Most of the auto anti-fog products say right on them “don’t use on scratch resistant coatings”, which would mean I’d be nervous about recommending someone use them on their pricey prescription lenses without checking first.

Apparently the two things that divers and snorkelers like to use to stop their dive masks from fogging are alternately baby shampoo and their own spit. I’d probably pursue the first over the second, swish your glasses in a solution of it and then rinse once in clean water. Baby shampoo because if any residue is left…

I own an Index, I own this game, I’ve been begging for a VR mech game with actual content, but I don’t know if I have it in me to grind as much as I’ll need to from scratch to get one of these, especially with a tanning bed strapped to my eyes.

You didn’t miss it. Hostage Crisis, the season one closer, ends with an iris out on Cad Bane and his crew speeding across Coruscant with Ziro, but just after he detonates the bomb he planted to kill his hostages. Anakin saves them, but since he no longer has his hostages it makes sense that the Jedi would make one…

They post the new episodes at zero dark thirty AM, at least eastern time. Sometime between “up late Thursday” and “awake too early Friday”. Its been like that all season, have to avoid the internet to avoid spoilers. Mandalorian was the same way, I opened Tumblr to a gif of Baby Yoda reaching out of his little hover…

They already do. I pay an EV surcharge of 100 a year on my registration in Michigan.

I often have collision problems with the chairback or arms, so I was thinking of getting a VR stool. So like barstool height so I’m at a natural standing level and free to rotate.

This is the first Tesla that’s a real apples-to-apples comparison to my Bolt, and for 12k extra it has all the features I find myself missing on the day-to-day. Power liftgate, AWD, an extra 80 miles of range (though the new Bolt is only like 40 behind.)

So that's what the combat shrines do. Huh. I beat it on normal not knowing I could equip more shards and just kind of ignored the shrines and races.

There should have been a whole class for spaceships that look like pieces of earth transport that aren’t spaceships. If it’s an oceangoing ship, it’s a metaphor and they’re leaning in (Honor Harrington, Space Battleship Yamato, Treasure Planet). If it’s a car, it’s a parody (e.g. Spaceballs, Homeboys from Outer Space,…

I finished it this weekend in three short sessions after deleting my old savegame from years ago. What made me quit before was the escape sequences that it uses as a substitute for major boss battles. 90 seconds to two minutes of intense time-pressure platforming with no checkpoints and tight tolerances, it’s brutal. I…

Alpha, Rita’s escaped. Recruit a team of qualified middle-age people this time.

Will the highest difficulty level be “Foooooolllish samurai!”?

I mean really, he’s 78 and has been working in relatively high-paying positions most of that time, owned valuable real estate that appreciated a lot, and there’s some money in the family. I know union auto workers that were smart with their money and didn’t suffer any random setbacks like massive medical debt or being…

Well, they’re the same shape and weight that they ever were and have the smallest engines that they can get away with, there’s a critical lower limit they can’t cross. Meanwhile someone figured out how to get a huge engine to act like a smaller one some of the time in order to meet mileage targets on the pickups, and…

This is nice, but I wish she’d cosplayed one of the numerous female Mandalorians featured on the show.

I remember seeing a post once about the opposite of this. Battleships attending high school in Japan. “Oh no, Bismarck Chan is late again!” And the wall of the school is just demolished by the prow of the ship crashing through it with a piece of toast hanging from it. Some boy accidentally stumbles and presses his…

That’s why classic Muppet Babies is never going to make it to Disney Plus, too many old film clips, although we’ll see in ten or so years when Disney owns retroactive copyright on all filmed media ever created if that changes.

She’s not the only asian woman. By the usual US definition Mei counts, by the more global definition of asian Symmetra does too, and technically Siberia is in Asia but I’m not going to fight too hard for Zarya to count.

I find the lack of mirrors and a real dashboard more of a concern than the body styling. Mirrors are useful for a lot of reasons I don’t have to explain and superior to cameras in most ways. Touchscreens are also not “the best interface”, touchscreens are a compromise made, sacrificing the ability to operate by feel…
