    You know you're getting old when.....

    I fell, no biggie when you are young but not cool now. Gashed the shit out of my left big toe and scraped my knee's/arm/leg. Body thought that wasn't enough and said FUCK YOU and legs immediately cramped up. Tomorrow will be the big reveal to 'your ass is old', when I cannot move. Heh , good...

    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    I looked last night and it doesn't matter , my monitors are not DV compatible. All I really knew about it was to not download them as the colors are all funky.

    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    I don't know shit about Dolby vision other than the rips look green / purple like was shown before. Is there a VLC type program that can play them correctly or is this a hardware thing? Also does it look THAT much better? I don't have the $$$ to be an audiophile any more nor the space for a...

    Cost/time & maintenance of a water loop system vs pop in AIO and go for around the same temps = no brainer for me. My new system with the red devil 7900 xtx is the first build in a long time that I didn't buy a GPU with an AIO loop. Custom ones look better 1000%

    Wow that's where I *thought* I wanted to go. Life/health had other ideas. I had to sell my scopes as it they were collecting dust. It was all too heavy to lug/set up and that was with help. I got a ZWO SeeStar S50 and I have to admit I am loving it! Yeah I totally wimped out but this thing...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Ok so I went down this rabbit hole. Now I guess my rustle today is that I come on this website to laugh at stupid shit and occasionally moan, NOT LEARN SOMETHING! Actually that's neat/sad/and fucking retarded at the same time.

    Playstation 5

    know any non-MS company that rebuilds Elite 2's? My bumper buttons are fucked, and the sticks need replacing. Damn if I'm paying MS $99 to fix it. Not so much the cost as the fact the bumpers would be fine if they didn't cheap out on the switches. I became an expert on fixing Xbox 360's (I...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Well beat the helicopter finally, did a few missions , and realized I cannot play this game. Too many meds/age/lack of twitch all I'm doing is getting my ass kicked as I cannot keep up with what is going on. Not a put down on the game, more on me. I knew I sucked at these type games, that's why...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I won't stop reading IE's books, I like anything in this universe. I didn't like Kharakanas books either, think I gave up mid 2 (or maybe 1) as it seemed like he was rambling. I'll give it another try when he finishes. I'm in book 3-4 now of the main 10. Funny , 3rd reread and it's still...

    Cannot remember why I swapped. Did NZBGet have an option to shutdown the PC when finished? That may be why. I never had an issue with it , just changed.

    What I don't understand is , WHY? What was wrong with that. I'm sure it wasn't as good are our memberrrys think it was but it was way better than the inconsistent overpriced garbage they sell now. Also I guess, get off my lawn!

    Health Problems

    I had to have my annual done during high-COVID. Treated like lepers , had to wait in the car till called. Rush in get poked, rush out. I did the 12 / 12 capsules with water. Had to pay for them extra but it was $40 well spent not to have to drink all that shit. Glad it worked out well for you...

    Getting quotes to repaint the exterior of my house. First time I've lived anywhere long enough for the paint to go , and it's in the desert of NV. Anyhow I got a quote from a painting contractor that did a house for a work friend of my wife's. He's 3k to pressure wash, caulk , and paint complete...

    Well said! I was trying to explain to my wife and MIL what he does and failed at it. Since brain surgery , thinking of words has become impossible. All I could come up with was Carl Sagan and neither of them had heard of him. They are British so maybe he was never popular there? Also , where...

    So this happened today I took my wife and mother in law, they are not as big of space buffs as I am. If you've listened to NGT's videos/shows and/or read a few of his books you have heard everything he went over in this 2 hour lecture. The only relatively new item to me was 'White Holes'...

    Same planes, could be the same location. That sure looks like Eastern NC in @lurkingdirk 's Pic. I was 20' past a ' do not pass' line and had my brother take a pic of me standing in the parking lot of the flight line for SJAFB's F15E's.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    yeah but that's different. I never felt like I was forcing myself to play ER, even when I was getting my shit pushed in by , well everything. FF7 Rebirth is really really really good in places. And really really really fucking annoying in others. Last June taught me that Life is Short (tm) and...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I was around 90 hours and that's about when I start losing interest in a game. I'd made it to the final land area (Nibel) and for whatever reason was having a hard time finding the damn Chocobo. Look at a spoiler and of course it's obvious now. Not really feeling the land masses on this game...

    Fallout

    Like @Burns says it's more JA than Xcom. I remember being bummed when it came out as it had a barely there story to justify the missions and not much else. I bought it new when it came out then on GOG later in life. Fallout 1 was the 1st game I bought on GOG (I also seem to remember it was one...

    Glad I dodged that bullet. I didn't even consider intel this build cycle. They are basically backing themselves into a corner like the did with the pesshot P4's.

    Just finished it , love it. Solid 8/10. Story was ok , not sure how close it was to the games. Loved the game references and the ending where Just loaded Fallouts 1 & 2 on my GOG account. Time for replay #23424 Hell I may even do Tactics.

    NZBgeek + sabNZB here, zero issues. I did NZBGet initially ,after I dumped the hot garbage that was newsleecher, but AFAIK it's no longer getting updates. Using Tweaknews.eu for server. Does cost some $$$ , not a ton and you can get the cost back in value in one month.

    Thanks Guys ! I read their whole website last night and did not get the warm / fuzzies. In fact it felt like a giant honey trap. I advised her not to mess with it. Partially because I'm the one that will get all the headaches when the damn thing inevitably doesn't work.
