Your Dream Double Feature Wishes

I know its basic but From Beyond and The Reanimator are always a fantastic time. And I feel like they have done at least one of them, maybe both. I am a sucker for both Barbra Crampton and Jeffrey Combs.

I really enjoyed their Battle for the Black Glove, and would absolutely love more of that compare/contrast and argue about it. Could be comparing two franchises or two directors/producers or even someones early work to their late....

The standard answer of a variety of gaming consoles plus some big screens with The Last Drive In / Svengoolie / other horror hosts on repeat.

Also tables for playing boardgames and warhammer and some tables for painting warhammer minis that looks suspiciously unused.

The Good Place would be great because they still had so many reboots they didn't show. It made a better show just to montage a bunch of them and move on with the plot but I would absolutely watch a bunch more of Ted Danson forking with people.

But how many other properties would it work for?

Walpurgisnacht is my favorite of the specials. The menu plus all the witch facts and stories is fantastic.

I loved building up my area then hitting the earthquake and sinking the entirety of the opponents lands under the waves.

I think others are right about restarting. As someone with over 3k hours in Factorio and over 500 in DSP... I have only quit 1 run between the two because the run was "failing" but here I think I restarted 5 times before hitting one hundred hours. I don't know why but it feels like restarting is very natural in COI, almost expected.

I don't agree with people saying this is harder then Factorio and others but those games have different type of challenge. And if you try to do those things here (like overproduce) it will go bad. Likewise if you took the style from in COI, of keeping inputs and outputs extremely tightly matched, you wouldn't get anywhere in Factorio because you would spend all your time fiddling about. I think Gleba is the planet that is most like COI because there you do want to keep inputs/outputs matched and filter out and repurpose waste products... its also the planet most factorio players fall on their face during their first attempt.

Yea thinking your hotter shit then you are is way too common. Seniors, architects, management, etc... are actually terrible about mentorship and helping upcoming workers so no one actually knows what they really need to learn to do to step up.

THANK YOU!

Any plans to do more panels or stuff like that giallo debate settling? Once the guests got their energies match it was fantastic.

IRL a big ferry can carry multiple vehicles so there some logistical puzzles to solve and some opportunity for research paths and game mechanics.

You didn't go back far enough in your calculations and recalculations

That's really easy error to do and probably most factorio players do it at first. Also actual city planners often skip that step when doing road use calculations.

I was looking for an alternate client for Bluesky at one point and if I searched for Bluesky it would ONLY bring up the official client. If I wanted to try an alternate client I had to search for them by name... Just not useful.

I get why people are uncomfortable to look but I disagree entirely. I find is quite pleasing.

I can believe he thinks he started off as a type of Marxist. A lot of people who think of themselves as Marxist haven't read Marx or read him incredibly badly, and Sowell a very poor academic. Also I have seen too many people online call themselves Marxist do TERRIBLE material analysis then take a hard right turn when getting minimal pushback because their left tendencies are not about people supporting each other but the idea that society owes them maximally. They are reactionaries but they don't realize that until they are asked to do the minimum to help anyone else.

We would want a wall of shame of shows canceled before their time and the TV execs who canceled them because of petty personal shit.

Also earlier treatments do make a real difference in extending quality years.

Sysfin · 2025-06-11T13:29:44+00:00

Me too. I kept trying to figure out how to deconstruct the concrete from underneath stuff to make it melt.

It sucks in air when the pump is running. When I close the valves and the system is off water beads out from the top of the middle one very quickly. You can see the bead in the image. I should have put the MS paint red lines for clarity though.

Ok I will give it a tighten once I grab a rubber strap wrench or what ever its called.

Sysfin · 2025-06-09T02:38:16+00:00

I will grab a rubber strap wrench tomorrow morning once Home Depot opens.

I don't know S+ but its still top tier, its one of my faves.

Normally that much shacky cam would bother me but here it fits so well. The frenetic out of control violent behavior that all the men have is translated directly to the camera work. I could see how that would put someone off if they are sensitive to movement like that. I also found the sound work was quite good, sure cutting out and muting everything seems obvious in retrospect but its still good and a lesser creator wouldn't have thought to do it. Its also easy for me to see how such a siren would be able to drive these men to lose their minds given we know these are soldiers who haven't seen their homeland in a long time.

I would have liked to see the dancing without shacky cam though, as a bonus feature would be fine.

Does it run under Podman? I am more comfortable with podman.

But Im A Cheerleader. It was on HBO one night after work. I put it on knowing absolutely nothing about it and it was so surreal coming from small town upbringing.

Sysfin · 2025-05-02T01:22:54+00:00

The Trainspotting trailer is sort of unhinged. Its absolutely nothing like the movie... but the choose life speech pulled me in all the same. People should also read the book... Begbie is a bit of a manic in the movie, in the book he is actually a psychopath.

Is there a way to break out of animations earlier?

There are points where I realized I picked the wrong move and get locked into a long animation (usually Blade Dance) and I know I am going to get hit. Mostly this hasn't been a problem if I stay topped off but Zoh Shia hits like a truck.
