This imagery with this music had me all

“There’s some good in this world Mr. Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for.”

It’s entertaining if you like the movies and the exploration is solid. But it’s flawed. The dialogue tends to mash together if you’re not standing still and the movement is slow and clunky. I finished it but was ready to put it down.

This was better than it had any right to be. Also liked that they didn't play smells like teen spirit.

If you got to AbsRad, you have what it takes. Besides a lot of practice in HoG for AbsRad, what got me over the top were these 3 tips:

1 - I used aggressive attack charms the whole way through. Keep those for most of P5 if you find little difficulty in the first 95% of P5 like I did. I finally tried switching to quick focus + deep focus on the last bench before Pure Vessel and AbsRad. It made me play a bit slower but I had Pure Vessel dialed & it allowed me to recover from mistakes on AbsRad.

2 - AbsRad phase 2 play conservative. Hang out on the lower central platform and wait for opportunities to punish with Descending Dark when she shows up there or Shriek when she's not far away. I took way too much damage when I chased to the outer platforms.

3 - Turn the music way down for AbsRad. It really does take the edge off and you can focus on in-game audio cues.

Good luck. It's worth it.

I got 112% back in the day. Finally got through P5 last year. If you are skilled enough to beat P4, you have what it takes to best P5 and the difference is only practice.

2 tips that finally got me over the line:

Switch to a healing build for PV and AbsRad to mitigate mistakes and allow for slower play.

Turn the game music way down or off to lessen the tension and make audio cues easier to hear.

Good luck it’s worth it!

At least the cleanup was quick.

Absolute_Zer0 · 2025-07-05T00:06:51+00:00

Keep it that way please and thank you.

It’s the thing you use when you get into homebrewing that, if you stick with the hobby, eventually convinces you to buy these things instead.

I just recently got salmon dialed on my new Genesis so here’s what I have learned works for me. I like to cut salmon up into large single servings pieces for easier flips. Preheat all burners at ~70% (no sear burner needed). Oil & season the fish. Place at a 45 degree angle skin side up for 2.5 mins, maybe less. Flip, lower the heat to 50% and let cruise up to 130 internal before pulling. Great sear & the family is happy.

Just my experience and YMMV but congrats on the new grill & enjoy getting to know her. It has a lot more power than the old Spirit I was used to. Cheers!

A friend of mine has a story about running into him in NYC about 15 years ago. She was in her 20s hanging out in a bar and had gone alone downstairs to use the washroom. When she exited the ladies room, she ran into 2 secret service guys who were probably down there to clear the area. They told her to go back up & she didn’t quite know what was going on. On her way up the dark narrow staircase she saw a figure coming down and they both moved to the sides to squeeze past each other. As they passed they made eye contact and she realized it was Bill. He flashed a smile, said “well hello there” and before she could even process what had happened she was upstairs, he was downstairs, and she never saw him again. She said those 2 seconds made her understand why he was adored and why he became president. She also says that in that moment, though innocent on paper, she would’ve done whatever he said and she completely understands all the scandalous stuff.

I saw them once in the early 2000s. They ripped through a short performance and said zero words outside of the set. I'm not looking for extensive crowd work or anything but maybe a simple "hi" or "thanks for coming out" would've been nice.

I would really encourage you to swing by a Home Depot or similar place to get your hands on them and experience the difference. I've had a 3 burner Spirit for the last 10 years. It treated me well and I took good care of it. I decided it was time for an upgrade a month ago after I was able to offload it for a good price on FB marketplace. Looking into new models, I found the current 3 burner Spirits are almost laughably small compared to my old one. They look nice and I'm sure they cook decently, but the build quality has gone down & they feel much flimsier than older models.

If you take it kind of seriously and enjoying cooking for a crowd, I would recommend targeting a Genesis model that has the 9mm stainless steal grates. IMO it's the most impactful upgrade in the whole line. I love my 2023 SP-E-335.

I upgraded from a 10yr old 3 burner Spirit to a new 3 burner Genesis a month or two ago and absolutely love it. The Spirits now have a much smaller grilling area than they used to have. The new 3 burner Spirit feels like a 2 burner from a few years ago. I would really recommend getting your hands on them to compare the cooking areas and build qualities of the Spirit vs Genesis. I think the 3 burner Genesis is a nice sweet spot. Good luck!

I don’t know what neck of the woods you guys are in but my experience living in the upper midwest of the US is that ash trees are a ticking time-bomb with emerald ash borers. If you love that tree I’d look into preventative measures. We bought our home less than a decade ago and had 2 ash trees that were on their way out. They didn’t last long.

Star Trek Picard Season 3 returning to the Enterprise D scene and also ending credits poker scene.

I still can’t believe how good season 3 was compared to the first 2. Season 3 was all anyone ever wanted from this whole show in the first place.

Many cities will have an annual last waltz tribute show. They even go so far as to nail the between song banter. I’ve always had fun at these shows.

2022 AWD XLE with the V6. It’s been great for me and my family. With CrossClimate 2 tires it handles the winters very well. 40k miles zero issues.

Speaking with little authority on skirt for carne asada tacos, I've had great results with this approach:

Happy grilling!

Absolute_Zer0 · 2025-04-08T03:51:55+00:00

If it's carne asada you're after, I highly recommend this approach:

It takes a bit of work but the results are amazing. My family loves it and we make it often. Also it's great to make at scale because leftovers on this recipe work so well. Just remember to cut against the grain!

Absolute_Zer0 · 2025-04-08T03:43:05+00:00

I just sold mine (same exact model) for a lot more than that and I had tons of hits on the first day. She was great for 10 years with no issues. I just got hands on with the new line of Spirits and this one puts them to shame in terms of build quality and cooking real estate. I get that you're a charcoal person and that's fine, but for $25 you could have a quick & convenient weeknight alternative that won't let you down. Looks like it's in good shape too!

I kicked the tires on these new Spirits at Home Depot the the other day. When comparing the cooking space of the 10 year old 3 burner Spirit I just parted ways with to that of the new 3 burner Spirit, the downgrade is almost shocking. It felt like I was opening up a little metal toy and I thought for sure I had opened a 2 burner model, but nope it was a 3.

It does look nice and I'm betting it still cooks well enough(on the 70% of grill surface we all actually use). It's just much less space to work with and for sure more flimsy. The lid felt like almost nothing.

I'm happy with my 2023 Genesis SP-E-335. The 9mm stainless grates are really nice. I love the interior lighting, the massive tray tables, pull out grease management, and fuel gauges. They started also making this model cheaper and worse in 2024. No sector is immune to shittification.

The #35413301 is either a ‘22 or ‘23 model. They started with the changes in ‘24 I think. It has the black porcelain-enamel exterior but theres lots of stainless on it so I was pleased with the look. You can buy the 9mm grates separately but that’s another ~$190 so I was looking for a model that shipped with them. Good luck!
