Painting oak cabinets. I'm trying to consider if I dislike the generic light stain oak cabinets in the kitchen to bother with the process of taking all the doors off and deglossing / priming / painting them. Has anyone done this? I found a few blogs / videos of people who took on this task...

110 N.F.L Brains New York Times article on the research of Dr. Ann McKee. Obvious selection bias since the families involved offered the posthumous opportunity to examine their loved ones based on a suspicion they suffered from a degenerative brain disorder. Even still it is fairly...

So Nessus is Venus 2.0

Could be a racist too...

I would agree that renting should be a viable option... except that in many cases renting is just as bad as buying without any gain of equity and no control over your own home. Look at who is buying 'rental' properties -- increasingly these are foreign investors who then hire bargain-basement...

Well we know that Olenna Tyrell is going to have at least one more major scene / sequence of scenes in this series. One does not get Dame Diana Rigg, the original kickass woman action hero, to come in for a single day of shooting.

I'll forgive Euron having Romulan Cloaking tech since that sequence effectively dealt with both Dorne and the Iron Islands, the two families I genuinely had little interest in when they got added into the story in the books.

I saw it, theater was virtually empty on opening weekend... not a good sign. The movie was incredibly 'French'. Hell the first 10 or so minutes is just a long cold opening bit that went on waaaay longer than I expected. At one point I leaned over and asked "is this Avatar 2?" owing to the...

Flight Whistle is, indeed, one of the best things they did this expansion. Even with flying I find myself using the whistle, especially when I want to go AFK right after finishing a world quest or whatever.

Spoilering for large image comparing Season 6 and Season 7 opening credits that I saw on Huffpost [/spoiler]

If we can't get Portal 3 at least someone is giving GLaDOS some work

That is indeed Traci 13, and she is Asian...just hard to tell with the Young Justice art style. Good to see them using both Static and Traci 13 although I would have thought they'd keep Rocket from Milestone as well. They seem to be trying to minimize the "Titans" crossover with Young Justice...

Sooo using the same music as the launch trailer for Mass Effect : Andromeda...

I do miss the Stargate franchise, this does not seem to be the right direction to take however.

I saw this same basic thing back in 2004 with the mockmentary CSA Seems so few people care about this IP that someone posted it to YouTube --

I was reading over the Bioware posting welcoming back Casey Hudson and only then remembered that Shadow Realms was announced and then immediately aborted a couple years ago. So under the previous Bioware leadership they have really been floundering. I have to wonder what life is like right...

I can't even begin to imagine who thought this was a good idea... More likely than not they KNOW its a terrible idea, but it was the least terrible idea they could come up with to implement such a fundamental core element that somehow got overlooked in the broader development cycle.

It is very pretty (not even on 4k here) but it is most definitely an 'expansion' and not a new title. What changes exist are functionally similar to the sorts of changes we see with new WoW expansions -- some details of the 'spec' is altered but the overall game engine and mechanics are exactly...

So, ever the financially responsible good-guy, I've carried a renter's insurance policy ever since getting my first apartment in college. Turns out this has paid off a bit as my homeowners insurance is being written as transformation of that original policy. With the long history and such my...

Someone at work linked to this in Slack: I mean it sounds really cool and all, especially since it runs by using a turbine fan to leech off your condenser vented air... but using vaporization to significantly lower air temperature is only going to really work in a very arid environment. It...

I have to wonder to what degree they are wanting to Marvel-ize Star Wars post Ep 9. If you treat the mainline Star Wars Saga films like you do the team flicks like Avengers then you have room to do things like a Poe/BB8 buddy cop adventure movie or a Rey lone warrior film or even a Kylo Ren...

They have a large number of reports, many from Chipotles in other locales, although obviously people are getting the link from the stories about Chipotle so there is likely a selection bias. I too had no idea such a thing existed.

Chipotle shares plummet following report of norovirus at Virginia restaurant What the fuck is with Chiptole and workers either not staying home when sick or not washing their goddamn hands? You would have thought after the disaster a year ago they would hammer that message home, but nope...

The 13th Doctor needs a plucky dudebro assistant

I would say Stranger Things because it really moved the needle and captured the imagination of everyone out of left field.

Small update. I guess their OMG 3 week delay on the closing was an overreaction to their predicament as they ended up formally requesting a two day extension. I did a ton of research on appliances and there are horror stories with every brand. Consumer Reports includes some basic stats on...

Grrrrr. Sellers have requested we move the closing date back to Sept 7th as it took them a long time to find a new place and they can't get into that before Labor Day. They also asked if we wanted to buy the washer/dryer from them since they wouldn't be able to take those with them now...

It has a definite John Carpenter vibe, but with a nice sprig of Lovecraft thrown in. It was a pleasant relief from the borderline grindhouse or Ed & Lorraine Warren based fare that dominates lately.

I also like the character building they do with the Vulture. Michael Keaton does a great job with the role and having him be a literal scavenger was a very nice touch.

It was nice to see the Iron Man supporting cast get some love in this film. Especially Jon Favreau as he pretty much launched the MCU

Oddly enough I meet those qualifications except for the item level...

Went to the MST3K 'Watch Out For Snakes' LIVE tour last night here in Boston. They only did Eegah here in Boston (other towns get a second 'secret' movie as a separate ticket) but they managed to create some quality riffs considering it had already been covered once before on the show...

Given that Azeroth is 'The Last Titan' I keep hoping the planet undergoes a Unicron-like transformation into battle mode thus resetting the landmasses again. I was recently helping a buddy get over his wife leaving him through MMO-therapy and running new characters in WoW and the Cataclysm...

Incoming psycho-witch Jaina in 5...4...3...

Remember this is back tonight!!

There was no season pass this time around. So perhaps someone at Mama EA saw the writing on the wall.

What I don't get is how, of all the games they have made, THIS was the one where they intentionally left out story elements for post-Netflix DLC. Leaving out mid-game content like Javik is one thing, but this was very cocky.

http://kotaku.com/sources-mass-effect-andromeda-will-not-get-single-pla-1796548159 So while the statement that the DLC was cancelled was a hoax, it seems to be that it couldn't be cancelled because it was never going to happen anyway. This is pretty sad given that they intentionally put the...
