    College Football 2022-23 Season.

    The reality of the situation is that the more teams you add to the playoffs, the less exciting the regular season becomes. This is going to go 1 of 2 ways...and both suck. A) 12 to 16 team playoff....if you are ranked 1 - 12/16....your in. This means all your popular teams now can afford to...

    The roadblock you will most likely run in to is when you hit the daily chaos / guardian treadmill. This is where I believe that a majority of the player base either A) quit B) started betting. Very quickly you will hit that treadmill and you just have 1 main, you have 30 mins to an hour of...

    I think it was more so the government and its fucking retarded response to Covid. Govt tells most of the population they cant go to work. Govt then tells everyone they cant leave their homes either for the most part. All sources of recreation and entertainment shut down. Govt then says "...

    HDMI cable most likely. I dont know the science behind it either, but I had a similar problem when I hooked up my 4k projector to my receiver. Swapped the cable and all was well.

    Granted, I only have about 300 hrs or so in PoE. In that 300 hours of playing, and having 6+ tools at 90+....I never once...not a single time....excited when loot dropped. PoEs Loot system and gearing system was so complicated that I never knew the value of anything that dropped.

    One of the top streamers of this game got banned and admitted he was altering files and gear so he could make more build guides.

    What are you playing?

    Guild Wars 2....played at launch about 10 years ago and quit. Game is in a pretty good spot now. No matter what single player game I get, I can't seem to stay interested too long. Played primarily ESO for the past 4 to 5 years and have given it up with all the changes.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    I've always suffered from upgradeitis when it comes to monitors and by the time I got what I wanted....something bigger or better came down the pipeline. Having said all that, I upgraded to an 48 inch LG C1 based on a bunch of recommendations and like it so much that I don't foresee any more...

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    I think one of my main issues are that some games have such awful areas that I quit out of spite and never even bother playing it enough to finish it. When I think about how long I've been gaming and how long it's been my hobby, I can't believe how few games I've actually seen from beginning to...

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    Not a final area, but I literally can not stand the Animus bulllshit in any of the Asassians Creed games. Can be trucking along and fully immersed in whatever setting you are in...and BAM...next 20+ mins are walking around some skyscraper building or controlling a different toon looming at...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So does anyone have a 4090 yet? I thought $1600 was retarded, but it seems the only ones listed on Amazon are $2500. No fucking way. I'll play console games the rest of my life in that case. Just find it hard to justify a 3080ti or 3090ti at $1200ish, with the 4090 so much better listed at...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So what's the layman's opinion on everything they have heard about the 4090? I am still sitting on a 1080ti and looking to upgrade, and while I think $1600 is fucking absurd, so is $1200 for a 3090ti that's significantly less powerful. With a 850watt power supply, what is the real significance...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So what is the consensus on buying a 3090ti vs maybe a 4090? I haven't upgraded in a few generations and currently have a 1080ti. Mostly game at 4k on a 48inch C1 monitor. Since I think that graphics have about hit their limit, I don't plan on upgrading again for another 4 to 5 years.

    Which MMOs are your fall back games you play?

    I'll bounce in and out of ESO for the simple reason that you never have to play catch up or feel like you are behind the power curve. I can skip playing ESO for 2 years and log in and jump right into relevant content to farm whatever set is the new " meta ". The latest patch has driven a ton...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    I certainly agree with most of your points. I would venture to say that 90% of the games combat encounters last even less than 10 secs. The only time I worried about DoTs was during WB encounters and dungeon bosses. I do not like the changes as proposed at all so far. The game is certainly...

    Ive played this on and off since launch. After the One Tamriel patch where all content was leveled to your player level, I can not think of any real challenge this game had outside a few Vet Arenas and trials. 95% of the game is an online skyrim with chat. While I see the changes having a...

    I dont understand this line of thinking. From the way it looks, you are suggesting that those in apartments cant get homes because of credit scores. However, the price of homes have shot up so much that people wont qualify for home loans, yet are stuck paying just as much, if not more, for...

    Do not EVER short a stock if you are unsure of how to get out if a trade. Your loss has unlimited potential. If you are dead set of shorting a stock or playing to the downside, use a PUT option. This way your max loss is only what you put down on the trade. You could literally lose your...

    ISBoxer + Inner Space + how many ever accounts you want to run at a single time = your bot population. Its just as easy to run 1 bot, as it is to run 5 bots, as it is to run 10. In this games case I actually think the majority of bots out there are real players running them to supplement a...

    I really enjoyed living in the Nashville area, but the traffic was a fucking nightmare. 65 / 40 / 24 all meet together in downtown and can cause 2+ hr delays every day. Even in the NE Nashville suburbs, every route into Nashville is via only 1 road. So any commute in and out of Nashville...

    Yes, 4 bd / 2 bath type homes. We were in the Hendersonville / Gallatin / Station Camp area. No way in hell we were looking in the Antioch or Madison area, and even those are now 150k+ more than a year ago. Even going up as far as White House and a few other area up 65 was ridiculous.
