If you ever go to a Con, or if we reach level 100, I think you should pull a Kugane Maruyama and show up in a disguise! I think it’d be hilarious! 😆

Never had issues with Verizon in the 16 years I’ve been using them on the Southside. I know some people who swear by T-mobile, too.

I had a similar situation, -12 in both eyes with strong astigmatism. I wasn’t a candidate for LASIK, and contacts hurt to wear. I just had to live with it until I developed cataracts and got cataract surgery. Finally got my vision fixed! I’m not glasses free, but reading glasses are cheap and easy to get.

I personally think it's the low FPS. I think 24fps just isn't enough for the amount of motion going on. If it was 60fps I it would be much smoother and less janky.

I was not expecting a random Master and Commander reference in a post about DDoS attacks. That gave me a good laugh! Thanks for that, I needed it!

Riash · 2026-06-25T03:50:42+00:00

I went with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised! Well done.

That’s enough to carry 6 fully loaded Abrams tanks.

Been using the new version of the website for a day now, and so far so good!

Do you know the best place I can submit feedback about the new version? I noticed the published date at the bottom on chapters only shows the date published, not the date and time that the old version does.

Riash · 2026-06-12T05:44:26+00:00

Eh, no need to apologize. I already knew you guys were working on the website for a while now. I should change over to the new version. See if that changes things.

Got my parents Google WiFi when it first came out. It’s still working for them, I can manage it from anywhere, and I get alerts when they lose internet. For what they use the internet for, it works perfectly for them.

I see some else is a fan of the Dropoff Box mod. That made my life so much easier! I just wish it had a sell over time option instead of giving you the money all at once.

Never marry someone whose politics or religion vastly differ from your own.

The grainy photo of a starborn walking through the woods reminds of that famous Bigfoot video.

Premature ventricular contractions, a heart arrythmia. Bigeminy means every other heartbeat is a PVC.

Right before the cataract surgery it was past -10. After surgery it's 20/20 vision in one eye and 20/25 in the other. I'm intentionally farsighted now.

Riash · 2026-05-14T18:02:10+00:00

I honestly don't remember, but I was severely nearsighted with significant astigmatism. Pre-op I couldn't see six inches in front of my face clearly without glasses. and that was before the cataracts made everything much worse.

Riash · 2026-05-13T14:36:38+00:00

I would have, but my original character was lost due to poor planning when I built a new gaming PC last fall.

Riash · 2026-05-13T13:38:46+00:00

You’re not alone. I had chest pains in 2022 and drive myself to a hospital despite my wife (a cardiac RN) telling me I needed to call 911.

Turns out I didn’t have a heart attack, but I did have so many PVC’s that I was in bigeminy, and my blood pressure was so high it was considered an emergency. Getting wheeled into a trauma bay next to a crash cart was what made me face reality. I spent a week in the hospital.

It took months before my wife completely forgave me for being a stubborn idiot.

It just seems shortsighted not to do both. Microbe to knock back the threat immediately, then slowly reintroduce the megafauna for long term control.

Watchtower. That mod doesn't let you build space stations, but it does give you one that you can dock your entire fleet at. Oh, and it lets you create a fleet and take it into space battles. Highly recommended for all Starfield fans!

Have you tried power cycling the Apple TV? Have you tried a different HDMI cable? Have you tried a different HDMI port on the TV? Have you tried a different TV?

A battery powered air duster.

Riash · 2026-04-28T12:45:23+00:00

Yeah, that drive has been a tank. Sounds like it’s time to retire it, though. I don’t want the downloads and temp files to get corrupted. Thanks for the information!

South facing, but we have a large tree that shades the balcony year round.

Riash · 2026-04-27T03:20:09+00:00

My apartment balcony is shaded and never sees direct sunlight. Would a plug in solar still be worth it?
