This 45 year old man just finished dusting off his action figure collection. There was so much dust and now I can't stop coughing.

How the hell did they get so dusty?

Why do French Blu-rays have to have goddamn baked in subtitles?!

My shelves get unbelievably dusty if I don't dust once per month. My TV stand gets out of control if I let it go 2 months.

It's odd how it's only really the French who do this. I know on some occasion, another studio in some other Euro country might do it, but it's usually the French. I got the French Vice Squad Blu-ray in about a month or so back. On my region free Blu-ray player, I can't turn the subs off. When I play the disc back on my PC, I can remove them.

Wrapping up the negotiations on the second licensed title for my studio. I am excited and just relieved that I got what I wanted out of this deal for the price I wanted. Plus, it was shot in 4K. We'll see about doing UHD discs on a BD-R disc for the release. I've got to learn how to do the authoring.

UGH now I figure out how to get stereo back for the laptop. I could scrap the idea or try a mac mini or my Mac Pro when I get it out of storage but as for the windows machine buy cheap speakers.. I only have a few games I want to play.

Perhaps I should add Accident Man to the wishlist. I’ve seen the trailer for it a couple times recently and it looks kind dumb and fun. Ray Stevenson is in it which is always a plus.

I see another class that's one of my requirements to graduate in May has an open section now. I already have my 12 credits for the fall and that's my limit so I sent an email about it to my department head. Hopefully she will respond ASAP before the class fills up if it is indeed a class I should take this fall and then bump something else to the spring.

hopefully it will work out. all that stuff is why go to school can be draining and annoying.

LOL I just don't want to finish next spring and then get told here are more classes you have to take in the fall. I've put in all of this work, tell me exactly what I need to do to finish and I'll do it. Within reason, don't want to take 15 credits this fall unless I have to, 12 credits is already a lot of work. Especially if they're all online. LOL the department head responded so that's nice but then I tried to register for CAST 302V and it wont' let me take it before CAST 301V. Hopefully this won't be an issue next spring!

Finally received a negative Covid-19 test result this morning! Tested positive back on July 7th, but had only a mild case. My other three family members who had it have also recovered.

Glad to hear your mom is doing better, Chad.

The way I see it, if these systems aren't to be abused, then man will have to give over control to A.I. Machine intelligence will never judge man, it will only serve to make his life better. Trust The Machine...trust in your future.

Idk man, something seems a bit off with this guy.

Clearly he's Skynet.

still waiting on my results to come back...

[Scarriere]

I get tested tomorrow.
It’ll be a slam dunk. I’ve been, basically, in isolation for three weeks.

[Batman1980]

With any luck I'll never get tested, best of luck Scarriere.

I’m not liking this game. I’m thinking about uninstalling this game and its 50+GB file from my external hard drive.
