I've had Apple TV for the summer, mostly for Murderbot, but it does have a ton of good movies and shows that aren't anywhere else. I'll probably cancel it soon though. We get our live TV through Hulu, which comes with Disney+ and ESPN+, so that's a nice freebie. Then I pay for Netflix, Amazon Prime (more for the shipping), and usually add or drop HBO depending on mood. It's too many, but still cheaper than Cable was.

Huh weird. I don't think I liked any of your posts in weeks. -
Good Old Games still oldies but goodies

I love the idea, but not that games list. I don't need Huniepop or Postal in my games library. -
Youtube recommendations, let's beat the algorithm
Hurlshort replied to Sarex's topic in Way Off-Topic
I figure I should add my Youtube mainstays. I tend to find most youtubers to be hard to watch, but I have a couple fitness people that are solid. Yoga with Adriene is super calming. My wife and I often do routines in the early mornings when we are too tired to do a hard workout, but want to start the day off with some movements: Strength training is super important as you age, and I've been trying to incorporate more into my weekly regimen. I have some dumbbells and a bench, but I don't really know what I'm doing to work different muscle groups and not hurt myself. Tom Peto is the best I've seen on Youtube. Again, he's a calming guy. I don't need someone yelling at me when I'm working out in my garage. Lastly, the only person I watch on the couch is Pompsie. -

I know a lot of people have done the twin thing, but he did it extremely well. The posture and expressions made it very clear which character was which. -

So this is a sequel to the 2021 movie? I thought that was decent. This looks more silly, which is fine. -

It's not though, because there are no longer consequences to actions. -
Random video game news... RNG is your friend!

NWN2 Enhanced Edition comes out tomorrow, so I decided to pick it up on GOG. I'm pretty excited to play it after so long. It doesn't look like they've done much graphically, but it was a decent looking game back in the day, so it should be fine. -

Finished Murderbot. It was perfect. I'm glad it is already greenlit for season 2. -

Yeah, I found the woke police were once again ridiculously off base. The Nightsisters were a bit toned down from the Clone Wars, but they fit the lore nicely. I haven't watched Ahsoka, I will watch it after Rebels. Given that I enjoy Rosario Dawson, I imagine I will be happy with it. It really just comes down to the actor in most of these series for me. I know the Obiwan Kenobi show was pretty weak, but I can watch Ewan McGregor do pretty much anything. Actually I'm watching Ewan McGregor ride an old motorcycle across Scandinavia with my wife in a series called Long Way Home. That is also pretty good. -

I've been working my way through Star Wars content for the last year. I watched Clone Wars, then Bad Batch, and now I'm on Rebels. I just finished Rebels season 2, and it ended on a very high note. I decided to take a break from the animated stuff and watch some live action, but I'm trying to stay in chronological order, so I gave The Acolyte a try. It is set about a century before anything else. The first 4 episodes are bad. Bad acting, pacing, etc. I ended up fast forwarding through a good chunk of dialogue. It's still fun to look at, as is most Star Wars stuff for me. It also has Manny from the Good Place. I kept expecting him to throw a molotov ****tail and talk about Blake Bortles. He's the best actor in the bunch by a mile. In episode 5 it suddenly got good. Granted episode 5 was all action, but: So it ended better than it started, which is actually how I feel most of the Star Wars content is. Other than Bad batch, the animated stuff was all pretty tough in the first season. So I guess it is a shame it got canned, but not really. There are plenty of other things to watch. -

I read that there will be an MMA fight on the White House lawn, and I did a double take when I saw that it was ABC news and not the Onion. -
Hammerheads are really not dangerous to humans. Great whites, on the other hand, will bite you in half. When I swim in the ocean and I get separated from my group, every time my hand passes in front of my eyes on the downstroke, I get freaked out. What was that?!? Oh it's just my hand. There it is again!?! Oh, still my hand.
