Newsome is certainly a hypocrite, and I agree with Grommie on the inequity across the counties, but California as a whole has still done pretty well over the course of the pandemic. I'd say the initial response was actually pretty solid across the board, local and state, while the recent stuff has been much more hit and miss. Still better than a good percentage of other states, though. So yeah, not ready to uproot our government quite yet. Particularly given how bad it went last time.

Cyberpunk 2077
Again, I am really enjoying the world they have created. It may be buggy or whatever, but it is clearly a classic for me, and I can see myself going back and playing it more than once.

I have been going around and turning all of the radios in the game to classic jazz.

It seems strange that Amazon would need to use that model. I would assume the vast majority of Prime members are in it for much more than the limited content they create. I mean, the free shipping alone tends to cover the costs for myself. I do get that it allows them to generate buzz about a show over a longer window of time.

If you ignore the desperate for attention poster, they will go away... And create an alt. account until that one gets played out as well. I am thoroughly enjoying my time living in Night City. I just beat up some twins. Err...Conjoined personalities... I'm having a lot of fun driving around on my motorbike too. They did a good on the road design. It isn't quite GTA, but for a real RPG, it is excellent.

I think some people overestimate the cultural impact of GamerGate.

As I've seen bandied about, Mandalorian kinda fits that space western niche that Firefly was so unique in. Ah, who am I kidding? If they brought back Mal and Jane I'd be happy as a clam.

The Sopranos never stopped being cool. You need to start watching Kevin Spacey stuff to meet the criteria. 😝

Yeah, they only lit stuff on fire in FRONT of the church. Totally reasonable behavior. Way to put KP in his place, Skarpie.

What you've done today - One Life to Live
I helped my daughter finish the Christmasification of her room this weekend. Over Thanksgiving we had painted it and she put up LED lights, then Saturday we put shelves up, and now the we have the train running. I treated myself to a laser level to get those shelves done, and it came out pretty well. Here is a video of it, hope it works: https://imgur.com/a/iUmK4EX

Fresh fish is kinda pricey though.

General movie thread!!!!
Quentin Tarantino films are the only ones that I really feel differently about when I watch them in the theatre. Most stuff plays fine on my TV at home, but Tarantino tends to nail the whole moviegoing experience for me.

Cyberpunk 2077
I am enjoying the game more than I expected, really. I was always a bit put off playing Geralt in The Witcher games, but so far this feels a lot more engaging from a story and character perspective. Bugs are one thing, but I don't really understand most of the other complaints. It is a pretty fantastic world to explore.

I have a hard time believing the Dems would have done the EXACT same thing, given Clinton lost to Trump in 2016 but had the popular vote. There was plenty of bluster and posturing back then, but nowhere near the drameh we are getting now.

Watchong Ava, which is a pretty entertaining addition to the La Femme Nikita. But it bother me that she is doing a lot of cardio in the movie, but also a heavy smoker. I mean, I guess it is supposed to be her nod to her issues with addiction in the movie, but the fact is cardio is an addiction in itself, and any committed runner is not going to diminish their lung capacity with all the science out there today.

Very sad, he was only 62. This is likely another covid-related death.

General movie thread!!!!
Well hot damn, that was a good way to make me excited about Rogue Squadron. They've had pretty good luck with the name Rogue, so I'm going to hope Star Wars Top Gun turns out great.

Food Thread - What are you eating?
Do you eat the pumpkin as well? I would think the skin would not be enjoyable, but I don't see pumpkin served like this often.

I'm pretty happy that it looks like Deus Ex MK, since I think that game looked great. I was surprised that I montaged through all of introduction stuff. I mean, I would have really liked to play through those scenes to get a feel for my character. I started as a corp, so maybe it flows differently for different origins. Still, the gameplay is solid, it runs well, ad the atmosphere is great, so I'm happy. Am I the only one that thinks Jackie sounds like Darkwing Duck? Ok, maybe a bit deeper voiced, but still... - Cyberpunk 2077
