Anyone remember "War of the Monsters" on the PS2? Such a fun monster mash single-screen multiplayer game.

The real reason? No one wanted it nor asked for it.

The fact that Lemmy/Kbin is weird and inaccessible to most normal people actually makes it perfect for Redditors. in c/[email protected]

Regardless of the success (or failure) of the blackout what's important is to create an alternative platform to Reddit. The blackout doesn't have much legs because of the lack of alternative. Deep inside we all know that many will just go back to reddit once the blackout will end - it's why the importance of creating an alternative.

Keep boosting Lemmy.

Review: Buy it on sale - RecTeq 380x (lemmy.world)

I've always been a fan of the Bullseye, but the units have had issues with grease fires (primarily), but all in all - love design and parallels to the classic Weber Kettle (my all-time favorite grill tool). With this in mind, RecTeq now offers an upgraded and improved Bullseye now callled the 380x. Is it worth the additional price?

RecTeq 380x is not worth the additional $350 but fixed a major issue from the original Bullseye. The original 380 Bullseye had a firebox that was recessed on the bottom of the "kettle."

Often times during cooking, grease would drip down and then get into the firepot causes grease fires/flare ups. The new 380x solves this by raising the firebox so that it's now 2 inches above the bottom of the "kettle." In addition to the firebox adjustment is an upgraded wifi control that accepts both 5 ghz and 2.4 ghz Wifi. Also, improved base and wheels - much more sturdy than the flimsy base/wheels of the original 380 Bullseye.

Is it worth an additional $350? Absolutely not, but if the unit goes on sale (which RecTeq often does) - that's when to pick this Pellet grill/smoker up.

Regardless my concerns on the increased price, I do love this unit - i also love that Bulleyes (old and new) can use many Weber parts: grates, rotisserie, expansion, etc. So fans of Weber Kettle grills - will get a kick out of the RecTeq Bullseye - hopefully someday, they'll lower the price and discontinue the original 380.

Usually don't post Youtube channels, but "The Hook Up" did a good review on locally controlled doorbells: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XCu6L0xn4Y

It's because it's using Ubi's Open World engine - all they do is swap out voices/sound and art. Outlaws is basically a Far Cry/Assassin's Creed Star Wars Theme.

Hope that someone creates a Lemmy view much like old.reddit - way too spread out for me right now. Please, someone build this. :)

What value did you get from Reddit that you hope to realize or expand upon here? in c/[email protected]

Product reviews, restaurant recommendations (regional searches on Reddit for Vacationing/etc was awesome), tourist recommendations - this was the truly useful part of Reddit that will take Lemmy a very long time to catch up to.
