    The Astronomy Thread

    Working in tunnels, I can tell you that the amount of energy / material needed to start excavating shit is too high for an outpost. You'd need heavy machinery with strong steel to dig anything serious. So the first few settlement will most likely be made out of alu and fabric, and direct on the...

    Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition

    Probably the only game where I could look at my wall clock, and when I looked again after what felt like 2 minutes, 6 hours had passed.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    IMHO the CLA catters to younger people with its more aggressive loooks. The C63 is longer than the titanic and has a lot of frills for old people (the massaging seats come to mind). Also, the rear looks meh. The M4, yes, the CLA not yet. The noise did not particulary shocked me, but I was...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Well I do have german blood in my vein ! More seriously, the first time I went on the german highway, I did not go higher than 160-180km/h. You have to feel confident and know your car to go higher. With my poor Subaru legacy 3.0 I can reach 220-230 km/h, but the noise and the vibration are...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Money is indeed not the main issue, although it's a factor. The C63 amg is a nice car, drove it a few time on the german highways, went up to 300km/h (GPS measurement), but I think it's an old person car. The V8 sounds like a beast.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I'm about to change my old Subaru for some german beauty, but I can't really decide which one I should get. The two contenders are the BMW M4 and the Mercedes CLA 45 Amg. The BMW has more power, a more "muscle" look and a better looking cockpit. The CLA is more confortable, has 5 doors, and...

    Green flash caught in Sardegna, Italy. Sorry for the potato quality, but my 200mm only zooms so much.

    Very unimpressive I know, but I'm kinda baffled that I could take Saturn with my dslr, after 3 attempts.

    Must See Concerts Before You (or they) Die

    I saw Qotsa 3 times and 3 times they sucked. Every time it was during a festival so they had limited playtime and maybe a limited sound system, but god was I disapointed. The first time was in 2005 and I thought they needed time to get things going. Last time was like 3 years ago, but they still...

    if you were wondering, a 70cm fall can break your Nikon D810 into pieces, even when in its protective bag.

    Beauty and the Beast (2017)

    Saw it yesterday, and found it below average. Emma Watson was a poor choice, I'm sure Kirsten Stewart could do better. Pros: it's very faithfull to the original disney, Lumière and Big Ben were great, Gaston was great. The story with Maurice was nice. Cons: LeFou - just nope. The opening ball...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I've been driving a legacy since 2014. It's ulgy as hell but has an extremly low maintenance cost and behaves good in the snow. I can even reach 240 km/h on the german highway. Biggest downside for me is the lack of AUX or USB input for my music. The touchscreen (the car is from 2004) is...

    Torture-Worst You Can Imagine.

    I went in Sienna's museum of Torture with my family once.. after 10 minutes my father and I went out, feeling nauseous. The shit people invented.. Worst for me would be the sawing of you body upside down, starting from the crotch. My little sister was giggling the entire time though.

    Civilization VI

    Thank you, much more enjoyable with this enabled. So far the game is ok, it feels slow, probably because of what Quineloe said about the movement cost of units.

    Civilization VI

    Just played for 5 minutes this morning before leaving. Graphics are ok, UI is very small ( I didnt check the option if I can adjust it), what bothered me was that I can't move freely over the map by moving the mouse to the side of the screen, I have to middle-click on a tile to center the screen...

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

    Has anyone tried the HORI TAC 4 for PS4 ? It's a keyboard and mouse combination, and since I totally suck with a gamepad for FPS I'd like to know it this feels like an actual mouse. It's very expensive and I don't know anybody around me that has it.

    Quick question, for a gaming rig, would you rather choose a I7 5930k or the new I7 6700k ? And why ?
