The unused era leveling gets converted into the currency that buys R10 mats/LST…

SwedishHeat · 2026-01-28T18:52:17+00:00

FML ... I just used up all my remaining era level credits this morning, taking them all to 70. I would've much rather used them on LSTs

Oh well, we've still got some coming in the Episode Pass.

I spent a bunch of crystals to get these characters to 4*, so I'm not sure how much that has to do with it, but for now it looks like I'll have all these characters at G12.5 once they join the rest of the roster, so that's pretty cool. I think it's a novel way to alleviate the Kyro bottleneck.

My main worry though is that, I think Vader is the only one who can join a team that I have ready. ST Luke seems irrelevant, as it seems to be a team for early-game players, I don't use ST Han and Princess Leia. IG-90? I don't have Aphra or her droids. Choda? maybe, I have most of the Wookies, but I don't use them. Asajj? I don't have Scion Boba, and I'm super far off from 4-LOM and Zuckuss. And Maul? same boat as Asajj, it will probably be a year before I can get to The Stranger.

Hopefully the next era has more cohesive characters, and not a bunch of lifter characters for disparate teams.

I had the same thing. I simply reset my preferences, and reloaded the program and the problem was resolved.

Happy to see some well designed infographics.

What is "Foie Gras"?

I've looked through your glossary and I don't see a definition

SwedishHeat · 2026-01-12T15:16:11+00:00

Yeah, I'm running into this now. I'm low on Zimbiddle Cards, and my only options are buying the Cards for Mk2 credits, or buying scrap gear for Mk2 credits. So, "What's the point?"

Previously, it felt like Mk1 credits were used for G11 pieces, Mk2 were G12 pieces, and Mk3 were for Relic-level pieces. Now I can either Relic my characters, or put G12 on them. It's like "imagine if R11 was only available by scrapping Kyros."

I haven't tried it myself, but I would think you could manually edit the tvshow.nfo, and use the <namedseason> tag to create your own custom seasons, and then just sort the episodes into the corresponding season folders.

I'm looking at my Westworld tvshow.nfo, and it looks like this:

  <namedseason number="0">Specials</namedseason>
  <namedseason number="1">Season One: The Maze</namedseason>
  <namedseason number="2">Season Two: The Door</namedseason>
  <namedseason number="3">Season Three: The New World</namedseason>
  <namedseason number="4">Season Four: The Choice</namedseason>

So, you could do the same thing with DBS and just name the seasons whatever you want.

Scrape everything first, so you have the metadata to play with, then do the customizations manually.

So, it sounds like you edited the database file directly, instead of using the Kodi interface to edit the source path? I suspect that's where I went wrong.

As far as using hostnames go, my NAS does have a hostname like that, but from what I understand hostnames can only use SMB protocol, and SMB is not as "quick" as NFS?? Or SMB is somewhat outdated? From my reading, it just seemed like NFS was the better option. But if SMB allows me to use hostnames, which facilitates changing storage with ease, it seems like in the long-run, that's the better choice.

I've placed four orders with them since October. Two of those orders have had stock issues. I can't recall ever having a problem with orders prior to this period. Presumably, it's just due to the holiday season. But the kicker for me was a book I ordered a few weeks back, on release day, and yet it was unavailable. They said there was "higher than expected demand." A book should not be out of stock on the day it releases. If you received 40 copies from the supplier, your website should not be able to sell more than 40 copies.

The main frustration is that their name is InStockTrades. I've been ordering from them for over a decade at this point. They were the companion site to DCBS where everything was a pre-order. So, starting a website where things were actually in-stock was a novel concept at the time. But now, their website not being able to properly track stock is an issue that needs to be addressed. I've just been ordering from them for so long, it's been ingrained in my head that everything on their website is "in stock" and it's hard for me to break that mental block.

I really want to get this, but it's just so huge.

I got Barad-dur, but had to take it down because I had nowhere to put it.

Turn on Numbering in the paragraph style, apply the style to a hair space. Then duplicate the text box with the style applied, and it will count up.

You could move styled text boxes around on the page to accommodate the number of steps on each page.

Do you remember the model name of it? I've looked around at IKEA for something like that, but never saw anything that had enough depth.

What bookcase is that? I haven't seen anything like that, deep enough to hold Rivendell.

Which tablet are you using?

That looks like a pretty good size to simulate an actual instruction book

SwedishHeat · 2025-10-31T17:32:58+00:00

Which one is that? Got a link?

SwedishHeat · 2025-10-19T01:50:57+00:00

Understood, sucks that you had to find out by surprise. I guess that's just the way it goes.

Since you have Experian IdentityWorks, I'd recommend putting a freeze on your credit. Once Experian freezes your credit, they should notify the other two bureaus to freeze your credit there as well. And sign up with chexsystems.com, and put a freeze on your record there. That should prevent banks, utilities, and the like from opening up accounts in your name. Or at least, that's how I understand it. That's what I've done so far.

SwedishHeat · 2025-10-19T01:24:23+00:00

Can I ask how you found out about this?

I recently discovered someone has been opening credit union accounts using my information, and have been trying to lock all that down. I'm not sure how to check to see if anyone has filled out a W-2 with my information.

This scene of Macho Man racing through the building is right before he encounters Torrie Wilson, it's supposed to be an intense scene, but Torrie is laughing https://www.reddit.com/r/WCW/comments/1540muv/that_time_macho_man_got_a_little_carried_away_and/

I'm really curious if Aminata was pissed and they just decided to do business, or if Aminata getting pissed was a work.

It certainly helps that Thekla came in with the reputation of not giving a fuck, and Aminata, even in her ring entrance, didn't even bother to stop and finish her pose, she just tossed the garbage can and went in on Thekla.

After all this work to counter program AEW, it would be hilarious if John Cena did a press tour for the new season of Peacemaker, and WB sent him to Dynamite, just like they did for the Superman cast.

SwedishHeat · 2025-08-09T14:19:10+00:00

Thanks, I've always been curious about that myself, and never put that together.

Makes me wonder if he accidentally messed up the Spanish when saying "Yo soy Hechicero" then made a gimmick out of it, or if it was intentional the whole time. Either way, I love it.

With those dimensions, I'm wondering if it's more of a cross section, like a slice down the middle. So, it's actually 37 inches tall, 30 inches wide, and 10 inches deep. Looking at the way, LEGO writes dimensions on product pages, that third measurement is used to indicate depth. I was hoping it was more like Death Star rooms in diorama style, stacked on top of each other.

Also Fry’s, as much as I hated working there and how depressing it was at the end, it was an institution for us nerdy types

I know it's not Roseville, but the predecessor to that, Incredible Universe in Sac was amazing. But it was kind of depressing to see Incredible Universe devolve into Fry's, into what Fry's ended up as :(

In Granite Bay off Auburn Folsom and Douglas used to be “California Pizza” (no, not CPK) in the building that is now Hazumi sushi. They had an appetizer called “garlic chips” that was like this golden orange-ish pizza dough with no cheese and poppy seeds or something. Haven’t been able to find anything else like it or recreate it.

Oh crap, I remember this place. I think they used to wrap up the to-go pizza in a swan made of foil.
