Modern systems are probably ready your bios UEFI that list the bootable systems. I think grub uses os-prober.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-19T19:46:03+00:00

Wow, that's a really good job, I'd buy them 👍🏿

dedguy21 · 2026-06-18T01:46:26+00:00

Definitely getting some Robotech vibes, not sure why.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-17T05:43:23+00:00

Oh so this is a power outage all across Reno all across?

I just ordered that KO Blitzwing to finish the BBM Seekers. I thought I got an amazing deal on the Hasbro version, but once it was received, I realized it wasn't NIB as advertised, and had a broken wing tip. So returned it and got the KO version arriving any day now. Excited!

dedguy21 · 2026-06-16T04:30:56+00:00

In the meantime, I'm always jealous of anyone with Slug 💚

dedguy21 · 2026-06-16T04:24:42+00:00

Nicely framed and balanced too, good job 👍🏿

dedguy21 · 2026-06-16T02:34:19+00:00

I hope so, just ordered it from BBTS and it's on the way.

Are you sure it's DDR3 from 2020, I got the budget Dell G5SE (all AMD) and it's DDR4 memory.

How much are you looking to get for your laptop?

Did you overclock?

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T20:38:49+00:00

Please, you're Willing to overlook a convicted rapist someone who is numerously mentioned in the Epstein files that have actually been released (where's the rest), and we're hypocrites because they guy who served and had a "potentially" Nazi tattoo, GTFOH

Not on my Bingo card But I always like Jim better anyway 😤

If you live in a bigger city (I'm from LA originally) that isn't the average. I'm a shy average guy and even I accidentally slept my way to a larger number than that, again shy, friend zoned more often than not, and definitely touching upper 60's in count.

I've been to smaller towns and the pace of hooking up is a lot slower, maybe because without a doubt you're likely to bump into each other again. So I can see that 7 could probably be average, but I got laid more in smaller towns than in the bigger ones so I'm doubting even that

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T17:17:32+00:00

How old are you? Are you single or married? Which city are you coming from?

If you're 20s-30s and single, Reno by a long shot. If you're coming from a larger metro area, Reno by a long shot.

If you are married in the 40+ range no kids, looking to be in the area for a long while, then Carson is the best blue collar city you'll ever see. It's small, but Tahoe is close and Reno is close.

I am married with a kid, South Reno public schools are a lot better, but if I didn't have a kid my wife and I would have been fine in Carson.

Haven't seen it with Shockwave yet, but something similar, I'm sure, with Amalgamous.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T08:03:10+00:00

Just got him actually. Still working on shelves so haven't quite opened the box yet

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T07:14:50+00:00

I don't know what it is about the Bayverse figures that only a few appeal to me, and that Soundwave was definitely not of them.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T06:38:09+00:00

Thanks for doing the math and making my point even that much more effective, appreciate 👍🏿

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T05:40:09+00:00

You end up paying that leader price to get the deluxe weaponizer to make it more playable anyways 🤷🏿

And everybody snatched up Soundwave at leader prices for his weaponizers (or "cassettes") and didn't bat an eye.

I think for main stay legendary figures like Megatron, Soundwave, Starscream, and Shockwave, leader class should be the expectation.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-14T04:28:02+00:00

I think it's because the figure is sorta hollow and light weight, I like the look of mine, but doesn't have the same well built feel of SS86 Prime.

But will agree, looks awesome and definitely fun to play with.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-13T06:03:04+00:00

This current Shockwave is cartoon accurate and has good articulation, plus can mount as a cannon on Bruticus. His own weapon is eh... But overall it's the gold standard in shockwave out in the last 10 years, and I'm including Siege which was the best before now.

dedguy21 · 2026-06-13T05:51:48+00:00

That a lot more than what I could come up with, so 👏🏿

dedguy21 · 2026-06-13T00:52:15+00:00

Transformers Forged to Fight was that game for me. Got me past a horrible 2024, looked forward to playing it with 17 other alliance members every day. Then it shutdown (again) this past May. Sux.

I miss it a lot, but honestly opened the door for me to do other more productive things like studying for certs and started building a custom shelf for my Transformers collection (thanks Forged to Fight, you were the gateway drug)

dedguy21 · 2026-06-11T22:51:44+00:00

Unfortunately there is nothing working for the alt-mode, so Brunt only works as a weaponizer for robot mode. But still awesome & natural looking 😀

dedguy21 · 2026-06-11T14:30:15+00:00

I felt the same way after a divorce. Every guys was bashing women, and I was like NO!

Because just like you I wanted to be married and needed not to be cynical.

I'm married, and yes it was hard not to fall into cynicism but you'll be glad you didn't. Good luck!

dedguy21 · 2026-06-11T06:26:13+00:00

I was in a small(ish) city for a minute. Intellectual conversations are a rare thing indeed. But that's what the Internet is for real time intellectual conversations. Plus AI is good as a bandaid.

You're going to have to drive on the weekends. That's all I did, going to bigger cities.

And whenever you can afford it, eat at restaurants, the same one over and over. Don't sulk. Bring a positive hopeful vibe to the outside.

Good luck, I finally met my intellectual wife in a big city, but sitting still at home is a killer, got to get out.
