Daniel Cormier implores Luke Rockhold to stay retired. by -alc in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It's MMA. That's par for the course. Rogan talking to schaub, Aldo's coach telling media Aldo should retire. I'm surprised they don't tell us when they get colonics done tbh.

3rd wave espresso coming to a hotel near you thanks to Hurricane Ian by ghorton97 in espresso

Can we stop fueling my needless consumerism please. I told myself I'd be done upgrading for a while when I got my niche.

Df64 with some mods by the looks of it. There's updated versions now if you're in the market. Fixed some of the issues people had with the initial release.

DF64P (more refined version of the original DF64)

DF64E (has a timer and hopper, otherwise same at DF64P)

DF83 (same design at DF64P but 83 mm burrs)

I fell into a YouTube hole this past weekend and now I have to keep telling myself I don't need the DF83

I want to say chrome opens on start up. I remember having to change some settings so it didn't do that. That's not saying it's not heavy for a browser, just why you would have resources being used on boot.

Niche zero questions? Do the grounds look normal for level 10? by Burrito2525 in espresso

[–]reticulatedjig 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah try not to touch the calibration ring when you change the grind size. When I first got my niche I'd sometimes grab both rings on accident and screw my calibration by turning both rings.

Top comment on Meta's Bonelab trailer. by Minimum-Ad-8056 in OculusQuest

[–]reticulatedjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That said, I still want to see more. It would be cool if Meta and SONY would team up and dual fund some BIG VR titles - PSVR2 gets the high fidelity version, Quest2/3 get the standalone version.

I read this as big VR titties. Which coincidentally I think would be a huge VR driver.

I'm running a 3080 with a 7700k. Definitely feeling the age of my cpu when I play more demanding games at 1440uw. I was planning on just building out everything towards the end of this year but I found the gigabyte vision 3080 for less than MSRP a couple months ago so I figured I'd just start with that.

Fry it. Don't saute. Treat it like bacon. You want it to get crispy. You should be able to get 6 to 8 slices out of a regular can of spam.

Multitasking level -1! by Man_small_why_fall in espresso

[–]reticulatedjig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switch my niche for filter and espresso and this morning I was wondering why it was taking so damn long grinding 45ish grams for my drip. Needless to say I have 45 grams of pre ground coffee now so someone is getting affogatos this weekend.

Neil Gaiman: “If you loved Acts I and II of Sandman on Audible you'll have been waiting less than patiently for Act III. And now it's here. You can listen. It's soooo good.” by OrphicPigment in comicbooks

[–]reticulatedjig 89 points90 points  (0 children)

If it was just one reader, and no tangible production then yeah I'd also think it's a bit superfluous. But they put a ton of work into sound design, voice actors, it's a really unique way to experience the story. I like to listen to it with my eyes closed and try to let my mind fill everything else in.

Nvidia RTX 40 series will not support Display Port 2.0 by ClubChaos in pcgaming

[–]reticulatedjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. But I also put the base stations away after use so at a certain point I didn't bother nicely cable managing so there were a lot of wires I stepped over til I got a rug

I can deal with 1 wire. Especially since I started my VR experience with the rift cv1. That was wires everywhere. And I had extra base stations god so many wires.

Im calling it, more (non-Japanese) games will make anime adaptations in the near future. And I dont mind by Its_MikeCoxlong in gaming

[–]reticulatedjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's a uniquely western viewpoint. Anime is a niche thing, so some fans feel that they need to overcompensate by either only liking the most obscure shit OR they say everything is a treasure (which is what your alluding to, I think). I think, that as anime becomes more widespread and mainstream, people will feel more comfortable being more discerning and not feel the need to defend anything just cause it's an anime.

Edit: I say I think, because I don't know how it is in Japan. For all I know, the Japanese anime community is just as bad, there must be a market for all the cookie cutter Isekai crap that came out over the last 10 years.

Joe Rogan says he’s done with UFC work once Dana White is gone: ‘That’s in my contract’ by darkjediii in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't. I also mute the commentary so I'm not a good example of most fans of either sport.

Eh. I would rather not buy a kit with a MLM or gambling company emblazoned on the chest.

[–]reticulatedjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there's a ton of trash, but there's so much of it coming out of Japan that it's bound to be mostly trash with a few gems. Most mainstream widespread entertainment is that way. It's not unique to anime.

Season ticket price increase. I reserved my season tickets when the team was announced 2 years ago. Curious what the other renewals look like. I’m in the supporters section. by thep_addydavis in MLS

"all profits from sponsors and the league"

The premier league is literally the top league in the world with a huge international market on top of it's domestic consumers. We're just barely at the point where we can compete with the NHL for viewership. I wouldn't compare anything done there to what we're doing here if it comes to finances.

"I will become the youngest UFC champion": 17-year-old Raul Rosas Jr. makes a bold statement after being signed by Dana White. by ToronoRapture in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That statement is a load of BS. 99 percent of underbite need to be corrected because when the patient is 60 plus, their teeth are so worn that their bite is fucked and god forbid they need dentures.

[SPOILER] Mariya Agapova vs. Gillian Robertson by inooway in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have carotid artery and jugular veins on both sides of your neck. Theyre inches apart from each other, and an arm across the neck isn't precise enough to pressure one and not the other.

Also, what do you guys think goes on when you cut blood off to the brain. No O2 so it shuts down. blood chokes work by depriving the brain of oxygen.

"I just think Charles Oliveira will not show up in Abu Dhabi and the UFC will replace Charles with Beneil Dariush." @TeamKhabib by HaramSamSam in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chuck has better jitz and striking, but Islam is a lot better at wrestling. Charles will need to stay off the fence and keep it standing and he has a path to victory. Jujitsu guys can't do much when they smashed between the floor and fence. Not enough space for subs or sweeps. I'd expect khabib to actually have an easier time against Charles than Islam would, because of that relentless pressure. I can't see islam doing the same, he's more measured in the stand up and I feel that'll be his downfall if he loses this fight.

AJ McKee: “I’d love to fight Anthony Pettis. That would be kind of lit, low-key” by elguapo_34 in MMA

[–]reticulatedjig 16 points17 points  (0 children)

McKee needs a PR person. The more I hear his interviews the more I dislike him. How you call yourself the best in the world and call out Pettis who's been losing in the PFL.
