If you liked the first one you'll like them all! Murderbot was such a fun read all the way through.

Not "many people." Americans. Americans find it hard to read. I'm not 100% sure but I'm fairly certain everyone else in the world agrees that either day/month/year or year/month/day is the best way to clearly indicate a date. You know, because big to small. America believes month/day/year for some stupid fucking reason.

What makes it unique?

It's awesome how well d4 runs on the deck. I love it, if you're into the game it's well worth jumping through the hoops.

I use it every day, so much so that my main gaming PC barely gets used. I'm a dad now and it has made gaming not just possible but easy to do.

I think many people have that pull to nature, but most that do it and survive recognize that living without the infrastructure of the rest of humanity is at least extremely challenging and so will thoroughly prepare.

What a terrible way to go. They sounded less prepared than even Chris McCandless.

I can't believe I'm recommending reality TV, but Alone is a fairly good representation of being alone in the wilderness with no resources. It is extremely unpleasant.

Buying new, sure, what you're saying makes sense. I think buying used for the form factor or whatever and not wanting windows is a fine choice, though.

I think it'll definitely be making a round trip out of the house, and if that's the case it's a no from me. There is no reason it can't do both - local streaming when local and remote streaming when remote, with all the restrictions/benefits of each.

We'll see. I probably won't buy one anyway, I'm fine with chiaki on my deck. Maybe if it's a flop and goes on mega sale.

They must have hired the guy we got rid of. Bummer, dude. Might have some luck at an IT recycler nearby. Contact them and tell them what you're looking for.

I agree.

Does anything work on the threads in the back or are they the same?

It is incredibly unlikely all the threads are screwed, despite my story.

If they truly are, you should be able to buy replacement rails. If you do, I'd say go square if you can and use rack studs for ease of install.

Unfortunately threaded racks can be lots of different sizes - the most common in my experience are 10-32, 12-24 or M6x1. I just label racks with their screw size in a visible area to avoid confusion.

Someone at my current job ruined every single thread in one of the server rooms, so that's definitely a possibility as well. I will say it is obvious when someone has done that once you take a close look, though.

Best bet is to just buy one of each screw size at a local hardware store and try them out. Maybe also see if there is a model number on the rack, but don't hold your breath.

I never got into poe and didn't have as much time in d2 as you, but I played the crap out of d2 original. I also couldn't stand d3. What a disappointment.

I really enjoy d4. I was not going to buy it but a friend who I often agree with on game choices did and was looking for someone to play with so I joined. No regrets. It feels like a modern Diablo game to me. Cross platform works well, which is nice so we can play with another friend who was obsessed with d2 but became a console gamer over the years.

I am a lot busier than I was when d2 came out so I only have a single character, around level 60, but I'm looking forward to the first season.

It was clear from the start.

Is that because of new cycling infrastructure or was there already good infrastructure and this is simply a new thing that people are doing?

The one in the image here is an electric assist, hills are no problem. If you wanted to get it to work in the winter you could buy an electric assist trike. The bucket in the front is wide instead of long. A family in my neighbourhood drops their kids off at the school near us in theirs year round, unless the snowfall has been particularly heavy, but that is the exception instead of the rule.

Good god, it's all beans over there, too! I don't like beans. They're sticky and squishy and irritating and they get everywhere.

It is technically episodic, but it's not. Unless you're pretty deep in star trek (there are references to Enterprise in this episode) I'd recommend watching season 1 first to get a feeling for the characters.

It's not long and it's a great ride. If you really want to skip season 1, though, this is the episode to start with. The first two are basically led with "last time on star trek snw".

Great deal. It's an awesome game and they did a good job with the remaster.
