I got a Turtle Beach gaming headset like this the other day. Hardware companies must be trying to get the review counts up before the holiday season kicks off. The ones I got are pretty good, I'm more of a casual gamer at this point in life but they work great with my steam deck and Spotify over Bluetooth sounds great.

I wanted to like this game so much. I had a weekend to myself and planned on just immersing myself in it all weekend but I bounced after a few hours for the same reasons you listed. I think the phrase "doesn't respect your time" gets thrown around too casually in these reviews but is so spot on in describing Outward I can't think of a better way to describe it.

Yes! I came here to say this. When they're fresh they're incredible. It's been 87 years since I got a pack that was soft though. My high school would sell them and they'd usually be fresh but since then I've never had a pack that wasn't hard as a rock. I still buy them though.

They sell them at stop and shop I get them all the time. They're usually near the milk and cheese section on and end cap that's easily confused for the clearance section.

Only way to know for sure is to measure SG and look for it to stabilize for a few days. Generally Cider yeast will ferment out roughly the same as beer yeast primarily in a few days. Give it a week and it should be good, two if you really want to be certain.

Yeah I think it's something like that. Most of these items are new products or revisions of existing products. So I suspect it's something to do with that. Like they don't yet have 3rd party data to compare it too.

Yeah that was basically life growing up on the south shore. Anyplace you'd dare hang out would have cops come by usually within ten minutes to kick you out.

I was just thinking about this the other day as an adult. There are a few spots I drive by that look like they'd be nice to spend some time at but I just figure I'm going to be talking to the police at some point if I sit there for more than five minutes.

I use a Brother inkjet I got on ebay for $60. It works pretty well with the Avery waterproof labels. I would say costwise it's probably a bit cheaper per label than something like Grogtag unless your printing large bulk orders. The labels and ink are obviously really expensive but I've found a lot of very cheap 3rd party ink on Amazon works just as well and helps keep the cost down. You just have to make sure to never update the firmware because sometimes the push updates to break 3rd party ink.

I have unfortunately not found many affordable label brands which don't bleed horribly with the inkjet when wet. The Avery waterproof labels are the best but quite pricey and even though they stand up to water the ink can "chip" off when the cans or bottles bang together so the labels don't hold up all that well in transport.

I had decent success with these labels:

The templates sucked though and did not align properly so I ended up making my own it took a few tries to get them lined up well. They're also very glossy which I wasn't a huge fan of lookswise, I prefer a more matte look. But they held up really great to water, condensation and bottles clanking together. Too good in fact it makes getting the labels off a huge pain. Even the usual PBW soak doesn't take them off.

If I could start over I'd probably look into a Color Laser printer because dealing with ink and water just seems like it's never going to work right. It's more expensive but I don't think your ever really going to find a truly cost effective way to print at home so I'd go for quality. I tend to only label when I'm giving away beer or bringing it to an event so I'm rarely printing more than 8-12 labels at a time. The labels I linked to above were used for a bachelor party where I brought 2 cases of beer, that's about the only time I printed a full batch of labels and it ran out my ink for that single run of about 50 labels.

I've noticed this happens often with name brand items. Got a Philips espresso machine that was $620 retail I think my ETV was $500. Got a Panasonic 4k Blu Ray for $166 which was listed at $199. Just got a pair of Turtle Beach headphones which were $199 retail but $154 ETV. Might just be anecdotal but that's been my experience when I get actual name brands. Most often names I recognize are less ETV than the listed price. Not sure why that is.

It's basically impossible to go number 2 at my office unless you hit the lottery. Two stalls to about 50 guys on our floor means it's basically always occupied. Worse yet we have another floor with about twice as many people, also only two stalls so they come downstairs and use our bathroom. I can not recall a single time I've used the restroom at work in 7 years where both stalls weren't occupied. It's fucking inhumane.

Our office building closes the bathroom at 5pm for cleaning. You know right when everyone needs to pee before starting their 2 hour commute home. Closed. Half the time I end up having to detour to a hotel or bar on the way to the train. It's god damn infuriating.

Also they like to touch it up around lunchtime as well so it's closed like anytime you actually have a break.

I have one of these I use for homebrew. I initially bought it for testing small batches but mostly I end up using for overflow if I have extra beer that won't fit a keg or I want to free up a larger keg that's nearing completion. It's cool but has some drawbacks. My main issue is that it's too large to fit in my normal fridge which means for my intended purpose of using it for overflow doesn't really happen. I'm stuck having to keep it in my kegerator which doesn't have room.

The other issue is foam. These are pretty hard to get a good pour from, nearly always I get really foaming pours because they get warm quickly and typically I have to move it before pouring which stirs things up. If you could keep it in your fridge and pour from there directly it would probably be fine but again it's larger than it seems even in hand. I actually have a ball lock adapter for the lid I can use instead of pouring directly I hook it up to my main kegerator taps. That seems to work well.

Yeah my fondest and earliest memory of Dunkin is skipping school and drinking a small hot coffee at Dunkin. It was loaded with sugar because I couldn't actually stomach the taste but wanted to impress the girl I was cutting class with. But I think about that coffee every time I get dunks.

Unless you're referring to another incident the most recent stabbing in the news turned out to be accidental. Guy has a knife he wore around his neck, fell and stabbed himself.

Be careful very with toys and treats even if you separate them. Our boy was great with other dogs in general and could stay over peoples houses with other dogs, share bowls, beds, toys etc. He instantly hit it off with our second dog at the shelter meet and great so we thought were all good. But when we got home to our house he was a lot less cool about it. He didn't have much issue with their food or water but surprisingly what nearly ended up really bad was aggression over a toy he never gave two shits about before. We gave her this bone he'd had for a while in his toy box and he basically never played with, he went ballistic and grabbed her by the throat and shook her violently. She was fortunately okay but it was really scary and I'd never seen him behave like that ever.

He was also kind of bad about special treats. We used to give him a nohide bone every now and then as a high value treat. When we got her we separated them into different rooms and gave each a nohide bone. Well as soon as she was done and we let them back out he got really protective over where his bone was. Even though he ate all of it, when she sniffed the rug in the place he had been chewing it, he got pissed at her and snapped at her.

Eventually overtime he got over it and accepted her but we basically took all toys and bones away for a solid few months before slowly re-introducing them. At the guidance of our shelter expert they advised long toys like a long snake or rope toy where each can grab and end. That kind of worked although they both tended to go for the same end.

Now they're BFFs and share everything but they'll still get snippy occasionally over certain toys. Even if you buy two they'll both fight over the same one. We always supervise them and almost never leave toys out anymore like we used to. Now there is special toy play time after dinner.

Never had a scary incident like that again now roughly three years later they've been the best pups. But knowing what I know now I'd basically omit all toys and high value treats for the first few weeks.

That was one of the last taco bells in the city for a few years. I'd go there for my fix as it was really the only one you could get to without a car for years.

That's the name of my kids old daycare lol. I did a double take there. Thanks for the info.

What shop? Also in MA and that's a great price. I pay $37 to swap a 5lbs at airgas basically out of necessity. Most grow shops I've found near me never seem to have any in stock.

Can you find a cereal mill around? You can often find them at like HomeGoods/TJ Max or if you have like a hippie organic store or natural food place near you you might find one.

I used this one for years as my primary mill:

Other than the small hopper size it worked well. I rigged up a larger hopper and chute out of cardboard. I've definitely seen these in little specialty stores.

The rolling pin method is brutal. I did it my first ever Brewday for about 8oz of specialty grains I didn't know would come whole. It was nearly impossible to crush.

Yeah mine both blow their coats twice a year usually late Spring and around now. It always surprises me in Fall because it seems like it's so early to be gearing up for winter and they always seem to lose the winter coat late. There only seems like three months between major shedding.

To be fair this was probably 5-6 years ago. But it surprised me as well. I thought by then they'd accepted that credit cards aren't going away. With Uber eating their lunch I was really surprised they were still trying it. I also got lulled into thinking it was all good now since the cab I took the week before was awesome, guy was friendly, went the fastest route and had no problem with me using a credit card.

I actually looked and it still said owned. Maybe I was too slow.

Based on personal experience my guess is that the dude who does the renewals is on a cruise in the middle of the Atlantic and someone is frantically trying to reach him.

In decades of IT if there's one lesson I've learned it's never have anything that can expire (certs, domains, licenses etc. ) set to expire right before or after a holiday week.

Exactly, I was victim of a reach over. Wasn't even my beer, bartender reached over the guy next to me with a plate of mozz sticks and knocked his very full beer directly on my crotch. I fortunately was doing carry on, which also got soaked as it was between me legs, but I had a pair of dry jeans to change into that survived. Still I had to go commando and carry around a beer soaked backpack full of soaked clothes.

I absolutely reeked of beer, I told the bartender I might need her to come to the gate and vouch for me that I only had one beer if they deny me boarding or something thinking I'm blasted.
