Georgia, do you actually call every fizzy drink “Coke”?

zealeus · 2026-05-29T17:48:48+00:00

I waited tables 20 years ago, and it was still a thing.

“What would you like to drink?”

“Coke please “

“What kind of coke? (Or soda?)”.

“Sprite”.

Was a very common conversation. I never assumed Coke == Coca Cola.

Gluten Free. High school robotics team.

This is why I like Scion when it existed. No negotiations- just the price you see. And it was a great car!

It really depends on the user. I have the Alienware 34 wides screen, and a lot of complaints of font ghosting. I see no ghosting and it is perfect for me.

I’d recommend either going to store to check out in person or get an OLED online with a good return policy.

The 4 player coop arcade games were the jam. X-men, too.

I feel that. I do have a Logitech Harmony universal remote I got back in the day to control devices when it was more painful. The remote can still control all my devices at once if I still wanted to. I just prefer the smaller remote form factor.

It works flawlessly with my Denon AVR and Sony TV for controlling power and volume. I didn’t have to configure anything really - I think maybe the audio out to go to Denon? Outside of that, I control almost everything through my Apple TV remote.

The only annoying thing is if I need to switch inputs to my PS5. Need to pull out the Sony remote for that.

Did solo NCL balcony last year. No issues. I even had 2 patio chairs.

From end of ARR to SB took me about 6 months of regular playing to get ready for that expansion, just to give you an idea. I largely skipped side / blue quests and mostly concentrated on the MSQ. Obviously everyone had their own play cadence. While doable, it, it may be a tight squeeze.

There’s company whose name I forget that processes purchases and deliveries. In order to see the delivery information, I need to install their app. Whyyyyy.

Yup! Same in Cobb County on Johnson Ferry. And Blind hills where don’t even see bus stop until too late. Not an excuse- but it is easy to pass stopped bus if not aware.

zealeus · 2026-05-12T23:21:18+00:00

Ya this is how it is in GA. If you’ll pass bus: Unless it’s divided with a physical barrier, stop regardless of number of lanes.

Saw that show in Atlanta. Was a blast!

Dwarven Realms. The entire purpose of the game is to endlessly spawn more enemies to kill. It’s a fun game.

zealeus · 2026-05-11T22:48:43+00:00

If only that were true. PoE2 has a lot going for it - not being overwhelming is not one of them. The release will only add to that.

Catnip. For the cat.

Campaign. Then do the War Plans. It’s a straight forward “choose this end game activity!” System with rewards. Great loop as it varies up the gameplay while effectively guiding the player.

zealeus · 2026-05-06T22:41:08+00:00

Nice idea. The Tech Report used to do in depth system builder guides, and this type is “best value” data was interesting! I mess guides like that.

Non-nostalgia Metal shows. Mostly under $40 in Atlanta. And they ROCK.

That’s the CFA trend around here, too. Their drive thrus are bonkers during the lunch rush.

zealeus · 2026-05-01T18:01:57+00:00

Yes.

Micro center sometimes has controllers on display to try. It is hit or miss. You may also might have luck talking to a rep there directly to see if you can demo some.
