I love going back and replaying Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy on my PS2; awesome memories there. I really want to try out the OpenGOAL project

I’m currently moseying through Okami HD on my Switch. I’m enjoying it, though having a 4 month old limits how much I can play

I just finished Lieutenant Hornblower and am thoroughly enjoying the series. I’ll be starting Hornblower and the Hotspur soon.

Google sure is. Brave is a chromium-based browser - a browser that is built off of Google Chrome, so anything Google wants to put in their web browser to track you and devour your internet-soul is also in Brave and all the other “web browsers” that are just chromium skins like Edge.

This is an excellent analysis! I just watched “The Inner Light” for the first time recently, but it has been a while since I’ve seen “Puhoy”; I’ll have to revisit it soon.

First, I have to recommend Way of Ramen’s YouTube channel; he makes great videos, and I use several of his recipes in my Ramen.

I make WoR’s super simple Shio tare to start Ingredients:

• 450ml Water
• 70g Sea Salt
• 25ml Hon Mirin
• 7.5ml rice Vinegar
• 25ml Usukuchi shoyu
• 5g caster sugar
• 2.5g (1/2tsp) msg

Directions:

• Bring 450ml of water to a simmer
• Add salt, stir to dissolve
• Add mirin, sugar, shoyu, vinegar, 1/2tsp MSG Stir, then let cool and store

The bowl of ramen contains the following:

• 36ml Shio Tare
• 1Tbsp Chicken fat
• 400ml Hot water (or chicken stock or any good soup you have on hand)
• Pre-made noodles (look up Hakubaku or j-basket, both should be on Amazon or in your local Asian market)
• Toppings:

• Green onions
• Sautéd Red Bell pepper (skip if I’m not in the mood)
• 1/2lb. Fried chicken tenders (the stuff from Publix is magic if you’ve got one near you)

This can all be done in one day, but the tare recipe makes enough for at least a dozen bowls, so you’ll just warm it up later.

I’ll have Sir Patrick Stewart soliloquizing about space followed by a rad fanfare as I get breakfast.

Sounds pretty cool to me.

One day we’ll have faster-than-light spaceships and computers the size of a human hair, and we’ll still be making Doom run on them

I kinda feel like Wes was the enlightened 24th century child who is validated, supported, and taken seriously by people who want him to succeed.

Except for when the writers just have the rest of the bridge crew be mean to him (“shut up, Wesley”). He makes a really good point in “Datalore” (S01E13) when telling Picard that if he was any other officer and not a teenager, his concerns about Lore impersonating Data would have been taken seriously.

We did skip a lot of Season 1, so maybe that helped my perception of him.

That looks so wonderful! I do wish I could spend more time exploring nature (work has me very busy these days).

My wife and I recently moved to a small town with a privately owned, 2000 acre forest preserve; we took a picnic lunch just a short way in a while back, and I desperately want to explore more of it.
