    Cyberpunk 2077

    I'm hoping there will be a Twitch extension for this similar to BG3's one. Would be nice to see character stats without bugging the streamer.

    One more question. I've never understood the whole RBG craze when it comes to computers. The only reason I can think of having one is to indicate computer heat, i.e. if the computer is cool it would be blue, but rise to yellow if it's hot but not too hot, and red if it were entering dangerous...

    The Great Filter Hypothesis

    In short, this is why I have given up on the idea that we will ever become a true, successful, spacefaring civilisation. And by that I don't mean sending a few satellites up into orbit and maybe landing a man on a few planets. I mean true spacefaring in actually colonizing other planets and...

    OK... not dead set on it, but just read that it's a good CPU. My current setup is 8 years old, an i5-2500 and have decided it's time to upgrade. I've put it of a few times due to "the next big thing" that is coming. I can wait a while more I guess, but I do want a new puter before my Christmas...

    So I'm looking at upgrading my CPU, mobo and memory, and I'm looking very hard at the i5-10600k for my cpu. It seems to give good bang for it's buck. Can anyone recommend good mobos for it, or at least which manufacturers are good and which to stay away from? Same for memory?

    RIP Sean Connery

    He had many good rolls, some have been named, but I also enjoyed him in The Rock, and as Indiana Jones's fater.

    I only ever get adds when watching on my phone (i.e. when I'm cooking or something away from the PC). But when I do, what pisses me most off is that I miss out on something. For example, I remember watching Arumba playing EU4 a while back, someone asked him about some mechanic, he started to...

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    Trying to listen to the AJ+TD episode. My main problem with Joe and many other podcasters/interviewers is that they ask a question, and then cut them off 30 seconds in in stead of letting them speak. I sometimes want to shout at the god damn monitor "Damn it Joe, let them finish speaking!!!"...

    The Higher Education Thread: Justify Poor Life Choices

    I agree, it's also the dumbing down of education. Once a European "Students degree" (basically similar to a High School degree, was enough to get you a decent clerical type job. A bachelors degree could get you a good job for life. Masters, let alone PhDs were rare and meant you knew your shit...

    Wait... they're using the same actors as in 1?? I thought this would be a remake with new/young actors. Well, doesn't really matter, I'm not going to watch either.

    The D&D thread

    I've been playing campaigns with my friends since 5e was launched, and it's very rare to see anything magical before lvl 5, which I think is a shame. Having recently looked over the lists of minor and major beneficial and detrimental things you can put on weapons, armour and jewelry and shit...

    The Fifth Element (1997)

    Great film. Loved the visuals. Interesting to see in that article that Luc Besson wished it had been made later for even better visuals. I think it would have been worse, as in SW Prequels worse. But then I do love oldish effects.

    Event Horizon (1997)

    I seriously think this is the best way to watch many horror movies. I still remember when I went to the cinema to watch From Dusk til Dawn, having never seen a trailer for it, heard a review, or basically heard shit about it. Didn't even know who was in it. Lights go out, title comes up, "ooh...

    Ahh Event Horizon... I remember a few years ago when my Father asked me for tips on a good Sci-Fi flick to watch. I pointed him towards this. He didn't talk to me for a week. Good times! :)

    So for the first time in probably over a decade I've somehow managed to get my laptop infected with a bunch of computer aids, though I'm not sure how, and it seems real odd. The built in Windows Virus Defender has found a bunch of dodgy shit on my laptop, including but not limited to, Notepad++...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I tried a G600(?) MMO mouse a while back, but found out my thumb was too big for it too. I could just use the "front" side panel, but if I wanted to use the "back" I had to curl my thumb up uncomfortably. I'd love just a simple 6 side button mouse.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I like the Twitch extension, at least the character info part of it. Good to be able to see what level, class and equipment characters are wearing without having to ask the streamer. The dialog choice is a bit weird... I can see it being hijacked easily. Waiting for someone to attempt a LG...

    Hmmm... apparently there is a Twitch extension for this game both allowing you to view the characters but also vote on dialog options. I can foresee some hilarious shit coming out of the second.

    I've tried multiple times to get into all 3 Witcher games and never lasted more than 1 hour due to the combat mechanics. I always just end up flailing around like a drunken retard. I don't know what it is. I've read the books and love them, but the mechanics just kill it for me. :( This is the...

    I still have my original Apoc from 2003. Damn I mined a lot of ore in that back in the day.

    What about ore in missions? IIRC you could get significant ore deposits, even low sec ore in high sec space, from some kill missions.

    EVE Online

    Very interesting. As an old school filthy carebear miner I wrote on the Eve forums ages ago (early days, 2003-4) about ways to improve mining and ore. If I could only be bothered I might even get back, but alas, I can't be arsed. Thanks for posting this though.
