i might have that exact tv, or something close to it, and at almost exactly the same price

Video quality is great, speakers are bad but usable (you're supposed to have external speakers separately anyway). I think this is the right price point to go for, before you start hitting diminishing returns

it's weird that every modern television comes with a microphone and an aggressive alexa equivalent, though.

here's my advice for being in a new place, if you want friends. just slow down, be friendly, and try to listen to people. classmates, people at the store, whatever. you don't need to prove you're interesting- being interested is enough. agree to tag along and see what they're about. you can decide you don't like them later

now is a weird time, though. not sure how it'll work in covid times

Recap
He was a huge CoD youtuber 10 years ago.
Had an internet documentary about him.
Stopped youtube, joined Activision and made CoD games.
Left Activision and restarted his persona on Twitch
Cheated on his wife and left twitch for about a half a year
Came back, set Twitch records with viewer count.

Now something happened.
People think this is Twitch finding out that he and others were going to start their own streaming service and dumped him immediately. But who knows yet.
how can you leave out the part where he was temporarily banned from twitch because he live streamed kids in a public restroom?!? I feel like that adds a lot of depth to the story.

AKA banananor loses all of his money

Being trapped in my apartment, and fortunate enough to have a job that can support a remote lifestyle, I've realized that not being able to go out and drink with friends has left me with a lot of excess time and a little bit of extra money.

That's made me burned out on video games, and I'm somehow prepared to pursue my childhood impossible goal of playing (mostly painting) warhammer figures. I tested the waters by painting the below

https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Nighthaunt-Grimghast-Reapers-2018

And, surprisingly, I found it super fun. So far, it's justified the cost of paints, inks, palettes, cutting tools, glues, fake earth, varnish, and so on. And now, looking at the cost of entire armies, I'm even trying to gauge the pros and cons of 3d printers.

Anybody have experience in this field? Sigmar, Warhammer, and any competitors are interesting to me

i'll bite the bait.

i was going to put 2, and after some thought downgraded it to 1

I originally gave Rise of Skywalker some credit for cobbling together the broken vase of milk that was the sequel trilogy, but as a capstone for the trilogy of trilogies it's abysmal.

The basic premise and plot doesn't bother me, but the movie paints with such broad and vague strokes that nothing carries any weight, and the entire film feels obligatory when it should be exciting.

At this point, I wouldn't mind if we wiped the canon again. Can we go back to the dumb-as-hell-but-still-entertaining Thrawn timeline? Find a way to keep all of the actors somehow to make sure it's not out of spite
