I loved the lore of the movie. Demons being haywire nuclear reactors was a fantastic pitch, but I was shocked when the brothers went from the opening act -- pensive, intelligent, wary -- to complete bumbling morons who failed upwards towards the end. I have read a theory that the MC was so stupid, in fact, that it was intentional -- the demon guiding him towards all the wrong decisions.

The Dark and the Wicked was another almost fantastic one. Great vibe, acting, atmosphere and sense of dread but too much mustard on the hotdog for key scenes. The fuzzy demon man pulling an Insidious around the frames was very silly, and ending on an actual jumpscare cold cut-blackout sucked. Another example I could give is the best scene in the movie, the Priest reappearing at night to come outside. Made my skin crawl until the goofy-ass closeup of his face.

Burgers need to be well done, no questions asked. You don't mess with pink/red minced meat that is only graded for cooking and not tartar grade. Your burgers are dry and rubbery because the beef quality is F tier at grocery stores, your aluminum pan sucks, etc.

Steaks are medium rare at all times.

The entire movie is centered around the opening night of a haunted house attraction that goes instantly wrong. The first ten minutes are found footage of the tour. Arriving at the basement door a horde of people are screaming to run, and it honestly built up some effective dread with whatever the hell was going on down there. I thought they effectively built up enough atmosphere around the opening night that I was excited to see the reveal.

The rest of the movie is a series of tapes from the team who run it, and frankly not a whole lot happens except some disjointed cliche scares. But "movie rules" wise, everything seemed alright. After over an hour of buildup, we get to the footage of the basement from opening night. I leaned forward in my chair.

The security guard they hired runs out. They reveal there's a tall man in the corner of the room who isn't an actor, in robes. The actress, chained up on the wall, is yelling a lot. The man approaches her. The film cuts. The film cuts back in, she's on the ground alone. a cgi portal to hell opens underneath her. The end.

Dude.

Well like with the UFO thing. No one can explain a lot of the UFO sightings right now. Videos of strange lights and objects moving in ways that we think are impossible. We cannot explain how these objects are moving like they are, or even if they're real, but at some point we will.

Okay so I bit into it hook, line, and sinker from 2019 until last year. There... aren't aliens, man. I'm sorry. What is happening, has happened, and will continue to happen is R&D black book / skunkworks getting shaken up by budgetary saber rattling because they take unimaginable amounts of wealth into creating ridiculous shit. They always have. It's just that our technology under the whiteout is catching up to what people think aliens can do.

DoD has talked about Roswell in length, they were very special radar balloons basically set to match nuclear detonation frequencies. It plopped down on a farm.

Innumerable reports are the SU-71. Look at that fucking thing in google and then check out the production date and imagine what we have now. Its successor, some abominable sci-fi nightmare called the SR-72 is suspected to be behind many high altitude UFO sightings, as well.

With my stance and logic, the only eyebrow raiser was the whistleblowing. But legally those didn't amount of anything, he's also not dead, and he has produced no evidence for years and his story has "adjusted" too many times due to "clearance" changes.

Yes, to a degree, like an inverse Pascal's Wager.

But my primary one being... what if you're right? Do you know how turbofucked you'd be if something out of the Goetia was real?

From pissing on gravestones to burning human hair to scorn an ex and everything inbetween I think at best they're signs of serious mental trauma and flights of fantasy/disassociation, at worst yep you just summoned Balam. Have fun.

There's credence to it, but a long time ago. It is how the Lost Alpha was programmed and people unwisely assumed ShoC on release was the same. It kind of was, but it got rapidly and silently patched and the rumor stuck.

From what I heard they were solid but because they were so limited just being a duo with no guitars they were a heard one heard em all band, which it sounds like theyve addressed but in a bad way.

That's a fantastic way to put it. Typhoons is really when the cracks appear (All the main singles are terrible radio playtime singles.) but it still has a few good songs. Million and One or Mad Visions would have been a much more fun direction to take the sound rather than anthem choruses and synths.

I first heard these guys open for Qotsa way back in the day like 2018-2017 and they blew the roof off the place, but I never gave them too much of a shake until recently. I genuinely like the first two albums and a few songs on Typoons are okay, but a certain dance hall/electronic vibe and very poppy lyrics started coming in. Their latest album is off the rails, sounding like Coldplay discovered cocaine for the first time. Really bad stuff.

Anyone else listen to them? Any opinions on the genre change?

Edit: For those who haven't they started as a rather aggressive but melodic bass/drum duo with some great riffs and hooks and a very Queens style clean vocal approach, but their latest album has synths, orchestras, pianos, strings and other bullshit lol

Make sure the PSU switch in the back is turned on. Triple check the alignment of those dumbass front panel connectors, those horrible little shits being even one off (+ or -) has the potential to stop the rig from completely booting. I hate these cables with my huge hands and their tiny, demonic connectors.

Go back to step zero. Make sure your standoff screws are all fully secured and no wire got pinched inbetween the case and motherboard.

Inspect CPU and socket, make sure nothing bent. Reseat, reapply thermal paste.

If using 4x RAM sticks, try taking a pair out and alternating. If using 2x sticks, swap where they are (e.g: #1-#3 to #2-#4)

Make sure all modular cables in the psu are connected fully, and not halfway/unsnapped, as that can create a short. Same goes for where they plug into.
