Yeah, gross. Please bring back the original Captain Pike.

Stopped at Target this morning and saw they had what must have been at least 100 of these on a cart with zero line. One dude strolled up to the girl at the counter saying "I know it's a long shot bu..." "Nope, we have plenty." Hopefully the eBay scalpers get wrecked.

Yup. A few coworkers and I played EQ in 2000 and one of them (a bit of a dumbass who made too much money) bragged about buying an SMR for the low, low price of...150 (real) dollars. No one was slinging those things around in their prime to random strangers as a potential entree to imaginary...

Apparently ~80% of you people if my years of playing Everquest are any indication.

I finally got some time in after buying this and apparently quickly forgetting about it back in 2017. How are the graphics this good 8 years later? With everything cranked up and HDR turned on it looks amazing. To boot, it rarely dips below 200FPS even @4K with 20+ characters on screen and...

Huh, looks like I bought this in 2017 and played it for all of 4 hours, I have virtually no memory of it. Was this the game that was loaded with loot box bullshit? Guess I'll download it.

Neumanns are awesome. I have the KH 150s (and a 750 sub) which are definitely overkill for the desktop, but my office opens up to a living room and you can crank them up to dance party levels and they fully fill the space while remaining clean.

The desk has less AIDS. The box in the middle? DAC/volume control for the speakers.

Keyboard up top means I'm too close to the big ass screen and speakers....wasn't fully a fan at first but I'm 100% used to it now. And the crew of hot Venezuelan maids (well there's one sloppy ham beast who joins once in a while) do their work every Friday, so the Cheetos dust and jizz can...

I use a 42" LG OLED for my desktop display. Over the course of ~40 years (jesus fucking christ) of computer gaming, it's about the most transformative single piece of gear I ever bought. But yeah, at 4K you need all the VRAM you can get your hands on unless you're okay with cranking...

Well that escalated quickly. With 5090s slowly working their way into stock I ran into an open box MSI Gaming Trio that allegedly contained an unused card at a "good" (lol) price - think mild ass molestation versus a 10 black guy gang rape. I picked it up, and the card was indeed virgin as it...

I was left wanting more, but that's much more compliment than complaint. I called the final Bix scene but it still effectively hit the feelz. K-2 was even better here than in Rogue One I probably said the same thing when season 1 ended, but it's really refreshing to have a prequel that actually...

I've not been keeping up on the 5 series but I'm seeing 5090s popping up in stock for more than 7 seconds at places, so of course the upgrade bug is being a bit of an asshole. I game at 4K with a 4090, and the only reason I'm even mildly considering the upgrade is that I can sell my card used...
