I also have had issues with catbox that I could not figure out. I believe it's DNS related and being blocked by the one I use. I tried setting up a local entry on my firewall but that had limited success as well probably due to the multiple IPs used.

My body reacted in the same spot he fell. I hate when that happens.

Last game I can recall buying for PC and physical was Farcry. I never had to many either but the rest were all from the 90s like diablo, and command and conquer red alert. It all stopped when half life 2 dropped which was basically when steam became what it is now and that was 2004.

Seriously. Looks like they must battle to win the job to do the roof lol.

Absolutely... it was like 98 here today and brutal.

No offense, but what are you installing it on? One of the things I oversee at my job is imaging. Installing fresh windows on any of our hardware is between 7 and 15 minutes total. Since windows 10 I also haven't seen any need for additional drivers either unless you have something uncommon or want to replace one. Not trying to defend Windows, I just can't understand how everyone always has the worst problems imaginable with it.

I agreed with you up until more expensive games, shittier graphics and performance. For the price of the console when it released it was a solid choice and was hard to buy a PC at the same price point that offered better performance. 6 years later and this holds true even more now than it did before. Steam box is apparently around the same performance with some things better and some things worse but at over $500 more for the one. Ps5 really holds its value for the price for what you get. I do wonder if that will hold true for the ps6 though (not holding my breath).

"Cyclosporiasis is caused by eating food or drinking water contaminated by feces containing the parasite. Historically, people would acquire it outside the United States.

However, of the 190 cases reported to public health authorities between the start of May and the middle of June, 145 involve someone who hasn't traveled beyond US borders in the last couple of weeks."

Just say it, the US is a shithole country now so of course we are starting to get awful diseases locally.

He doesn't care, he took the money and gave it out already so the jokes on us.

Is the risk really that high? I am normally someone who thinks twice about something like this. So far I have survived! Yolo for real.

The other one my wife brought to my attention that I never thought of before her was Thanksgiving dinner with the turkey and it being stuffed with stuffing. She won't touch it and we make a 2nd no filled turkey batch just for her. Is it really a problem though! No way ill give that up either, there is nothing better.

It's always hilarious when companies make such incredible burn videos only for them to reverse and become the joke.

 

Everyone knows one of the best things NJ has to offer is homemade bagels. I was curious what everyone's best bagel spot is. A few years ago, I saw this asked on the other site, and I saw some great suggestions.

I bring it up because today I actually got to try the one that was mentioned the most, and im happy to say it did not disappoint. The name is Bagel Train, and technically, it's in NY but only about 30 seconds over the border. This one may have taken 1st place for me. Before this, my favorite was Hot Bagels in Fairlawn. Has anyone else got some suggestions for the best of the best?

Our 11 year old dog Domino just passed early this morning. She was the world to our family. Sweetest dog I have ever known, and as this was my first pet, I have to say this is an extremely hard day. Here is a pic of her several months ago giving us love. I only hope we gave her a great life.

The Turner Doomsday Video is the internal title of an apocalypticism video intended to be broadcast by CNN at the end of the world. The video, created at the direction of CNN founder Ted Turner before the network's 1980 launch, is a performance of the Christian hymn "Nearer, My God, To Thee" performed by multiple members of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine bands.

It was never seen by the public until it was leaked in 2015 by a former intern.

My favorite comfort food pot roast. Let it cook all day yesterday on low heat. Reminds me of my childhood, of course it's never as good.

RIP Ratebeer (beerconnoisseur.com)
 

I'm sure many here haven't dealt with Ratebeer, but it was the OG site to use along with beer advocate back in the late 2000's. A few of my friends were hooked, and it got me onboard. We joined local communities, met up with others for local beer events, and setup tastings with everyone. Made a lot of good friends and tried the best beers in the world because of the site and although I drifted from the hobby well over a decade now it still was a big influence for me and even the modern equivalents that exist today. Just wanted to put this here since it was definitely a part of beer history that should be remembered.
