    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Might depend on the age, a few years ago my friends kids who are young (like 7? 8?) asked for 3DSes not tablets.

    Windows 10

    The only bad part with Vista was heavy system requirements, 10 is actually poor UX and anti-user behaviour by Microsoft. Personally I would describe Windows 10 as worse than Windows 7 in almost every way.

    DOTA 2

    Didn't Miracle get dumpstered by getting roamed on mid all 3 games? To me they have the same issue as Secret (particularly with Universe playing) where the cores combine to need too much space then they pick supports that can't protect the lanes. Fata didn't typically play too many farm...

    DOTA 2

    Same thing happened to Doom though, they gave a crazy buff to scorched earth which made him unkillable then took it away. Timber despite being a better hero (Doom has nothing going for him currently) gets not only regen but armour too. Tobiwan speculated that TI might be hosted outside of...

    DOTA 2

    Curious what others think of the teams after we've seen them playing in MDL. Obviously still early days but... Secret seems like the weakest incarnation of the team, only really running MVP Phoenix strats? EG, looks great, a lot more coordinated & cohesive than I would have expected OG seems...

    Nice to see LuminousInverse back casting a real tournament.

    100 Greatest TV Shows of All Time (Rolling Stone Magazine)

    Depends on what you're into really, none of the top-5 were interesting to me. Wire I haven't watched at all the rest were a few episodes and didn't bother thereafter. Of the top 20 I only like 5 and its a travesty that South Park is only 33, after 20-years its still managing to stay relevant...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    Ran into this band on Google Play listening to Andrew Stockdale radio (of Wolfmother)

    Building a server for all your needs.

    For those of you running OwnCloud, make sure you stay on top of updates I've been reviewing CVEs for years and that software regularly appears there. I used to use a lot of VMs but a while ago I switched to using lower power systems instead. A raspberry pi 3 is generally fast enough costs...

    DOTA 2

    Blech, MDL appears to be on Azubu? I guess at least its in completely the opposite timezone so mostly have to watch vods anyway.

    DOTA 2

    Isn't it just half his nick? I recall him being SwindleMelonzz before. I haven't had the chance to watch any WESG games, but some of the teams seem pretty awesome particularly that one German stack.

    DOTA 2

    The greed is still pretty high on that roster, wonder if they will be able to make it work.

    DOTA 2

    Its probably SingSing's fault, someone did that exact build / combo against him so half the dota world saw it ;)

    Its weird watching this Malaysian SEA tournament and seeing commercials for local malls, etc.

    DOTA 2

    Team NP (in order): Aui, Envy, MSS, SVG, 1437. I like the players but given the number of failed teams with a number of them its hard to see it working out. Would be nice to see a second legitimate NA roster.

    DOTA 2

    Fata is out of Liquid it seems. Both Arteezy & Miracle aren't on teams now right?

    DOTA 2

    Pretty unprecedented really. Secret - first time, lets out play them, second time lets out think them, third time lets recruit a bunch of new players who will follow puppey blindly. I have a hard time seeing that roster working, it seems a bit too much like Secret Arteezy + EE from a farming...

    DOTA 2

    Why the fuck would I play ranked? I don't play all pick and my experience has been other than dealing with stacks the people quite simply more enjoyable to play with. I don't conveniently ignore it I choose not to play ranked. Stacks are the minority of ongoing games, if they can't find a...

    DOTA 2

    I would disagree, the experience for the solo player is always completely awful. As someone who is solo 99% of the time even 3-stacks in general are bad as typically they all will pick cores and on average 1.5 of them are below the bracket skill often significantly. How come it wasn't an issue...

    Slacks not getting his $9 share of 9 million either :p I think they need to fix the stupid bi-directional translation. If a Chinese team wins, have a Chinese interviewer and have the translator bring the convo to English, etc. etc.

    Welp, looked good for a while.

    DOTA 2

    This game he was never really put in a position where he could do something. During the last draft after Mirana, Timber I had hoped they'd be sneaky and put the Mirana on a support.

    DOTA 2

    Yea its super over.

    DOTA 2

    In retrospect, the DC draft lacked initiation just doom walking in and hoping they don't have vision.

    DOTA 2

    25 minutes... I don't think this pace favours DC unless Naga is building a radiance. How is Mirana this poor?

    I like how DC almost always manages to leave their drafts ambiguous until near the very end.

    skywrath too cute I think. Resolution isn't farmed enough on that void to carry.

    DOTA 2

    I wonder if Valve was trying to push first prize to 10 million this year hence the 44% instead of the 36% last.

    DOTA 2

    I think ppd might have given Wings a template for drafting against DC, DC seemed to find it harder each time to get a good draft.

    Its like TI4 where they didn't bother creating intros for a few teams because they assumed they'd be out....

    Something super rare - DC has been regularly using the tinker ward.

    DOTA 2

    Yea, it feels like EG has figured out the draft. Would rather see DC in the finals shame they didn't grab Viper or something last game for mid .....

    DOTA 2

    Probably because he had zero armour because of Elder Titan.

    DOTA 2

    I think w/ jakiro mid the offlaner needs to get farmed. Even before the top fight it was hard to see DC win.

    DOTA 2

    I kinda feel they should have backed once they forced the stone gaze.

    DOTA 2

    I think Jakiro mid may have been too cute.

    I always liked her since she never did the tarted up streamer crap.

    DOTA 2

    DC isn't a wildcard, they won regional qualifiers. Complexity was the regional wildcard. This is officially weirder than deadmau.
