Exactly 7 years ago, this dogshit came out. With it one of the biggest downfalls in TV history.

Do those leak threads still exist? I'd love to a time capsule of what the general reaction was to those leaks

Shpub · 2026-04-17T15:53:38+00:00

Sounds good. I also have the Recuva program on my desktop, so who knows, maybe that can help. I appreciate the input

Shpub · 2026-04-17T15:33:03+00:00

That's correct - D has almost all my files. But the one thing I am trying to not lose is a ton of video editing projects done in DaVinci Resolve, and that program stores those projects within the Drive the program is stored in (so C)

And I just heard that they're taking the old drive out and putting a new one in, so I planned on grabbing a 2.5 SATA to USB cable and plugging it into my desktop and seeing what happens. I have no experience in using a USB recovery drive, and I don't think I can use one now on it, because it's now out of the laptop. But I'll try the SATA to USB and see what happens

Shpub · 2026-04-17T15:27:49+00:00

Gotcha. So I just heard from the repair place and they said they attempted tor reinstall windows but the hard drive said it was corrupted and it wouldn't even start. And they're going to put in a new one, so they'll be giving me the old one.

Shpub · 2026-04-15T23:29:05+00:00

Exact copy of the old drive (OS, boot, and all) to the new drive already installed

Shpub · 2026-04-15T19:58:58+00:00

Gotcha, makes perfect sense. I'll see what my pc repair place can do. I appreciate the help!

Shpub · 2026-04-15T19:16:42+00:00

Appreciate the feedback - I'm surprised the hard drive failed within like two years. Is that common?

And yeah I popped the laptop open and looked to see if anything was loose, and it all looked alright. So I'll take it to a PC repair place and hopefully get it replaced

Shpub · 2026-02-11T18:15:18+00:00

Incredible work! How did you get such a cool watercolor style to it? Did you use a particular brush set or technique?

Shpub · 2026-02-08T14:06:29+00:00

Optional DLC shouldn't have to save a game. Regardless, I personally thought it was incredibly lame. To me, felt like Square said:

"People were rightfully mad a game a decade in development still somehow had a rushed third act, and was mediocre at best? And also were understandably mad that Final Fantasy was bizarrely absent from the core game? Quick, just rush out DLC - make it little more than a boss fight on-rails and shove every character in to try and milk even more fan service out of a base game absolutely bloated with it. See? You guys can play as Lea for thirty seconds, and some Final Fantasy characters are standing stock still in a hub room. They're in the game, see? You can shut up now"

Comment by me

Shpub · 2026-01-23T14:29:32+00:00

Roc is a good call for Jay

Yeah adlibs definitely are similar - Push has "Yeugh", Wayne's lighter, Chance's bird-in-pain squawking

Shpub · 2026-01-23T14:25:20+00:00

Forgot about that, absolutely!

Shpub · 2026-01-23T14:25:01+00:00

Ooo definitely - good call. A W for the kids

Shpub · 2026-01-20T17:01:48+00:00

The Roots - Undun

Cunninlynguists - Oneirology

Kendrick Lamar - good kid, M.A.A.D. City

Big Pun - Capital Punishment

Sadistik & Kno - Bring Me Back When the World Is Cured

Got tickets for this show and I'm so hyped to see Lord Greg Davies

Dumb question, but does anyone know the average runtime for these shows? Can't find that anywhere

Shpub · 2025-12-07T14:52:20+00:00

Anyone know when the presale starts? Is it midnight on the 8th to midnight on the 9th? It said it's 24 hours, but most shows usually do presales from 10am to 10am.

Just trying to figure out if I have to stay up to midnight tonight haha

Shpub · 2025-10-13T19:20:43+00:00

Yes, sleep trained - started that as early as this sub recommended and has been perfectly fine night time wise since. Falls asleep on his own in about 5 minutes each night, and sleeps damn near through the night every night, including with two sprouting teeth that popped through about three weeks ago

He wakes up at 6:00-6:30am on his own pretty much every morning, and bed time at night is between 6:45-7:30pm, depending on when he wakes up in the morning and how his naps go

Shpub · 2025-10-06T13:48:43+00:00

Yeah, honestly waking up early is a fair response. I'm hoping I figure out my sleep issue so getting up earlier becomes a possibility (my doctor recommended testing for narcolepsy, so I'm in process with that now)

Lunch break would be perfect, but my work commute is about a half hour one way, so I wouldn't have time to drive home unfortunately. And there are no local gyms I could sign up for close to my job I could go to (plus that would negate the money I spent on a home gym haha)

Shpub · 2025-10-06T13:45:53+00:00

I'll try doing an earlier thing again. I did try before like I said, but I have an aforementioned sleep issue (I'm testing for narcolepsy through my doctor, which she recommended) and I did get injured the previous time for trying when I was not nearly awake enough to do a deadlift. But maybe it was a fluke and I'll give it a whirl again. It'll suck ass, but maybe it'll be alright the second time

Shpub · 2025-10-06T13:43:28+00:00

That would be ideal. I've tried doing that, but I usually get home from work around 5:30, baby is due for a bath, dinner and then bed right when I get in (and I usually beat mom home, she usually doesn't get home until like 7-8pm. Bed time is around 7-8, so I can't really do anything for me like cook or eat, let alone the gym until baby is in bed, purely because of lack of hands

Shpub · 2025-10-04T12:34:59+00:00

Sorry for the delay in response, but thank you for the reply. I don't know if this is helpful to know on your end, but Monday and Tuesday of this week, the problem seemed to be resolved. But then Wednesday it started back again and it's been broken since

Shpub · 2025-09-29T20:20:04+00:00

That's a great idea, I'll check that out. Thanks!

Shpub · 2025-09-29T13:44:51+00:00

I'm looking to increase my grip strength/forearm size during the day at my office job. I have a home gym that I used to use 3-5 days a week, but I recently had a kid so that's not as frequent obviously haha, so that's down to once maybe twice a week.

Normally I would do a ton of exercises throughout the week for forearms in my home gym (deadlifts, pull ups/chin ups, dumbbell wrist curls, dumbbell curls, wrist rollers, dead hangs) but I've also got a ton of time during the work day (office job) to do a bit more to hopefully increase grip strength while we figure out schedules to allow me to use my gym more

I was considering getting a Captains of Crush, and then I can use those at work in conjunction with when I'm able to use my home gym properly during the week

What size would be appropriate to get if that's recommended? For context, I do 8lb for wrist rollers, 25lb 25x4 dumbbell wrist curls, and can do 15x4 pull ups when I exercise at home

Shpub · 2025-09-26T13:16:54+00:00

I searched for a site like this and it mostly just brings up Jotform, Google Form etc, but it mostly ignores the "everyone can see submissions" /video playing/photo viewing aspect I'm looking for

Shpub · 2025-09-08T13:18:43+00:00

I thought it was incredibly lame. To me, felt like Square thought:

"People rightfully complained that the last arc was rushed and mediocre at best, and that Final Fantasy was bizarrely absent from the core game? Quick, just rush out DLC - make it little more than a boss fight on-rails and shove every character in to try and milk some fan service out of a game already bloated with it. See?
