Let's see if this link works. This is what I've slopped together.

Edit: I have a far better ATX case already that I was going to strip out and re-use, but I think the kids will go ape for the RGB and Viewing Window. Hell, half of why I'm going to bother building is because I realized it's a great learning experience for The Child

The one thing I would do is make sure you run the CPU by someone if you're going Intel. There were some hilarious wastes of sand out there in the last few gens.

No no f*** no, absolutely no Intel. They're the Boeing of computers

3 goals?
Snipah!

Nah, just a nose for the net....All 3 were scored within 3-5 ft. of the goal. One on the right side and two in the front.

I wouldn’t wanna net front battle the rugby guy. Send the tape to Cutter.

I agree. Throw them into a disease-infested ball pit while taking Instagram photos of your nuggets.

I was born and raised in the NE PA coal region, lived in the south for a couple of years while in the Army, lived in State College for a couple of years, and have been in the Harrisburg area for over two decades.

Most mom and pop places make a pretty decent hoagie, IMO. I'm eating one now, which is what prompted this post. In my teen years I worked at a hoagie shop (Tommy's, in Tamaqua PA). The rolls were heaven, baked locally. Unlike most places that use pizza dough for rolls. That's acceptable, but not the best.

They call them subs where I live, but I grew up with calling them hoagies. It hurts me to say "sub" when I order one at a place!

Personally, I’ve always felt that a good hoagie is better than a good cheesesteak.

For the last couple of decades I've only eaten chicken cheessteaks slathered with sauce and onions.

When I eat a good Italian hoagie I consider it to be a healthy choice because of the lettuce, tomato, and onions, lol.

My girlfriend in college was from westchester county north of nyc and they called them wedges . Never got used to that

Yeah, wedges is just an abomination, lol. I've honestly never heard that before.

Same here in Dutchess County. I don’t understand the point.

Exactly. A hoagie is a well-balanced meal, all in one.

It's situational for me. Sometimes, a nice hot roast beef sandwich dripping with au jus hits the spot.

I've never been a kink-shamer when it comes to what people put on their cheesesteaks and hoagies. There are some who say, "It ain't a cheesesteak if you put X, Y, or Z on it," to which I say, "Blow me."

So Amazon is 100% gonna do a James Bond (universe) tv show. Wouldn't shock me if there's a Moneypenny limited series or something.

I have a deep affection for the "enshittification" term that has kind of grown around this stuff.

So if I got this straight, Hackman’s wife died (possibly nude since the news repeatedly felt to need to mention Gene was fully clothed) due to aerosolized rodent shit a week before Hackman died of heart disease. The dog that was dead in the closet apparently wasn’t in a closet but in a cage or in a cage in a closet.
Sad story that just gets sadder.

I feel like that really doesn't answer anything from what I just read

The wife died from hantavirus, aka mouse poop particles in the air. Gene had Alzheimer’s and was 95. Between limited mobility from age he had limited cognitive capabilities. About a week later he died from heart disease.
Hopefully during the week she was lying there dead on the floor he never had a moment of clarity.

That's sad...I chunky I read, and it makes sense, he was super dependent on her
