Seriously though, that looks so good. It makes me want to dive right into 1994 and not come out.

best part is they're each 2 inches thick so you can get some real height going with just a few

Same, though 250% and rising fastβ€”looking like 275% this week. I already have them and will see. I think we're two or three years apart, tops, so I guess this tracks?

I can't see shit lately, no joke. I can't believe how much it's degraded in the past couple of years. I was lucky; I had perfect vision for so long. Oh well!

Been debating whether I'd enjoy Pillars of Eternity! I loved the Black Isle games, but that was on desktop, and lately I've been zoning out on the Xbox and playing the Diablo series and No Man's Sky. I don't know if I can handle something turn-based on there, but too much desktop PC = neck issues.
