Sounds like Memory Alpha just added all that stuff based on signs people were holding or something. Pretty sure literally none of that would happen. Maybe in ten years, since both the quality and competency levels seem to be on a gradual downslope. So wait, we got Starfleet Academy instead of...

I'm hoping for an Enterprise-G show, written by competent people. They do have competent people, since Season 3 was good and SNW is said to be solid most of the time. Moving things forward is all the fanbase wants, not a TOS remake or a bunch of dicking around in the 32nd century. Enterprise-G...

Got this bad boy. Any advice on grilling burgers? This is another first, want to do it right. Thickness, internal temperature at the center, etc. Last time I pan cooked burgers I overdid it and they were dry, so I want to avoid that at all costs with this nice piece here.

From Memory Alpha. Errr, what? When did any of the Trek shows say that March For Our Lives had anything to do with the Second Civil War? That's a pretty new development. Is this some fuckery from SNW? You know, getting rid of police and also getting rid of guns is an especially stupid...

Watched most of S2 this weekend. Yeah, more of the Mirror Universe would have been great. Latina doctor is something else, I hope Rios stays in the past with her. I don't even care that she's a single mom, I'd suck on her toes all day. Actually, some of the most interesting women I've met IRL...

Beef tongue was amazing when I used to have it at this one restaurant. They could marinade it in chili oil and mala spices overnight and slice it in thick slices. Was like eating a super-tender steak. I'd get one of those for $5 and have it with a bowl of rice for $1, basically every day for...

The whole bail/bond system seems like bullshit that just penalizes people for being poor. Just another way to bankrupt people and/or punish people who don't have the money to begin with. Never been in trouble with the law, but given how my year is going, I'm pretty sure I'll go to jail...

This was bad smoke too. Twice in the past I was in a closed space during a fire, trying to get people out, and both times I could hardly breathe but at least I could kind of see. This smoke instantly choked and blinded me. I still got the food into the damn grill though!

Well, those were my first kabobs ever. Doing chicken in a stick tonight and they're slathered in BBQ, and like you said, it's dripping on the coals and giving off lots of nice smoke. Sustained my first grilling injury today when I got a ton of smoke while pouring the coals and made the choice...

Depends on what it is. Kabobs, nope. Steaks I put truffle oil on 'em. Nice, yeah, it's working better now since I opened the trash chute vents.

Is that a CRPG? Maybe it can kickstart my CRPG Crusade again. I still haven't even played Morrowind or Planescape.

2026 has been the worst year for me, bar none, ever. I could get into why but it would probably be a slog to both write and read. Maybe I can give some sort of short version here. Enjoy, folks who get off on my not doing well (if there are any at this point). Hell, after all of this shit, if...

Both of these are on my radar. Shinobi game is really cheap right now too, or was the last time I looked. How long are these if only running the main game? Not in the mood for 100%ing anything but I'd like a Yoshi update and a Metroidvania for a little while. Currently running Metroid Dread for...

Not having any luck with that. There's no zip to download the program on there, I ran the Powershell command line to get it installed that way and it just went around in a circle with nothing installed at the end. Get.ps1 doesn't work either. Don't have time to fool with this right now...

OneDrive really is cancer. No option to re-download anything. Right clicking just shows normal file options. There's no OneDrive icon anywhere to right click either, just a folder with the whole desktop in it. Attempting to copy anything just results in a "can't copy, the cloud data provider is...

That sorted it. There's a "scratch" folder in Pinnacle Studio where it was keeping copies of pretty much every video or sound file I ever imported or edited, and it had swelled to mega proportions. Figured it was related to that program because every time I used it, my free space would dwindle...

Da fuq is this? Pretty much everything on my desktop is walled off. Looked it up and it's something called "Onedrive" that I never asked for. However, my computer doesn't seem to even have Onedrive on it. Looking it up online, everything says to just go sync Onedrive, but I can't do that if it...

Re watched Terminator 1. One of the best movies of all time made on a shoestring budget. Cost $1M, looks like it cost $20M, made $100M (and a billion more later). The Terminator itself is like a serpent. Arnold disappears completely. The Tech Noir scene in particular might be one of the best...

Kind of weird that this comes out the same year that we have all this UFO stuff being declassified. One of those things that makes me think that everything is just a big farce and string-pullers are laughing at us. Wasn't: Spielberg supposed to be outed as some sort of Weinsteinesque super creep?

Even more money to be made by betting on the Spurs now if they stop acting like rookies. Then again, they have many more title wins both behind and ahead of them and the Knicks haven't won in 53 years. Maybe NY deserves this moment. Hope they take the series in a home game, if they win, just...

NEVERMIND

BOTW is full of empty boring space and everything has that washed-out low-contrast look. I actually can't stand BOTW.

I thought the Spirit Temple basically was the Light Temple. Didn't it have light puzzles in it? Or was it more of a wind temple (so the counterpart of the Forest Temple)? Five was an odd number of temples, so a sixth being cut is believable.

As a San Antonio guy, I guess I picked the right playoffs to start watching again. Seems like the Western Finals were always Spurs/Thunder in the 2010s and that the Western teams always had a much better season record than the Eastern teams. Good to see not much has changed.

TBH the Knicks seem like huge underdogs in these finals. The Spurs were tired from the Thunder series and the Knicks were super well rested, so of course the Knicks excelled at first in the finals. Lot of money to be made right now by betting on the Spurs. Not saying they're a sure thing or...

My mom saw The Thing in a theater while pretty far along in pregnancy with me. She left during the dog scene. So there's a good chance that one of the first things I ever heard was the dog scene from The Thing. No wonder I've always gotten nervous around barking dogs.

So many modern movies have their stories demonstrably worsened by the writers needing to put over the wife/female partner/female character TBA. Mortal Kombat 2 was hurt by this and pretty much every movie I've watched lately had shoehorning-in of girl power at the expense of a male character...

Just want to say, this new Bloodstained game has a WAY more compelling art style than the new Castlevania, IMO:

Yeah, for a second I thought it actually WAS FF6 with the main logo looking like magitek armor a bit.

Yeah it has some of yesterday's coals in there. They still had some burning in them. The bottom you say? Far as I can tell, there's a lever down there for emptying ashes and another lever for taking the ash tray out. Least that's what I thought it was for. Explains why the coals were having...

This is about when I usually dump the coals out of the starter and into the grill: That look like about right? If I let it go longer it'll be fiery on top, less time and the top will still be black. Now I have these going. If I put the top on the Weber, sometimes the coals halfway go out...

Pretty sure it isn't physically possible for a guy to have that kind of waist to hip ratio, for one thing. No need to derail to find the 1/500000 example, TY. All XBox has to do is get Bethesda to do more stuff like this: A bunch of diverse characters stomping on a white guy coded villain...

Wait what? 2026? I expected it to be like 2029 at the end, if there was a date at all. No gameplay footage at all, but 2026? Doubt. That trailer makes me depressed because I know the game won't capture any of the magic I felt in 1999 and will, like the audio cues of the trailer, just make me...

With digital and streaming, they have you by the balls. That's why companies have been pushing those things so hard and subverting everything that came before. Slop levels though the roof because they know people wll consoom. Nothing's better than holding a game, and getting 90% of your money...

Absolutely, multiverses shit up everything. The latest Mortal Kombat game has like 20 universes combining so nothing means anything and characters get killed off constantly only to return one scene later. MVs are a crutch for lazy writers and make the audience not care.

"A part of history"? Is this the last Mortal Kombat movie ever or something? I wish I had that kind of fervor for corporate products. Kitana is pushed at the expense of everyone, no doubt. It's less about "she looked too strong" and more about "they made everyone else look weak to prop her...

This looks like a goddamn child However, it seems to only be from some angles, and in some shots, while in others she looks a few years older. In the trailer she looks like a kid when turning a certain way, then older when she finishes turning around. It's weird as hell. Looks like if you...

So you're saying... that Sephiroth drained Aerith's balls?

Wait, so they cast an actress as sexy as Camila Mendes to play this character: ...and then they put her in fucking PANTS? Well, anyway, this sounds like a solid movie that needs support, so I'll go see it tomorrow or Tues. I had no interest in this because I thought it was still part of that...

Dude, just stop playing and put it on eBay. I left behind my "I have to finish every game I start" mindset in like 2022. If you bought it digital, well, sorry, eat the loss I guess. Only time I get things digital is if I either know I love the game (Bloodborne) or if it's a deep sale (15 or...
