    What vehicle do you drive?

    Most cars are completely mundane and indiscernible from each other. To me, all trucks look about the same. Most sedans look the same. Only a few cars, like 911s , Beetles, and G-Wagons are so iconic they are immediately identifiable. Even Ferrari's no longer stand out when the new Corvette...

    Maybe someday when you are no longer poor you can begin to understand the concept of angel investing.

    I know this isn’t the right forum, but you may want to check out board gaming. It’s amazing how advanced it’s gotten, and I’ve had a great time playing board games with groups of friends, with dates and even by myself. It’s a great way to unplug from a screen.

    I couldn’t name a single game produced from any of the developers mentioned in the past few posts, my guess is most of us couldn’t. So basically just start up and investor money flushed down the toilet, but to be fair, if you gave money to these companies expecting to generate a profit, you...

    Land Rovers are shit cars that are used solely as status symbols by trophy wives who know nothing about cars or maintenance. At least in LA. So yeah, avoid like the plague and take any warranty available. Their systemic problems are legendary.

    The only thing I remember using 2 screens was when The Division was first announced, and they had the interesting idea of someone using their laptop/ipad and controlling like a drone that could mark targets for their teammates. I think they even did a demo with it, someone was playing either a...

    Well, not every business caters to the minority. Certainly none of mine. But I can definitely see your point, especially those companies that have a DEI division.

    I would say something along the line of - companies are in the business of making money, government is in the habit of burning it. Everything you stated would not exist or be sparse if it wasn't for government rules and regulations.

    On the one hand, you say it's good and it's probably actually a good game. On the other hand, Dave appears to be a fat slob surrounded by the usual diversity hires, not sure what that fatty in the pink shirt is suppose to be. I hope the game is first-person perspective, if it's third person...

    Yea, but work is different from home. Lot's of businesses use multiple monitors. I'm guessing people shouldn't be gaming at work. Now, the question is, how many of those people also have two monitors at home, where they are likely to be gaming? Like everyone at your work has two+ monitors...

    I think you are overestimating the number of people using two monitors. I did a quick search, there was a PC gamer survey that had it at 15%, then there was another Steam survey that had it at 25%. It must be even lower in general population, you figure the Steam survey would be biased towards...

    It's amazing. I went down the rabbit hole. She went to Palos Verdes High School, which is a rich, white area in Los Angeles along with Palos Verdes Estates (even more tony), so she comes from white privilege. Went to USC in the 90s, so wasn't that bright, the school was known as University of...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah, the car is definitely simpler engine-wise than the computer-driven monstrosities of today. My own issue is that my car is (almost) all original, matching serial numbers, etc., and it has provenance. So when a part needs to be replaced, I have to hope the part is available from stripped...
