    Weather

    Yeah, this honestly sounds like Texas is kind of fucked. The wind from a hurricane kind of sucks, but it's honestly not a huge deal. But flooding? Man, flooding will do a shit load of damage. And this sounds like biblical flooding.

    The camera guy is so shit for this. Almost rather watch individual streamers. Edit: Game 3 for FPP Duos was much better. And I've got to give them props for having someone from the company come out right at the end saying, "Yeah, we fucked up on this and this, and we'll try to make it better."

    I always wonder about threads like these. Especially the super old ones. Like, were you fucking 5 or something and watching old as shit movies with your grandparents and developed some affinity for Jerry Lewis?

    Investing General Discussion

    It's not. It's a .24% fee just to use their services, at the absolute minimum (higher the less you have). And that's before you even get into whatever the fee is for the fund. That's versus Vanguard where you're looking at probably .1 to .15% for having that small of an amount. I'd also guess...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It just doesn't make sense why Dany would go north of the wall. Nothing that could have been sent with the raven would have changed how she originally felt. "Oh, hey, we actually did find the zombies and it went poorly. Please send help." Well no shit, that was the only logical conclusion for...

    Investing General Discussion

    I highly recommend you don't try to do active trading for long term investing. And if you're not doing active trading, .25% is abysmal. Open an account with Vanguard or Fidelity, pick one of the numerous .04-.07% index funds, and stop trying to think you're smarter than the market.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    One thing that bothers me is how quickly Daenerys drops everything and flies north. Why the fuck didn't she just go to begin with? What could have possibly been written with that raven that changes mind from "fuck you all" to "I'm on my way" in such a hurry?

    The Astronomy Thread

    We flew to visit my wife's family, who are between Hopkinsville and Carbondale. Which is basically dead center between the two big points. Was pretty awesome. Sounds like everyone north and south of us had clouds. We got to see everything, including the shadow snakes (prior to C2, C3 they...

    Apparently on Reddit they did some kind of straw poll and 1st person is the overwhelming favorite. I definitely agree, mostly due to the bullshit of hiding behind stuff and getting sniped. My only complaint is they really need to get the leaderboard activated for it. We've been winning...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I mean, we talk about some of the big trips, but even Tormund just waltzed up to the wall from Winterfell in the blink of an eye. That looks to be, what, 3-4x the distance between Hardhome and the wall? And that was literally just one episode.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I get that. As viewers, we're waiting for that event. But for the characters of the show, they can't know that the wall will inevitably have some trigger event that allows them to pass through. That'd be ridiculous. The whole thing just points back to terrible writing by GRRM, similar to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    At some point did we get some exposition about the White Walkers marching towards the wall? Because even if not, that's the impression we've got. If every time we saw them they were wrecking some shit, it might make sense. But if they've been "marching towards the wall" for the last 4 or 5...

    Sonic Mania

    I don't know why they couldn't do something like Mario Galaxy type levels (without all the pits and shit to fall into space) with super zoomed out 3rd person. By zooming out you can avoid the speed feeling too fast.

    Steam Early Access Gaming - Guilty Pleasure Pick-Ups

    I've actually probably put in more hours into EA games than released at this point. Between PUBG, Rust, and 7 Days to Die I've got a ridiculous amount of hours. I'd say only Dota 2 has more into it than those.

    If you'd read the books, you'd know the answer to that question is yes. Right about the time she got captured by the Dothraki (where she threw her shit in the field for Friendzone to find it).

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jumping on the lazy writing bandwagon, this is absolutely what will happen. What could be explained away by a rational conversation that two people would normally have will get the TV show treatment of, "we'll just talk around it." I don't even blame the GoT writers for that one, because almost...

    Sonic Mania

    Shit, that sounds amazing. Not really sure of the appeal of a 2D Sonic game. I get that there's a lot of money in toned down graphics ever since Minecraft, but this one feels like a money grab.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'd say this was just a throwaway without any forethought. I think I remember a book scene with Tyrion where it was stated something to the extent of a single gold dragon was more money than most common people would ever see in their lifetimes. For a guard to get a kickback of 5 would be...

    Anyone else think that scene was just kind of thrown in randomly? It didn't have very much flow with either the scenes before or after it.

    Davos, Gendry, Tormund, and The Hound bringing the lulz this episode. Pretty fucking excited for the shit beyond the wall. That's like the all star cast of who's remaining on the show that I actually like.

    She just seems like a shitty person. Like, when Jessica went home, Josh started his fucking circus song and Christmas joined in (was hard to hear because of how loud he is).

    No idea how they pulled that out. They got shit on in laning. It was like 0-12 or something? Pretty sure Liquid has TI. For Newbee to win 3 in a row seems unlikely.
