    Ahh, mine are pretty great. My wife and I had to discuss who gets to go out this time and who has to stay home with the kids and I got dibs this time since she went out last time, earlier this month. My in-laws are actually way cooler and more interesting than my blood and I'm closer to them...

    Think I'm going to end-up having a lazy day today. Or at least, a less focused day. Got invited out last night by my In-Laws while my wife stayed home with the kids; we hit some happy hours eventually ending with some dinner around 830, which is very late for me. Between that, overeating and...

    Out of curiosity, why a new PSU? mATX and ITX both fit a regular old PSU without a problem. And I know you don't want to spend money, but you could also pick-up some cheap used hardware on eBay just to experiment with. But I'm a weirdo and love using old hardware for random stuff around the...

    Yup! Battletech Advanced 3062. It expands things pretty dramatically. You can drop more than a Lance (so far, up to 3 Lances for me), you can use tanks and other vehicles, VTOLs and Battle Armor, as well as adding heaps more mechs. Also other armor types, engine sizes, weapons, etc. It's the...

    Top of the motor, basically. Where all the air comes in and fuel gets injected. At least in this old style motor. My wife is baffled by how I work. I do lose things on occasion, but generally I just know where things are in my various piles. I actually find things can sometimes be slower when...

    I do actually need to get back to that. I last played in Early Access like two years ago or something and absolutely loved it, but I just haven't been back to it yet. Perhaps I should make it my next game... So what does that mean? You'll be getting paid to stream now? That's a career I should...

    I actually just used ChatGPT this afternoon to answer a question I could not locate the answer to on Google. It was correct on the diameter of a hose I needed, but quite wrong on the length of the hose. Which has generally been my experience when asking it questions. I had some success today...

    Still don't think I've won that fight. I got close one time and that was about it and there's never anyone to summon for help, so I went elsewhere until I level up some more and finally decide to play again.

    The space stuff posted earlier in the thread got me kind of excited, because I definitely knew what this was, just kind of forgot. I played a bit more here and now it's like, "Build a house!" And I had to just quit out. I have zero interest in that. Kind of regretting not spending the extra $4...

    Yeah, it seems like between the DLC and just looking at 2, nothing really changes. It has its charms for sure, but I think I'm happy enough with what I got that I don't need to play anymore. I got a chance to play No Mans Sky, played for 61 minutes according to Steam and it's...fine? I'm not...

    So I bought No Man's Sky this morning and installed it on my laptop and Deck. I have had zero time to actually even fire it up yet. Hopefully tonight if I'm not too tired, but I may just end up playing Battletech instead...

    Huh, that's pretty crazy. Do you have an OLED monitor? I do know they can be affected by burn in, but I thought it took several thousand hours.

    I finished Costume Quest this evening after dinner. Ended up putting in 5 hours to the original game and I'll probably just skip the DLC, as it's more of the same. Why this game has been on my must play list for over a decade, I don't know. It's alright. It's cute, got a good sense of humor...

    Ok, fine! I'll finally buy NMS! Geeze.

    Yeah, it's definitely requires some space to have this stuff, I'm pretty damned lucky in that regard! You can pause printing on either style of printer, though I never have, to be honest. Closest I've gotten is when my FDM printer detected it was running low on filament, so it paused itself...
