Wafik LinkCongrats on the move and glad to hear you're feeling better. I would love to take Warhammer 40k Boltgun off your hands. I have been meaning to finally give it a play at some point.Congrats on the move and glad to hear you're feeling better.

Comment on What are some interesting landmarks in your neck of the woods? in ~talk
Wafik LinkWhat's your first thought when you hear 'the Big Apple'? Probably New York right? Well not if you grew up in Ontario. Let me introduce you to the Big Apple in the thriving metropolis of Colborne,...What's your first thought when you hear 'the Big Apple'? Probably New York right? Well not if you grew up in Ontario. Let me introduce you to the Big Apple in the thriving metropolis of Colborne, ON. Thankfully wikipedia still has a picture of the way it looked when I was young as some crazy person decided to draw a face on it. You can go to their website if you want to see what that looks like, but it's nightmare fuel.

I like it, it does a reliable job of blocking ads and I ignore all of the crypto nonsense. I guess since it works I'm too lazy to switch.

Wafik Link ParentYou see, EMHs age much slower than humans, so it makes perfect sense that 1000 years later he would have aged the equivalent of the time between Voyager and this show in human years.

Oh and he no longer sings but definitely bangs Seven.

Comment on What games have you been playing, and what's your opinion on them? in ~games
Wafik Link ParentMan this and getting hit randomly when you're charging an ATB attack drove me crazy.Enemies can sometimes just walk away while you're preparing to do a special move and you'll just whiff instead of tracking them.

They went with the cool world building, which is hard to translate in MP only games and didn't do enough of it. Post it note monsters and sprinklers? Cool, but old super fast if that's it. They needed like 10 more of these ideas.

For that reason, we keep two dedicated hot spots on hand from a different ISP (main internet is Rogers, hotspots are Bell).
Our internet used to be a lot more unreliable but I figured out it was because our tech cabinet was so full of unused crap contractors left after each time we got an upgrade that wires would get pinched causing something to reboot. I finally got a contractor out to clean up our tech cabinet and we have had zero internet issues since.
Thankfully we have run into a situation where both ISPs were down at the same time. If we did, we would probably just close and go home.

The prequel idea is interesting but without de-aging of the original actors, who cares? At that point just make an action movie. Aside from using the same names and doing heists, how do you connect it to the first movie in a meaningful way?

WNBA sounds like a great idea to me. Much easier to route for. We just got a WNBA team in Toronto starting next year, so I'm looking forward to getting more into women's sports. They have definitely been blowing up recently for general interest.

Wafik Link ParentFair and also, every sports franchise is owned by billionaires, so it would be impossible to enjoy professional sports if we tried to hold that bar. And I know exactly what you meant. I hope you...Truly? Of course not. But relative to their competitors...kinda? I used to tell myself that about the Buss family to justify my Lakers fandom. I don't know how I'm gonna weasel my way out of it now.

And I know exactly what you meant. I hope you don't feel like I was giving you too hard of a time or anything.
I like Tomlin. I think he is a good coach and I'll take winning over some of the terrible franchises out there. I'm just honestly baffled by the QB decisions over the past couple seasons.

If we are going to give the family credit for the Rooney rule, then it's even more egregious they hired a washed up QB with dangerous opinions that he can't stop talking about. But really, it's Mike Tomlin trying to do his best to destroy his reputation and the franchise.
Haha, whoops! Thank you for putting the extra work in, I don't deserve your generosity!
