  1. Past hour
  2. There was a video I saw that basically pointed out the biggest issue with the Star Wars area of Disneyland: no movement or any sort of kinetic energy in the area. No rotating dishes, no steam hissing off the Falcon, no droids even just moving their heads about. No piped-in sounds of fighters or ships buzzing by or taking off/landing. It’s just a static, stationary prop set. It doesn’t feel alive or lived in. Yes, I get it costs more to add moving parts and such. But after taking pictures by the various stationary fighters and the Falcon and riding the two rides, what else is there to do? And now Rise of the Resistance is gonna be down for awhile. 🫤 Compare that to the Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios. It’s a smaller area, but there’s more to do, explore, and mess with.
  3. Hardware Unboxed posted a community note on the RTX 5070 Ti. https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxKba8DqK5LE-KesvtVvPUeSeq65r1ONGK TLDR; echos what I said. 5070 Ti and 5060 Ti 16 GB production has been reduced to a trickle where one could consider it EOL. Nvidia hasn't EOL'd any RTX 50-series, only reduced and prioritized GPU and VRAM component shipments, namely focusing on the 5060/Ti 8GB, 5070, 5080 and 5090 at the expense of the 5070 Ti and 5060Ti 16 GB. Asus doesn't know when it will receive a shipment of 5070 Ti parts nor are they expecting any components for those 2 models any time soon.
  4. I truly hope that they also update Disney World in the same manner. And they can start by putting the ROUND dish on top of the Falcon.
  5. There is that well-known illustration of both in Soldier one behind the other, but now I don't think I'll look at both joined-up Fighters the same way again.
  6. This is a very nice collection you had. Some stuff I've never seen before, interesting.
  7. Today
  8. Oh yeah, it's gonna be wild when the fandom's culture warriors arrive late to the realization that nothing's gonna change because Kathleen Kennedy was the company's president not someone who was heavily involved in the day-to-day creative work. 😜😆 I wonder who the new scapegoat will be? If it's Dave Filoni, at least they'll be blaming someone deserving for once.
  9. If I was a cheesehead, I'd be all over this thing. If ever a red one is released with gold trim, it just might make the 49er fan in me fork out the cash. Takara must have a lot of faith in the first release.
  10. They're really small so shipping shouldn't be too bad... Probably like a hi metal toy.
  11. Finally!! Kathleen Kennedy Leaves Lucasfilm After 14 Years, Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan Named New Star Wars Overlords https://www.ign.com/articles/kathleen-kennedy-leaves-lucasfilm-after-14-years-dave-filoni-and-lynwen-brennan-named-new-star-wars-overlords
  12. I like Tomb Raider but I can think of many games that deserve a series or movie too. For starters: Deus Ex Battlefield Homeworld Crysis Half-Life Starcraft Any classic Sierra game (Space Quest, Kings Quest, etc) Yes, some are already with a Hollywood studio but they've gone nowhere whereas there has been plenty of Tomb Raider media already.
  13. I was hoping for a sequel to Vikander's movie, but I'll take this too!
  14. It is a very small fighter.
  15. @$100 US, it's cheap enough to consider. But the shipping may be a deal breaker.. Soldier mode is acceptable, with some mods. Fighter mode is a travesty. Diver mode is kinda ok..kinda..
  16. Well, I may have potentially experienced something like that, but I followed Jenius' guidance to first raise the stabilizer out of the arm before orienting the closed fist palm forward. I fit like a glove and there were subsequently no issues with that stabilizer causing damage. BUT, I'm glad you mentioned it (I'm so terribly sorry that that happened and I'm glad you got a replacement hand), as it's a very relevant cautionary tale, one I'll most certainly be mindful of going forward. I'm not sure how much longer I'll keep my Legioss in fighter, as it's shoehorned into my crowded Detolf. It just barely fits in armo-soldier mode, so I had to feng shui some stuff to make the fighter fit so I could close the door. After going through the transformation last night, taking my time, I'm less apprehensive of the process and more appreciative of all the features that Sentinel incorporated in such a small yet complex toy. It's a thing of beauty, and it only whets my appetite for the much larger, even more feature-packed Pose+.
  17. Yesterday
  18. Those look like Macross The Ride inspired paint schemes. More of a civilian flavor.
  19. I just rewatched it with my son, it was fun. Less of a grind than Dougram (which I also enjoy). It has some pacing issues but overall, I'm still a big fan.
  20. I see even cats can enjoy a great anime.
  21. Sidetracking from the GPU Ram story: My laptop showed up: no cosmetic issues got it for $562 which is a little bit more than $392 plus tax, i paid for the yoga. Decent battery life unplugged w/ mux switch on. here’s the specs and review: one last pic of the YOGA before it goes back. (the trackpad works flawlessly since reseating the cable but i dont need two laptops and rather have an rtx 4070 mobile)
  22. Guess you never saw that episode of Brickleberry where the park rangers had to rescue the lil bear from the local perv
  23. I was bored with the first couple episodes of the first season and was gonna give it up completely, but one of our cats really loves watching the show. He’s more calm and easy going than most and was born with a bit of a respiratory issue that makes him start hacking if he gets too wild, so he stays calm and takes things easy and I think that something about the mostly slow pace and pretty colors keeps his attention. He will just stare at the screen for whole episodes, so I guess I’m gonna be stuck through more of this show.that’s Mr. Squeaky enjoying his favorite show Frieren on one of his favorite spots that has been ripped to shreds by constant clawing
