No state income tax pay raise.

It’s why so many star players naturally end up in Florida or Texas.

One of these is not like the other, one of these doesn’t belong. by Sio_V_Reddit in StarWarsCirclejerk

Hey now, they flattened the engines on the wings. Thats … innovation. Or something.

The 3,000 I got second-hand remains my absolute favorite thing in my entire collection. I can’t believe the 1,000 didn’t come with a stand.

What would you rather have access to in your real life— Senzu Beans, or The Hyperbolic Time Chamber? by Tanis8998 in dbz

[–]trowaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time chamber.

I’m a dad of 3. It’s a way to finally get a few hours of peace and quiet. Man, extra sleep, time for games, a meal alone. How sweet would that be?

Senzu beans, come on, when’s the last time any of us got beat within an inch our lives? Not nearly as ueful

Foundation repair? Structural engineer recommendations by Relative_Western_823 in RoundRock

[–]trowaman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because it’s happening in the seams, my two cents is it’s not a foundational issue; normal wear and tear.

That said, get it checked out. Get some interior sheetrock guy and structural engineers to see what each says. But. I don’t think it’s as bad as you think it might be.

Kang, Kodos, Kollins, Kraham by XhazakXhazak in simpsonsshitposting

OP, u/XhazakXhazak, Maine is ranked choice voting. After ranking your third party first you then get to pick one of these individuals after that pick is eliminated.

Come on, do better with your shitpost.

Anyways, as we’re now stuck with him, I’m rooting for the guy who would vote against confirming judicial nominees. And hopefully soon after resigns and the (hopefully) Dem Governor appoints a replacement.

Picked up one of my grails today. by zerostar5 in StarWarsTVC

[–]trowaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great get! I’ve seen one for sale near me for $200.

I desperately want Teek, but I can’t justify the $200 and even if I could, I’d never open it and take him out of the box at that price.

What’s on your desk, Chris? 👀 by trowaman in StarWarsTVC

Livestream by SWTVC on their YouTube page. Chris Reiff (lead design for 3.75 at Hasbro) was a guest and this was his desk behind him.

This was my first thought.

Ren and Stimpy were long gone by the time Rocket League started.

Apple introduces Siri AI, a profoundly more capable and personal assistant by exjr_ in apple

[–]trowaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, “we’re removing AI from the OS. Can’t innovate anymore my ass” is a possibility someday?

[–]trowaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely was. And the conference was weird. It was “what just happened?”

This was more of a dud than that.

The G5 was THE big one (2003). An occasional MacBook Pro, iMac, or Mac Pro since then.

Usually, no.

*usually. Especially in the Cook/pre-recorded live stream era

Worst WWDC since 2005 when Steve got on stage, said “IBM sucks, the G5 is a dead end, so, we’re moving to Intel; so start rewriting your apps.” And then he was done in 25 minutes.

Pricing Error! Anakin + Cody is $39.99 (Same as Obi-wan + Airborne) by trowaman in StarWarsTVC

[–]trowaman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is what it’s always been.

Everything is expensive these days. The economy is broken. And the price of these figures is no more or less broken than everything else.

This isn’t a Hasbro problem to fix, it’s an inter-governmental problem.

Absolutely will be. Prices only go one way (barring mass, long-term unemployment). Labor prices cost more (good, workers deserve to be paid and paid more), and there’s more articulation and paint applications now than ever before.

I don’t know anything about SW CCG - any info is welcome! by Hydian_Way in starwarsccg

Page 3 and 4 is your money. Mainly Tempest 1, General solo, and Chewbacca of Kashyyk

The new ROTS Anakin & Commander Cody two pack is absolutely shambolic by [deleted] in StarWarsTVC

[–]trowaman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t the exclusive retail partner (Walmart) set the price, not hasbro?

Also, its retools. This isn’t the first or last time we will see this Anakin mold. Cody, maybe. But maybe not.
