    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The money they made with Wow was (is?) tremdendous; however, the ROI on Candy Crush must be insane. You can't blame Bobby to go after where the dough is.

    MS Flight Simulator 2020

    It's an awesome tool as a private pilote for landing on foreign airports. You get a real feeling of the place, can do the circuit as they are on the charts.

    just saw the original one this week. God this is Clash of the Titan bad. The scene where that dude steals the cube from the girls.. who greenlighted this ? Now I must watch Snyder's cut.

    Pretty much every card is on stock at my local dealer, what changed during the last month ? Is it this crypto limitation or did they finally resolved the production problems they had ?

    Why is blizzard communication to the customer about these "brave women" ? who cares, really ? a company has no moral duty (and must not have one)

    The Astronomy Thread

    If anything, 15'000 years of "modern" humanity can give us a clue : moon will belongs to the ones who claim it and has the capacity of defending its claim. And I'm pretty sure there's a flag there already !

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I thought about it too - the goal was maybe to remove the "artists" who thought they were irreplaceable, that without them wow would be trash. Or they want to bring the price of the IP down so some company belonging to the circle jerks of activision can buy it cheap and create a WoW 2 (outside...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The company parties I witnessed had always the same scenes going on. Hot girls turboflirting with men of power, regardless of marriage on both side. Toilet quick fucks. Dudes oogling hot girls. Girls giggling at joe from IT who is rumored to have a massive schlong. Sexual inuendos everywhere...

    Black Widow (2020)

    Went yesterday to see this, overall forgetable but not terrible. 6/10 is ok. I liked that it was a standalone movie, with a story from a to z. My main reproach would be the big vilain was pretty pointless. He has all this control, for what ? No ideology or whatsoever. Red Guardian was underused...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Less incentive for horde players to move somewhere else since the last gameplay blocker that comes from the population of the opposite faction was removed. There are no good solutions to remove player imbalance except making more appealing race / racial talents etc.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    That's mostly what I meant. Once a guy shows it's possible to do something and to be profitable, other will follow. But as BP pointed out, the choke point of this whole mess is the chips. Weird to have such monopoly on a crucial component used everywhere in 2021.

    A bit of an overstatement maybe, but here in Switzerland, he's in the top 2 car seller of 2020, before the VW golf, and only 2nd after the skoda. in 2017 there was no Tesla on the chart. Let me rephrase then : he jolted the car industry in some countries, and nobody predicted it. Even now, when...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I thought about that, but then I remember that elon musk fucked the complete car industry just because he was an outsider. I'm sure there a ton of small company producing small chips for things we don't even know exist, that could be bought and extended. Of course they won't compete with the...

    Low supply, high demand, high price ; I'm no clever business man, but if that's not 3 green flags for companies to create their GPU I don't know what they are waiting. It would be refreshing to have a 3rd competitors.

    I've been using my Dell Precision since 2008 and it's still kicking ass. I changed the HDDs to SSD as soon as I could, added 8gb of ram and it's still going strong. The new precision I have at work is also doing good. Of course since they are workstation, they have virtually 0 minutes of...

    Question for people who knows shit: why is there such a shortage of cards, and general electronic parts ? I mean, it can't be silicon, that shit is literraly everywhere. It can't be the wafer process, we've been doing this for over 30 years. is it the 5nm technology ? is it pure marketing stuff ?

    it's 35$ if you want your char on both server (classic and TBC). that's a service, you should pay for it, fucking commies. Yeah I think they failed their expension announcement. Wasn't it during TBC that WoW really got all its subscriptions ?

    One of the biggest computer parts dealer in Switzerland announced they will have 1500 cards available the 12th of may (including of course 3070, 3080 and 3090 + a few amd ones). Maybe there's light at the end of the tunnel ?

    European Super League

    Exactly, their super league was simply a money grab without consideration of anything else. The fact that they didn't even involve the fan shows how much they care. I don't think FIFA is more corrupt than any other sport association, but fifa deal with money that can buy countries, so it shows...

    Industrial did this. They splitted down the flavors / smell of things, found the cheapest compounds that would match the original smell and there you go, anus grease (artificially made of course) everywhere. High end parfume tends to have only high quality original components inside, that's why...

    WC3 remaster might have been a failure, WoW Classic is what people wanted, so that's 1:1 failure/success ratio, we can still have hope for this. They could even release D2 with D3 graphics and I'll be happy. and fuck running/walking

    I wonder if we could point telescopes at the centre of our galaxy and collect enough photons that bounced of earth, went all the way to the black hole of our galaxy and were bended back to us. Probably not, but i like this idea. We could see our earth how it was 54'000 years ago.

    I don't really know. I understand that it's not a historical movie, so inacuracies like "this tank can't kill that tank" did not affect my judgement; I took this movie as a psychological drama of men at the end of a horrible war. To me, the weakest point of the movie was the totally forgettable...

    Fury with Brad Pitt I love some WW2 movies, but I couldn't get into this one. I'll give it a 6/10 because Brad can act and the kitchen scene was pretty intense and was the most interesting scene of all.
