Southern Baptists are poised to ban churches with women pastors. Some are urging them to reconsider (apnews.com)

From its towering white steeple and red-brick facade to its Sunday services filled with rousing gospel hymns and evangelistic sermons, First Baptist Church of Alexandria, Virginia, bears many of the classic hallmarks of a Southern Baptist church....

Y’all-Qaeda doing what it does.

I’m flummoxed for sure. I need a computer to be a bit of a power house, ideally well equipped for music production software and live performance, DJ software, graphic design/animation/illustration, and at least for the desktop gaming. Been in the market for a laptop so I can take at least the music & design production on the go, but damn I hate laptop shopping.

Unsuuuure if Linux is compatible with the graphic/music production software I’m working with, or if there are viable work arounds. Windows 11 looks like a dumpster fire I do not wish to support. I’d really like to avoid Apple as I have my own grievances there too. Windows 10 obviously seems on the way out.

Long story long, feeling a bit lost on how best to proceed. If anyone uses Linux for similar creative endeavors, would love to hear your roses and thorns on the matter. Certainly open to recommendations for a sturdy war horse of a lappy as well.

Yeah Trial of Haste felt like a nonstarter for certain builds that weren’t minimaxed for DPS. Nearly had it once, being maybe 10s off the mark (which realistically means I could’ve had it) but not mad about the rework at all.

Haven’t had a chance to hit em yet but excited to. Felt okayyyy if you were patient enough to play it slow. My problem in general is being greedy and trying to speed through, which usually does more harm than good.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree - PREVIEW THREAD

Previews for the Elden Ring DLC have just been released! Lots of journalists and popular Souls players have been to an event where they played the DLC for a few hours, giving us way more info on what to expect and things such as new weapon types and upgrade materials. This isn’t a comprehensive list, just the few that I found...

Because this is the Elden Ring DLC Hype Train, and we’ve given he courtesy enough. Homie should leave his foolish ambitions to rest.

Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, again (www.engadget.com)

Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year’s $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan...

Cross play would be sick – had a friend go ps5 instead of build a PC due to limited budget. Tried my best to say saving for PC will be way better in long run but here we are.

RinseDrizzle ,

Such a great character in smash. Awesome moves all around, and incredible bm potential. Those hopping push ups are great lmao

RinseDrizzle ,

Those were the days man…

RinseDrizzle ,

Pretty much this. I like to DJ, mostly a hobbyist over paying gigs these days, and have plenty of tunes ripped from the tube. Now I have the fun task of trying to replace everything with higher quality versions. Shitty rips are fine enough for a house party on a humble audio system, but proper venues with subs and high fidelity audio setup make it obvious you ripped from YouTube.

In a perfect world I would love to buy what I use. Problem is I would need an insane budget to grab what I want. I listen to a lot of a music.

Twas at a brewery eating some bomb pork fries. Could dig it.

RinseDrizzle ,

How was this made?

Cheers! Stuff like this is wild. Might need to tinker a bit.

Uffda. My better half and I are living in apartments that are priced for college students and it’s still over $10k a year. None of that fancy shit. We have shared laundry machines but that’s about it.

RinseDrizzle ,

Care to share a favorite recipe or two? I’ve been meaning to step up my legume game for a minute.

Thanks in advance, but also no presh! 🤙

Truly magical critters. Used to be at Gran’s farm as a kid and catch em in your hands. Fields were just covered in em. Great memories.

Haven’t been back in ages… I wonder how it’s looking these days.

RinseDrizzle ,

Still ought to visit Uncle & Aunt who currently reside there, but yeah news of dwindling numbers is a bummer for sure…

RinseDrizzle ,

Unfortunately, good chance of that. :l

Truly. It’s a bit bittersweet of news. To get the obvious out of the way, I fully support reclaiming housing for locals. They’ve had a tough go. Having housing gobbled up for private business is problematic everywhere, but especially on these lil island nations where tourism is huge. Gotta respect the locals!

Bittersweet, I was also in Maui earlier this year, at an Airbnb. It was a vibe. I always enjoy being able to live a bit more like a local when I travel. Usually nicer habitat than a hotel room. Having a kitchen while vacationing is so nice! Very easy to only eat restaurant food the entire time otherwise. Hotels and resorts bring a certain sort, and it’s nice being able to avoid that crowd sometimes too.

Hawaii is especially precarious because a huge part of their economy is tourism. On multiple occasions we were told “thank you for being here.” At the time, tourism was back up to about a 1/3rd its usual. Hit a boat tour that accommodates 45, with 15 of us on there. People in the industry need more butts in seats.

Ultimately, if I need to hit a hotel next time to ensure locals are able to live easier, so be it. Easy choice. I will miss the perks of catching a flat or condo tho.

Roller Town. Largely because I’m trying to introduce more people to the fever dream of a movie that is Roller Town.

Free on YouTube, highly recommend if you’re into comedy and absurdity. Just go in blind, have fun!

Likely sound like cranky old man but I’ll be catching phones with a jack as long as I can! Not mad about having the option for wireless, but I’m a bit of a purist.

Plus once in a blue moon I’ll DJ without Wi-Fi and use the phone to pull up a tune I don’t have in my physical storage. Much harder to do that without 3.5mm jack.

RinseDrizzle ,

Still on a pretty old Galaxy 9, been putting off the upgrade forever. Not even sure what the cool kids are using these days. Need to hit that research phase a bit

RinseDrizzle ,

Definitely intriguing. Partially in awe of this labor of love. Tiny Devs successfully competing with AAA is mighty impressive. Haven’t really been big on city sims but must admit this has me curious, especially with the banner lords looking big troop combat biz.

Miiiight have to hop on the band wagon to see what the fuss is about.

RinseDrizzle ,

I gotta dig back into my first run. Was having a blast but hit distracted when shiny new games stole my attention. It’s been… years since I was jamming on this. Tried booting up the other day and I’m so lost hahaha.

Nothing like coming back into an RPG after extended hiatus like “wait wtf was I doing?”

RinseDrizzle ,

What a handsome young man! 😙

RinseDrizzle ,

Oh yeah, when you’re younger there’s so many firsts: first day of school, first crush, first kiss, first bf/gf, first dance, etc etc etc… the older you get, the fewer and further these benchmarks get. Still stuff like marriage, kids, career moves, house (lol maybe), but most of the time you grind work and fall deep into a routine.

Gotta keep shaking it up with travel and trying new things so it’s not a hot boring blur. I’m hitting mid 30’s but I swear I was mid 20’s like a minute ago.

RinseDrizzle ,

As a DJ and audiophile in general, yeah I’m not thrilled on headphones using batteries and Bluetooth. I’ll give up my hard-line when I’m dead.

Sure, some wireless for exercise or casual use is fine. Full deal breaker if I’m performing though.

RinseDrizzle ,

Excellent points, appreciate the write up. Better said than I could myself.

I will also note that in my personal experience phone was more of a hail mary when I’d be doing like a wedding reception or private party and needed a tune for client that wasn’t already in my USBs. When the tip depends on it, yes, I absolutely DJ with the phone.

RinseDrizzle ,

Suuuuuch a weird movie lol

RinseDrizzle ,

Good time to roll a new character so it’s beefy when DLC drops.

Lol amazing! That was such a bizarre movie. Those fleshy controllers with the nipples are so unsettling.

Definitely going to miss that jump function.

It’s honestly so fucked…

As someone who lives with just their significant other, also yes.

Still trying to get this discipline down. Seems like all it takes is one or two bad days and then it’s fully off the rails again. Keep trying to avoid letting a 10 minute job turn into a 30 minute job. Pretty sure I stretch myself too thin between work and being pretty active in my socials and hobbies.

Never feels like I have enough time to maintain a tidy home.

RinseDrizzle ,

Time to roll up a couple new characters! Currently grinding up a witch bitch. Kinda want to do a Metal Gear Solid Snake build that focuses on sleeping peeps.

Hit me with your favorites FUN builds, ideally viable for PVP!

Obviously early as hell, any idea what level one should be for DLC content?

RinseDrizzle ,

Looking forward to the Vaati lore breakdown already

RinseDrizzle ,

Just git gud!

RinseDrizzle ,

Flying taxi game? I saw some pretty mixed feedback on that which turned me off from checking it out

RinseDrizzle ,

Lol, I mean fair

RinseDrizzle ,

There’s a sweet spot for sure. With FromSoft games the best strategy was often sleeping on it for a day. Gives the brain time to defrag and better learn moves, timing, etc. Coming back to Sekiro after an extended hiatus was pretty brutal though.

RinseDrizzle ,

Finally got bit by Slay the Spire. Definitely see why my buddy was tossing hella hours on it. Always enjoyed rogues and deck builders so I’m not sure why I was slow to hop on.

Cleared the first 3 heros, just trying to get the hang of the 4th now so I can get all runs cleared once. Biggest issue is my impatience – always notice a better combo after I finish the turn!

RinseDrizzle ,

Yeah, definitely gotta hit it soon! Add Demon Souls to that list too. For a moment I forgot all about it!

RinseDrizzle ,

I can definitely excuse some lack of polish and bullshit. Curious to see if the story is easier to follow – usually need to watch those vaatividya clips for the lore breakdown

RinseDrizzle ,

Bro Costco had the best deep dish ever. I still think about that shit. There’s been a hole in my heart for years.

RinseDrizzle ,

Played hard for a couple weeks but got bored kinda quick. Feel like I wish there were, idk, more things to do or story to unfold.

Was playing in a buddy’s server initially so maybe part of losing interest kinda quick was not wanting to run all the early game again solo.
