    The Quest 2 Resident Evil 4 bundle somehow came back in stock at Best Buy this morning… guessing they had some inventory sitting somewhere, but at $50 off with two games I grabbed it and ordered this cable to go with it - gracias!

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yeah, pretty much what I deal with regularly. I’ve called out many imposters for spending more time trying to place blame elsewhere than they do solving the problems caused by their own incompetence. My boss will occasionally suggest pulling me in to a Teams meeting last minute when someone...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I’d compare it more to Ghost of Tsushima or GOW in terms of being able to play how you want and to some degree choose a build/gear based on your play style. I didn’t use the counter/Protego spell much after the early part of the game, preferring dodge roll more, so I did not take the talents...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Finished up the main quest last night at level 31 with about 40 hours played and around 70% completion I think - definitely will go around and finish up most of the remaining side quests, discoveries, etc. I had no crashes while playing but did get the occasional odd graphical glitch. Great...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    It is odd when you think about how a wave of your wand gets the hedges trimmed, you see animated hammers pounding anvils, picks mining away, brooms sweeping (don’t remember animated dust pans but I don’t pay that much attention). As well as the aforementioned vanish spell that comes in handy...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I hovered over the map locations for various spots to see if they had a demiguise then just used revelio to find them, or as Talenvor said if I saw one during the day just did map + advance to night to grab it.

    Yeah I had just bought the WD 850x 2TB for my desktop, grabbed the 980 Pro 2 TB and a separate heat sink for my PS5.

    Desktop Computers

    Not sure what the low price point on these are - but the Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB and the WD 850x 2 TB are $159 at Best Buy - seems pretty low for what I’ve seen lately. And the 980 with heat sink is $179.

    What are you playing?

    I’ve had a blast playing Hogwarts, 25 hours in at level 21 and haven’t been bored, just exploring areas and mechanics. I loved the original Dead Space, but will probably wait for a Steam sale on the remake.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I’ve noticed you can use the shortcut key as a toggle - so if you hit M for the map, when you hit it again it closes back to the game - same with J (quest journal). I think this works as well even if you entered the menu from the ESC interface, but I could be wrong.

    Nick’s story will be retconned - it’s now a sad tale of a MtF transition gone bad. At the rate things are going the story will be about grown men crossing wands and how it’s still designed for children.

    Played through the first 30-40 minutes at 1440p on ultra with a 3080ti and it ran very smoothly, I’ll check FPS this evening, limited to 1440 tho sorry.

    That drives me up the wall - I’ve had ridiculously good ratio on that site and life will get busy and they just close my account - even had that happen with an account I had initially donated on. Last time I made a point of visiting the site at least once a week - no warning just closed my...

    The Last of Us

    I enjoyed the third episode despite the scenes where I went to get another beer… So I think I’ve figured out how they will wrap this up:

    So I’m leveling a cleric in Unrest on Agnarr because… hell just because - anyway I see in general that Faceless Rapiers is coming soon to TLP 2023. Damn that’s tempting.

    The original Dead Space holds up very well graphically on series X as well as PC - that’s my only issue with this remake.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I played an enchanter on Aradune - really enjoyed grouping but never was comfortable boxing a healer as well. Grouped several times with someone duoing a ench/cleric in a group in Sebilis crypt and we both were using skelly pets - had to give him props, controlled pet, cleric buffs never...

    Hopefully the Bama game continues to go as is - otherwise, agree. And I hate players tossing the ball right as they cross the goal line…

    Sailing on the Seas of Fate - Plague Ships of Nurgle

    IIRC, Bermuda does not have a lot of ships docking there because they really don’t need ships docking there. I’ve not been there yet but Royal Caribbean usually has it on a few itineraries each year, and when we do cruise it’s Royal.

    Well he does look like he feels like shit - playing his ass off after that poor throw though. TCU should be in regardless of outcome in OT I think.

    I think Georgia, Michigan, TCU and USC are in if they win out. A-OSU got their asses handed to them in their own house - they’ll need someone to trip up.

    I know all too well why Bammers have a bad rep - and grew up amongst both good and bad. I’ve had my asshole moments, but when I realized I dreaded the losses more than I was enjoying the wins I said it was time to step back and correct my perspective. Anyway, Roll Damn Tahd - we should always...
