This was pretty much exactly what it appears to be. The plane crash scene was pretty intense and well done as far as that goes. Some of the shark stuff was over the top but I don't know how many different ways you can show sharks eating people in different movies. Nothing really happened though...

This week Conversation Tree Press will be opening up pre-orders for Perdido Street Station by China Miéville. The full link goes into detail about some interesting design decisions and techniques they've used to put this printing together...

I mean, in his defense what you named landed pretty close chronologically. He-Man was 83, GI Joe 83, Transformers 84, Gobots 84. Technically that wouldn't disprove anything because they were a simultaneous product of the deregulation that allowed what he is saying. Ads for Slinky existed way...

Oh, Shovel Knight team? That sounds promising. About to wrap up Nine Sols and need something else to mess around with on the side.

Yeah, I have the same feelings. Having just watched Obsession and Backrooms back-to-back and then this last night, it did not leave a great impression. I guess it is fine but by the end I had already checked out and stopped caring, and then especially the very end with the bellboy again and the...

May as well keep up the spam. Footings were trenched and poured last week. I did an overlay with the foundation drawing just to goof around and see what lined up. Obviously, it isn't going to align perfectly. It is just a stationary drone aerial pic not a georeferenced orthomosaic. I would...

No, I just mixed my measurements display when typing it out instead of saying 30" twice. And his detail does literally say 2' - 6" but that is not what I'd say in real life bc 30" is faster. Hah, my bad for swapping in paragraph. I see what you're saying about the downspout. That's interesting...

Jeez between this and Obsession I feel spoiled. This was amazing and right up my alley. People in the thread have referenced a ton of stuff but if you've ever wanted to read a book that has as similar feel give House of Leaves a twirl. It is a frustrating read but that adds to the...

I just saa your response to this bc I guess I wasn't notified due to multi quote? Very good timing bc just today at Kroger we picked up some fat free Fairlife and already have some ON vanilla protein powder, xanthum gum, and regular vanilla pudding. Can get some fat free if we need it. Going to...

Wow... this was all sorts of crazy and great.

I don't know, finished this last night and thing the thread is a little too critical. It definitely had misses but overall, it was a MK movie with a lot of fights and fan service and ridiculousness. I'd watch an MK3 if they can make some improvements.

I don't know man, tried to find someone local and through Facebook builder groups. Unfortunately, our drafter / designer is still stuck in the stone age and his renders are as bare bones as it gets so had to look elsewhere. Did use an American bro to do our HVAC Manual J, D, and S! Yeah, of...

Had a couple of recent meetings as things progress on the lot. Most importantly final windrow meeting. When we showed up the first thing he told us was that the manufacturer rep pulled their ability to sell us the Weather Shield Classic he had previously quoted and we would need to move up to...

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29762861/ This is really, really bad. I'm a sucker for anything Dichen Lachman, but this is approaching or beyond unwatchable. Funny that Stephen Dorff is in this, like trying to get back some of that Blade experience or something. Mena Suvari looks about 67 years...

FYI, every Cradle book is free on Amazon Kindle to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the series. Definitely worth picking up just to have in your library and if you ever get around to reading them. They're all very quick reads and fun. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0753FP6SP

hah that was going to be my response too, like wtf is going on here Asylum? The guy doing it has directed two other Asylum movies; 24 hours to d-day and Planetquake. Pretty sure I saw Planetquake. This should be amazingly bad, will wait til it comes on the Roku channel.

Conversation Tree Press just announced that they'll be doing a printing of The Expanse in 2028. I'm kind of torn on this because Subterranean Press has already done a whole print run of the series. And this is yet another duplicate that will devalue the Sub Press versions and it is just goofy...

Roswell I think also. Veronica Mars had 3 seasons and a movie campaign.

Since we’ve recently had this conversation with our builder his feedback was that they will do windows first and then siding. Reason being is that you want the window in place to correctly flash the sill, header, and sides, do the sealant correctly, and then come back with trim and siding to...

I’m probably the only one following this, but just in case. Kickstarter for books 10-12 started today. Hard to believe this has been going on since 2021 I think? I’m not big on any of the extra stuff, but I like having a matching number signed set of all these. He may have released another...

For the low low price of $17,409.75 https://argentcomics.com/editions/btkj-avant-garde-edition/

Glad to hear it makes your Limp Bizkit more enjoyable.

What about the Mudi 7? I’ve been thinking about something like this for work where I don’t always have customer WiFi or hotel WiFi sucks, etc. it is a little all-in-one for my taste but seems like it would work and only be one device. https://a.co/d/08C69Q6U

We’ve been using this one for about 4 years now, maybe 5? No issues. We don’t do photo printing but I do a lot of work scanning for business receipts, signed contracts, and other random stuff. We do kids printing for stencils and coloring things. But nothing I’d say high res or high quality. The...

This reminds me of that Aeon Flux version of Alexander.

Started clearing, grubbing, grading lot today.

That’s great, definitely sounds like a fun going through them all and comparing. On a similar note Roku now has an Asylum channel which I’ve had on in the background non-stop. Some amazingly bad stuff that I’d never seen before, and I try to watch all their terrible movies.

Yeah, my mother-in-law's master bathroom mirror was glued right the fuck on. When we visited a couple years ago, she asked about taking it off and took about 2 seconds to nope out of that MIL project. I hate to be too critical of @Inque and absolutely empathize, but can't help but wonder how...

Jeez! I can’t believe there isn’t some recourse and you’re just on the hook here.

Just going along with the detective noir style made everything way more enjoyable. It was all a touch uncomfortable but believable in an almost Lynchian sort of way. Early Bosch was kind of like that, True Detective season 1 maybe. Season 1 just hit all the right notes (even outside of the big...

Is this a new Steam Deck? I’m not up on handhelds but a couple months ago was thinking about picking one up. Oh hell that’s a price jump…. Haha, no.

Well yeah, there’s always fine print 🤣

I know you’re being partially facetious but anecdotally it’s still doable for a livable 2,000 sqft house around here. Friend just bought 1800 sqft on 3 acres about 20 minutes outside of Little Rock. Think he paid $212k, single guy, first home at 40 years old. He’s already done new windows for...

Oh yeah, I'm not doing anything she doesn't suggest. It is her commission and in her best interest to tell us what to do so she gets her money too. Just saying, left to my own devices and judgement I'd do stupid stuff that would be a waste. Plus every dollar we spend here is a dollar taken away...

We had a realtor come out and look at our current home just so that we're ready to list and hopefully get under contract in alignment when the new house is finished. We're talking about listing it ~60 days out, she feels like she could negotiate 30 days at closing but any longer than that and we...

I was told this adds “character” to your work.

The stupidity of the entire stupid point being argued is she had NO IDEA The Odyssey existed. No one is claiming she should be 100% familiar with the source material. She said in her statement that she had zero idea that The Odyssey existed. None. That’s it. The at is profoundly stupid for a...

Conversation Tree Press just announced the latest in their Short Stop series: We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, by Philip K. Dick. We may better know it as the short story that inspired Total Recall. https://conversationtreepress.com/pages/we-can-remember-wholesale-philip-k-dick Hand...

Wow, sorry to hear about all that.
