    God I remember reading groups in 2nd grade. I had been reading E.B. White books and Peanuts books and I had to sit there waiting for some poor fucktard to struggle through Dick and Jane shit.

    Twitch.tv

    Yeah I don’t get the draw of some of these steamers either. I just tell myself they’re providing content that appeals to a large enough segment to matter. Hell, look at some of the shitty content services like Amazon, Netflix and others put out, obviously somebody watches it.

    I’ve been pretty happy with my build around the 3080Ti FE Only truly annoying issue is it will not properly wake from sleep… discussed it earlier but for now just have sleep disabled. Debating replacing the thermal pads in the GPU based on what I’ve read elsewhere on the improvements people...

    Best Buy drop prioritized TotalTech members - looks like most everything has sold out before opening to the public but the 3080Ti is still showing a how do I buy this button… not sure how long the hold lasts for members though.

    The Beer Thread

    This was the first time I’d seen the Double Candy, was in Southern Pines looking for something else and saw it. I’m a fan of Sycamore Brewing and their Mountain Candy so didn’t hesitate to grab it. It’s not as strong an alcohol after taste as a lot of imperials - ton of flavor without being so...

    I’m second guessing my purchase of the 980 Pro - it has no rpmz :(

    I’ve noticed a big difference from my Samsung 980 2.5” SSD to my gen4 nvme with loading games like New World and No Man’s Sky.

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    I’ve been slowly playing through Fallout 3 again on the series X - really holds up well.

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Was typing basically the same thing - as for the console, it’s great especially if you have game pass.

    They left out the “I’m far more worried about my offensive line getting me killed than a little noise” part.

    Playstation 5

    Load times are phenomenal. Dark Souls, Ghosts of Tsushima, God of War… very little waiting at all. Built my new PC with a latest gen m2 - I could never go back.

    Horizon 2: Forbidden West

    The bunkers where you worked your way through killing humanoids but then would have to release one of the machines in a confined area were interesting, if I recall correctly completing the bunker would allow you to control the machine type you conquered at the end.

    I have three more semesters until my son graduates college and is more or less off my payroll and I get a substantial boost to my discretionary income. Am I supposed to feel bad that I’m counting the days? Grats Brahma!

    I’ve never pursued the shoes. But I’ve been able to score a PS5, a series X and a FE 3080Ti using only the Spiel Times discord - granted I’ve been lucky as well.

    If you haven’t played Super Mario Galaxy then the remake of it + the other two games with it is good if you can catch it on sale.

    I told my wife he sealed it in the first half of the Georgia game. Last year Mac and Najee both had phenomenal seasons, but it was Devonta who had me asking “how the fuck is he that open?” Or “how did he beat that defender’s angle?” Bryce did what he did with a less than stellar o-line (hats...

    Did try that - but it’s weird, cranks up the fans and lights up RGB ram and GPU, but doesn’t wake the monitor or the peripherals (mouse and keyboard). Have gone through and not allowed computer to power down USB devices, disabled hibernate, lots of other things but no luck so far.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    My wife was a typical white chick, but after the 25 year mark she sorta figured out being straightforward was going to get her a lot farther than playing games. We communicate much better now that she understands I don’t really much give a shit how anyone “feels” about anything - I just try to...

    It’s odd, seems like it wakes the computer but the display stays off. Have disabled deep sleep on the monitor already, and yeah had already done that in the device manager.

    Yes - I have done that exactly. I’ve gone back and enabled wake on ps2 in addition just to try it, but haven’t tested it yet.

    Only one issue on this build - waking the computer from sleep. I’ve googled this and changed the settings in BIOS, but no luck getting the mouse/keyboard to wake PC from sleep. BIOS is latest version. I have to hold the power button down to get it to reboot. For now I just don’t have it...
