Absolutely agree. Training without proper instruction at beginner levels isn’t going to do anything except embed a host of bad habits and poor technique that’ll be a nightmare to unlearn later down the line.

“Day 3. The canines have no idea that I walk among them…”

Paperweight / conversation starter. As long as you know it’s not real, it’s just a cool chunk of brass.

You wouldn’t say a texture is “greeble”.

Finished the first season of From. Big, Lost-esque mystery, excellent and plentiful gore effects, and superb performances all around from a mostly unknown cast. I don’t know how this show got to S4 without me ever hearing about it.

I don’t remember seeing pirated stuff before Dreamcast / PS1, although to be fair, I was at a lot of PC conventions back then grabbing freeware disks and stuff, so I probably saw a lot of pirated stuff without knowing what I was looking at, just by virtue of being too young to be into the pirating / modding community.
