    Should we try to broadcast our existence out to the universe so other intelligent life will notice?

    After reading The Dark Forest, I emphatically say no.

    Relationship Abby Hensel is off the market

    I found this really heartwarming. I remember reading about them when their special originally aired and thinking how hard it would be for them to be in a relationship. So I felt really happy for one of them to married. Like others have said, what happens when the other meets someone and gets...

    Do you know how to use a sewing machine?

    I started an apprenticeship at a naval shipyard and did industrial sewing for 10 years. My buddies hired into other trades at the same time like welding and machinists, and used to give me a hard time about sewing, but I can make a lot of nice shit these days. I have an industrial machine in my...

    Television Netflix - 3 Body Problem

    About half way through the season and really enjoying it. Loved the books but realize they had to make some concessions for the show. It's been a few years since I read the books, so I've forgot a lot of details. If I read them more recently I might be a little more critical of some.of the stuff...

    Relationship How are you managing your snoring in a relationship ?

    Go to the doc and get a referral for a sleep study. Snoring can be a sign sleep apnea which can cause lots of cardiovascular issues if left untreated. My wife used to complain about my snoring, but I didn't think much of it since I'm not overweight and mostly happened when I slept on my back...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Just finshed up exploring/questing the Corel area and ready to live forward with the main quest. It was a pretty small area and looks like a lot more unlocked out due to progress. Getting ready to go out of town for spring break and it’s killing me knowing I won’t be able to jump back in for...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Finished up the sequence at Costa Del Sol. Was getting a little anxious since you go 3 big sequences locked down going from Junon, the cruise ship, then Costa Del Sol. Glad I'm finally done where I can take control of the map again. Checked my time logged and I'm up to 27 hours and it...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    They count towards points for the area that can be used for crafting materia from Chadry and also give exp towards your Party Level. I'm sure there is a trophy attached, but don't care much for that.

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Cleared the Junon area this morning. 2 tasks absolutely had me banging my head against the wall with killing the birds without them using Soothing Breeze and the last Fort Condor fight. I would get so close with Fort Condor, but run out of time. I finally threw in the towel and turned the shit...

    Social If you can have superpower, what would it be, what would you do with it?

    Definitely mind control like Professor X. Essentially influence every situation around you. On a small scale you fly under the radar and make bank by working in sales convincing people to buy stuff for commission and be the most successful real estate agent ever. Or you could just manipulate...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    About 15 hours in and clearing the Junon area. I'm really enjoying it as it does the open world thing well. Not sure if I'm loving it so much because all the open world mechanics or because its a refresh of my favorite game of all time. The open world is pretty standard fare with nothing new...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Been super busy and haven't been able to put as much time into this as I wanted. Just finished up the grasslands area of all the side content before I move on. Getting ready to go out of town for work so not going to get much play time coming up and it's killing me.

    What do you think about those projector TVs?

    I've used an Optoma 1080 projector in our den for years on a 110 inch pull down screen and it looked great. I bought it back in 2010 and never felt the need to upgrade to 4K. When covid hit I took it down to use it outside for outdoor movie nights in the summer and invite friends but could...

    Multiplatform What game are/were you really good at?

    I used to be top of the heap with Tekken Tag at the local scene. I worked at a burger joint on a navy base that was attached to a bowling alley with an arcade and then at Sears with an arcade a few stores down. I played a bunch of matches every day with a steady stream of new players and a...

    Updated ! Fantasy Novels (Serious Reco’s)

    Another vote for Abercrombie and his First Law world. The first trilogy is great, along with the follow up stand alone novels, but his follow up Age of Madness Trilogy is fantastic as well. Dude writes killer fantasy. Another series I really enjoy is The Riyria Revelations by Michael J...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Finally able to get started with this after going through the Intermission DLC. Probably could have finished it earlier, but was having a lot of fun with the Fort Condor stuff. Only got to play for about an hour of Rebirth, and I'm really itching to get more time. Just turning the Remake on to...

    I finally beat Minecraft

    Minecraft is the first game I really played with my son when he was young and loved it. We spent a ton of time but building aimlessly is worlds but never beat it together. He's 13 now and does all kinds of crazy self imposed runs and speed runs the ender dragon. It's crazy how good he is at...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    I'm super fucking butthurt about this. I bought the digital delux twin pack on the PS app for $89 the other day. Got an email stating thanks for your purchase, but didn't bother reading it since I knew what it was. Get home from work today and go to download the game and it doesn't find it in my...

    PlayStation Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

    Went to buy Rebirth and hadn't played the Intermission DLC, so was planning on picking that up too. Was pleasantly surprised to see that a part of the pre order bonus was the "Dual Pack" that came with full copy of Intergrade for the same price.

    Long Term Couples - TV in the Bedroom?

    We have a TV in the bedroom, but only really gets used when I'm traveling for work. We really don't have the TV on much these days unless we deliberately sit down to watch something. We used to have on the news or some channel to just have some background noise going on, but with streaming it...
