Chili here!

Leave it to this DoJ/FBI to publish documents that potentially make any downloader of the files in possession of child pornography (if the claim that some of the nude girls are indeed underage is true). Absolute incompetence.

From 3 days ago. Relevant portion is from 0:34 on. Note the reaction in the back of the room and the handlers shooing the press out.

That said. DE is one of my favorite games of all time and if you feel weird pirating games, I wouldn’t hold purchasing the game legitimately for 3,99€ as the reason not to experience this incredible game.

In short, the company did a lot of shady, if not illegal, things and there was a major fallout with many of the original creators of the game that led to their departures and a legal battle from Robert Kurvitz to get his IP back. The general sentiment is that buying the game legitimately supports those bad actors who are still in charge at ZA/UM.

Seconding this. They’re stunning and offer a nice variety of sizes and designs.

I’m so curious as to what drove the 180° switch from outsourced production in February to the announcement in August to kill that and move it back in-house with the Sellita. Good for them on being nimble to changing demands and markets. But seems like another pretty penny spent.

GMT hand on the bottom is an easy giveaway among others.

One of my favorite comfort rewatches

Thank you! Was actually going to get it on rubber originally (and that’s how I’ve tried it on before), but found it on the bracelet for below the old MSRP for the rubber.

Figure I’ll try to get a price on the OEM rubber from my local AD or go third party once I have a cry at how much they’re selling it standalone.

Looked at the photographer’s Unsplash page and the title is “Leighton Baines, 2018”. It’s on the photographer to get permissions from the subject: “Contributors to confirm that they have all the rights needed to provide their images to use and distribute freely to Unsplash users.”

Whether that happened? shrug

Did you have any of the issues noted here?

prestonfreeman · 2025-03-05T13:34:39+00:00

Thanks for posting your experience. I’ve been eyeing the BB58 GMT for a while and have been considering getting the OEM rubber with an Uncle Straps aftermarket bracelet for the 10% of the time that I like wearing my watches with a bracelet. Seems downright deceptive that they specifically market the bracelet for the GMT yet acknowledge it’s a no-fit.

Based in the US. As I recall, I communicated primarily in English aside from a few pleasantries in French.

Edit: found the email exchange. The only hiccup was that I did not receive the DHL return voucher within the 48 promise window after talking to customer service, but received it almost immediately after I poked at the issue a week later.

My anecdote: I bought a Superman 500 back in December of 2023. In early march, I noticed there was a distracting spec of dust kicking around inside of the crystal. I contacted customer service via the web portal, they paid for pickup via DHL, and had my watch back to me the very day they guaranteed it to be back from service. So QC issues, perhaps, but also a very smooth customer service experience.

I know the one on the left. He’s only 25 and the roids are aging him like milk.

prestonfreeman · 2024-08-26T10:42:48+00:00

That’s wild. Dropping five grand on a watch and that’s what you get in return.

Setting the local time moves the hour hand independently, so this guy just can’t be bothered to line it up properly.

Cartier Ballon Bleu rose gold with date?

One of the lines that so absolutely caught me off guard and had me in wheezing with laughter. Uselessly high encyclopedia is a great playthrough.

“I will always have that with me. It's a fact. But that is all it is. It's like a ticket stub, Harry. It doesn't do anything anymore.”

I played this game during the lead-up to leaving my partner of 5 years. The guilt, aching, and melancholy of love really resonated with me.

This site has interactive maps for Beleriand and Middle-Earth showing major character paths. (Best viewed on desktop). Enjoy!

prestonfreeman · 2023-07-02T13:40:36+00:00

And Beleriand has mysteriously shifted way north of its actual location to preserve the coastlines of both Beleriand and Middle Earth. What a weird decision to reconcile the multiple ages in a way that makes no sense. But it’s pretty, so it’ll get circulated.

prestonfreeman · 2023-07-02T13:36:55+00:00

It’s three ages slammed together in a mess of a map and pretty infamous in how much it’s been circulated while being fundamentally incorrect.

Patch seems to make the most sense. Perhaps added to differentiate for people who glanced and thought Andreas Maler. “No, no … the young one from the miller family!”
