She has a video on the lore of some church’s series of musical theater performances. Highly recommend

I’ve carried various 6-10’ pipes and poles sticking out the passenger seat of my Miata. Infinite vertical space! lol

6 of the fingers
I don’t get that term in this context. What’s a “finger” here?

Also, the color doesn’t make that much of a difference. Like a percentage you can count on one hand. Much more significant gains can be had from ridge vents and other ways of getting the heat out of the attic, and insulation to keep that heat from going into the house.
At least according to my acquaintance in the roofing industry, and obvs this is regarding typical US/Canada SFHs

Yeah I’ve had great experiences with amazon basics hoodies and phone cables
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 4 Isn't Next For Larian; Something Bigger Is Coming | Spot On | Gamespot 8 months ago:
I’m gonna disagree with that other commenter. I’d recommend starting with DOS2 before 1. DOS2 is much more refined and generally less annoying to play. And they’re separate stories, so nothing in 2 would spoil the experience of 1

Yeah me and my buddy have been going back and forth between easiest mode and one notch up. Still a fun experience either way! Just a matter of if we want a more strategic challenge vs. being pew pew gods

Doesn’t look like they’re actually selling this wheel. Looks like it was just made for this video

Oh I didn’t know there were leagues!
I usually just jump into 3v3 competitive for a couple matches at the end of a night, but last week I did a tournament. Made it all the way to the semifinals! Which is way further than I expected to lol

Eh, it looks like it could be 90 minutes of fun. Hard to judge based on a trailer

Maybe the Cheers finale, in 1993
- Comment on New ‘Star Trek’ Movie in the Works at Paramount from ‘Andor’ Director 10 months ago:
Hopefully after they saw what Haynes could do with a non-Skywalker/Palpatine Star Wars show, they’ll let him make a non-Kirk/Picard/Spock Star Trek movie. I’m ready for that
- Comment on Need help getting my dad to play Baldur's Gate 3 11 months ago:
Email GOG and ask them whether their version of BG3 works on Mac? If it ends up not working, you have a solid case for a refund
I know Steam would be ideal, but sometimes you just have to meet somebody where they are

Blue Man show left during/after the pandemic. It’s mostly empty now
- Comment on The Steam Deck OLED feels like a radiant new dawn for portable play 11 months ago:
Yeah I have a usb dock with HDMI plugged into my TV, and an old Xbox One controller paired to the Deck. Basically works the same as a docked Switch
- Comment on Superb survival city-builder Against the Storm is finally finished and released 11 months ago:
Ok, yeah I’ve tried trackpadding other games on the Deck and it was an unenjoyable experience for me. Maybe I’ll try to push through again with this game
- Comment on Superb survival city-builder Against the Storm is finally finished and released 11 months ago:
Yeah I’ve tried using the Deck’s trackpads in games. I’m ok with it for an occasional menu, but I haven’t been able to enjoy it enough to use it as a primary gaming input device
- Comment on Review: Analogue Duo 11 months ago:
Ok I wasn’t try to make a judgement about the price. I’m not really in the market for something like this. I was just curious, and figured others would be too.
- Comment on [Weekly thread] What have you been watching lately? 11 months ago:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Disturbance_in_the_Force
Just saw “A Disturbance in the Force”, a documentary about the Star Wars Holiday Special. I was already familiar with it—I’d seen the special, the special with MST3k (or RiffTrax?) commentary, and IIRC some documentary on it a decade ago.
This one was pretty good. Lots of stuff I already knew, but still plenty new background info, more context on the TV scene in the 70s, and new interviews with some of the creators and modern pop critics.
For sure worth a watch if you’re into some coke-fueled Star Wars nonsense
- Comment on Superb survival city-builder Against the Storm is finally finished and released 11 months ago:
According to the Steam page, it does not have controller support.
I’m waiting for that too, so I can play on the Deck or on the couch

- Comment on 'Shadow and Bone' canceled after 2 seasons, spinoff also scrapped 11 months ago:
If you’re looking for a better show in this genre, check out His Dark Materials. It’s not as good as early GoT, and the middle of each season drags some, but overall I’d say it’s worth the watch
