Swap Kyler for Justin Herbert. Who says no?

I believe I may be proven right about Kyler (derogatory)

Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit treating Deshaun Watson like any other QB, and nary a mention of two dozen sexual assault allegations as part of an already disgusting “redemption” arc they’ve spent all night trying to weave is really gross.

someone once said "We overestimate what we can do in a year, and underestimate what we can do in 10" and that really hits with this The fact that he kept a winning record the whole time he was building this is nuts

J.J. McCarthy and Skattebo on the same team might be interesting from a personalities perspective

Just like an NFL defense, she recognizes it as a fumble and recovers it. She is not fooled.

That Maye throw looked like how I fake throw the ball to my dog to make her think I threw it really far, but actually I dropped it behind me

Also, if you watch TV, you may have seen an AMEX (or maybe its Chase Sapphire) ad where someone goes "My upgrade? … See y‘all later" with some real twangy Alabama sauce on it. That’s Ella Langley.

What no one wants to admit in the Choosin‘ Texas discourse is that regardless of whether you’ve heard of it before, it’s just a catchy, fairly bog standard and innocuous top 40 pop-country song, not worth getting worked up over one way or another.

Haven't caught much of the Jets this season, except on Redzone... seems like they're having a normal one? Looked like a relatively competent offense?

As a society, I think we’ve forgotten about Tal Bachman’s 1999 hit “She’s So High”. Why is it not remembered alongside Mr. Brightside, Take Me Out, and the other 2000s alt rock classics? To what song are we belting at the top of our lungs to hit the high note when it comes on if not that one?

maybe this is the year the Vikings hit rock bottom and we get to draft a good QB

One nice thing about the Netflix NFL games is that you actually get them in high definition, rather than a very compressed 720p you get from some of the Sunday game carriers

Received my Game Bub today. Cool little device! Definitely some stuff that needs to be worked out, particularly with flashcarts, but overall really like it so far. Nice big display for GBA games is great. Hoping to hack a bit on the firmware/UI a bit

Hoping this lands on the MSP feed: who here has finished their basement (ideally CMU or other block foundation)? How did you insulate (joists & wall)? If you have drain tile, did you use a moisture barrier running into it?

I’m here to report that I have been engaged by jerry. The TV lawyer said I may be due some sort of compensation?

Hypothetically, could we issue an internet recall? Is it too late?

In case it’s not clear: the Father is Kirk (obviously), Son is Mendoza (can move), and the Holy Ghost is O’Connell (mustache, old school QB haircut)

I think it’s incredible that the Raiders have assembled the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost of Kirk Cousins as a quarterback room

Spreadsheets would make more sense to me if they were just database tables and didn’t need to do anything with those fiddly cell coordinates and could just write queries like a proper computerist

My best answer is Red Dead Redemption 2, sort of. I think the game is great but every time I play I get lulled by the music and horseback riding into taking a nap on the couch

The footprint for this is near where I’m hoping to get the board for GBTTY to the point where I may just end up targeting the GB-Link for the firmware

The opening and The Silent Cartographer were pretty much what I remember. They definitely did make The Library less of a slog, which was nice. The new cinematics were a nice touch.

Finished the Halo remake. It’s pretty good! It’s been a long time since I played the original so hard to compare it with what I remember but it felt pretty faithful. Definitely a bummer that there’s no multiplayer as I would’ve liked to play some Blood Gulch again

I could steal the drives for other stuff, but I don't really have anything that needs them right now. It's three Turing RK1s and a Jetson Nano, so nothing crazy powerful, but still _capable_

so, I have Turing Pi 2 cluster w/ Plex on it that I was using as a sort of using as NAS w/ Longhorn over a bunch of disks. I have since gotten a real NAS, and so I'm left w/ roughly 4TB of storage for k3s on a fairly empty cluster. What should I do with that space? (Still running clustered Plex)

Okay, I’m nearly to the end of this game, and it’s been great, but it also crashes far more often than any other PS5 game I’ve played. Talking whole PS5 shuts off, has to be unplugged/plugged back type of crash.
