Broke out Tikal recently with the family. Uncovering temples and discovering treasure. Easy rules but also easy to overthink your turn. Nice comfortable easy-to-learn game for the family.

Years ago my wife and I were in Rome and went to Vatican City. All the tourist places nearby had this lenticular print of Jesus face as he hung on the cross. Hold it one way and his eyes were closed. Change the angle slightly and his eyes open. It was sooooo overwhelmingly tacky. Now I wished I’d bought it because it WAS so tacky.

I’m pretty much brand new to lemmy but the thought of having to switch instances to see cooking conversations after conversing about Raspberry Pi projects in a different instance just seems unwieldy. But I guess as long as my instances are all federating with each other I don’t need to switch instances. I’m a technical guy but this needs to be easier for joe sixpack or it’s not going to catch on. And if it doesn’t catch on there’s going to be less interesting content…

My wife got 50% off Lasik surgery in the early days of Groupon when they offered crazy deals. I thought it was really unwise to get eye surgery half-off. I’m usually a “you get what you pay for” kind of guy.

Turned out pretty well for her though.

We just bought a house and went with a 5 year ARM instead of 30 year fixed to get a 5.5% rate. Sure hoping that rates go down a little in the next 5 years so we can refinance and lock in at a decent fixed rate. Rolling the dice… : (

I thought it might be something like that. I may uninstall it anyway as it’s not particularly attractive.

Wanted to like it more than I did. Just didn’t think it was all that funny.

Now I thought Avenue 5 (HBO) was absolutely hilarious. It’s the funny I expected from Orville. Too bad it ended after 2 seasons.

Try Avenue 5 (It was on HBO)

IMO, it was much funnier than Orville. Space cruise ship goes off-course.

Libertarians are just Republicans who are embarrassed to admit it.
