War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026JD and Grant are both wonderful. I’m a Cubs fan so I’m biased toward JD, but I also watch a ton of SD games because Orsillo and Grant are so good together. Benetti is the best in the business, but Orsillo is 1a. For my money there isn’t a better color guy than JD. 020

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I love Votto, but he’s nails on a chalkboard as a broadcaster for me. Some guys just don’t got “it,” and he’s one of them. Kruk is objectively worse than Votto at just about everything in life, but I could listen to his reedy voice tell stories of the tacos he’s eaten for hours. 000

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I do enjoy that the game recap you chose to highlight is the one you got the score wrong in. That said we don’t subscribe for the accuracy, we subscribe for the _vibes_. 020
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 20/09/2026One of my all-time bands. I’ve heard the complaint that all their songs sound the same. They do. They all sound awesome. 011
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 20/09/2026“Toyota Home Run Replay” banner completely obscuring the home run it’s replaying. Great job all around guys. 000

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 16/09/2026They weren’t really fighting games per se. They were more “Final Fight”-style beat-‘em-up’s, walking from left to right beating on guys as you progressed through the level. As a teen I was convinced they were the peak of the video game form. 100
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Definitely ‘87 or ‘89 for me. TMNT and Double Dragon probably hold my personal record for most quarters wasted. 110
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 16/09/2026@davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social I haven’t even finished the article yet but I have to let you know that “super anemia” made me laugh until the dog came to make sure I was okay. 100
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 16/09/2026See, the Subaru + Focus RS or Fiesta ST is really the way to go, if you have the space for it. It’s still a sacrilege to me that you haven’t been able to buy a reasonable F150 with a stick since the Clinton administration. 010
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Yeah. The last manual I owned was a 1987 S-10. I rode motorcycles for another 10 years and counted those as manuals, but I also haven’t had a bike in close to a decade at this point. I love rowing my own gears too, but we’re in the minority. 010

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 12/09/2026So much more impressive! Outfield throws are one more reason to love the game, let ‘em eat! 011
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Why are all broadcasts so bad at showing outfield throws? Completely ruins the highlight because you can’t actually see the throw! 180
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I had to stop around “The Teeth of The Tiger.” I have gone back and rented The Hunt for Red October and Patriot Games audiobooks from the library, and I still got a kick out of them. If you’re looking for other spy books I like the Gabriel Allon series, the narrator does a great job on those. 000
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 02/09/2026In retrospect those books are very problematic. Like, v e r y problematic. But my god did my 17yo self love them. 100
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Makes sense. The only hobby I have is photography, and all my RAWs live on the server. So really no reason to connect it to the world. 000
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 01/09/2026That’s basically the schedule I’ve been on with repurposed PCs (and HDDs), so that makes me feel better about longevity. My concern was that NAS makers would churn user base by EOLing OS updates prematurely, vs being able to run BSD more or less eternally. Thanks for the replies, appreciate it! 100

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Great idea. I’m in Sacramento so I’m getting bled dry on power anyway while trying to keep my house cool. One concern: I’m already tired of being on the tech upgrade treadmill for phone/tablet/etc and not sure I’m ready to add a NAS to that list. How long do you usually go before upgrading? Thx! 100
War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Does anyone out there have strong opinions on going with a NAS vs repurposing an old machine as file server? Done the latter for 20+ yrs. Current box is getting old & need to either upgrade with new guts or go with a Synology, etc. Is making the change worth it? @willsmith.fun @tommerritt.com 100

War2D2 @war2d2.bsky.social · 28/08/2026I loved watching him play but god as my witness I’d rather sit through 1990s clips of Hawk Harrelson than listen to another word out his mouth. 000
