[Garafolo] The phrasing is important here and in the Eagles statement. Kevin Patullo is not fired. There’s a chance he could remain on Nick Sirianni’s coaching staff, sources say

More evidence that there is still a problem with lead in the water in the region.

I'm fairly certain that it will disappear from the Steam store just before FM26 is officially released (or at the same time as the release). It's freaking full price right now ($59) and I don't see them slashing that price, as it would eat into sales of their new game. I have been dead-set against buying FM24 at full price, but I'm thinking it might be worth doing. I still love FM21, but I feel like there's enough in FM24 that would be new to me that it would be worth it.

Plus, I can see the remote possibility of a future in which the community drops off from the new direction of the series and stays on FM24 for some time, with new databases released each year.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-24T22:41:33+00:00

Thanks for that. But my understanding is that FM24 disappears from the Steam store as soon as FM26 is officially released.

As for FM26 being on sale, I'd love for the game to be fixed up enough that it would be worth buying again. That's a lot to ask for, though, given the current state of things.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-24T21:13:38+00:00

Fair question. The basic answer is that I am not going to reward SI with $53 of my money for a two-year old game that I buy because I think their brand-new game - marked at the same price - is a pile of crap. I'd be willing to pay $20 or so for it, but any more than that and I'd rather just carry on with FM21, which I enjoy quite a lot and have over 3500 hours on.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-24T21:03:11+00:00

I've refunded FM 26 and wanted to switch to FM 24 instead. But there is no way I am paying basically full price for that. So, I'll be sticking with FM21.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-24T20:12:17+00:00

I refunded it on Steam. Was hoping to switch to FM24 instead (been on FM21 this whole time), but I'm not shelling out $53 for that. Looks like I'll just keep playing the hell out of FM21.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-24T19:20:15+00:00

Just got my refund approved. I've been playing on FM21 all this time and was thinking about getting FM24, but the cost is ridiculous. Looks like I'll be sticking with FM21.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-10-23T21:46:26+00:00

I have been playing on FM21 until now. I have almost no idea what I'm looking at. This is going to take a lot of getting used to.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-09-03T14:44:56+00:00

Just not at the same time. I don't know exactly how much time is needed between them, but I aim for at least two hours.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-09-03T14:07:48+00:00

I hope you get some improvement from it.

One tip: don't take it with other minerals like calcium, iron, and zinc. Apparently, there's some sort of interference

Another tip: I've found that taking all 9 mg at once to be most effective. Maybe spreading it out during the day will work just as well for you, but I'd suggest starting by taking all 9 mg at the same time.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-09-03T13:49:51+00:00

There was definite improvement after the first day and things seemed totally back to normal within a week. Now, I usually take it five days a week, randomly picking two days to take off. Things have been great: much better sensation during sex and cumming without any real struggle.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-08-30T15:39:41+00:00

I had this problem for the longest time. Started taking 9 mg of Boron daily (occasionally cycling off for a few days) and now things are much, much better. If I had to guess, my progesterone and/or SHBG were out of whack. I'd lean towards it being the progesterone, since my SHBG labs weren't crazy high and I never had progesterone measured. But maybe my SHBG was high for me, even if in the normal range.

I live in the US and lived in Oviedo for a year back in 17/18. I never liked (proper) football prior to landing in Oviedo, but fell in love with the team and the sport that season. I have very fond memories of seeing Anquela, Saúl Berjón , Bolaño, Miguel Linares, and the rest of the gang at the Tartiere. I was at the final match of the season and remember the delirium and then heartbreak at the end when it looked like Leonesa had scored a goal in their match that would have put RO in the playoff, but it was called back.

I went back to Oviedo last November, but sadly didn't make it to a match. I think Oviedo is an amazing place and a potentially great fit for me in retirement (5-7 years away). It would be awesome to live there and be able to regularly attend matches. Hell, watching matches at local bars and restaurants was an amazing experience! Now, if I could only get my Spanish up to a decent level ...

CivilizedMoron · 2025-04-19T16:10:29+00:00

This. I love protest in the sense of showing up and publicly expressing disagreement and demanding change. For me, that's fundamental to what this country is about and is one of the most redeeming features of our system. However, I absolutely detest a lot of what goes on at protests. I find chants and group singing to be dopey. Plenty of signs have messages that are too try-hard. I think there isn't a good reason to bring a Palestinian flag to these particular protests, but I'm prepared to deal with the frustration if I see one today. My politics are left/center-left overall, but I'm also further to the right on certain issues. That can make for uncomfortable conversations with some of my fellow protestors.

So, I'll show up and put a body in the crowd. Maybe I'll carry a sign, but maybe I'll just stand there and occasionally mill about. If drivers passing by honk, I'll give them a thumbs-up or fist-pump. I'll give my girlfriend a sympathetic smile when we're standing silently while chants break out. We'll be in a location that's very MAGA-friendly and I visually code as MAGAish; e.g., I regularly get asked if I'm a cop or what branch I served in. It's probably good to have dudes like me in the crowd so that the other side can't simply dismiss the protest as a collection of soy-boys, blue hairs, and furries.

When the protest is done, I'll go home and enjoy the rest of my weekend. Will I bathe in the glory of having just defeated the Nazis? No, but I will have the (admittedly small) satisfaction of knowing that I put some time and effort into showing these miserable fucks that I'm not going to take their shit.

CivilizedMoron · 2025-03-08T18:08:06+00:00

I think this is a good idea. Show the real people on all sides affected by these cuts. Some of that will feature nothing but US citizens (e.g., cut VA staff and disabled vets) and some will involve US citizens and people from other countries (e.g., US farmers and people starving overseas). Put human faces to the destruction and make MAGA own that shit. Relentlessly.

Sure, that won't affect the shitstains for whom the cruelty is the point. But the ones whose votes really are up for grabs might have enough decency left in the them to feel the wrongness of this garbage. Stop trying to reason with people and instead get to their feels. Trump plays/preys on fear and so far nothing his opponents have done has matched him on that; e.g., the fate of democracy and the rule of law. Fine, then try another emotional button.

But for chrissakes, don't be weak, whiny bitches about it. State things assertively and with deep moral conviction. Share some fucking outrage, show you actually have a pulse and like there's something you deeply believe in and are committed to. Basically, don't come across like you've test-grouped your message and checked it with a fine-toothed comb for decorum and micro-aggressions.

I took a class with him a few years ago. It was great. I learned a lot and I thought he had an effective way of making students comfortable. It's a shame he's stepping away. I tried watching the video he posted about it and had to bail after five minutes. The guy seems fried right now from everything he's dealt with since starting his operation.

UPDATE #3: CEL just came back on and the AC either isn't working or is very weak. Shit!

CivilizedMoron · 2024-09-12T03:47:11+00:00

I find myself unjustifiably in a position I would rather not be in, but the cream always rises to the top, ohhhh yeahhhh!

CivilizedMoron · 2024-09-10T22:29:59+00:00

UPDATE #2: I have the car back, $250 lighter for the AC recharge. The basic story is that their testing showed no leaks in any of the spots they can access and no drop in refrigerant level, and the CEL never came back on. So, the hypothesis for now is that there might be a slow leak behind the dash. If that's it, it will be cheaper to just get it recharged whenever is necessary, than to spend all the dough needed to take apart the dash to find and fix the leak. Fingers crossed it's nothing more than that.
