Betamax didn’t lose due to porn. VHS won as it was a lot fucking cheaper, you could buy a vhs for 499 or a 799 Betamax in 1982 or something ( don’t forget how expensive A/V equipment was back then). The price difference was pretty considerable. All the screens were shit, so pixels, colour and...

Just got back from seeing this and thought it was great. Feel old as fuck though as I watched the original in the cinema an eternity ago.

Absolutely, no longer number 1 thread in mmo. Swings and roundabouts tho, we’ve had plenty of nutters from the Pantheon community visit previously. In a couple of months there’ll be a flourish of falling gifs and the balance will be restored again.

It was pretty well known in BBC circles back in the 60s that Savile was a wrong un. My grandparents lived near TV Centre and worked at BBC post war for the remainder of their careers, my grandfather worked directly on Top of the Pops during the 60s right through till the late 70s, that was the...

Just watched that video at 1440p and it looked like shit. You can tell they don’t have artists, the whole thing just looks like they are going for realism but failing. They need someone to add some visual flair and style to the game and it’s design. Nothing original at all in any of it. Zones...

Ended up watching Bad Vegan last night. This stupid bitch got taken for 6 million dollars by her mentally unstable boyfriend. Not the greatest of watches but amusing nonetheless. Unsurprisingly, the mental boyfriend was friends with Alec Baldwin and he (Baldwin) wanted to fuck the chick in this...

Done a fair bit of climbing in the UK, Alps etc. Done a bunch of 6000m high treks and summits (ice work, rope work) in Nepal and South America. The highest I’ve peaked is 6500m which was Mera in Nepal. Done Annapurna circuit twice and been on a bunch of treks all over. For sheer beauty I’d...

You need to be amazingly fit, recover super fast and climb in less than ideal conditions, taking risks you’d probably not normally take. These mountains are brutal in less than ideal conditions, imperfect conditions add to the workload massively when climbing. There’s a reason why you see...

According to Reddit Visionary Realms have hired an HR Director and an Internal Communications Manager. Probably someone’s relative or some shit. Keep on grifting fellas!

100 foot wave. Docuseries about big wave surfing, mostly concerning Nazare. Very interesting and lots of holy fuck moments, the place is insane for waves due to it’s specific geography. Great documentary if you’re into action/sports, you’d honestly have to be batshit insane to surf some of the...

Still burned out here. Playing other less demanding games on and off and have taken on more at work as I’m looking to take early retirement, that’s made playing Poe leagues a non-starter. Also really don’t want to give GGG a penny more as I don’t agree with much of Wilson’s way of thinking. I...

Something like No script using the element picker. Depends on how dynamic the content is, works sometimes or works for a while then you might have to make a new rule.

Even back in 2010 when I last played it was full on buy grandmaster spells to compete. Shit was a nightmare. Gear wasn’t a problem at all as I got all the loot from a couple of raid nights on restarting but the spell things a total load of bollocks. By this point they decided to make masters...

Using hosts isn't the best approach to blocking ads, and I can guarantee that if you used that hosts file alone without ublock, you'd be seeing some ads. The best way to block is using a pi hole on your network, it's very effective at sink holing ads. For a start it's centralized, you can set...

They didn’t have good rewards but if you wanted bis items you did nearly every zone in the game. One thing I think Eq2 did right was most zones got a lot of use on release, heritage quest items were the best in the game and a lot of those required traversing multiple zones/dungeons/bosses/rare...
