    Damnit. I could swear there was a Linus Tech Tips where the fat guy was claiming you can play pretty much anything on Linus I can do with single monitor. Is Proton like a custom Wine? It looks like people have gotten Division 2 to run on it.

    The Division 2

    I feel like it's easy, and then I suddenly, inexplicably get 1-2 shotted. Probably a dog or a turret. I'm also having a hard time keeping armor talents at the moment. I can't really play this game without Patience.

    My C drive is a 970 Evo + on the the first m.2 slot. My D drive is a 970 Evo on a PCIe card...I wonder if the May update will be able to figure that out. Why would an update even tamper with drive assignments? This feels like Microsoft wants my drives to do something for them that they can't...

    Yep. I had a stronger impression of who Pycelle was.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That makes too much sense, of course (though I thought it was supposed to be more of a precious commodity than it's turned out to be). Resorting to it three times just seems really lame. TV Qyburn was not developed enough.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It seems like Qyburn should have some sort of alchemical plan for dealing with the dead. It doesn't need to work, but he should attempt to use a spray or lozenge or something.

    If one buys into the marketing, Intel's new laptop H-series can do something like 5GHz with 45W draw on 14nm process. This is probably for 5 seconds before burning whatever surface it sits on, and it almost certainly isn't at 45W draw. This latest gossip is that Intel will suck well into 2021...

    I wish I knew. I completed it a second time thinking I might get extra apparel keys or something, but there didn't seem to be any benefit.

    Why do I keep getting Hard Wired Prototype mission? I've completed it twice. I don't see the point.

    Yeah, that could work. The makeup thing isn't just about superficiality. It's about the time involved.

    From about 2:35, Arya seems pretty impressed by Visenya Targaryen. Perhaps...no...they...wouldn't...dare stick Arya on a dragon to hunt down the undead dragon with her "showstopper" spear weapon.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I get that you like the character, and I don't dare argue that it's the best you've heard. But dialogue about the particulars of the Night King is hard to deliver and sounds stupid. That's why it's mostly confined to Bran. If you doubt me, rewatch Bran's revelation in the map room. Sam does a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think two things worked against Baelish: 1) the writers weren't clever enough to keep writing the clever characters in a convincing fashion without source material (imo, this holds true for Littlefinger, Varys, Cersei, and Tyrion), and 2) once the focus of the show shifted from human drama to...

    There's an epilogue coming. I don't know when or who we'll be watching, but it's coming.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I predict Arya makes it to the end. For her epilogue, the Faceless Men either reclaim their rogue asset, or Arya kills Jaqen/Syrio/Waif and their pursuit ends.

    Fair enough. And this was an AMD reward for me. Division 2 reminds me of City of Heroes. I loved that game briefly.

    Been unable to play for a few days...logged in today to do some invasion missions. Gamespeed feels like everything is happening 10% faster?? Game seems to be taking forever on initial load, I'm getting random screen freezes, and I am getting spammed with flashbangs, too. jeebus.

    I wonder if his artisans are the same underlings who fastened the chains to the sunken dead dragon. Tyrion once said he would double any price Bronn was offered. If it weren't for the crossbow prop, I would think it's just the writers giving a quick and lazy reason for getting Bronn to the...

    I'm finding it really difficult to put There's no synergy in gear between the RNG and mod limitations. It's arbitrary and sucks. This game isn't an MMO; they don't have to protect against mudlfation. It's fucking stupid. If they would allow three or even 2 modifications, it would be so much...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Have you used any of the VAG automatics, DSG or PDK? You can use the paddles in manual mode. My bad, meant Golf R. It looks like it's 288hp.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I couldn't go for it without 4-door or tiptronic. Still it seems like a really good value. I might need to test drive this to check out the handling. Did the 2019 R get a HP downgrade? I could swear they used to be just over 300 stock.

    That's some zero-sum hamster wheel bullshit. Patience is the most important talent for me. If I have it, I live. If I don't, I die a lot and hard.

    The Division 2

    I think I've come to the conclusion that this game's brilliance rides almost entirely on its gameplay. The easter eggs and easter egg quests are cool, too. Everything else about it pretty much sucks or is a work in progress. I say this, and I am playing the hell out of it.
