Happy Father’s Day! I’m probably one of the few old enough to have a kid who can buy them a bottle of bourbon for it. Raised him right.

I’ve been to Best Buy twice in the last five years, picked up my 3080 Ti ordered online back when I built my PC, and went by to return my 9070XT when I decided to go with the 5070 Ti.

Well worth playing for the exploration and the world. I’m not a Potter fan or hater, but the world they built and the production quality of the game is top notch.

Typically subdivisions here, and if they have lights/signals then city roads as well.

Ended up going with a Gigabyte Windforce 5070ti over the 9070xt - got it installed today, running well, now I need to sell my 3080 Ti FE and upgrade my CPU.

Turtle Beach - had one in a Dell prebuilt - grabbed the Trinitron 20” monitor with that build, still have that damn thing and it works. Think that was a P3 500 mhz.

Y’all be spending all this money on unnecessary RAM when what you really need is a 2050W PSU. https://a.co/d/2nWxlb9

Obligatory:

I’ve played through twice and loved it - but I played the game after all of the bug fixes, everything I’ve read here and elsewhere said it was a clusterfuck at release. But it was a hell of a lot of fun once fixed and I wish it would get a sequel.

Season 3 will be a cross over with Days Gone:

Eh even being married as long as I have been it’s always been a challenge. My wife wants to drop hints at what she wants, and I’ve made it very clear she’s only going to get what she wants if she tells me. On the flip side, she’ll ask me what’s the matter, I’ll tell her and she’ll be like...

Had me looking for a lip plate image to post and then quickly noped out of that rabbit hole.

Hmmm with my Gamepass Unlimited expiring end of the year, might be time to see what I can get for my series X.

Picked up a 9070xt, now debating selling/piecing out old computer and going full team Red with a new build, especially if I can get near what other people are asking for my 3080Ti FE.

Just picked this up on Best Buy -

Thanks for the feedback, I passed for now, have seen several cards in that range but will wait.

Red Devil 9070 XT at $899 a decent deal? Can’t even remember what retail is.

Have a Asus Prime 5080 in my Best Buy cart - just can’t convince myself it’s worth $1400 (with tax)

Hell they sued to be able to pay him, then booted his ass when he wanted more… https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6104215/2025/01/31/settlement-tennessee-virginia-nil-ncaa/

I’ve never understood people who are compelled to try and manipulate everyone around them. I’ll drink a beer to your peace of mind.

I remember helping coach my son’s baseball team about 15 years ago - I noticed one of the other dads helping seemed a bit preoccupied. I asked him if everything was okay. He said, “man, don’t say anything to anyone else, but I just found out my wife is pregnant… with twins.” Of course I...

Maybe he does?

Wife is 50 and still hasn’t hit menopause, she got her IUD replaced last week.

Every time there was a “we just need to understand what influences would cause them to make such terrible choices”, I wanted the dialogue choices - 1) room temperature IQ, 2) no internal dialogue, 3) poor impulse control or 4) all of the above.

I could use a Color Slant and the Ring of the Ancients on Prodigal, and the Charred Guardian Shield on Sylvara.

High elf ass.

I’ve been lucky with PUGs so far in Unrest, went from 23 to 32 as an enchanter last night in the basement. Only issues were trains from 6 mage groups in MR a few times. Missed most of the bonus weekend because for some strange reason wife likes to spend time with me (not playing MMOs...

I’ve been buying from https://us.myprotein.com/sports-nutrition/impact-whey-protein/10852500.html when they have sales - this is showing at 50% off for me with free shipping.

I had an old laptop that was Hackintosh compatible, started playing when it still required a sub. When it went free to play I picked up an old PowerPC off Craigslist to manage boxing.

Getting the ancient enchanter mez first in my guild meant I had the pleasure of handling two of the mezzable snakes during Emp fight…

I was able to create a character a few months back on Gilgamesh, finally finished core EW story on him, leveling some other jobs now. Aether definitely much better.

Hell I was thinking there will be people with scanners sitting in the crowd like the NASCAR folks.

Pretty much the same for mine - stay away from several things a few days before, no red/purple dye in drinks/food, only water/jello/broth the day before. The prep from the pharmacy was two bottles of what tasted like watery cough syrup that you mixed with more water and had to drink. Stuff...

I dunno, went down the rabbit hole of music to listen to while watching the eclipse…

I think that’s why he referenced said “source material.”

I remember thinking “no way in hell my kids are watching Barney!” Then Teletubbies came along….
