Weekly Ramblecast 139: Electrons Surfing on Metal
Added 2024-02-06 14:00:12 +0000 UTCWe've survived atmospheric rivers and dudes boost-boarding down the street with giant VR things strapped on their faces to bring you this ramble about Vinny's small-town off-the-grid Internet, the inner workings of the Metroid password, the many uses of J-B Weld, and more.

Yeah, agreed, get through the movie while everything is still fresh in their minds. Return can wait til they're good and ready.

2024-02-10 17:17:49 +0000 UTCMy two cents: Do Fire Walk With Me pretty soon (and maybe also Missing Pieces), and then take a nice break and palette-cleanser before The Return. Like several months. It's not at all like a long-delayed season 3. It's its own thing that's more akin to a sequel.
