Ornery and Hornery posted:My fave social media trend is content creators doing DIYs or remodeling projects where they brag about how little it cost and you the viewer can do it too!!! Only $120 in materials!!! <shocked YouTube face> It's similar to those cooking videos of "you can make this FEAST for only TEN dollars!" and once they start running through the list of ingredients you realize that you don't have any of it and to assemble that list would cost you as much (if not more) as your average weekly grocery bill. Oh sure chef, I just have some saffron sitting around the house that I haven't used yet, I mean, who doesn't

My mom has had a tiny jar of Saffron in her pantry for years, it’d prolly turn to dust if she tried to take it out but guess she heard some time in the 90s that it was a must have.

Apropos of nothing, any medical goons know anything about eyesight and possible diabetic retinopathy? I was diagnosed as diabetic in December 2022, and while I am not currently on insulin (I very closely manage my blood glucose, and I was put back on metformin as opposed to insulin, and right now I only weigh 171 pounds from my biggest at 289 a while back), but for the past two or three months, I've been having vision issues and needing to take my glasses off to read fine print, even when trying to read something on my phone, or when doing a crossword in the paper. I'm only 39, but is it time to go back to Shopko Optical and possibly talk with the doc about bifocals / transition lenses? Before someone comes in to snark at me and say "dur hur don't ask for medical advice on a dead gay forum," I have appointments scheduled at the diabetes clinic, the nephrology clinic and with my cardiologist. Just wondering what to expect moving forward.

I still hold the stance that Season 2 of True Detective had the unfortunate luck of following a masterpiece that was Season 1. Season 3 was an improvement but honestly I don't remember much of it just like Detective Wayne Hays.

Yeah I rewatched season 2 a few years ago and it’s a lot better than I remembered after my initial watch. I found it useful when you can go from episode to episode rather than waiting a week. The main issues to me for season 2:

The first episode of Season 4 was interesting enough for me to want to watch it. I do not think anything actually happened in episode 2, you could go straight to episode 3 and not really notice. I fell asleep during it, but then rewatched it once I woke up.

I decided to play some CIV 3 again just for fun and I forgot how annoying the early game is. The computer players just load up on military units and come after you. Pretty much have to spend all your time building up your military otherwise you get run over by a stack of 50 archers.

He was trying to be friendly but I was like, nah, Manifest Destiny and you took my hut, bitch, so I flexed and eventually having two capitals that early spiraled me out of control. I love these games. Never played Civ 3 though. I went from Test of Time to Civ 5. Probably not gonna play Civ6 either. 3 DONG HORSE fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Jan 25, 2024 |

Pretty much have to spend all your time building up your military otherwise you get run over by a stack of 50 archers. I bounced off Civs 4 and 5 because of the new one-unit-per-hex play mechanic, which didn't really feel good for me. But the earlier pattern was perfected in Civ IV, which is just a much, much better game than III. You still can have some insane leaders (loving Ghandi lol) but the mechanics are more reasonable, the features are more polished, and it's stood the test of time. I used to absorb all the info on CivFanatics and play at a pretty high level - like, I could defeat the game on its second-to-hardest setting, I forget what it's called. The first few turns are still critical, knowing exactly what you need to do for the tiles you have next to your city, etc. to get a great start, but even if you aren't playing like that, you can do OK and there's victory conditions that don't require you to stomp your neighbors. Anyway that site is a fantastic resource for every edition of Civ, if you like to do homework to get better at your leisure activities. https://www.civfanatics.com/

My lasting memory of Civ2 is getting a copy of it for free because a bunch of friends and I booked like three hours at the old BattleTech Center at North Pier in Chicago. I must have been ... let's see, MechWarrior 2 came out in 1995, so this must have been 1996 or so? I would have been 11 or 12.
