Cmon Cad, we just wiped out 4 whole days of gains over two days! The end is nigh.

Glad I'm not the only one bothered by that. They load up the things with like 200 pounds of rocks each and then...they float. The acting is also starting to get terrible. Victor's dad weeping at the end of the episode before this, from a picture drawn by an 8 year old, was ridiculous. The nurse...

Nah, fuck that. Every sound engineer for the last decade is an asshole, and has made the movie experience worse. There are a multitude of these videos you can watch.

We're not talking about it because nothing substantial has actually been released. You can only get people so worked up about vague statements before they tune out.

That's disappointing. I probably put this one on my watch list because of your first post about it. And we finally watched the first episode last night and it was great. Laughed a lot. I'm not really into horror, but it's fine if that's the vibe they wanted. But if the humor is gone, that'll be...

I've said it many times over the years, too, but people really want to overcomplicate it. "Throwing it into an index sounds too easy, there's got to be more fiddling I can do that makes it successful." Whether that's day trading or trusting a financial advisor. Everyone thinks surely there's...

Market trades within 5% of an ATH something like 85-90% of the time. It's why time in the market beats timing the market. Human nature is risk averse and the market gives no shits. As far as company stock, I'm not a fan. Because you already have a ton at stake in your company since your entire...

Uh, inflation is always compounding. What am I missing here? Also, asset owners have always been the only winners.

When this comes out, we'll have a group of posters who go see it anyway because "I've got nothing better to see," and they'll say it sucks and then wonder why this slop keeps getting made. Happens every time.

My favorite part is they detained it, gave it a medical exam, and then just released it. "Alien" my ass.

That's not fair. These people are professionals at ruining things. They've got decades of experience. Of course you can't compete with that.

I think most of us still cling to the idea of a "forever" game. One that we can play for years and years. Unfortunately the reality is within a few months 95% of people will drop any game because they've all got flaws, and as said a million times in this thread, it's not the late 90's or early...

That's pretty wild. Of all the games I've played in my steam library, it's pretty rare to even *want* to play a lot of them for 100 hours. The ones I get multiple hundreds of hours on are incredibly rare (like maybe 5 games total over two decades?) and a lot of that is from doing multiple...

That's...quite the month.

Unless it's super old and they did something weird, chances are it's just a piece of crappy plywood that sits on top of the cabinets, which the countertop is then attached to. Not sure what they did 50+ years ago, but hopefully your kitchen isn't that old.

Child actors are almost always just grating. The ones who can pull it off, but also have decent writers who can write children, is incredibly rare. Speaking of "I won't talk about it," I swear there was one or two other characters who did it, again, this past episode. It's basically an every...

The crazy part is, you look at THJ and the amount of money it was apparently bringing in, and it does seem like there's a market for...something. Hell, if these devs were smart, they could've pivoted to just copying that. They're not bound by the Daybreak/Everquest IP shit, and could've just...

I mean, Victor pissed himself. That was something?

Not going to watch this video, but I made a post a few weeks ago just throwing out a hypothetical similar to that. That the Garden of Eden could exist in an alternate plane, and the "knowledge of good and evil" is essentially conscious thought. They were exiled into the physical world we know...

I got bored way faster than most of you. 21 hours in, I think I haven't picked it back up in a week.

My guess is they're at a point where money doesn't matter anymore and this is purely an aesthetic choice. As far as granite though, while we've had them in the last two houses, I don't really love it. I mean, it looks decent, but it's still kind of a pain in the ass to baby it. I've all but...

Guess I missed that. Should've given her a retarded dyke mullet if they wanted me to notice a chick's hair being different. That's way too subtle for me. Know your audience, people.

I probably should've just waited to watch once the season was over. This type of show is way too frustrating to watch week to week. Just little things like the cop who, despite finally putting on regular clothes, still wears a fucking belt with a radio on it that does nothing, or the people just...

It's pretty funny to consider they would've been right around the corner from EA. But it's definitely not a red flag or anything that they're completely redesigning the game suddenly.

Mobs leashing seems like a massive change. Basically flying in the face of the "super punishing old school mechanics" so many of the diehards seem to want.

It's both an age of the player phenomenon, as well as the time period the game came out. You'll never recapture 1999 era internet where everyone wasn't so connected like they are now. Several people have mentioned it over the years in this thread, but you're talking peak instant messaging era...

That doesn't sound like a good omen for the movie. Basically they don't think it holds up on its own, with just phase whatever the fuck Marvel bullshit behind it, so we're going to go back 7 years to the last thing that was interesting to support it. I don't think most movie fans will...

And here I figured she was acting like an asshole. Turns out that's just her personality. Her "everyone is raping little girls" and "don't trust any men" schtick is so obnoxious. Anyway, I meant to say it in my last post, but the conclusion to season 2 just felt like kind of a letdown. It was...

Honestly, the whole character was weird. They basically made him an incel.

Yeah, made me want to just play kick/hat/snare for a week and just see what happens.

Yeah, it's got some issues, and the woke stuff keeps creeping in, but it's one of the best dramas of the last few years by a long shot.

Well shit, it's unfortunate Tom Cruise won't be involved thi...oh wait.

Right, but I don't liquidate my entire portfolio when we need cash to live off. I do like $5-10k at a time. So it's an extra couple hundred dollars. Not nothing, but over the long term also insignificant. It's why I always say, even after you retire you still need to stay in equities. If you've...

The other day when the market broke even on the year, I asked my wife if we needed more money yet. She said we still had a month or two. I considered liquidating some, but boy am I glad I waited (not that 2-3% is a huge difference).

Appreciate it. Will have to look into the land equity part as I've never seen that. It makes sense, just something never seen mentioned on construction loans. I guess maybe cause most people don't own the land they're building on?

Probably why Abiotic Factor felt so refreshing. Check it out if you hadn't. Probably still on Game Pass if you've got that.

Dang, that seemed to come out of nowhere. So if you don't mind me asking, what's the summary? $850k or so at 6.5%? Assuming a construction loan? 1 year? I'm assuming everything as far as blueprints had to be finalized?

Many people have said it at this point, but even if he did finish this next book, who cares anymore? The window of me giving a fuck about these books passed about a decade ago.

Plenty of real people are pieces of shit.
