    it's the peeling and the chopping that does me in

    the best stock recipe I've ever tried doesn't have you peel or chop much

    onion skins, celery leaves, unpeeled carrots, it all goes in along with your bones, skin, and what have you. you strain it at the end.

    but when you're turning the stock into soup later, yeah that's a fair amount of chopping

    Chopping what : (

    Stock, whole steaks, potato quarters maybe. No chopping required.

    I just beat Batman: Arkham Asylum.

    The bosses were pretty lame and there's a big part of the game that felt tacked-on to me.

    But the rest of it was pretty dang good IMO. I really liked the Riddler challenges, the combat system was a bit silly at times, but still rather fun and the voicework was fan-fucking-tastic.

    Play City now.

    It is a way better game but keeps the good parts of Asylum and builds on them. With more area to explore and way better Riddler stuff.

    these days i just tell people to skip asylum. get right to the good stuff.

    I liked Asylum but I think it is mostly because it was a hell of a trip when I first played it. Like a great B:TAS episode but more adult even. Of course it basically was between the voice acting and writing.

    there's a reason Pixar et al have settled on this look. Like the cartoon animals of old, it's relatively easy to use to express emotions given extant technology. Widespread photorealism will not be with us for a while.

    once this animation technology devolves to the masses, inventive animations will become more widely produced, and consumed by a generation coming of age at that time - not elaborate photoshops of a single frame that only took several seconds in a Pixar render farm, but more elaborate productions. Photorealism will still remain beyond the horizon, but there will just be a new set of good-enough anthropomorphization standards.

    yeah. best stock is essentially made from remnants. carrot peels, carrot tops, celery leaves and bases, onion peel, potato peels, parsley stems, chicken carcass skin and fat, beef bones, etc. cook for a while then strain off the stock.

    the only problem is that it forces you to kind of cook an extra thing that you're not going to eat with this meal, so it sort of requires planning.

    AssCreed 1 is a great game if you are willing to pace yourself.

    I absolutely adore the crusade setting, Altair was a very interesting character for a videogame lead (not generic white guy), and the controls, while rough around the edges, made for a more visceral and challenging combat. Counter kill/killchaining 17 people in a row was impossible back then, and running from fights was much more important.

    It just got repetitive as fuuuuuuccck, which is not an issue if you limit your play sessions to one assassination.
