    Things have really changed over the years. First pics I took with a telescope were an 8" reflector telescope on a mount with a drive, but not guiding or go to.

    I'm working on respecing Gale now so I'll see how it goes. It's probably well known but I stumble around and rarely look up stuff. The chair in act 2 that you sit to remove the tadpole then breaksdown gives you a -2 constitution buff that is permanent. I just realised it. Putting in a tadpole...

    If you want a reality check watch a video of those speed runs on youtube of someone finishing an honor mode run in less than 30 minutes with 2 companions. Jump jump jump is what 90% of it looked like.

    Yeah it was, I didn't need the loot. I was just racking up some exp and the Dark Amathyst. It's an easy and quick kill but the camera inside is not the best.

    Act 1 seemed longer if you went through the underdark and also went through the mountain pass and did all that. If went and did just one it was a lot shorter. Act 2 was a short walk through the shadowlands and then just mostly all in the towers. The gauntlet was the biggest time sink in act 2 to...

    I left high school and got a GED. I went to a directional state school the next semester. I was shocked you had to take test after test to find out if you needed remedial math, english, science, or whatever before you even started classes. This was everyone and a lot needed it.

    I keep seeing that airlines make a large part of their income now from credit card tie ins and often referred to as credit card companies now instead of airlines. Now that credit cards are laying off I would be concerned that's going to impact the airlines as well.

    Giant boom and then the power was out. Then it flipped on and off a number of times. I heard the whole house generator crank up and the power stayed on so the genereator shut down.
