    Disney+ Streaming Service

    As much as I hate to admit it, the no ads triple pack for $20 a month is pretty solid. I already pay for no ad Hulu at $13 and D+ under the 3 year deal was $3, so only paying $4 more even after the pumped the prices and getting ESPN+ along with it is not bad.

    The Boys

    Homelander is a god among the supes, though. The comic was still plenty compelling when the boys could stand toe to toe with medium strength supes while still having to connive around the most powerful ones.

    The Boys

    Okay, after this season it has to be said. While the idea of having all the boys remain normies is interesting in theory, the show suffers greatly when they aren't all supes and season 3 proved that beyond a doubt. The best parts of the season were Butcher and Hughie going toe to toe with...

    WarnerMedia launching HBO Max Spring 2020

    Pirating is about the goddamn principle of it all now. Everyone won with OG Netflix. The subscribers got tons of content, the content owners got a nice cut, and the middleman did an actual service for both and deserved its cut. But everyone got greedy and thought they could out-Netflix the...

    This is nearly exactly what I said, while Misty is saying that the 4070 will beat the 3090TI. I'd love to be wrong and and for the 4070 to mop up everything that currently exists on a 350W power draw, but that seems so ludicrous given the power draw of the current gen and the rumors that power...

    It will likely be a 3080 equivalent or a bit better with 8gb of RAM and running at 300 or higher watts.

    I have a 15 year old Swissgear laptop backpack that is heavy duty with steel reinforced handles. Got my company to buy it for work travel and it was a $90 bag back then. $250 seems... excessive. ***EDIT*** This appears to be the one I have, most likely slightly updated from 2007...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    What Pyros said above, but I'd like to add that Dark Souls 1 is basically a master class in world/level design. You don't get fast travel until more than halfway through the game, but every single place you go is connected to other parts of the world which makes traversing it much faster than...

    I can't imagine the world these people live in. Like, it is a fucking imaginary character. Why would the physical characteristics of the voice actor for a make-believe character matter in even the slightest way in non-clown world? It's like saying we have to have McGruff voiced by @Ossoi...

    Whelp, the miner dropped his price on 2 EVGA XC3 Ultra's to $550 each so my buddy and I each grabbed one. Already registered mine and it still has 16 months left on the warranty. Put it through its paces and everything is running exactly as it should be, so I'm pretty happy at this point. Now...

    It's the best because it is literally the most horrific, racist shit in the entire show and, given the tweets from Kripke, it seems completely lost on him that having individual "racist" characters (Soldier Boy, Stormfront) isn't nearly as disgusting as a whole mega-corp wholly endorsing...

    Saying that it is overdue implies that it is a necessity. Regardless, I don't disagree with you that interesting GTA stories exist with a female protagonist. As soon as a studio starts talking about "representation" and "equity", though, you know that it has nothing to do with exploring...

    It's not controversial, it is a stupid fucking take. Who gives a shit what the race/gender/species of the goddamn one-shot character is as long as the game is fucking good? That is the whole fucking point. You trying to inject the necessity of gender equity into a game that rose to fame on...

    First, I never argued about representation. I said that no significant portion of this board full of the hardest core gamers on the fucking planet ever avoided a good game simply because of the gender of the main character until the great pandering began, and even after that point we still...

    Guy on Facebook in my area is selling a load of 3070 and 3080s. He's told me he'd do $600 a piece for the EGA FTW3 10GB and another of the 3080s. He also says they are all still under warranty as he hasn't claimed the any of them based on their serial numbers. I'm super tempted to do this...

    There is literally no evidence that excessive red meat will kill you any faster than excessive sugar or excessive anything else. All evidence to the contrary is made up of data relying heavily on food questionnaires that are hopelessly confounded. Additionally, there is no evidence that there...

    I've argued this with many people on the forum over the years and have come to realize that they are just different than me. I'm impressed with the people who can do starvation diets. Their continued ability to starve themselves is something that is not successful for me. I much prefer giving...

    If nothing is underperforming, why upgrade? I know I have fallen into that trap in the past. These days, before I upgrade I take a good look at what upgrading actually gets me in real performance. That is why I'm currently running a 3600/3060ti setup without any real need to upgrade.

    The majority of the people on this forum that have lost weight and kept it off are those that have gone low carb/keto. I've never needed to drop serious weight, but there days I eat mostly meat and fruit because eating this way lets me eat as much as I want without gaining weight or feeling...

    What is your CPU and what resolution/framerate are you targeting? At higher resolutions the amount of memory starts to matter more because of the texture size and so would affect your decision, especially if you are gaming at lower framerates.
