  1. Well since we're all reminiscing... Man we used to ride our bikes to the Hobby Shop at the Village, dream of buying model airplanes (or, since I'm a total nerd, Dungeons & Dragons stuff). We'd play Star Wars or Tron at the Handy Andy, and then when we got bored we'd ride across Anderson to Northcross Mall and hit the Gold Mine. Sneak into Spencer Gifts and giggle at the dirty posters and stuff. Then back to the Village for ice cream at Swensen's (if we were feeling flush) and on back home through the creeks with all the crawdads. Real vintage movie stuff. My 15yo son dreams of living the life I did in the 70s and 80s. I told him I'm the exact same age as the kids in Stranger Things and it blew his mind.

    Going to see it tomorrow. I am a big Formula 1 racing fan, so I am excite. Same problem I have with DtS but I'm sure I'll manage.
  3. Tilt was on the opposite side from where Gold Mine was. But yeah, broom ball, Gold Mine, and junior high kids. Recipe for... something, anyway.
  4. Ha! This is the first, and I'm pretty sure last, time I've ever heard of Joust referred to as an "adults' game." But of course my first love was tabletop Space Invaders at Scampi's Organ Grinder.
  5. Yeah it'll need to have an even better beer and Scotch selection than Pinballz does, to get me there. But I'm sure I'll hit it once just to erase all of you losers' scores from Galaga.
  6. Yup that was my usual go-to. Jack Allen's Kitchen has basically the same dish.

    I'm really gonna miss Fred when he retires.
  8. I was promised townies flinging Pabst bottles at my head, and townies I shall have, sir!
  9. Oh absolutely, totally agree. And a more recent chain of linked examples are the typewriter, then the word processor, then networked computer systems, and eventually the internet. All of these disruptors completely eliminated large segments of prior work, but they also created completely new areas of work. Multifactor productivity growth is the lasting legacy of technological innovation and I see no reason for that to change.
  10. Yeah. I think for most companies it's just going to manifest as progressively worse results, as capable knowledge workers are replaced by overly generalist AI agents. But at some point the AI capabilities will catch up and eventually supersede human capabilities for many tasks. That point might be 20 years down the road, or it might be 10. But it's almost certainly not 5, and the current rush to production is pushing for even sooner than that in many companies.
  11. I'm absolutely nobody's thread police, but for those who want to reminisce about long lost Austin joints (and recent ones) there's a pretty lengthy thread for it below. Z Tejas is the most recent entry there, of course.
  12. I stopped Watching Secret Invasion after a 3 or 4. I stopped watching She Hulk after 2. And I also never watched Loki 2. I liked the first Loki series well enough but I'm just completely burned out on the multiverse. I might give this a try. If my kids like it, I'll watch it with them.

  14. Haven't hit 100 at all at my house in NW Travis all year. It's been pleasant. Almost zero rain though, which sucks.
  15. Belgian beer is best beer. It is known. In addition to letting them warm up a little, pour off about 3/4 of the bottle, then take the bottle between your two hands and roll it back and forth to stir up the sediment, and then pour the rest into your glass. And those ales should go into something like this:
  16. I mean, you could also just look it up in traditional mainstream media. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-says-usual-cooperationith-un-nuclear-watchdog-cannot-go-forward-due-2025-06-30/
  17. He's really almost too good to be true and he reads exactly like AI. But then I think about the ags I know in real life who think, and talk, in this exact same way, and I become less sure of my position on the matter.

    Yeah I do more like 2-1.5-0.5 on baby backs. I also don't do a full 1 hour at the end on spares, it's usually closer to a half-hour. That's enough time to get them to firm up, without drying out too much.

    Wasn't nearly cringey enough. My wife loves watching the races, but the only part of any of the pregame she'll ever watch, is a Brundle grid walk. Because she loves the cringe.
