    Newer homes may be wired for Ethernet or... you can buy a hybrid mesh that uses Powerline which is what I use and works great in my house. https://www.tp-link.com/us/deco-mesh-wifi/product-family/deco-px50/

    LOL, the amount of connected tech has increased significantly since we moved into our house almost 12 years ago. Quick list: 1. WiFi home mesh 2. WiFi/App connected kitchen appliances 3. nVidia Shields (they replaced smart TVs that went dumb) 4. RING doorbell and cameras 5. WiFi connected home lighting 6. WiFi connected garage door opener with camera <- Nice to have in case I forgot to close the garage door, lol. 7. More tablets because children, lol 8. WiFi connected soundbar with Alexa built-in EDIT: 9. Nest thermostat

    Beck Bennett is in this? I miss that guy on SNL, he was great!

    Yeah, agreed on the microwave on both points. Just use it for making popcorn or warming food up so I'm right there anyways. Also, cramming more tech in it probably causes issues I'm sure. My previous 22 year old GE Profile microwave was fine till it had mechanical issues so ended up replacing it.

    Went high tech with new kitchen appliances as our new GE Profile microwave and range oven are App and WiFi connected. Don't see need for it with the microwave but being able to preheat my oven without having to get up from my desk or couch is convenient feature.

    $500 for a console... I must be out of touch these days, lol. EDIT: Oof https://www.ign.com/articles/nintendo-switch-2-screen-punctures-ruin-launch-day-for-fans-due-to-store-receipts-stapled-into-consoles-box

    Weekly I suppose. It does look well made for a streaming series. Hopefully it doesn't go full nostalgia retard like Romulus did.

    It'll be the second time Anthony Carrigan plays a DC villain. He was great in Barry tho!!

    You don't have a SSD yet? Yes, 2.5in SSDs are dead and M.2 is the state of the art but it sounds like you need a new system. On a side note I converted my old 250Gb Samsung SSD from 2014 into a USB drive with an adapter from Amazon. Works really well and is connected to my nVidia Shield to hold media files.

    Apparently Chance's character wasn't recast after his death.

    LOL, it looks shiney as I enhanced the photo as it being all black hid much of the details. And yeah, I'm glad I bought my RTX 5080 when I did ($1249 USD) back in early April as its gone up $100 or more since. Which is ridiculous as supply has increased significantly since.

    Half-way through MobLand and its a really good crime series. Amps it up to 11 after the first episode by pushing you in to the deep of the pool and the stellar cast with Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren and more are awesome in it as well.

    Do you mean trope in a negative context? Trope can means its overused but I don't think that is the case for female characters in Star Wars. As for Andor its waaaay more complex because of its ensemble of characters.

    Paging Austin Powers, lol.

    Completed my new build last week, below is the specs. Overall it went well and was very happy it powered up first time. Only issue was with bottom fans rubbing against the bottom of the chassis that I was able to fix with with #10 nylon washers. It was a way easier build than my old rig from over eleven years ago. Re-playing Cyberpunk 2077 with all the ray tracing eye candy turned on is really nice. Still playing at 1080p as I'm waiting till September to see what is available in the 2K OLED monitor market. The main internal parts (CPU, GPU, PSU, mobo, memory, and SSD) from my old rig will be going into a new case for my daughter's first PC as her birthday present later this year too. CPU: AMD 9800X3D GPU: MSI 5080 RTX Shadow 3x OC MOBO: MSI MAG 850M Mortar WiFi RAM: 32Gb DDR5 6000 STORAGE: 2Tb & 4Tb 5x2 M.2 SSDs and HDD CPU Cooler: ID Cooling 360 Pro (AIO) PSU: SeaSonic FOCUS GX ATX 3 (2024) GX-850 850 Watt CASE: Asus AP201 OS: Win11 Home

    I don't care who returns. I just want the mature theme to continue. Will it happen? I hope so!! The series has good viewership and D+ needs the content.
  17. TangledThorns
    Wait for it... 😂🤣
  18. TangledThorns
    And that is before you add popcorn and a drink, ugh. And movie theaters wonder why they are dying...
  19. TangledThorns
    Also want to note how the soundtrack was perfect for the tone of the series too.
  20. TangledThorns
    Finished the second season. Just as f'ing good as the first. I'm hoping we get to see more of this. A series about the second Death Star would be very interesting. But who knows with Disney...
  21. TangledThorns
    Looks fun which is not how I would describe Aronofsky's films, lol.
  22. TangledThorns
    Looks like good sci-fi to me. I wonder if ALIEN will see a similar animated treatment?
  23. TangledThorns
    +1 for Taboo. No friggin' idea why Tom Hardy couldn't do a second season.
  24. TangledThorns
    Not yet but its on our list!
  25. TangledThorns
    Yeah but whatever, lol. HBO Max is still one of the better streaming service imho. Even better with the Max/Hulu/Disney+ bundle too.
