    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Apple's rules don't allow competing stores, that's kind of the point. Epic is forced into the Apple store just to have access to the 1.5 billion devices on the platform.

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Absolutely not true. Many users, especially Fortnite kids under parental controls, simply won't install apps that aren't through the official storefront. I'm not saying that Apple deserves 30%, they certainly don't, but to say that Epic gets no value at all from being in the Apple/Google stores...

    Nvidia said 3080 Sept 17th, 3090 Sept 24th, 3070 "October."

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Was trying to avoid the mobo change but if 4000 series is coming that soon I guess future proofing a little wouldn't hurt. This is all going through a new 60" tv that I doubt I'll be upgrading in the next 5+ years so consistent 1440p/120 is really all I am caring about.

    EVGA step-up program, pay the difference. 3070 drops in October, my upgrade window is until November. $75 upgrade plus the Ryzen around $120.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Consistently breaking 120fps at 1440p ultra while getting the most out of what I already have for a low price. Upgrading the GPU and CPU would be like a $200 investment.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    As far as I understand it, I can't upgrade to a 4000 series because it'd need an updated B550 chipset. Intel would require a new motherboard as well.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    So right now I've got a Ryzen 5 2600X, a 2060 Super, and a b450 mobo. Assuming I'm gonna go ahead with an upgrade to the 3070, I'm trying to figure out a CPU upgrade sweet spot too. I was surprised to see that $1-200 extra spent on Ryzens would not really get me any noticeable performance gains...

    I only want to see JJ vs Brock on the off chance Brock wins and completely ruins JJ's legacy.

    KM is a lot of practical shit to get out of a situation. Rake the eyes, kick the balls, use whatever you can grab as a weapon. Methods to deal with multiple assailants. BJJ is more about one on one confrontation; being able to control/disable someone larger or stronger than you are by leveraging...

    I was hoping to go 2060S -> 3060 but given the presumed timelines I might need to do the EVGA step-up to 3070 instead. My cutoff would be Nov 11.

    Looks like megas are pretty much imminent, can happen any time now. Kanto starters, Beedrill and Pidgeot models were added to the game today. Niantic tweeted about a mega announcement this morning. Looks like they're going to be their own tier of raids, which will reward mega energy. Energy has...

    I just hit rank 200 yesterday and tomorrow is the literal half way point of the season with 78 days left to go right now. I think I'm probably just going to casually work on whatever title triumphs I can, and just farm EAZ for magnificent armor when I'm bored. Confirmed 30% drop rate from...

    Hope the price rumors are true so I can try to squeeze in an EVGA step-up to a 3060 if they release soon enough. Just got a 2060S. If not, it's still more than I need, but would be nice.

    The only people calling it a masterwork step are misinformed people, though. Not Bungie. Extrapolate that a little bit; the step is auto-completed for every armor that drops after initial completion. You think Bungie is just gonna let you farm unlimited MW armor from the EAZ?

    Mortal Shell - Soulslike RPG

    Picked this up yesterday and put in a couple of hours. It's pretty fun. Definitely doesn't feel as precise as Souls combat though. I had some confusion at first because I thought you had to actually find the shell's name in the world somewhere, but you just pay that bitch some souls or whatever...

    Love that the last few 5* raids have been so easy, I'm drowning in raid items. Already have a shiny and a perfect Genesect. I saw someone even did a true solo, no best friend lobby, which I think this is only the second time that's been possible (Deoxys-A being the other). Thanks for some of...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    65% of players still use 1080p or below and only 6% have made the jump to 1440p. There's nothing wrong with 16:9. Players at 3440x1440 are 0.9%.

    Solstice starts next week. This year you grind the first set to unlock Majestic. Once Majestic is unlocked, you can buy universal glow ornaments from Eververse. The glow is based on your currently equipped subclass. If you masterwork the Majestic set and make it Magnificent, it'll gain a white...

    They're useless anyway unless you intentionally TM away their Frustration charge move, which can only be done during specific Rocket events.

    100% okay with royalty free lo-fi tracks in the background. I find most stream music distracting. Hope more studios come out and say that their music is okay to use like Bungie does.

    I ended up with Chansey, Houndour, A. Exeggutor, Roselia, Ponyta, 2x Seviper, 2x Heatmor, Sableye, Durant, and Unown. Wife got Seviper, Sableye, Exeggcute, Woobat, visor Bulbasaur. IMO it was worth the price of admission just for all of the meta relevant candy, the crazy amount of dust, and...

    They're on a 3 week rotation and we still have until November, you're fine. 11k isn't too bad. Lore entries are the easiest farm. Scannable ghosts etc on each destination. Class super/grenade/ability kills can be farmed easily at Shuro Chi checkpoint in Last Wish. Log in to braytech.org, go to...

    Yeah man join the clan. Almost every raid it feels like we have someone that hasn't done it before, so we're pretty used to being patient and explaining.
