  1. Full disclosure I ordered one after binging all the Jack Carr Terminal List books. Was a 16-20 week lead time around Thanksgiving. I went maple and no spike since I am unlikely to go on a successful globe hopping vengeance fueled rampage. Regretting it now though since it looks so cool/unique.
  2. Ok so I played the fuck out of this over the last 6 weeks or so and did all the quest arcs except for Paris, which I started but am very early in and kind of burned out on the game at this point. I ordered Ragnarok but really am not looking forward to it as the Asgard/Jotunheim arcs were my least favorite in Valhalla and the whole absorb their powers shit looks gimmicky to me and I didn't really use but a fraction of the abilities in Valhalla anyway. I almost never used the ranged ones and used the same 4 melee ones for the whole game. Anyway, I am going to start up Origins or Odyssey. For those who have played both, which order would you play them in? I am thinking Origins then Odyssey...it seems the slight consensus internet opinion is that Odyssey is the best of these three, and I would not want to play Valhalla, Odyssey and then Origins if Origins would then feel like a let down. Also, for me personally, I would be shocked if I like either of the other two as much as I liked Valhalla. I fucking loved it and haven't cracked out on a game like this since Ghost of Tsushima and then Witcher 3 before that.
  3. Yeah. I am generally not hard on my knives and I would hesitate to even call this prying, although technically sure it was. If I didn't have the knife on me I would have used a flat head or even a butter knife. As I was doing it, I was worried about the key fob plastic getting damaged, not the knife blade.
  4. I somehow broke off the tiniest little bit of the tip on a Benchmade Arcane (s90) popping off the back of a plastic car key fob while replacing the battery. Maddening.

    Whatcha reading?

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007GZKQTW/ Reading this series. Historic Viking fiction. Relatively short books that read pretty fast.
  6. https://knifesteelnerds.com/2021/10/19/knife-steels-rated-by-a-metallurgist-toughness-edge-retention-and-corrosion-resistance/ D2 is fine because its cheap and easily sharpened, that's its niche. But there are better options. As far as corrosion, unless you are literally on the water, just taking 30 seconds to oil your knife after you used it on anything remotely acidic will keep it from rusting.
  7. Benchmade Adamas maybe. Handle might be too thick for what you are looking for but I wouldn't call it clunky. Mini Adamas is great too but blade length is Bugout like.
  8. I ran Witcher 3 on a first gen i5. Graphics card at the time was I think a 970. It ran great at 1080P. Echo the Mass Effect rec. One of the greatest franchises in RPG gaming.
  9. I would definitely get the X over the S.
  10. Wasteland 3 is a hell of a game. Similar vibe to the new Fallouts but more like Fallout 1/2.
  11. I really like the Pintail in the Damascus/Wood but its just a little bit small for me. Same with the Odium, which I think looks even better but is even smaller.
  12. None of his shit crosses a line for me. I like to think I don't have one when it comes to comedy, but I imagine a lot of his Curb stuff is too much for some people.
  13. The last one was so good. I was never a giant fan of the franchise even though I got them all, I had never finished one before the last one. RDR is their best franchise. I'd love to see them do an RPG in a more traditional RPG setting. I'm sure it would be epic.
  14. So is this just the next Dark Souls game? Because put me in the camp that hated it. Puzzle game masquerading as an ARPG? Pass. Single player game with no pause? Haha. Fuck you.
  15. We watched the first two and I think its great. Never read the books, did see the Cruise movies. I'm surprised the main guy has not been in more stuff.
  16. This is a huge scam right?
  17. I ended up getting a Zotac 3060 Ti that released in December 2020 for $400 which now has an MSRP of $670 for $710 from some place called B&H Foto and Electronics. Yay...
  18. Ain't nobody playing no dong pong in here.
  19. Dickerson was on the Russillo podcast talking about aggy and said he was never going to go there because of the male cheerleaders.
  20. I thought this one kind of sucked.
  21. TBH it seems like everyone getting them must be using a bot. See my Best Buy anecdote. I literally was refreshing the page manually and going from sold out to add to cart in less than 3 seconds probably, and then adding it and still not getting one.
  22. Might be a thread for this show since its so old but I didn't see one with a casual search. We got Hulu recently and they have 9 seasons of this show with no ads. I was not expecting much as I despite virtually all broadcast television sitcoms but I'll be damned if this show is not funny as fuck. I think it probably helps that I was age 7-16 during the 80s. Also I love Jeff Garland from Curb and he is pretty good here too.
  23. Appreciate the offer, and its tempting because I don't see myself getting one without buying a brand new system and I don't want to do that mid way through the life cycle of the 3000 series. But I hate scalping so I can't.
  24. Yeah I am in SA so in person Microcenter is not an option for me. My online attempts continue to go poorly Newegg shuffle seems like a waste of time but it only takes like 2 minutes a day to do so I keep doing it. Yesterday one of the twitter accounts gave notice that Best Buy was going to be restocking. So I got on there and waited. They ended up starting around 11 a central or so and it lasted about 70 minutes. I was watching all of their 3060 Ti models. I got some added to my cart in literal seconds from them going back in stock and still came up empty.
  25. I don't like Cena and I didn't love the character in Suicide Squad. Show is pretty good though. Definitely has some of The Boys vibe.
