Oh!
Speaking of how gorgeous DCS is, this fan vid just dropped today.
There is a lot of talent in the sim’s community for cinematic content.

Somehow the Pickle Rick ship didn’t seem to sail for whoever decided the game needed this for their content.

My 2017 LEGO phase included acquiring the massive Technic bucket wheel excavator. She’s a beauty, I think my only issue is how the motor is by no means strong enough to handle all of the gearing involved in combination with a slip gear that will more likely slip than push all of the inner workings. I’ve gone around to…

For a moment, due to the thumbnail, I thought the ‘pile of shame’ was a reference to my forgotten yet blatantly out in the open mess of CD’s from my teens, which represents some of the poorest decisions in musical taste that I have traversed through.
There are 5 cradle of filth albums (*shudder*) and .. St Anger.. 

DCS has now been approximately an 8 year hobby for me with breaks in-between. It’s amazing how much it has evolved over the years.

Absolutely yes!
I still love flying the MI-8 despite the limited combat role, but getting a good Soviet-Era attack chopper is going to be a must-buy for me. KA-50 didn’t stick for me, even though it is pretty awesome to use.

Wow it’s really been that long hasn’t it? I just had a flashback to 2013's teaser. Cyberpunk flew off my radar until a few months before release but I completely forgot that last gen didn’t even exist let alone the current.

This is similar to my experience, it was pretty good in general. Also one of a handful of RPG games that I have actually gotten to an ending with before falling off the bandwagon and forgetting it (I’ve never seen the end of an Elder Scrolls game).
I think the bottom line for a lot of problems stem from that fact that…

“Keep your hands outside of the window”
and
“get out of the car now”

These two things are conflicting actions, and what, he reaches inside to open the door and they shoot? What kind of ‘training’ manual does this shit come from? This shit is literally set up to get people shot.

Darn I got kind of excited seeing the thumbnail; I forgot it’s a relatively closed testing phase. I’ve been craving a long swing at a diablo game but my last D3 binge was recent enough. I tried games like Torchlight and Path of Exile but for some reason they wouldn’t stick for me. I MAY give PoE a second chance this…

This reminds me of the story of the ship held in Beirut in 2013. The crew was held on board for a year, with the ship declared in poor sailing condition, the cargo being hazardous, and no governing or corporate bodies wanting to deal with it.
That cargo exploded last year.

I’ve outgrown trying to classify music down to a sub-genre but I can certainly believe there is a current version of myself who knows exactly what the genre is called without tossing it in the Pop or Rap category.
The person who introduced his work to me also watches Ru Paul’s Drag Race with me on weekends, I am blown…

I knew nothing of Lil Nas X and was recently introduced to Montero; it’s a work of art for music videos. I’ve taken up to looking further, there is some awesome stuff overall on these videos. Not my genre of music but I still liked every bit of what I’ve seen so far.

I’ve been getting bricks of the Beyond Meat plant based ‘meat’ and it has been phenomenal for sautéed mushrooms and swiss burgers. I have noticed that they soak up way too much butter (im not vegetarian, just reducing meat to 3 days per week) before I get the paddy in the pan. I’ll try this out, I feel like I am…

I’m paying utilities for the first time this year as most of the time it was covered in my rent and handled by the landlord. I was pretty surprised when I got a final notice of disconnection within a day of missing my first payment. Not sure if this had to do with the previous tenant but I was just waiting for the…

I wear shoes basically all day unless in the home of another person. Slippers are awful on my feet and generally need arch support. I do however have a pair of “indoor only” shoes. On the other hand I grew up in a family owned clothing factory, lived there, and it was generally hazardous to not wear shoes. Most of the…

I can’t believe the comparison was not made in the article. Nothing like a little single player Carcassone experience for the sake of making something pretty.

This happened to my family when I was a teen on the peak of us trying to claw out of post-bankruptcy. The one item we had left was an ‘84 BMW 318i, it sat in a designated parking spot, and at that moment in time was not running (fuel pumps, who woulda though!?) and we couldn’t afford to get it fixed just yet.
Prior to…

This looks like a funny way to identify new UV’s for when they likely cut off the top from the original model to keep them identical, and had to append a new UV set for the chopped version. If they used the same texture set for both, just seeing that UV’s were aligned over that part of the image would let know which…

Even if this required a very high-end machine, I’m still jealous because in order to get this in a non-game-engine animation pipeline we are looking at 20minutes per frame to render, not 30-60 frames per second. I’m sure there are newer tools out there but studios aren’t just buying up top of the line method for every…
