    I watched the Chinese version of the show and they spend over double the amount of time getting to about the same stopping point as the Netflix show. So they go into more details of both the aliens and the humans helping them. It sort of helps to smooth over the rough edges and changes that the...

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    Meters are going to be a bit funky just by the nature of SoD, but they don't show warriors in a bad place for PvE? Shaman tanks doing more DPS than rogues (a pure dps class!!) and melee hunters being 4th in a vanilla based game is a bit funny though.

    I don't think/know if they have said specifically that it will be called Enhanced Edition, but they are certainly working on all the post release stuff they promised:

    On a related note: I recently switched to Bing for recipe searches and it seems to do a bit better with not pushing the same small group of shitty websites.

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    IGN interview with Sven of Larian about the Gaming industry, BG3, and game development. Many more questions in the interview, but these were the most interesting two I found. While the second question is more in line with this thread, putting the BG3 question first, since that's the order of the...

    They have been expanding Central Market, so you have a lot more to visit to make the tour now. South Lake has had one for probably ~10 years, Plano has one, Dallas actually has three, and Austin has a second one.

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    AFAIK, HEB is using Wal-Mart's logistics strategy when it comes to expansion, which means they build a warehouses first then expand around that (I think the warehouse and store need to be within a X hour drive for a semi). They can only build warehouses so fast while not borrowing too much money...

    Well, a place called Hong Kong Market Place has 3,700 reviews on google and it's on the way to the airport, so I would think it might be something to check out: https://maps.app.goo.gl/x4qxXDBYkQYUb7Ep9 Edit: Well, it's a little out of the way but 3.7k reviews, yo. If I was going to make a...

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    Last time I was in town, the Ft. Worth one was the one I looked at going too, but it looked rather small. That lead me to looked up more info about Trader Joe's in particular and there were many comments about it having it's own stuff that people go there for but not near the selection of a...

    Well Pink Floyd: Live At Pompeii was the best musical I have ever seen then. Also, Woodstock should be on a bunch of top 10 lists as one of the best musicals of all time, if you look it up. I mean, who cant instantly recognize this as a musical to rival Phantom of the Opera (I would certainly...

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    We don't have very many Trader Joe's (only Dallas proper has more than one in it's city limits I think), the closest is over an hour away and timewise wouldn't be much different than just going to an Asian market (I would assume the Asian market would be better, but maybe not).

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    To put it another way, the songs in Walk the Line were made far before the movie and they are not singing the events of his life nor the events of the movie. Yes, the interactions they set up for the movie, during the songs between Cash and Carter add depth, but you would not need to rewrite the...

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    Thanks for the recommendations. I have the option of HEB (best store in Texas) and Wal-Mart (trashiest store in the country). It's kinda funny, and a sign we don't have many Asians living out in this part of Texas (?), as HEB has 18 items when searching for "dumplings", half of which are not...

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    For the most part "musical" movies are also on stage/Broadway productions, so that's an easy place to start, but that's not exactly it and there is more too it. Wikipeadia has Tommy, The Wall, and The Blues Brothers as musicals, whereas Walk The Line and The Doors are both biographical films...

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    I wouldn't consider Walk the Line or The Doors to be musicals, they are movies about music. As in, people don't just burst out in song mid plotline, singing their "dialog" instead of saying it.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The 2024 Z51 page does specify a different gear ratio for the package and it mentions an Electronic controlled LSD (eLSD). So that can certainly make it a bit confusing when just reading over it. GM's website has all the C8 LT1 stats listed, it's just hidden behind the menus (the "mechanical"...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    All C6, C7, and C8 trims should have limited slip differentials. The Z51/Zo6/ZR1 might have different ratios, depending on the package or year. Performance wise was your previous Jag a proper track car? All I really know about them is that they look good, but so does the Challenger, Mustang...

    There is no fear just never think about them and again, I don't eat at restaurants (usually). Are there a particular recipe names I should look at or just "Asian dumplings" recipe?

    Depends on how long you plan to hold it. Physical gold certainly seems like a secure investment, but you need to hold it for a while to make it worth the trouble of buying/selling/shipping. I trust paper gold less than I trust Bitcoin.

    I was being funny, in that, all that I saw were those 5 things, because we never really ate Chinese food. I have lived in many places, but for the first half of my life I lived in small all-white towns. No Asians to make Asian food there. Then I spent a few years in a medium city, where there...

    Not really explaining them, no. Just saying stuff like "going to go get some dumplings, brb" and "damn these dumplings are great"... multiple times a month. If it was during a 40m raid break there was a lot of chatter and that kinda stuff goes in passing, like everyone just assumes that everyone...

    The Acolyte

    *shrug* I liked all the factory prison episodes as some nice world building on how the empire worked, not to mention how it actually tied into the story line and changing Cassian into what he was/is in Rogue 1. Think I have watched the season 3 times now w/o fast forwarding any of it. On the...

    Cheap Meals: Eating on a budget.

    Dumplings were dumplings in my mind. I had never heard of them before the dudes in my guild were raving about how good they were and they seemed to eat them all the time. So that's the recipe I ended up on sometime between 2007 and 2010. I don't exactly remember how I picked that one. My family...

    I read that there is a Chinese made show out there. Kinda curious to give it a watch. Hopefully it's like the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo movie verses the Swedish mini-series, where the mini-series was far superior. Edit: The series from China: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20242042/

    Years of playing MMOs had me guilded/grouped with a lot of various Asian type people (1st to 10th gen from China, Vietnam, Korea, Japan). So after a decade+ of hearing about how good "dumplings" were, I finally looked up a recipe and found this: I was rather dubious of them and it took me a...

    No idea of C8 prices, but Corvette Forums is a good place to research them. Of course some/many people are going to be a bit over priced, but you can get a much better idea of what private sales are going for. Also, fuck dealers. It takes me months to get a good handle on vehicle prices and...

    I mucked about with the IPTV free side for a short time and didn't think my parents could handle it (I didn't play around with the top guide app though), so no idea if this works, but you could see if some of the IPTV guide apps work with Kodi. Some of them may be able to be linked on a tablet...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Corvette sales has it's ups and downs, but the average is at least half to a quarter of what Mustang/Camaro put out until recently and that's because the Mustang and Camaro production has fallen off a cliff over the last few years. I don't see why the fairly steady Vette production would change...

    I don't see Lady Gaga pulling off a Willy Wonka over the top "serious" movie or South Park all jokes movie. I can think of four musicals I like: Paint Your Wagon, South Park, Willy Wonka, and Jesus Christ Superstar. Half of those are because I watched them as a kid and none of them have shitty...

    NWN1 has aged the worst out of any old game I have ever tried to replay. It's not like the stories are that connected, so there is no need to play NWN at all to jump into NWN2. Likewise, Mask of the Betrayer has some player character bonuses/carry over for doing the NWN2 campaign, but, from what...

    As a non-book reader, I didn't find it bad, but I had low expectations going in since it's on Netflix, along with reading some posts here, plus the IMDB reviews about wokeness and a kinda funny complaint about smoking. I wouldn't be too surprised if they didn't spoil the ending with heavy...
