Without contacts I'm around level 2-3 on that scale. It's difficult to compare since many features look much worse in the blurred picture than they do in real life. However, getting the text sufficiently blurry makes the rest of the picture too blurry, if that makes sense.

Looking at buying a XFX Core Edition 7870 GHz Edition 2GB instead of a GTX 600 Ti. At the same price, how much faster is the 660 Ti, and does anyone have experience with the heat / noise from the XFX card? I believe it's a reference design with a single fan so I am worried.

Yep, same one. I ordered about 4pm EST on the 26th. It didn't go OOS for a couple hours after that so I thought I was in the clear. Then they trick me by saying the order is being processed through the warehouse for shipping so I didn't even look for a replacement during black friday / cyber...

So I ordered a 660 Ti GC from Tigerdirect a week ago. It was processing for a couple days, then it was backordered. Then the order was sent to a warehouse for shipping, then it's backordered again. No estimate on when it's ready. It was 180 before a $40 mail in rebate, so I feel like it's as...

Did Denver take notes from the Chargers last season about how to blow a 24 point halftime lead?

Think DK is regretting throwing vs Speed and letting them into the playoffs?

Not trying to be an Apple hater, but why would you ever want an iPad if you mainly use it as a sketchbook? Galaxy Note tablet will destroy it in accuracy and input lag, and any decent Windows tablet with a Wacom stylus will crush a Galaxy Note. Even a cheapo tablet with an N Trig stylus is...

Having the start menu be an overlay instead of full screen is much more functional. Your focus can remain on the windows you have open. With the default full screen start menu, your focus is forced 100% onto the start menu, which is generally unnecessary and frequently disruptive. One example is...

Speaking of casting, I crack up every time I see Lysander casting, especially when he is solo. Dude just talks and talks and talks in that goofy accent and gets so excited. I think he does a good job overall, and everything is more entertaining in partially broken English.

I wouldn't be surprised except I was in solo queue.

I was just in a solo queue game. Game starts going badly for us, then 3 people disconnect simultaneously. I checked their steam profiles and they are all from Peru. After we lost I made sure my settings were indeed solo queue when alone. Someone solve this mystery. Did the entire country of Peru...

What sort of defense is that? "I was just kidding about hiring hitmen to kill my business partner. But once my employee agreed with me, I had no choice but to go through with it. I was entrapped!" Hilarious.

Yeah that was a legendary throw. Mid lane down, t3 top and bottom down, all lanes pushed, and remaining melee raxes at half hp, then fast forward 2 minutes and they are against mega creeps.

EG vs VP - EG is slow sieging VP's top and bottom simultaneously. At least 3 times now, they've launched an all-out attack on the melee rax, gotten it to half hp or maybe lower, then it fully regens before the next engagement. With the new patch removing regen from ranged raxes, wouldn't it make...

Orbs never worked THROUGH ghost scepters. They only worked FROM ghost scepters.

That unnecessary roughness call on the Chargers... what a joke. Defender turns around and the receiver leans forward into his helmet = penalty on the defense. Chargers don't deserve to win this anyways due to their horrid goal line offense to end the game, but it's sad that the refs are gifting...

I know Ryan Mathews isn't very good, but when you have the ball on the one yard line and he's had two 100-yard games in a row, why give it to Danny Woodhead? It reminds me of when we had Sproles and kept trying to run him up the middle on the goal line and it failed comically 99% of the time...

I was wondering what the deal is with the husband - it was so out of place to spend that much time on him then have him shoot that girl. I wonder if he's just a psycho murderer or if he has a bigger agenda. I'd be bummed out if he's simply a murderer - it would be interesting if his marriage is...

Mouz just rode bristleback to victory against Speed Gaming. I would love to see BB become a competitive pick. With his improved attack animation, improved goo cast point, and improved ult duration / stacking he is pretty potent both as a tank and as dps. Was funny watching a bristle go treads...

This topic reminds me of this comic:

Since updating to windows 8.1 I've had a couple instances where my laptop hangs during boot up or when washing from sleep. The Wi-Fi activity light will stay lit, but the light for disk activity never lights up. The screen doesn't display anything either, not even the initial lenovo logo. I have...

Being able to stun SB when he's casting his ult is my favorite change when I play vs him so far. Of course, it only really helps if you have teammates nearby, but with good coordination he's a lot less annoying. He's just as good as before at crushing people who wander around solo, though.

I have a first gen Nexus 7 and I have zero UI lag and no wifi problems at all.

I remember playing the original and dogfights taking like 30 minutes. It was glorious.

Now that the Surface Pro 2 looks to have acceptable battery life (6-8 hours of use instead of 4) that will get you through a day, I would definitely get one if I were in the market. The price is still quite steep, and it's silly that they don't include a touch or type cover since it's essential...

Hilarious how they introduced the iPad mini a year (?) ago and everyone with a brain knew they were just going to release a retina version next year to force everyone who cares about display quality to upgrade. What a joke of a money grab to wait a year to give people the screen they'd expect...

It would be hilarious to have skywrath and OD on a team just to see how many ults he could jizz out before he goes oom. Though to be honest 2-3 ults is enough to kill pretty much anything if you can land them.

Some of these changes are nuts: 5s cd on spellsteal for agh's rubick. Zero cooldown on skywrath ult with Agh's. Spectre can cast reality over and over between illusions while ult is active. No bloodseeker movespeed cap when thirsted, and thirsts from multiple heroes stack. Alch bonus hp...

^ Yep. Upon a (third) re-watch, it's so painful to watch Jesse ruin everything. Only a few things were Walt's fault (wanting to expand their territory, misinterpreting Gus several times, Mike's death). Jesse, on the other hand, was always upsetting the balance and ultimately causing the biggest...

If they had played it better during xboct's early tower dive it could have been a different game. Instead three of them die and xboct is level 6 or 7 before drow has boots.

Best quote from that article about Hoyer's knee:

Navi vs Poseidon: riki + wisp vs drow + troll. Oh yeah and there's a treant / abaddon / weaver combo as well as a pudge. Should be fun. EDIT: Never mind, it's 10-1 4 minutes in. EDIT 2: 25-5 9 minutes in.

Walt's ricin is 99 percent pure. And maybe a touch beyond that.

Yeah the forum stack game with rapier kunkka was fun stuff. I wanted to play trololol carry abaddon but I ended up doing support mode because I died stupidly a few times early game. There was a fight near the rosh pit where your tidebringer instakilled two of them. Still can't believe they...

VP vs Navi is an awesome game so far. Slow start but tons of critical teamfights down the stretch. Unfortunately, LoH is playing clockwerk and has spent half the game trapping his own team since for some reason he tries to cog the storm spirit over and over.

Heroes like Clinkz and Luna with awful animations are more of an issue in pubs where you have 4 people all trying to lasthit / deny the same creep. In a "real" lane where you are solo or supported, it's much easier since you can get into a rhythm and your high damage makes it easy to outhit...

Controlling drug release rate isn't a trivial problem, however. There is a lot of time and money spent on the research to make that possible. I don't know a thing about this specific system, but in our lab setting up a controlled release platform for a drug can increase the cost by an order of...

Chargers are looking tired. Pessimism rising.

It looked like he was still securing the ball and didn't possess it until one if his feet was in the air. I don't think they explained it very well though

What a lumbering ogre Rivers is
