    Formula 1 2021

    Not a super fan by any stretch but this was boring as shit. Dude's wheel not coming off in a pit stop was the most exciting thing that happened all day.
  2. This was my first attempt at watching a NASCAR race in well over a decade, so I am far from a knowledgeable fan or the target audience. That said...this was an unwatchable product due to all of the commercials. I turned it off and back on twice and abandoned it entirely with maybe 20 laps to go. Were the insane amount of commercials because of all the yellow/red flags? Or are NASCAR races just filled with commercials? Coming from just having watched the F1 race a few hours earlier...the production gap between the two events was jarring. Not that I am a huge F1 fan either, but I have watched it off and on over the past two seasons...outside of football season I am always hurting for sports to watch. F1 races have amazing cameras seemingly everywhere...this race, not so much. For half of it it seemed like I was watching water on glass. As for the rain...I was surprised the race was not halted because for a while there were cars going off track or into each other lap after lap. Again as someone who just happened upon the broadcast, it seemed almost farcical. Does that always happen in NASCAR when it's wet? F1 handles wet weather much better based on my limited sample size. And maybe that's just the nature of the differences between the cars but if so you'd think they'd have rain delays or something like that. All that said, commercials aside this was more entertaining than the F1 race earlier in the day where there were exactly two exciting moments and both of them were caused by equipment failure. Counting the days until September...

    Wasteland 3

    IMO it is a great game and better than 2, which I liked but just was released too soon.
  4. Army of the Dead was good but it was way too long.
  5. Yeah somehow we had never seen this. Watched it last night and thought it was great.
  6. A few years back when the hurricane shut down the gulf coast refineries and most of the gas stations were dry, it was common to see idiots driving around with trash cans full of gas sloshing around in a truck bed. San Antonio.
  7. I have the Ace gen 1 rifle in 7.62x39. It looks like the primary difference between gen 1 and 2 is an mlok foreend out of the box. This was probably the most popular aftermarket part for the gen 1, that or the trigger. I love IWI stuff and the Ace is no exception.
  8. I work in Cybersecurity for a US refiner. We are hearing that their business network was completely compromised. OT allegedly was not, but was shutdown as a precaution. Down since Friday morning, supposed to be back online by this Friday. The places that are fucked now are from panic buying. There are imminent supply issues for almost every SE state though. GA TN SC NC AL MS VA are most at risk and roughly in that order.
  9. Haven't read the book, was not expecting much from a Michael B Jordan movie. That said, we didn't hate it and it was an easy watch. Bald female Navy SEAL was strange.

    2021 NFL DRAFT

    Mac Jones at 15 to the Pats is a great pick. To me his comp is Burrow who went #1 overall last year...

    2021 NFL DRAFT

    Catching up without commercials. First two picks chalk, I think Lawrence will be great, not sure about Wilson. Third I think Lance is going to be a huge bust. 4th I think Pitts is the lock of the draft to be great. 5th I think Chase will be solid but IMO Waddle is the best WR in the draft and will be Tyreek Hill except not a woman beating moron. 7th I love the take but Detroit is probably the shittiest NFL franchise in the 47 years I've been alive, so it seems like they will fuck it up. 8 is a solid take, dude looks good but personally I would have gone with the Bama corner.
  12. Brian Robinson and Jase McClellan, so yeah this is the correct answer.

    Oscars

    I mean it definitely feels like weirder and weirder movies are being nominated, and winning. I have not watched a full Oscars in forever, so I am not the target demo but last year was the first year in my adult life I had not watched even one of the best picture nominees. I'm not sure I had even heard of half of them. I looked back and Birdman was the last best picture winner I have seen. Do you really think a movie like Gladiator or Return of the King is ever going to win again? It sure does not seem like it to me.

    Oscars

    Didn't watch a minute of it and have not watched a full Oscars in at least a decade but this was the first time I had never seen one of the Best Picture nominees. I had not even heard of half of them.
  15. Saw some comps but this is way better than Sharp Objects IMO. We could not get through that...on the other hand can't wait for the next one of these after watching the first two eps back to back.
  16. Yeah looks like it to me, blue/black bezel. 20Kish.
  17. Sam rocking a GMT Master II? Nice watch.
  18. The dubsports link works pretty well for me on Chrome, except I can't get it casted so watching it on a 13" screen. I have had to refresh it twice in the past hour but it came back both times in a couple of seconds.

    Longhorn Network

    Failed for me using Safari, works on Chrome.
  20. Woke up at 6a and couldn't get back to sleep so I watched this solo as the wife had no interest. I thought it was surprisingly good. Best video game film I can remember.
  21. Kristen Stewart wins in a landslide.
  22. All grass no fakes.
  23. HBO Max app on Samsung TV here. The UI is super laggy compared to Netflix/Prime/YouTubeTV. Also the stream always starts in like 480. It gets better from there and eventually gets up to where its supposed to be but its annoying. Also there is no HDR in the Samsung app. If I Chromecast from a laptop to the TV, HDR works. Annoying all around.
  24. Unhinged is on there now. Russell Crowe road rage film. We watched it last night. 90 mins...unintentionally hilarious IMO. Crowe is very angry and is wearing a fat suit.
