    Survivor

    I want to say I read that they have to stick with a certain plan prior to shooting, based on the money they pay. So, for example, they can't just go switching up competitions because of who is still in the game. I'd imagine the twist was already laid out prior to the season starting.

    That reminds me that Chrissy annoyed me for the last month because she was so focused on Ben. Her entire game at the end revolved around some kind of spite she had for Ben, which I can't figure out why (I swear she's the one who turned on him, was she not?). I almost think had they ignored Ben...

    Survivor

    Probably the best final 3 there's ever been. Even the goat in Ryan had a decently convincing argument. Normally it's someone who was just completely shit at the game, but he made decent efforts outside of being terrible at challenges. I really disliked Chrissy (she seemed like an ass, and her...

    DOTA 2

    At Summit everyone was saying everything is shit to play. Support is crap because all you're doing is denying, deaths don't matter, mid heroes are all boring. The game is in a weird place right now.

    They need to do something with Sumail. His decision making lately is poor. Either dump him, or figure out what's wrong with his brain.

    DOTA 2

    This seasonal MMR is a shit show. I'm one of the uncalibrated, and most of my recent matches have been with Crusader 1-4's (1800-2200 MMR). So there's no way I'm anywhere near Archon (2500-3200 MMR). And yet, we got matched against 3 Archons. Oh, and we had a Guardian 5 (1500 MMR). So unless the...

    They are billions

    I swear I saw a review of this one on YouTube not too long ago (Worth a Buy maybe?) and they said it was punishingly hard.

    WTF with this whole EE and 2 rax down thing. That's at least twice now just in this tournament.

    Feel bad, because from around 10-20 minutes they were looking really good. Once that butterfly came out for Medusa though, it was over.

    Not sure she's even that attractive. There any pictures where she doesn't have a pound of makeup on?

    LGD and Sacred absolutely had no business in this tournament. And yeah, EG sucks. OG was pretty awesome yesterday; lots of flaming the players which is always entertaining.

    I'd guess his wife gave him some kind of ultimatum. Also likely a condition of her staying with him was that he publicly shame himself to Twitch.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    I guess it depends on what his squat was before. If he's only ever squatted below 3 plates, well, yeah, he's going to stall out well before then. If he used to squat 350+, he'll probably be good to go. In my experience, taking substantial time off can lead to it basically feeling like noob...

    What the fuck was that game 2 of Optic/Fnatic?

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    So I guess I'm confused what the issue is. I've got a GTX 1060. Should I just not buy it? Like I said, I used Movie Studio 14 for the month trial and liked it. If the rendering time is comparable, I think that'd be fine.
  17. Gravel

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, that was weird, because at the start I was thinking Optic was going to get absolutely shit stomped. Naix had pretty good farm despite the Bat, and once Medusa comes online it's basically over. I have a feeling Medusa might get nerfed soon, even though I feel like she's always been that...

    Except that's talking about 13, not 14, which is what the Humble Bundle has?

    Wow, that's a fucking killer deal. I had been saving my $15 coupon you get when you do the trial of any Magix product for the inevitable sale on Vegas, figuring I'd buy Vegas Movie Studio for $50. But fuck me, $20 for Vegas Pro? That's a god damn steal.

    That's weird, because it was an issue probably sometime in the summer and they ended up fixing it. Only to reintroduce it again later.

    I'm pretty sure in either the last season of Top Gear, or first episode of this, he basically said "this is the future."

    Survivor

    It's hard to feel sympathy too, because they decided to make this super strong 4 person alliance, and it lasted all of a week (which is like 3 days of game time). Granted, they didn't act on voting out Ben last week, but they tossed his name around. At that point their alliance was already over...

    Also, even more fucked up with the whole Eververse thing is that apparently people who didn't buy the DLC can still get DLC shit from lootboxes. So they're fucking everyone here, except people who buy lootboxes.

    I don't know what to make of it. I'm not in any crypto right now, and the only reason I want in is for FOMO (fear of missing out). That's a terrible reason to invest in anything. And with how volatile this is, everything tells me to avoid it like the plague. It's very conflicting. I could see...

    Not only that, but it's been six fucking weeks! I bought a full priced game, and 6 weeks later the company says, "Uh, yeah, about that...please fork over another $15." I didn't ask for that. In fact, I didn't play D1 at all because I don't own a console. I don't give a shit what happened in...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Need to figure out a way to get a refund through Amazon. And yeah, after my post yesterday, I did some reading and the shit they did with this DLC is unethical. They've gated base game content to be available only to people who own the DLC. I think this is actually more outrageous than the...

    Investing General Discussion

    I have no idea what you're talking about for the most part with that (seems complicated), but that seems kind of like something no one is going to be doing. If you're in the 15% bracket right now, you likely don't have extra cash to write a check to the state as a floater to get 3% interest on...

    Ugh, forgot about that "challenge." I already hate the family episodes, but to make it random luck of the draw? Not sure what they were thinking on that one.

    What a bunch of fucking clowns. Lauren fucked up big time. She really had two outs, and she threw them both away. The idol could've been played to save herself, although that's assuming the scramble still happens without Dr. Mike throwing half of it in the fire. And she also left the second...

    Must be what the critics were bitching about when they said "less than 2 months after release and Bungie is forcing you to buy a DLC to continue playing?"

    Curb your Enthusiasm

    Yeah, I enjoyed the last episode a lot. Overall the season was a great success (I'd even go as far as calling it pretty, pretty good). The only downside is that I have no idea if this will be the last season, or we're waiting another 2, 3, or 4+ years.

    Yeah, I've heard Ululani is the best shave ice on any of the islands. That shit is no joke, I highly recommend it. When we got to Kauai, we went to Wailua Shave Ice after a bike ride, which Tripadvisor said was one of the better ones. It seemed like normal shaved ice you'd get in the states...

    'Netflix' for Textbooks

    I'd guess this is to combat the textbook rental business. That said, I kind of figured they had won that battle by incorporating the "one time use" codes for whatever online access or other bullshit they came up with. That really crushed the used textbook market.
