    How much income is enough?

    I have total compensation of around 125k in the bay area as a single guy. I can't complain but I'm sure as hell no baller. If I made another 50k I'd be happ(ier.) My base pay will be about 125 in a couple of years. At some point I may be able to move up to a position that gives me up to 10...

    Civil engineering career thread

    I have that Van Sickle book too, paid $120 for it on E-bay years back. I just picked it up for the first time in forever this week. We used an HP48 for data collection back in the early 2000s. It's actually pretty damn intuitive. My dad has / had Recons in the past too.

    DOTA 2

    I'm sure they have their logic, but damn. Seems like Newbee lacks late game. (Note: I haven't played a ranked game of Dota in 2 years.)

    Civil engineering career thread

    I've known lots of people over the years who have taken it and passed. Some of these people, if you were to meet them, there's no way you'd think they're at all intelligent, and they can pass it. Surveying attracts some real redneck types, at least where I came from, and you think to yourself...

    Civil engineering career thread

    I've worked in surveying / civil engineering since I was a teenager. (mostly surveying.) My dad is a licensed surveyor, and is essentially a civil engineer too, except he's just not licensed for that. I started drafting survey jobs around 15 years old. Graduated high school, went to college...

    There's virtually no women who don't like a finger in their ass during doggy. I've met one who was staunchly against it, and no surprise, she was a horrible, boring fuck in general. I've been with many women who downright demand it since it's the only way they can cum from vaginal intercourse.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This show has been wearing on me lately, as it's usually Daenerys that does it. I hate her plot line, I hate her dialog, Emilia Clarke sucks shit as an actress. It's grand they're, oh geeze, FINALLY doing something with the dragons, but with that retard Emilia coupled with some iffy graphics...

    Dunkirk (2017)

    I just saw this in IMAX. I had no problems understanding what was being said, the voices came out very clear even with the accents. Weird some of you had that issue. Very good movie, not at all cliched in its making.

    The Mummy (2017)

    Eh. I saw this movie tonight, despite the fact I usually avoid Tom Cruise these days. I really didn't think it was that bad. It's nothing groundbreaking or award winning, but for a mainstream movie I thought it was pleasant summer fare. It was undoubtedly corny at times, and it could have...

    I bought an S8+ for shits and giggles. I haven't bought a new phone in three years (was using an iPhone 6+.) I don't follow tech news and didn't even read about it much, but wanted to check out Android again for a while. Seems cool so far, obviously a big upgrade in speed and screen quality...

    General Purpose MMORPG Thread

    So I haven't followed MMORPGs in years (occasionally randomly click on these threads but never for more than a few minutes at a time.) Really haven't played anything with regularity since 2003 EQ, and of course in very small sporadic spurts I've played WoW and other stuff like Rift for a month...

    I live like 10 minutes away from Alameda. From where you're at, uhh...I think I'd just wait until you get your car in. It's either gonna be $50-60 round trip Uber, or by public transportation it'll be a maze of trains, buses, and BART taking an hour and a half each way. Which I suppose could...

    Eh, it's only about a 30-35 minute drive to the city when traffic isn't an issue. Personally I dislike the peninsula and Silicon Valley in general (I'm certain it has lovely places to visit / hike / eat at, I just think it's very bland and lacking character.) I briefly dated a woman who lived...

    I have to agree with Keg to some extent on this. A friend asked me to go watch this with her last night. Disclosure: I'm not the biggest fan of Star Wars. I like the original movies, I've seen them maybe twice each, I never saw those shitty newer ones, and I watched the one that came out last...

    I had a low level character named "Guild" and for the brief times I'd play it as an auction mule I'd constantly get tells of people who meant to chat in guild text but instead sent a tell to guild.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think it's probably part not even really knowing what to do (I don't read about the game at all,) and part unsure I want to play rogue anymore and definitely being too lazy to level up something again, even from 100.

    I knew this would happen (as it has with every MMO I've tried to play for the past 10+ years.) Got to 110 finally last week, played maybe 10 hours after that. Haven't logged in for days, can't motivate myself to.:D

    I never really bought into the hype of this game, I bought it, I'm only level 36 or something like that, so I don't play super often. Every time I DO play lately, I'm instantly annoyed by D.Va and Tracer faggotry and just quit after a game or two. Really tons of fun playing against teams with...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Correct, it was Pouty. I know some people quit because of him, just that no one ever particularly made a big huff about it. The loots rolled in so people didn't make waves. I wouldn't be surprised if some people paid him for loot rights either because sometimes he'd give shit to people who...

    Aside from not having the time, angry Aspie nerd guildleaders with no lives outside of the game is a big reason why I stopped raiding Everquest in 2003 and was only sporadic before that anyway.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Wow, that still functioned like that in recent history? I'm almost certain that existed back when I played. I remembered not wanting to duel necromancers in EC because sometimes people would pile on while you were feared and kill you with DoTs which would cause you to die with lost XP.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I always enjoyed weirdass bugs that you discovered by accident. Two come to mind, circa 2001-2002 maybe. After one patch, for a day or two you could cast shaman epic on players. I tried not to kill anyone with it, and it's a pretty weak DOT, but it was fun freaking out people in the EC...
