    Everquest Confessions

    This was a specific situation if you had an old version of the zone file, the original from the CD, and managed to avoid letting the patcher overwrite it. I used the same bug to pull all the velks castle mobs to the Crystal Eyes camp. Good times.

    There shouldn't be a single AM4 motherboard incapable of running at 5900X at stock, provided it's supported in BIOS. Power delivery configuration is only relevant with overclocking (also excepting PBO, but that is overclocking).

    The Expanse

    And she owns a bra shop for large breasted women, no joke.

    Lovecraft Country

    There were literally zero white people in the episode. By the end of it, she realized that killing white people isn't what she wanted - she just felt helpless and that was an obvious target. Hippolyta found herself and found peace within without it being a full on race war... Honestly, the...

    I don't think you have a lot of options there in that case, since I don't think you can really move your AIO. I'll put in a vote for Lian Li O11 Dynamic - I've got my AIO as an intake on the side, and airflow coming from below with lots of cool air offsets the warmer air coming in through the...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    The Ventus is a rebrand of the Armor line - I remember how god-awful the 2080 Ventus and 1080 Ti Armor were. Might even be better off with the stock cooler (which is nowhere as good as people seem to think - it's novel and fits in 2 slots, but still way worse than a big ass 3-slot heatsink/3 fan...

    Star Trek: Lower Decks

    So... The Orville brings Family Guy to Star Trek, and now Star Trek decides to bring itself to Family Guy?

    Arctic has really taken the lead as incredible bang for buck in cooling. I highly recommend the Freezer 34 - a 120mm heat sink is pretty much commody at this point, everyone's are the exact same, but their fans are a huge cut above other 'budget' fan offerings. I actually replaced all my AIO...

    Ryzen's typically start running into issues above ~100 fps due to the memory latency and single cores running out of gas, where Intel's don't. But below 100 FPS you will pretty much never notice a difference between them, so it has more to do with what monitor you use (as well as GPU to a lesser...

    nVidia is pretty predictable, they release a new generation at GTC in late May every even-number year, and availability of non-FE cards (or in this case, any availability whatsoever) doesn't begin meaningfully until June. With the mining rush, who knows what this will look like.

    Toys R Us -- ruining a company is very lucrative

    Never heard of a leveraged buyout? 'Buy' a company on credit, but not your credit, no - the acquired company takes on the debt. So after you've juiced up your short term return on equity from the leverage, you can project out 10,000 years of compounding returns modeled on the good times and sell...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    That isn't even remotely true. Eth went from $10 to $300 from Jan through July 2017, while BTC went from $1k to $4k in that time. Then, from July through December, BTC went from $4k to $20k, while Eth held constant oscillating right around $300 that whole time - it didn't start breaking out...
