puts out some interesting stuff. I also posted over in my Small Press thread a while back that Conversation Tree Press is doing an edition of the book. They had a waitlist sign up...

It's not our fault some of us grew up in Alabama and it is all we know.

There’s like 50 posts above you all saying they don’t like the visual style, man.

Yeah, I've done various ChatGPT-fu and the opportunity cost vs. what the interest rate may be at time of closing, let's say June 2027? It'll take 20-30 days to get through this loan process which puts us in the start of May. We could conceivably break ground then. My biggest anxiety, even...

That's cool to know, and the kind of feedback I was hoping for. I wish I could convince my wife to like levers instead of knobs (rimshot), but she is really not going for it. One place I have convinced her is the entry from the garage because sometimes turning that door knob with your hands full...

They’re legit. Just don’t be surprised when they ask you to pick it up in person at the Popeye’s on MLK. And bring cash.

Yeah, I don't think we would unless it came to real cruch time hah. Didn't paste our Exterior Doors. We currently have 3 from Weather shield and the front door the builder liked this Southwood Doors product. There's only so much brain power I can devote to every single decision. We're okay with...

Since everyone got a good laugh at my expense in the Gun thread about Doors and Doorknobs, I thought it'd be best to restart the conversation here for additional criticism. I'll preface it by saying we have no passion about doorknobs or any idea that they should be some "statement" piece on the...

ChatGPT can for sure, when we bought our land it was direct from seller and really there was no need for any type of agent to be involved. They may need to be prepared to pay for a survey defining the legal boundary of the parcel, may also want any type of topographic data, geotechnical data...

I feel like Carter Beauford is overlooked as a drummer in the mainstream b/c Dave Matthews Band was just so... something. I saw DMB like twice? And saw Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds live in Boone, NC once. I loved listening to DMB but hated every one of their fans. It was as bad as Pearl Jam...

Didn't really love this but it had a lot more to do with it being wrapped around YouTubers and the rival Creeper vs. whatever crap. The Paragon stuff, monster stuff, whatever was fine, but all the 2020s streamer shit just irritated me. It was fine, probably won't revisit it.

Yeah I’ve played it off and on with our 8 year old the last few years as his interest in Minecraft has waxed and waned. Would be willing to give this a go. Our 2.5 year old is starting to get interested and we listen to that Dan Bull BOOM BOOM BOOM song about 800 times a day at his request.

Had a big meeting with Builder today and reviewed our entire project budget. First time we've seen a full total and reviewed all numbers. We went through probably ~80 line items and the allowance and cost quotation. I'll summarize most of the stuff below. Keep in mind, please, I'm mostly...

yeah I have a whole project equipment list saved on Ubiqiti's site, going to have to refresh it here and see what's up. I'll get an excel file of this whole build sheet and go update my blog in the Home Buying thread so everyone can laugh at us.

Oh, for sure. It is funny b/c on my day job I review construction drawings and shelter / building drawings for telecom locations and cable chases, conduit, etc is always a point of conversation. Pivot to normal life and my disconnect is like "oh okay, let's discuss one of the other 10,000 things...

We didn't have enough time to get into the specific mechanics of installation for every line item. It was like 95 different categories and subcategories. Just glancing at my breakout Electric is currently broken down into Lighting Allowance: $15,000 (for us to go find fans, vanity lights...

Still not sure… actually just got home from 2.5hr meeting with builder going over cost. He put an allowance for $10k in for home security and 3-zone sound and cameras. Something we’re going to have to dive in to and see where we land overall budget wise. I told him to just pull it all and make...

I was lucky enough to pick up a Numbered with the profits after selling my lettered edition. Should look amazing once all are on the shelf. The spine on the Artist Editions are supposed to make one full scene.

Hah “failed to find a significant audience.” But my 87% critics rating!

Morning rant while we hopefully get some initial full build pricing from our Builder today. We were going to get it Friday but his framing quote was running behind. The most difficult part of this whole process so far (not the minor irritations and annoyances) has been managing my Mother-In-Law...

Regarding the AI comments above

Just finished watching this with the kids and it wasn’t that bad. The whole movie just sort of unfolds and doesn’t really pause for filler or heavy explanation or preaching. Allows for the main characters to bond and experience loss. Kids laughed at the animation and funny humor, we laughed at...
