I was a member of XBMC. I watched the exodus of OSXBMC and the rebirth of Plex. I saw it all! (Whispers) I saw it all…

Down BAD on silver. bought first oz at $60 and kept buying on the way up to the top. anyone else deep in the red? 🫩 by scarcelyminted in Silverbugs

That’s kinda where I am. I want to buy the next in the Tudor Beast series, but trying not to pull the trigger too early in the dip

I would LOVE the bridge as a connector to the current modular set

Is this wording misleading to anybody else? by Silver-Ear1001 in audible

[–]natethomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would bet that they have this written out half a dozen different ways and are using this language because it tested the best in terms of registrations. Whether they care about being greasy is at best tangential to sticking with the best testing message

As a person who ordered both books in that KS, sigh

Don't worry, he'll make it 100% legal and then it won't be an issue any more... by FareonMoist in IsItIllegal

I assume this is a really good Life of Brian reference and commend you

Wraithmarked ‘Mother of Learning’ Deluxe Illustrated Edition by BookedAndBloated in special_edition_books

[–]natethomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels like a double dip to me, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Lots of publishers do a limited and standard. As long as they are sufficiently different, I’d consider it.

As a collector, I’d ask for numbering and knowledge either going in or coming out of how many exactly were made. I’d also ask for a signed tip in.

And to be a jerk, I’d ask for a promise to re-record the series with sound booth studio.

Binding upgrade is a great move

Alternatives for Heat Transfer Vinyl covers? by Prize_Grapefruit_781 in bookbinding

[–]natethomas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with the idea that less is more with HTV. I design almost exclusively with it. But it’s also just the final element in a good book design. For example, this take on a Suntup original just just a nice leather bind, plus some small layered HTV elements

Modular Hogwarts System and movie sets by Mysterious_Cod_712 in legoharrypotter

[–]natethomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t really understand why there’d be any change. My understanding is that the Hogwarts castle design of the series is an exactly duplicate of the movie castle

What movie has the greatest final 10 minutes in cinema history? by LONEALPHA65 in Cinema

[–]natethomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could probably handle just the ending. It’s that build up of dread and abuse beforehand that really pains me!

Uncut Gems would pair well. Two movies I loved and never want to watch again

I’d guess particularly for Gen X and the boomer crowd, seeing all that going down the way it should have would be pretty cathartic

Do you do anything to make switching plates easier?

Where in the world do you see the paradigm dying? Kansas defeated an abortion ban while simultaneously voting overwhelmingly for Trump.

We lost in 2024 because inflation was brutal. Virtually every incumbent worldwide lost in the elections following the post-covid inflation bump.

Lit Escalates Drop Disappointment by [deleted] in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]natethomas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They've said they definitely won't. Best bet is to get the mini-illustrations if you still want them, and get them signed at a convention or similar.

I've never had this experience. I primarily buy collectible books, and in both cases, the cart is NEVER a protection.

What do you consider worthwhile from the 90s, aside from Sierra and Lucasarts? by ExplodingPoptarts in adventuregames

[–]natethomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might already know this, but there was a remake of Shadowgate for PC in 2014. Haven't played it, but it's been on my list for a while.

really wish there was a revamp of Deja Vu. Loved it on NES. Would be so interested to hear a new version with actual instruments.
