    Guess I've missed it - only thing I saw was a brief "just back from the hospital" comment in any of the threads I saw... and a defensive reaction like A-Ray got is sorta different to me - although it's complete bullshit to infract like that regardless.

    If he does, I've not seen it really - after my banning on FoH I only monitored stuff lightly so maybe there's some history here I'm missing - but for here he seems to be on a different leaf than ya'll are treating him. Some people absolutely use disability as a weapon sometimes or a shield - but...

    Dude, I can understand he got under your skin - and perhaps he's given some signs of being a disability faker to you - and I like you quite a bit - but you're going over the line to start pushing me to take frustration with you, man. Disability absolutely manifests in dozens of different...

    Nod, I don't assume against either, just getting versed on all angles and possibles - I know for a fact doing two should be no big - four I'd still give high odds, but better to be aware of all options and not need them than the opposite.

    Yea, we don't really give a shit about dropping down to slow data - but not sure what my credit will handle with the new house hitting my debt vs. income ratio before we switch in a couple months - hopefully they don't care if we're not leasing phones as part of the contract how tapped my credit...

    Debating between it and a 2/4 way family plan depending on if the in-laws want to hitch onto it - sounds like the $30 thing might actually be reasonable though - you only have to top it off every 3 months if you don't use up the time right? And there's some amount that counts as free minutes...

    Speaking of prepaid - how does T-Mo prepaid work exactly when it comes to data (especially GPS - use my GPS constantly)? Definitely going T-Mo when I switch out from Sprint, but their prepaid pages are damn confusing to make sense of outside of normal phone functions. (Or other competing...

    Ahh - I'd seen that SKU but didn't see mention that it included the dongle so I'd assumed it didn't.

    Cor: Thanks for that info - 8 hrs of real use on the G2 and it should get another 20% based on that envelope tracking thing if that's to be believed, and the reduced screensize - holy shit it might actually be a smartphone you can play with all day without killing the battery finally?! Hell...

    So you admit to being a fag? The avatar makes so much more sense now... I can't imagine the intestinal fortitude required for that though... (Or is it colonial fortitude?)

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Doesn't look substantially cheaper on wireless ones - wired is looking $35 - so even that TR one you're theorizing is only $5 cheaper - so dongle ($19) + 2 controllers at that price would still be a net loss, and require batteries at some rate...

    As a 7970 owner you literally just gave me wood which is disturbing with that avatar you use of that Lemmy (Motorhead) looking dude. Ok.. ok... not literally but man, I'm happy to hear that. (And got a 1000W PSU so no worries on overloading the PSU I'd imagine...)

    How much longer should that battery last in comparison for a battery numbers newb? Linear increase or something more exponential? And that pricing is nummy.

    That does need to be reversed - PC/Console war shit is annoying, but shouldn't be an infraction thing - just a verbal smackaround thing if anything.

    Heh, that's a nice summary for me that I probably should've stuck to (although not quite 40 yet... still got another 4 weeks...)... both are nice to have if you can afford the money/time/space to make appropriate use of both.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    That is a good point Sean - going console does allow a certain level of slack that can't always be done on PC. hodj: Odd, my electric engineer bro-in-law and sister-in-law were always subscribed to the idea of turning them off as well and one of them was the first suggesting it to me to do...

    Used to be that way, still do sometimes - but now it's a nice option to reset it overnight. (i.e. will leave it overnight if I'm torrenting - but otherwise why waste the electric?)

    Dunno man, after going to 4-7 sec boot times from 45-90 sec boot times, its really hard to go back to the old way of thinking - gains for games are really hit or miss in my experience (I try everything on the SSD first and move it to the physical drive if I'm not noting any performance...

    Got a Logitech one since as well that's "360 styled" and wasn't fond of it either - I think it's just alien to how I'm used to PC games feeling an adaption process that I just need to muddle through at some point.

    I was hoping to convey that in my post - I'm starting to see why it might be confusing to some - making me feel like when I had to try to teach the in-laws how to use a touchscreen phonepad instead of a standard old school dial pad with real buttons. Perhaps it's something I'll have to make a...

    Ever think that social anxiety might only be part of the equation? Plus it is something that can be medicated for (or otherwise dealt with - maybe he gets drunk before going to them - would help with it for midnight releases but not real work) - or it's possible his store he uses is slow as...

    "I found them unworkable" - absolutely not a subjective statement... to be honest the more I think about it I don't think I've EVER found a controller based game I liked on PC. Literally zero I can think of has worked well with my office setup for me, likely do to the relaxing factor - hell...

    And I further elaborated perhaps it's the larger TV experience or being able to chill on the couch while doing it which is inconvenient as hell for my PC setup - subjective, but absolutely accurate to my experience with trying it pre and post PS3 controller on PC.

    Maybe it's just the experience of throwing it on the TV instead and being able to relax while playing it - don't keep my PC near the big TVs in the house. (Of course even then, would still be tethered by the controller without a large investment to do a wireless PC controller setup - such a...

    Heh, it's been a long slog - 3 years of barely being able to walk most of the day, then about 2 years of mental conditioning has gotten me to where I am hopefully about to get back to things. It's been an effort even with medication working - and known more than few people with various...

    Big thing to me with jumping on day one for PS4 (And maybe XBOne - maybe... still on the fence about grabbing one if I see it on the shelf never did renew a P/O) is the PS+ and if they improve it XBOne free games programs - the value just gets ridiculous after a while, hell just Driveclub alone...

    Funny thing is I used to be the same - now I'm honestly stir crazy all the time and never want to be here - frankly 2/3 of why I want to go back to work has entirely to do with wanting to work from an entertainment/social standpoint, I'll probably actually be losing money once the "work trial"...

    That was a pretty weak zinger for that if that's what it was intended to portray - and as a hirer before my illness social anxiety making someone unworkable for a business is certainly a real thing.
