    I was gonna play this I was like seconds from pushing that purchase button. But then I heard people talking about no magic, man that just sucks.

    Costco is the same shit. Big bird, way fucking bigger than Kroger and its still $4.99. But something about that Kroger chicken man, its just better. I saw them set the shit up one day and it was a huge ass bag of them marinaded inside a bag. I dont think Costco (not sure about Sams) has them...

    Car ?'s

    I remember the first Hybrid I worked on back in the early 2Ks. My company got contracted to help Sanyo develop a battery for the Ford Escape. So this was mounted in the space they made in the floor pan like where the hatchback is. It was about 3ft by 4ft if memory serves? Anyway we had to make...

    Ashes of Creation

    LOL this is also a driving force for those that are not good at PVP or the best or whatever. The thing that keeps them coming back is the thought that someday they will have the gear to override their shitty PVP skills. Or that if they work harder they can be good as well. Also any mmo without...

    IF you guys have a GFS by you they now have broasted chicken or at least mine does. My kids and wife cant get enough of the shit. $7 for 8 piece. I usually pick up 3 of them and we have chicken for days. Its fucking cheaper than getting a roaster and ovening it. I used to swear by Kroger...

    Shit I mostly soloed on my Ranger back in the day up till like 60. Using fear kiting animals. I also grouped when I could find one, but sadly I had only a few hours a night to play so waiting for a spot in a group was not always the best way to go. Then when POP came out we had the headshot bow...

    They have mod packs now. But requires vortex premium for a month, like $5 or some shit. I mean you can do it without premium and still download the pack but you have to sit there and install each one by one. Last time I played skyrim I used this one...

    The biggest BS was at like lv 55ish or thereabouts where you essentially ran out of everything. Until then there was some rough spots they need to fill in a bit but the 50s were fucking awful. Plus the fucking running, ugh...

    Ashes of Creation

    Yeah I mean Shadowbane was essentially normalized across the board. And you fought over resources. Gear didnt really matter, neither did weapons. It was all about the runes that dropped and made your class an extra bit better. Like the commander rune, remember? And those were world drops and...

    And thats the problem with these forced grouping games. Its all fine and dandy if you have a set group and you have shit ton of fun. But once the group is gone its no longer fun. Shit even EQ had places you could solo and the exp solo was OK. Certain classs were solo gods and could venture deep...

    Caramelizing is what needs to happen if you want to make good french onion soup from scratch. I use red onions about 6 huge ones. It takes forever to actually caramelize them, like literally a hour. Never used sugar but Ive read places that this is what you add to make it all go faster. Rest of...

    My kid says its a bit slower than other CoD I think he means TTK and he says that this leads to shit like campers and such. (Catering to noobs is what he said) Hiding behind corners and in the bushes and shit. Other than that its the same shit, smaller non destructible CoD type maps. He also...

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

    SO 75W @12V is 6.5 amps and that calls for 16 AWG, 100W @12V is 8.3 amps which needs 14 AWG and I can fucking guarantee that those wires are not 16 or 14 AWG my bet is 20 AWG. I mean OBV there is a problem when shit is melting.

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

    There is 2 ways to get around this problem, use bigger connectors and bigger wire or convert the 12v current design of the cards to 24v which will halve the amps the wire and connector carries. 120 Watts @ 12V = 12 Amps 120 Watts @ 24V = 6 Amps 120 Watts @ 120V = 1 Amp All the charts im...

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

    Well one of those pins obviously is the power, right? And even if you split that 500w into 3 connectors its still 160+ watts each on a 20 or 22 AWG wire.

    Ashes of Creation

    Yeah for sure, there was just not enough PvE content in New World to keep people playing. And the PvP was just a side show and maybe a bit more for just a few that were lucky to be in guilds that participated. Lets say a server of 2K with about 4-5 guilds that participated in the 50 v 50 city...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    So I watched this on Disney recently and it was kinda meh. I liked all the other Thor movies but this one just seemed like a desperate try at one. The comedy felt forced, not much of it was funny, the story was ok but all the shit that wrapped around it was just shit. 5/10

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

    Those small ass pins along with the small ass gauge on those wires is jut not suited for so much wattage running through it. Maybe it did in the 100w-150w days but these cards pushing 500w+ is insane on small ass connector pins like that. Shit my kids car stereo that we installed this summer was...

    Basically what my guild did. We had everyone max in pretty much everything gathering, feeding the weapon crafters and others with mats every day with our CDs.

    Why cant they just relocate the fucking plug on these cards to another area? ITs just shit design and hasd been for a long time. Or make a 90deg connector or some sort of add on 90 piece that goees in the middle of the plugs from the PS and the card? It cant be more than like a .25c piece.
