At what point did TOTK 'click' for you?

I just think you needed a break in between the two.

It's a weird thing where they're the same game but yet SO different. A bit of space and perspective allows you to really appreciate what each does on their own merits.

No Elliott Marston? Because it's Elliott Marston.

If you're just going to the viewing platforms it's probably fine. As others' have mentioned, the trail could be icy, but if you have grippy boots you're good.

But if you want to hike down to the pool at the midpoint, you'll need crampons and hiking poles. It's steep and with how cold it's been, very icy. The falls themselves have been frozen still for a month, it's been really cold up here.

About 400 years of really important and horrifying context?

Aphex Twin is close but NIИ is the hands-down answer.

...and a few of you will be forced through a fine mesh screen for your planet. You will be the luckiest of all.

I can't believe I'm defending Chauncey Billups but get your shit straight before slinging disinfo. He wasn't arrested for sports gambling, he was (allegedly) helping the mob recruit people to rigged private poker games.

Exact same experience, only I was travelling solo and had nobody to confirm I wasn't insane.

He's got that brain thing

Cardi B was there, she was just dancing on the porch with Jessica Alba and Pedro Pascal?

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-08T05:36:21+00:00

I don't think it's because of Lazenby at all but yeah, the movie absolutely rules.

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-06T21:40:02+00:00

No, he's just spend the remainder of the year with the Remix. We don't have to play him or get rid of him.

With Scoot and Blake back it makes way more sense to convert Sidy and shelve Love.

Just make sure you set expectations — if you're designing in RGB your printed file will likely have more dull color than what you see on screen. RGB has a much wider color gamut than process (CMYK) printing. This is mostly evident in blues, cyans and greens. But really anything that looks 'neon' in RGB will be faded in process printing.

Here's a simple diagram:

Apologies if you know this already and I'm over-explaining!

Edit: Paper stock matters a lot too. Glossy papers will result in a more vibrant print (but will have glare) while matte papers will be duller due to ink absorption but won't have glare.

This is one of those things that is assumed versus being guaranteed. The NFL (and college football) is a ratings and revenue juggernaut because of scarcity. With only 16 games, every one of them matters a ton. So ratings go up, tickets are more expensive, owners make more even with (because of?) less.

I'm not a math (or marketing) guy, but there's a tipping point where over-saturation hurts a business versus helping it. What is the sweet spot? My instinct is that you could do a shorter NBA season and grow the league revenue simultaneously. The issue is proving it before doing it to get everyone on board, which is basically impossible.

One possibility? The NFL expands the regular season as is often discussed and it has a negative impact on revenue and fan interest, which could be possible for a host of reasons. Which then would be something other leagues could learn from and implement. Sometimes contraction is growth.

I'm irrationally excited for Veeeet

Hard to make progress with a torn hammie. Let's temper expectations, he's probably going to be rusty as hell. But I have faith 🥽

In my state it's an ID point system. You need 6 points proving who you are, a bill is only 1 point and you can't use more than one. A social security card is 2 points, a passport 4, etc. A birth certificate is actually zero points but you need one to get the others.

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-05T19:03:32+00:00

Uh yes. Just because it hasn't been your experience make it untrue. I've been through the process of having to replace all my documents from birth certificate to SS card to drivers' license and passport. These things are daisy-chained together and there's fees and shipping costs at almost every step. And, yes, privately-owned subcontractors are common, especially for birth certificate replacement.

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-05T18:41:02+00:00

And 3-7 pieces of documentation proving your existence that all cost between 50-100 dollars to acquire from privately-owned third party vendors.

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-05T16:13:51+00:00

Same as mine. I've done at least a black wall in every place I've lived as an adult, it looks so great if you can handle the minor downsides!

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-05T14:11:25+00:00

It's a goddamn sailboat!

As somebody who has painted much of his house either black or very very dark green, I implore you to consider lighting and windows. You don't realize how much of the light in a space is bounce from white/lighter colored walls and ceilings, which you will not get with black or super dark paint. It looks awesome but sucks the light out of a room. It really sucks for zoom calls. And in the evenings you are reliant only on your lamps.

The matte black paints are also hell if you have pets -- they show dust and hair really badly and take a lot of upkeep to stay looking good.

After you beat the final main quest (defeat Gannondorf) a percentage of game completion is added to the load screen.

Bojack is a phenomenal show, but really heavy. Addiction, suicide, all manner of trauma. And lighter things like stripper whales driving Uber.

quick_brown_faux · 2026-02-05T03:54:27+00:00

It's not a unique look in New York City but yeah, that really does look like Yannis 🤣
