EZTV was one of my favorites, it still functioned after the takeover, but I felt dirty even checking it to see what shows were airing and when. Had to remove the bookmark because it was just to much of a habit.

Also, thanks for all your efforts, I may be enjoying one of your releases as I type this. Manageable file sizes for great quality always had me looking for your tag.

Your comment is doing the same disservice you are complaining about but for the opposite argument, implying strains don't have any play in the experience.

My partner keeps a weed spreadsheet with data on each strain (medical) with lineages, flavor profiles, smell profiles, a rating section, an effects section, and probably more I am forgetting. We have over a hundred different strains and I can confidently say strains do have different good's and bad's. This info is specific to myself and my partner, so the likes and dislikes of the effects and how we experience each strain is unique to us.

When I look at the data, it's clear to me that certain strains have different effects. For example, Green Crack is a chatty smooth strain with great flavor and taste, one of our favorites, we get it any time it's available. She has a strong aversion to spice flavor notes, we know what strains have what lineages that we didn't like with that flavor and know to avoid it. We have a red flag column to stay away from certain strains due to usually a combo of bad smell, taste, and effect.

Not to mention, we use it medicinally for pain, and mental health. I know certain heavy indica strains (mainly GG#4 and child strains) will give me phantom nerve pain and cause my heart palpitations (PVC's) to start a kick drum party in my chest. Most strains help with my insomnia but a few don't. Some strains help me focus through my ADHD while others will fragment my thoughts to unmanageable flows of high nonsense which isn't great to code video games with.

Just wanted to point out that strains can very much make a difference, although I generally agree you can't trust marketing like a shop saying they have groovier weed. In my opinion, there is a nuance to it more than weed is weed.

I used to be lazy and have a single folder monitored by Plex for TV and movies which ended up making almost everything wonky. Decided to straighten it up after several people telling me it was too confusing but I have to still go through and rename most of the things to get it recognized. This is exactly what I need, can't believe I have never heard of it. A thousand thanks to you.

Found The Rock's throwaway.

You guys over at Gaz have been making great strides in the ARPG genre, and in technical aspects of your own engine. I loved the added tech that came along with Ghost Rider and vehicle based movement powers/attacks. Are there any technical hurdles you guys are currently working towards overcoming?

I am really excited about the raids, how difficult is it coming up with engaging boss mechanics in the ARPG format?
