    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I do not disagree about anything here. My 6 year old son and me both giggle and think it's great fun to hit a fuel sac and watch the explosion! I just wish there was a little bit more leniency when fighting mobs like chargers or striders. Like I don't have to setup an intricate web of traps...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    Hahaha right? Whenever I play my wife is like dang you're good! I'm likely exaggerating the toughness of some of the battles, but there is for sure some times where I'm like hey I'm gonna go kill/farm those striders over there and I end up burning through a potion or 2 or my whole herb bag.

    I just found out my brother in law who's living with us for a while has a ps4 pro that he's not using at all while I've been pleb status on regular ps4. Wtf! I was like hey can I borrow your ps4 so I can game in the bedroom at night? He's like sure, it's a Pro so will look great on your TV...

    My wife plays on the same difficulty and she beat the game. She can't even move and shoot at the same time! I'm not gonna stoop that low!

    I have a 60hz now. Haven't really seen the bug but thanks for ruining my reason to get new toys. 😂

    This about the best you can do for a 24" , 1080p, 144hz monitor? I want to match my 27" 1440p 144hz in at least refresh rate to avoid the Win 10 bug.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I'm gonna try and put more time into this on the weekend after I get home and hopefully get past some of my hangups with it. I'm for sure bad, but even the lowliest robots feel like I'm hopping into a Dark Souls fight. 😔

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Friend reported they finally fixed the conversion rates. It'd say 5 days Ultimate for 7 days of Gold or whatever, but it'd credit your account with the full 7 days. Not anymore!

    Since using my seat pad the correct way, my tail bone problems have disappeared for my Vertagear chair, and so that's a huge positive.

    I thought that cottage cheese jingle was pretty catchy! Well done Daisy! I'll eat cottage cheese anyway you want to give to me, savory or sweet, but it has zero place in lasagna.

    Yep, confirmed it's set to 1080p resolution. Not bad thoughts though.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Chrome, on a 1080p 60hz screen. I looked into settings for Youtube, but didn't see anything. Might look into what Dom was saying. Honestly, I'm terrible, and couldn't tell a difference in the videos I was watching the difference between 720p, and forcing it to 1080p. Lol. I could tell it was bad...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Was probably 30ft direct line of sight with the router, and yea, I understand that. Just like being wired. I'm just not sure why this is happening on Youtube. About to hop on Twitch, and confirm what auto settings do there, but pretty sure it was 1080p.

    Witcher 3

    Side quests have been great. I'm just anxious to get into the DLC. I'm level 33 and doing side quests in the late 20s. So the experience isn't great but it certainly fleshes out the world more. Also, question, do notice boards "respawn"?

    I don't understand this. They are just potatoes straight into the fryer? Well done for sure makes them better but well done fries makes all fries better. What's wrong with fries potatoes?

    Witcher 3

    Been knocking out the lower level quests I had in my log, as well as contracts. It's been a good time, but I'm over leveled most of this stuff now. I have a mod that still gives me some experience, so the grey ones are not totally useless. Thought about just rushing the main story, but what fun...

    @TJT I've been seeing you and @Janx play recently, and I've been tempted to jump back in, but I was never able to get the moves right back when I put 35 hours into it at launch. Was pretty neat though to get into other games, and tag along with others that were much better than me to get some...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I think part of my problem is that I'm not a stealth kind of guy, regardless of game. I want to rush in, and just beat some robot ass. However, here, your killing power much much improves if you setup traps , etc. I'll look into mods. I've got mods in the 30-40% range? But they don't seem to be...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    So recently switched to a wired connection, and compared to 5ghz wireless, I haven't really seen a difference at all, except I have a couple holes in my wall now. Lol But Youtube still only auto plays at 720p60? Even though the videos have 1080p versions available? Why is this? If I click...

    That's what people say, and so I upgraded to a Ryzen 7 1700, and then found a deal on a 1080Ti to go with it, and do I see a difference? Sure. I can play Witcher 3 on max settings, 100+ FPS. Depends on the games you play I suppose, because highly optimized games like Destiny 2 or Overwatch? You...

    I have the same CPU and went through all of this before when I got my 1080Ti last year. And more recently thought for sure my CPU would be bottle-necking the GPU, but honestly don't think so. It hasn't felt slow at all, and the bottleneck calculator that we don't really know how it calculates...

    Met the wife April 20th, 2007, started dating June 01, 2007, married March 20th, 2010. Get with it plebs, remember those dates! Makes it easier I suppose that the first time I met my wife was a forum get together from the old Vault message boards, for Asheron's Call. So it was her, and about 6...

    Yea, quite a bit, but not so much this year. Despite it being January, it's still just chillin' in the 50's like Winter never came around! Lucky for me, my small town doesn't give a shit about recycling curb side. So I have just a massive canister that's in front of my house, and it makes for...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Lol. That pic was a couple months ago. Wife and sister in law cleaned up a ton of shit before the cleaner came. I know this because our Ring doorbell was going off like crazy because of motion. Had to be a dozen trips outside with trash bags, lol. So it got a lot better before I decided to...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I'd rather pay the money, and have a clean house, than not pay it, and be frustrated. My wife's anxiety/embarrassment and therefore having to clean for the cleaning lady is a huge positive thing about the whole situation.

    Is there a vanilla/heart of stone build that is similar Melee heavy that works out pretty well? I'm currently a signs build, and just light stuff on fire, and it works pretty well, but I much prefer beating stuff up with my sword. Wanted to change things up a bit. Probably just push through, and...

    I'm gone all week, so I don't have the day to day interaction to keep up on the cleaning. Wife takes care of the kids and stays home, and she says she cleans, but the kids trash it, but then when I come home and see things like that, it's like wut? You ain't doing shit. Grats on your naps. It's...
