Yeah it’s not the best option. But it did popularize the form factor

I think most PowerA controllers don’t have gyro or NFC. PowerA is what you’re most likely to find as a 3rd party controller.

On the other hand, you can play with your hands in completely different locations which is nice for being lazy on a couch.

Has this changed? It used to be that sexting was explicitly just referring to sending nudes and the surrounding horny conversation. If you’re right, the definition has broadened to include flirting or locker room humor.

What should really happen is Dr Disrespect should release the DMs (after redacting any details of the minor) so we can stop speculating about how bad this is.

Liquid IV. I’ll bring a few packets if I know I’m going to be sweating. It’s also great for a hangover.

I need to leave this thread. Interstellar is my favorite movie of all time.

In the recent Ferrari movie, there’s a scene with one of the legendary racing drivers. He’s in the lead at the big race and he just needs to bring it home for the win. He’s got a big smile, the shots are serene, the music is swelling. Then suddenly, he wrecks super violently and crashes into a crowd of people. I absolutely lost it. I was the only one.

In college, we used to go to the top of parking garages to smoke weed at night. This kinda looks like a parking garage.

If you’re trying to play with your son, Smash Ultimate is good. It also has a good amount of single-player content.

I could not disagree more about Contact. I read the book first. I found it to be an incredibly realistic depiction of what contact with alien life might look like. The clashing of world powers, science, and religion are central themes. The movie slimmed down the story as you would expect, but they completely changed the message at the end. The book ends with Ellie finding actual evidence for some divine being which eliminates her conflict with faith. The world governments had already been forced to cooperate much more. Now with the final conflict resolved, it’s implied that humanity can move forward in a more unified direction. The movie has her just believe in God, more or less. The Christians were right…

Then, the sequels were so consistently mediocre that the original was more or less erased from history.

I will not have you slander Battlefield Vietnam like this. I spent countless hours on a “heliwars” server after school as a kid.

I heard the three basic rules from somewhere:

1. Always use the right tool for the job
2. A hammer is always the right tool
3. Every tool is a hammer

In car circles, Miata owners often say that Miata stands for “Miata Is Always The Answer”

I think the 10 commandments are in Exodus which is also one of the books where God says exactly how you should own slaves. So that would be a weird one.

in the USA atleast, crime is increasing

Source? I’m pretty sure there was an uptick during the pandemic but then it went down again.

When she finally starts to get it, that’s when Santa becomes real.

I’m this way with body wash. However with deodorant, I use a Japanese deodorant. I lived in Japan for a while, got used to it, and now American deodorants kind of hurt. I import it now. When I was working for a Japanese company, I’d have colleagues bring big boxes of it to re-up.

I’ll check him out for sure. I really like precision engineering so anything in that vein has my attention. Nice username btw.

Rob Renzetti is about precision machining in a small shop environment. You can definitely tell he’s a precision machinist first and YouTuber second, which I like. He goes into detail on his thought process and execution for achieving extreme tolerances on parts.

Dan Gelbart is a very successful business man who made his fortune inventing new machines and building them. He now has a money-is-no-object workshop. His “building prototypes” series is a must watch for creators. The video on flexures blew my mind. He shows how to create complex, accurate machines with simple tools quickly.

Both of these guys don’t upload often. When they do, I drop what I’m doing and put my full attention into it.
