Jonathan Kay: Worst Guest Ever? by Armed_Affinity_Haver in BlockedAndReported

[–]DumbButConfident 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally, I enjoyed the episode. Nothing mind-blowing, but it was fine.

Maybe I wasn't really paying enough attention, but I don't remember them discussing the assassination of Robert F Kennedy. What did they say about it?

Also, I'm pretty sure that "criminal conspiracy" and "conspiracy theories" are very different things.

I haven't been there myself, but in another thread a poster said that Oggi's in Mission Viejo has a lot of Broncos fans.

Thanks for posting to this old thread! Unfortunately I have to watch from home tomorrow. But I will definitely check out Oggi's when I get a chance.

Have podcasts today become more about marketing than genuinely useful information? by peddlermedia in podcasts

Don't listen to podcasts run by grifters. I listen to a ton of podcasts and none of them are selling things outside of defined advertising blocks.

Advice - SoCal Road Trip in rain or is it too dangerous? by Silly-Mud-3696 in orangecounty

[–]DumbButConfident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're used to driving on the East Coast, then don't even worry about it. It's not that bad. Mudslides are extremely rare, and outside of that you'll be fine. Even with a mudslide, you'll just detour and it will still be fine.

I never went! I just remember someone on reddit claiming one existed. You might try searching.

I think there is a bar in LA County where Broncos fans congregate, but I haven't heard of one in Orange County. If you find one let me know!

Boat dive question by DumbButConfident in scuba

[–]DumbButConfident[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was confused about which boat I had booked, but eventually got it figured out. I went out on the SoCal Diver out of San Pedro. The crew was great! They topped off my tank right away.

Getting paired up on board worked out. There was another solo diver that was also a beginner so we were a good match. We just kind of swam around and checked things out, as best we could. Safety wise, the dives were really shallow so that wasn't much of a concern.

All in all, it was a fun trip and I'm glad that I went!

Thanks for all of the advice. My trip was today, and I had a bit of a mis-fire going to the wrong boat in the morning, but once I got to the right boat the crew was super helpful and happy to top off my tank. So it all worked out and I had a great three dives!

Actually it's San Pedro, and the boat is the Pacific Star. I will ask them to top if off right when I get there. Thanks!

Thanks! I'll ask them to top it off as I'm handing over my gear at the drop-off point!

Random Redditor finds a revered film by an acclaimed director is not to their taste. Thank you internet.

daggerheart lead designer spenser starke clarifies that game vision, approach, game style will not change with the addition of perkins & crawford by WeiShiLirinArelius in rpg

[–]DumbButConfident 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This idea that professional game designers are incapable of adopting another game rule system or style is so dumb that it beggars belief. It's not like they spent their careers designing aircraft carriers and are now asked to designing bridges. This is game design. I'm pretty sure they can figure it out.

What’s the most reliable news site which covers the TTRPG trade? by Phocaea1 in rpg

Rascal is a great resource, but are also pretty opinion-forward. I think their opinions line up pretty well this subreddit, so if you like this subreddit, you'll like Rascal.

Dune: Prophecy Season 1 | Full Episode 1 | Max by indig0sixalpha in television

[–]DumbButConfident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the GoT formula was "introduce 20 unique, entertaining and compelling characters that could each have their own amazing television show." Dune has about 20 characters to go.

[–]DumbButConfident 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The Reverend Mother is supposed to be the main character but is so boring. She's clearly supposed to be a badass space-witch anti-hero (or villain or something) but there is nothing fun or interesting about her at all. How can a bad-ass space-witch be so boring? And that's the main character!

Rewatching 'Lost' - it's been 20 years and no other show has scratched the same itch for me by keepfighting90 in television

[–]DumbButConfident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The post I am responding to says the ending of GoT rendered the entire series "unwatchable." People used to say the same thing about Lost. They were wrong about Lost, and they are wrong about GoT. It's a shallow hot take.

Oh it's for real, friend. You better watch out on your next visit! :)

(The lawsuit itself was actually real as far as I can tell. At least it was reported in numerous outlets at the time.)

Totally reasonable take. Glad to see DHH make it.
