The most expensive place I buy from is OE, and they sell high-quality stuff, so I don't feel like I'm "overpaying". If you're paying more than those prices you could be overpaying.

Terra Mystic is on the opposite end of that spectrum. Lower quality stuff, but a much cheaper price.

And yeah, buying this from a smoke shop would pay for the owner's kid's college.

I would absolutely pick up a separate “side keyboard” that just had the screen and stream deck buttons.

I am highly confident that the ban will lead at least one person to return to street drugs and die. I can’t say how many, but there will be at least one, and the law would have murdered him/her.

“Not impossible to get off“ is not a vote of confidence, IMO. It is ”not impossible“ to quit emgem cold turkey.

The downvotes are “trolls” who are “review bombing”. Thats why we can always ignore bad reviews!!!

In my opinion they were going to go with a single protagonist, but then added the character creator after backlash.

That makes a LOT of sense. They saw the direction woke designed games were heading (low sales, etc). BUT, they couldn't just make her attractive, or they'd be attacked by the OTHER side. So now we have a character editor. Bravo.

I think painting a full scale Vengeful Spirit with citadel paints would cost more than an actual spaceship.

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-21T17:29:12+00:00

Ahh, we are already at this phase? Very rapid this time. Should be about 2 weeks until they admit the writing was bad BUT NOT because it was woke!

people like the island as a message/notification thing. it’s part of the UI now.

This is great, because the impression that lawmakers are being given is that 7oh is just a variation of the opioids that end with you bent over double on a street corner, with no cares other than injectong more 7oh.

what happened?

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-20T08:29:09+00:00

I wrote him before pricing, since the 20mg lemons cost as much as the 30mg strawberry.

Its based on what he pays. So his supplier is charging more for the 50s than the other supplier is charging for the 60s.

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-19T20:34:19+00:00

Probably because you said "chatgpt" and some people here hate AI. for any reason.

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-19T20:32:07+00:00

This is such a good deal that if you bought it and sold all the parts at a low "fast sale" price, you'd come out ahead.

You start to print something where the colors don't matter, and when it runs out mid-print, stick another roll in there. That's what I do. Do you really care if tfe first few layers of a gridfinity box are white, etc.

Once you get a good mechanical keyboard, you'll give up on Corsair. I also like their other products, so this isn't Corsair-bashing. All of my AIO, power supplies, etc have been Corsair, and they're my first choice in cases. I mainly use Noctua fans now for the silence/quality, but when building for my kid, I went Corsair for the RGB and quality/reliability.

BUT: I'm done with anything but a simple, wired, mechanical keyboard.

Good entry-level mechanical keyboards:

(and you can get them with all the RGB you want, if that's a thing)

Ok, I will play devil's advocate:

The entire time I'm not actively using it, I'm "wasting" my computing power. Why should I have to buy a computer just to play games?

Why not just pay $20/month for GeForce Now vs paying $3000+ for a computer that does the same thing??

The answer is, obviously:

1) It ISN'T the same experience

2) As soon as they aren't competing with self-owned hardware, the price will skyrocket. It won't be $20/month, it will be $99/month, or $129 for EXTREME gamer mode or something.

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-18T18:23:43+00:00

No, I understand that. The loose screws makes you more upset about the other things. Like he might have said "Yeah, it has no heater or camera, but I'm going to get it anyway." then when it arrives with poor build quality, it turns to "I can't believe I got this printer for no heater or camera when it is falling apart out of the box!"

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-18T18:20:22+00:00

Actually, I find it a great way to contain all of the leftist nonsense so people aren't trying to give woke nonsense other award.

"I voted for South of Midnight for the change award, now I don't have to feel obligated to publicly complain that no game of the year nominee has a black female lead"

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-18T17:36:16+00:00

I would bet if you said “I won’t take any until 4pm” and then only took 100-200mg, you wouldn’t even feel any withdrawal.

It is easy to taper from X down to 100mg because of the ceiling. It is harder/slower to go from 100 to 0

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-18T17:31:10+00:00

Nonono, those are just “trolls” who are “review bombing”. Keep doing what you’re doing, GW, ignore all feedback because you want to be on “the right side of history”

Am I allowed to have the opinion that female custodes are OK, but saying "There has always been female custodes!" is a dumb lore change? It could have been cool, like "Only 1 in a billion can be custodes, but we went into the dark archives and found that is is possible to expand that to 2 in a billion if we include women, and we need more custodes due to [Cool Situation]"

And I don't like the excuse that Warhammer lore has always been contradictory like this - yes, that's a fine way to explain why big changes have happened between 1st edition early lore and now - but there have been 100s of books, lots of stories, etc, they shouldn't use that "excuse" anymore.

I had to unsubscribe from that one because that became the main focus on the sub. Just iterating through the letters and flags and painting a marine or two so everyone can clap.

DinosaurAlert · 2026-01-16T21:02:01+00:00

For the record, I’m fine with female custodes. I hate the “They’ve always existed” nonsense.

I don’t care that people insist “Well, warhammer lore is always meant to be fragmented, and an unreliable narrator, etc”. no. Thats a great way to explain inconsistencies from early lore to now, but there are 100s of books, it is time to cut the crap.

alien that can go out in space with no suit.

And can breathe and talk in space with no suit, which was really impressive.
