The Flood / Re: Who remembers the Nokia Lumia 1020?
« on: September 13, 2021, 11:41:51 PM »
Yee
The whole Lumia line had great cameras.

And ran windows phone. Man that was a great OS.
man it really was, I clung to it until they officially stopped pushing security updates

the only problem with the platform was nobody was developing for it

Would I be wrong to assume everyone who posts here is NOT a fan of Apple/iPhone like me?

My choice would be either Google Pixel 5 or Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra.
I dropped apple like a decade ago, then tried the iPhone 11 for a few months before dropping it again.

Got a galaxy s21 now

I'm honestly seeing so much connection between what's happening now and the onset of WW2. Jihad rule is the next Nazi rule. Fascists are fascists, no matter how you dress it up. Godwin's Law or not,  we are on the brink of another crisis here. There's an Axis in the Middle East!!! Do people not see this?

If you still need credibility from me
I called the trump coup in November, months before the January insurrection happened. I also saw the warning signs as early as September. Take what I'm saying seriously please. This almost makes me want to write or get involved or something. I've been wasting time on media when serious shit is going down.
but there's already a racially exclusive ethnostate that is murdering children and committing any genocides it needs to in order to make their country culturally pure

it's called Israel

Tfw no sol gf to cook for you when you get home from your job at the dollar store
Unfortunately I would probably leave for work before you and get home after you lol. I generally start dinner at 11pm and have it ready around 1, depending on what we're having.

As you can see steak and brussel sprouts is a regular thing at my house.

Fair enough. Working at a traditional African place right now, so I'm just used to pushback in regards to opinions. Makes sense as I'm the only white guy. Still kinda sucks when they can concoct some of the best dishes of my life, but scorn momo, poutine, or Lihapullat, alongside other dishes.

Spoiler
First is Nepalese, second Canadian, third Finnish. Tried different tastes.
bruh I make a mean poutine

I make duck confit and add the meat with the cheese curds, using the fat to make the gravy

Don't downplay that Louisiana/Cajun cookin'. Some of the BEST cuisine in the world. Kinda biased as I'm from and have worked in plenty of New Orleans kitchens.  :D

Spoiler
Hopefully you weren't thinking I was similarly downplaying your cooking. Mashed Potatoes are one of my favourite foods, and those were some of the buttery and best I've seen.
oh don't sweat it, I didn't take it that way and knew what you meant

just like I didn't mean to say anything diminutive about Louisiana cooking, I just meant it like, "right now I'm doing this, but I've also done that"

Wow. Seriously good looking pics. Are you legit a chef or in the food business or something?
a lot of what I've been doing for the last few years is training interns from culinary schools

pretty much any time I do line work it's in that capacity, and I focus on catering at other times

right now I'm training some interns from Louisiana, but I've also had students who came to the US on J1 visa from all over eastern Europe, China, and South America

As someone who has apprenticed in a 2-star Michelin restaurant, this is pretty good. Mashed taters of this quality (no matter how good they might look AND HOLY FUCK DO THEY) wouldn't pass though, just by appearance and texture.

If you are a chef Solo, everything else looks pretty excellent. Especially that beef in the first pic. Fat Mmm right there.
Yeah, I work at a country club. We're one of the top 25 in the country and next year we're setting the record for most times to host the PGA championship.

I've worked at a lot of other resorts and private clubs all over the country, in addition to fine dining.

The potatoes are the way I like them, not the way I would prepare them for service, so I definitely agree with what you're saying there.

btw I only took a pic for the fried egg because it had two yolks lol

The Flood / Re: ive never understood the term “nsfw”
« on: July 19, 2021, 02:47:32 AM »
the term dates back to when computers were less ubiquitous in our lives and people who needed to work with a computer and an internet connection could realistically do anything they wanted as long as their work was done

it's difficult to compare being one of a handful of guys in the office who actually needed to be online in the late 90s against dicking around on your phone in the modern workplace

The Flood / Re: Converse or Vans?
« on: May 23, 2021, 06:03:13 AM »
actually a tough choice

the only canvas shoes I wear these days are a pair of Tom's for around the house or just when I'm in a hurry, but back in the day I alternated between converse hi-tops and vans authentics pretty frequently

I picked converse though because even though I think that I'd be more attracted to a pair of authentics today, I definitely owned a lot more chucks through the years, maybe even twice as many pairs

You guys caught me at the very tail end of a major depressive episode so you didn't get to see that much of who I used to be.
More or less the same case for a lot of people here. Probably why it became such a cesspool, if you think about it. This has never really been a healthy community.
That's why sometimes I worry about the people that vanished from this place without warning and never came back.

If they were battling their inner demons I just hope that they managed to get better and find happiness. If leaving this site was for the better for them then I hope they're all doing okay.

You never know, this place could have been the source of some their misery.

Maybe leaving it freed them.
ಠ_ಠ noises

whiny cunt. jk

I never got into any serious drama here, but then I suppose it would be because I'm not very "different" or controversial in any way either. For what it's worth, I'm regret not jumping in for anyone's defence which has contributed to this about as much as the cruel things that were said.

I still don't know what draws Anarchy has - I think my only thread there was recently (last year lol) asking what it's purpose was. I don't care for shitting on people I barely know for absolutely no reason, and I've got all the weird porn I could find on the internet rather than here at the mercy of someone else's... tastes...

I hope you get better, in all manners.

We made of guys like RomanGladiator a lot for his unfortunate outcomes then one day he vanished and never came back, all without warning too. This guy had the absolute worst luck if all of his stories ended up being legitimate.

Oh man that fucking guy, I forgot about his escapades lol.

I get what you mean, there's no real way to confirm the stories of most of us here without risking exposing ourselves to further ridicule (Deci springs to mind). Then there's the older ones who dropped off the map like Dustin (banned), or the rich kid BC1096 (or whatever the numbers were). I remember he had his Snapchat up here and he posted a for a few years and then around the time he stopped coming here, his posts there stopped too. Wonder what he'd be posting now with shit like GME and Dogecoin.

There's even the mad bastards on that other tankie forum, now that's some long-running crazy cult drama going on over there.

I think the last time I've interacted with people from here has been on the PS4 Community (killed by Sony, F), and that time some of us played Halo Reach (not the one notinvolving Ian and that whole story).
the rich kid bc who was ashamed of the fact that he was privileged and pretended to be a self made stock market millionaire at 17?

yeah I don't have any curiosity to hear him ramble about crypto, although I do remember from b.net that RC was super into crypto before it exploded in '14 and I would actually be interested in hearing what he has to say about what's going on now

idk if he's still around I just haven't seen him in a while

I have gone through a lot in the last seven years.

I was going through a really hard time when sep7agon was started, my family was falling apart, my parents were struggling with drug and alcohol addiction, and most of the time it felt like they were taking out all their pain and anger on me. Things only got worse after I finished high school, and I struggled with some more minor substance abuse issues of my own, which were at times exacerbated by poor relationship decisions. A few years ago I finally started getting my shit together, and now I have a mostly normal life and a decent, somewhat fulfilling career as a chef. In this time I've lived in seven different states. Tomorrow, I'm starting another new job at a casino where I'll be in a supervisory position in one of their food venues.

Here's what I looked like at the beginning of 2014
And this morning

As you can see I'm much less blurry than before.

Is shipping not an option?

If not just fly there
No, they make you pick it up in store to discourage scalpers.

I have to pick it up on Wednesday, so it would cost more to fly. It would also take just as long, if not longer because all the flights have layovers in DFW.
you must really love the guy
I don't know about that, we like each other well enough and have been living together for about a year, but two people don't really need to be head over heels in love with each other to do nice things for one another.

He's been trying to get me a 3070 since my birthday, but hasn't been able to get his hands on one. I'm about a month late snagging the ps5 for his, but we're both decently patient ig.

I managed to snag him one at msrp for his birthday, but now I have to drive 6hrs to pick it up from Best Buy in Memphis.

I'm grateful to have been able to get one at all, but seriously, fuck scalpers.

Can't wait for the part where Mechagodzilla comes from nowhere and then just breaks for literally no reason
the mechagodzilla origin is still in there, cutting out bernie had no effect on introducing him since they don't actually affect the plot in anyway, although the mechagodzilla cuts were some of the hardest to do

like this scene where mechaghodzilla glitches, it comes off like he's just in distress from being more or less evenly matched to kong, and his glitch comes across to me as akin to the face kong makes in strain, I swear it's almost like they made this movie before filming the b plot

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/266982111699795969/829909598164090890/NoWhiskeyNoProblem.mp4

Mechagodzilla was wrecking Kong and Godzilla both and got bested by the soy gang
That's some bs

yeah it's like the least earned bullshit of all time

it feels so much better for kong and godzilla to just overcome their common enemy by working together, which is more or less what happened anyway, since pretty much the only thing outside of their cooperation that the soys had an effect on was whether or not mechagodzilla's tail drill worked, so I just kinda cut out the shot where the drill stops spinning since you can't even see it in the shot where they work together to btfo him with the axe

but the inference that russell form deadpool 2 could beat mechagodzilla by spilling some booze on the console is just painful

They did Kong so dirty jobbing to Gojira.

Instead of Mecha Godzilla, it should have been Apex building Kong a Mechsuit to beat down Goji.
