    Landman

    I dig the show and due to the marvel of modern streaming I can just fast-forward through the Cooper scenes.
  2. Harmy weighed in on the 4K OG leaks for what MIGHT be (fingers crossed) being prepped for the 50th anniversary.
  3. I let a friend borrow my Secret Weapons and he let his kid brother play the game and he trashed the code wheel. I still don't talk to him to this day.
  4. In the not-too distant furure, Metallica fans, for example, are listening to new Metallica music and their Metallica fan friends are too, but the two aren't listening to the same songs. Neither group feels the need to listen to anything created by contemporary artists. At least one song in the consensus top 10 list of most popular Metallica songs is a song created several years after James Hetfield's death.

    3D Printing

    After fiddling with Anycubic stuff for a decade, I decided to switch teams and installed a Bambu H2D today. Right from the first print, that's currently still cooking, I can immediately tell I've lived a lie until now. Anyone want a Kobra Plus? It'll be sitting on the curb.
  6. Falcon 4.0 for life. Side note, I used to play Descent a lot, to the point where I had directory of other Descent players who belonged to a Descent game group, and we would PVP over dial-up. I had a Thrustmaster F-16 FLCS stick with the matching throttle and a pair of TM rudders. I DOMINATED that game group. I had that set-up because I was a huge fan of the Falcon series and there's no other way to play a dogfighting game than with a HOTAS. I still have the Falcon 3.0 and 4.0 big boxes in my office.
  7. What a cool theme. And a Micro Prose sighting!

    Ace Frehley - RIP

    I have Kiss Meets the Phantom on laserdisc. Have come dangerously close to mounting it on my wall over the years.
  9. Pretty much agree. And I can list about 10 BB pedals that deserve a spot on a pedal board. In 2025, weve nailed BB alts, you dont need a boutique solution. (But I love boutique solution culture for a lot of other reasons.)
  10. Way back in November of 2016 I put myself on the wait list for an Analogman King of Tone. My number cam up and I ordered it in February 2019. When you order and clear your name from the wait list, you have the option of going right back on and ordering another. I had forgotten I did this and last month Analog Mike let me know my name is at the top again, so I ordered another and it arrived last week. So that ridiculously long initial wait time of almost two and a half years has become almost seven. Bruh. CSB

    Ace Frehley - RIP

    RIP to the goat. Damn.
  12. Twilight Imperiumn, is like a Mt. Rushmore game but I've never played it. I'm not avoiding it, it just hasn't happened. This news might remedy that. (I'm not saying digital can replace the tactile experience of board gaming on a table, but at least I'll know better what people are talking about when they mention it. And they ALWAYS mention it.)
  13. I cannot get my head above water. A Kickstarter from 3+ years ago arrived out of nowehere, Kingdoms Forlorn. The box is ridiculous. Galactus for scale: Hopefully it will fill the hole left by Oathsworn...
  14. Four year update: System is still has basically the same foundation (Fanatec DD2, Inverted Clubsport pedals), but I've picked up a bunch of wheels (A body can't drive a truck with an F1 wheel, and a body shouldn't even want to try.), including the Bentley wheel with the gyroscopic self-levelling center display. The rig no longer runs on a laptop, but a dedicated Alienware i9 with an Nvidia 4080. I think I'm going to move over to 3 TVs instead of the Samsung G9 49" flanked by 2 1440 27s. Three like TVs sets up much easier across more games than this current setup with its odd dimensions. Also, American Truck Simulator is the tits. Brother-in-law came over to check it out:
  15. Some recent plays: Senjutsu: Battle for Japan is a quick little PVP game set in medival Japan, a theme right up my alley. (I can't recall if I've posted this one.) More Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Seconc Era. This one is weird - I can't tell if it's really good or if it's great. Some clunk, as you get with every Chp Theory Games production, but the high points are so damn high... SETI is a game fo the year candidate, imo. I added a little LED light to the sun because of course. Another game we keep going back to: Retun to Dark Tower. I STILL haven't played it with the latest expansion. I wonder what that means... Dark Quarter is a Chronicles of Crime-type whodunit with excellent app integration. The player characters here are more developed than CoC, which isn't saying much, and has more mysticism and voodoo in the stories. Not much replayability, but that's fine. I have officially run out of room. Next step is to do like Tokyo and build up.
