Thanks. Took a closer look at the reviews and they’re pretty consistent with regards to the upper lip area. Sounds like the spacing of the rotaries is too much to properly cover the area. Back to the drawing board!

Yeah, I’ve always had battery anxiety. Really wish we’d go back to batteries that were easily replaceable by the consumer. 🙁

Ugh.…[Read more]

Thanks! Taking a look at them now, this one looks like a good middle of the road option?

Great!

I really miss games hosting the leaderboards on an easily accessible site. 🙁 Granted, that hasn’t been much of a thing in a long time but I still miss it! It was fun to check in and see how you were doing compared to everyone else throughout the day.…[Read more]

Finally got around to seeing The Stepford Wives the other day. While it wasn’t bad, it wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. Found it a bit bland for some reason or other.

Yeah, not a fan of subtitles. Over here, it was dubbed but they hadn’t bothered to change any of the credits to english. 😛

Probably hasn’t aged well, either. Still on the list, though! Almost watched it a few weeks ago but watched something else. 😛

Do like Gibson’s writing. He even did an episode of the X-Files!

Saw this low profile sci-fi…[Read more]

Saw The Lift yesterday and that was pretty fun, if somewhat cheesy. In one scene, the elevators play hide and seek with a girl before eating her teddy bear. 😛

How do they handle the upper lip? They’re not too large, are they? My only experience is with foil razors 🙂

Looks like most electric razors these days are cordless. Not too worried about battery capacity as they’ll only be used for a brief time daily so it’ll be a long time before the batteries are no longer able to hold a charge. Sadly, it does…[Read more]

Huh, no device loading is pretty weird. Had that happen over here a couple of months ago but it cleared itself up after a few microcode and kernel updates (even weirder as that shouldn’t have affected the UEFI). Does everything still work in the OS itself?

Here’s an interesting idea for an experiment:

Plug a generative AI extension into a blog and set it to output articles based on random input (source yet to be thought of) and set it to run periodically, mimicking ab actual writer. The idea would be to see how weird things get over time. 😛

Haven’t tried it on mine yet. I really should as I’ve had it for a year now. 😛

Do have a few programs that take advantage of it, such as Hogwarts Legacy, so it may be worth giving it a whirl. 🙂

For Oblivion, make sure you don’t forget that you can’t use HDR with another setting (been so long that I can’t remember the conflict). You need to…[Read more]

Good to see that the community is trying to take it over. I wonder if they’ll get permission to continue printing it? I do remember it from when it was active but not very well. Mostly, I remember seeing the product on store shelves.

WotC recently integrated LotR into MTG with great success. Perhaps that will help give it a future?

Thanks. Will keep that in mind! 🙂

I suppose I could also replace the keycaps periodically but that’d get kind of annoying 😛

Went ahead and retired the three Dell monitors last year. Still have them in the closet but I don’t use them now as the panels had some color issues. Kind of miss 16:10 though.

Yeah, integrated drivers can sometimes be…[Read more]

Yep, remember Merlin. Only caught the first couple of episodes, though, before school got in the way. Really need to rewatch it in full at some point. Interesting that they named the Lady of the Lake Freya. Freyja. Freyja was the Nordic deity of sex and foresight.

Saw The Nesting yesterday. As far as ghost stories go, it wasn’t bad but it also…[Read more]

What’t the best way to clean gunk and grime up from a keyboard? Due to my oily hands, things around the home get a bit grimy due to the dirt they pick up 🙁

After a year, the biggest complaint I have with the monitor I got is that its stand is too tall and it has limited ability to lower the screen. Minor thing and easily fixed (I have a spare…[Read more]

Just finished reading Redshirts and it’s a brilliant piece of meta-fiction. Highly recommended if you enjoy riffing on writing flaws (I do enjoy bad movies, after all). 🙂

Did some basic formatting of the first post. Still need to organize things by games and supply links to rule books, home pages, store locators, and the like but it’s progress!

Okay, started adding some links to the fan formats. The post is beginning to get enough content to warrant proper formatting so I’ll put that on the to-do list 🙂

Windows at the moment. May try out gaming support on Linux at some point.

Yep, used to enjoy seeing their NMS posts over there. Starfield is on the wishlist but, from what I gather, it’s a completely different type of game. I’m sure I’ll try it out eventually 😛

Great!

You should probably go ahead and play it. A lot of folks over here rave…[Read more]

Trying to decide on a new electric razor is a bit of a pain. My old one from Philips broke after less than a year due to a lot of plastic in the construction (the foil got stuck in an angled position so was no longer safe). Too many options with too many price points. Looked online at reviews and the reviews lean towards the pricier models. 🙁

Started a new game in NMS (I really need to stay on a single game for more than a few weeks :P) and started in a system with an Earth-like planet. Going to explore it soon now that I need to return to the system and will likely toss a base on it. In another system, there’s a very mountainous desert world that I quite like the aesthetics of. I’ll…[Read more]

Yep, Scalzi does use some colorful language. Part of what gives his books their charm! 😀

Yeah, Star Wars reviews are all over the map. That’s not even taking into account the changes made with each subsequent release. Han shot first!

Then there’s the debate whether or not Star Wars is science fiction or space opera. Space opera is a subgenre of…[Read more]
