    When does laziness cross the line into depression?

    Have you tried fucking 20-something, drug-addled street-whores? I've read that it adds some adventure to your life. Seriously, I've been in a funk with my work situation for a while. Pay is really good but there are some organizational issues that have taken me to I don't-give-a-shit...

    For Honor

    The real question after watching some streamers play this, for me, is whether this is really worth AAA pricing. I'd probably pick it up at $25 but $60 minimum seems pricey.

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

    Freelancer.com is one example but there are a few others like it. I know plenty of people that bill 8 to 10 times those rates that have the same background as us but jobs mostly come from personal connections. I'm at the point that I don't care what my company thinks. I would be happy to...

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

    I've finally decided to shit or get off the pot and I'm the process of setting up an LLC (and website, etc.), hoping to pick up some side work, hoping to transition to full time consulting. My background has been mostly C firmware but I also have some C#/.NET and Java/Android experience...

    We've got one like that recently joined a work-from-home "Travel Agency". Stay at home mom: I love my company! So glad I made this change! Let me know if I can plan a trip for you! Visit my site if you'd like to book a trip! I know she tried to get a large group on a cruise for spring break...

    Titanfall 2

    I spent a little time playing the beta and my kid got this for the PS4 for Christmas and I just finally got around to starting the campaign (he has played through twice). Figured I would play through it first to get used to the gameplay. I'm about an hour in and I have to say this is some of...

    DOTA 2

    It's pretty fucked up that ragekids can put you in LP because they don't like your pick or your play. People should not be put in LP for poor play. It should basically be for abandoning (which can be detected without the rage kids) and trolling. Any trolling accusations should be verified by...

    Rerolled bro's, I need your help.....

    I'm no expert but in a couple of google searches I found indications that most people disappear on purpose. Given that he's neither a young child that would be abducted by a pedo nor an (guessing since he is working) elderly person with dementia who wandered off, then it is far more likely that...

    Rerolled bro's, I need your help.....

    I'd say 75% chance he is okay but wanted to disappear. Any history of depression or mental illness? Any history of drug involvement? Could be a deal gone bad. I think the chances that he is sitting in his vehicle in a ravine or at the bottom of a swamp are pretty low. It's happened before...

    DOTA 2

    I'm getting to the point that I am starting to remember to hit keys for whatever I have when appropriate. I find it hard to remember that shit in the heat of a team fight though. I've been mainly cycling Zeus, Lich, Bloodseeker and Legion Commander, trying to figure out a rotation of 5 or 6 to...

    DOTA 2

    I decided to stop playing ranked and just jump into some unranked games. So much better. I don't know if it is that the competition is lower or the cooperation is higher but the experience was a lot more positive. Got a couple of wins and called it a night. It's like night and day.

    DOTA 2

    I've decided that his meltdowns and the reaction in the chat channel are part of the entertainment for me. Last night, a few times he started hyperventilating through clinched teeth and the chat lit up with pictures of him with a red face. It was hilarious. What a brat. Having him on a team...

    DOTA 2

    I used to think the same thing until I found some streamers I liked. It's good for checking out games you don't own but might buy to see if you like them. I like it for DOTA because you get something of the experience without having to commit to hanging out with 4 Peruvians for an hour. It...

    DOTA 2

    I spent a couple of hours watching Arteezy play last night. I had seen him in matches previously but never a live stream. What a salty, sniveling teammate that guy is. He's clearly pretty good but he was whining and reporting people just about every game. Ten minutes in and he's not happy with...

    DOTA 2

    I've thought about creating a new Steam account just for DOTA. I stupidly kept trying to play support in shit tier and that drug me below 1000 like an anchor. The main problem you see at that level is lack of pushing. Late game, we wipe their team so everyone is out like 45+ seconds so "PUSH...

    DOTA 2

    I know I have received some good advice here, but seriously...I have lost like 10 ranked games in a row. I read the guides and I try to play a good game and still lose game after game. How is that possible?

    DOTA 2

    Someone recommended Purge and I watched a recent video he made playing Maiden. I couldn't understand about half of what he said. It was all quiet mumbling. It was like the whole team was making a point of sounding very very calm.

    This, exactly. Although sometimes I have full intentions of making the transition to the vag after a BJ warmup and I just vapor lock and finish without getting there.

    DOTA 2

    I think that, for shit tier, I have decent map awareness and willingness to cooperate and put the team above myself. I struggle in the following areas: - I find getting the LH timing/damage down can be tough if I'm playing more than one hero. - I don't often understand what gear I should...

    Thanks Bro. Good advice. I appreciate your time. I am going to run Medusa for a while and see how it goes. I like her conservative, late boom style. Going to play a few rounds against bots. Will report.

    DOTA 2

    I freely admit that I am still learning. I feel pretty comfortable in Omni, Lock, Crystal but it just doesn't pan out. I keep losing and my MMR just keeps dropping. Faggots start bitching about vision and I'm fucking buying totems as fast as I can. Before you know it, they're all "REPORT...

    DOTA 2

    Sub 1000 MMR is an interesting hell. After 4 lost matches in a row playing hard support, I decided to change it up and try out techies in ranked. First, though, co op against bots. I somehow was the only one not feeding and we lost. We lost. To bots.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Saw it with the family yesterday. Meh. I found aspects of TFA annoying but overall I'd rate it over RO. I didn't really feel any connection to the characters except maybe the CGI robot, which is bad. There just seemed to be so many characters and they and their backgrounds and relationships...

    My oldest is hitting the front end of puberty. I've always had a pretty good relationship with him but I think he is starting to hate me. All that taking fun stuff away and chewing his ass out when he doesn't tend to his studies or is otherwise being lazy is starting to annoy him I guess...

    Online Poker - playing from the U.S.

    I miss the days of PokerStars and jumping into low stakes tournaments. I tried out one of the legal subscriptions sites a while back and it was web-based and terrible. What the hell is taking so long to get online poker legalized? Has anyone played on and liked any of the legal sites? I'm...

    Empyrion - Galactic Survival

    One tip that I read is that it can be helpful to place your first base underground to help defend against drones. I don't know; that seems like a lot of work and the drones on the first planet stopped after about 4 or 5 waves. We're going to restart this weekend and we'll definitely focus more...

    I'm still learning the game at this point but I tried raiding a fortress last night since we were starting get decent tech. First, I tried tunneling in but when I got close, I was either inadvertently exposed or the guns shot at me through the ground and I couldn't get my stuff back. So, I...

    Empyrion - Galactic Survival

    I've been looking for something to play with the kids over Christmas and finally bought this. I was looking at Space Engineers (one kid already plays it) and Astroneer. After some research, I decided on E:GS. I liked that it was more of a survival challenge. It has really been a nice...

    Space Engineers - Minecraft in space.

    How is this vs Empyrion? Older threads say Empyrion wins due to better multiplayer but I guess that may change if they have rewritten the network code.

    Been thinking about picking this up as something to play with the kids. Looks okay on Twitch. Anyone playing it?
