Just a little project to reacquaint myself with sculpting after some time away from Blender. I'm pretty proud with how this one turned out.

I'm looking for something mid-weight and a little rugged. These look great, but a tad pricey.

The plan was to leave the 3/4 inch wood embedded in the poured concrete, but this will be tiled, and I'm wondering if the concrete might crack if the wood expands. If necessary, I can pry them out and fill the space after it sets.

And yes, I know self-leveling means this shouldn't be necessary, but it never seems to work out that way in practice.

I'm starting Scar in season 2, and the recap scenes show Starbuck in uniform requesting to lead a rescue, and both Adama and Roslyn rejecting her. Roslyn "appreciates what shes trying to do". I don't remember when this happened, and can't figure out which episode it possibly could have, between the initial trip, Pegasus, and Roslyn getting ill? Can someone please help me out?

I'm about 8 hours into Death Stranding Director's Cut, and I just can't do this. I love the meditative, lonely feel of the gameplay, and I'm always down for a bonkers and absurd Kojima story. I truly hope future games implement a similar traversal system where you really need to watch your footing. But this game is heavily reliant on menus, and this is the worst UI/UX of any piece of software or media I've ever experienced in 40 years. Every single aspect makes my head hurt, from the insane amount of useless information on each screen, to the menu flow, to how directives are communicated.

I'm a little surprised purchasers never filed a class action lawsuit, and I'm more than a little pissed every recommendation I've seen didn't have a caveat for the UI.

Fuck this game, and fuck Hideo Kojima for the headache I now have. After MGS5, and this, I'm done.

As far as I can tell, those packets of raw sugar have the same calories as refined sugar, with 1/10th the ability to sweeten. So if you wish to sweeten your coffee, for example, you end up consuming about 5x the sugar, than if your stupid coffee shop just offered regular damn white sugar. Why? Why does this stuff exist? Who prefers it?

The symbiont would be, and the Trill's spots would only present when the two joined. As the symbiont grew older, their spots would increase in number, so later hosts like Jadzia would have more spots than earlier hosts. Like rings in a tree.

So last night I finished Alan Wake Remastered, and go to look at Alan Wake II prices, and I see that it has a free 3 hour trial. Great! It's 12:30am now, so I'll just set it to download and try it tomorrow night! Today I go to have a look, and...the trial is expired because it started as soon as the download finished I guess. Fuck me.

Is anyone actually enjoying this new casual mode?

Thanks to this track, the Doctor Who theme was burned into my psyche long before I became a fan of the show.

Tapping the search icon at the top of the app should obviously be a content search, as we have a separate button for community exploration. But they both seem to do the same thing. How do we search for threads or comments?

I'd highly appreciate some suggestions on how to prepare this monster after it has defrosted.
