    Last Night in Soho (2021)

    Her and Amanda Seyfried should be in a movie where they both try to steal a very shiny ring from each other.

    You're all arguing points that have nothing to do with mine: Americans are not prepared to compete in a world where they don't have the unfair advantage of controlling the world's money.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    The idea that new business models and human activity are constantly disrupting, up-ending and eventually tearing down old business models, that the future is inherently unpredictable economically, and stability is a myth. So basically just capitalism. Crypto is not going to to stabilize...

    Are you just fucking dumb? Everything you said here is contradictory. Like every single sentence contradicts the one before and after it.

    I promise that you are not prepared to live in a failed state. There will never be "a stable global economy." The whole point of capitalism is poorly controlled creative destruction. Besides, we don't actually want to live in a world with an economy that's fair. In a world that's fair, 4% of...

    That's the old one though. PS: I just bought . Probably a stupid purchase, if it's not amazing I'm just gonna send it back.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes, but Demon Hunters still go brrrr which kept me entertained for almost 2 full years (well, I took a 5 month break before Shadowlands) of this otherwise shitty game before I finally gave up.

    No seriously, I killed 14 people and only had to change the mag twice.

    Dune (2020)

    I stand by my comment in the general case, Dune is just too dense. Villeneuve is not an efficient user of time either, this movie could have been 10 minutes longer, cut out 10 minutes of bullshit transition scenes, and fit in more of the important dialog and expository bits, and then it still...

    Even if it is, still amazing for a 17 year old game that hasn't been fun in the past 10. :)

    Dune (2020)

    This would have been much better as a TV series. The movie felt both super long yet they actually left so much out.

    And too low interest rates. Inflation in housing costs is directly the result of low interest rates, real estate agents have just decided that they're going to take all the savings you're going to get over a 20-30 year mortgage at ridiculously low rates and they can just bake that cost into the...

    Inflation in currencies around the world is certainly a main contributor to the growth of crypto currencies though.

    Battlefield 2042

    DMRs, shotguns and snipers aren't too bad, but playing with the ARs is basically like playing real-time first-person X-Com... just a complete crapshoot whether you hit anything.

    The market is completely detached from the economy - Has been for a while, but it's definitely getting worse. This is what happens when you give rich people infinite money to gamble with. The dollar is dying - Maybe? Hard to say. Crypto is the first real threat to the dollar ever, and crypto...

    Well you could just go do something else instead of making a hobby out of complaining about video games, but then this forum wouldn't exist (which would probably be a good thing.)

    lol no. When you're talking very complex decisions, smart people make the best choice like 60-70% of the time on average. This idea that there are people out there with perfect decision making is a complete fantasy. This is why the key to business success is to get over the natural human...

    I'm using DMRs and shotties exclusively, I feel like ARs don't hit anything.

    Battlefield 2042

    I dunno, I just played 3 consecutive rounds where I had a lot of fun, and I wasn't even playing with anyone, so it's clearly getting better. 90% of the rubberbanding is gone. Dumb buggy shit definitely does still happen though.

    The idea that Kotick doesn't know anything about video games is merely a bad meme.

    I mean, he is actually. But when you set out on a plan to "take all the fun out of making video games" you're naturally going to attract SJWs, because SJWs are literally allergic to fun.

    I'm trying to get a 6800 XT for a computer for my TV, but I'll definitely settle for another 3080 FE at MSRP.

    Speaking of ultrawide, this is a very interesting new option that is also very cheap: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/gigabyte/m34wq

    There were some huge drops today. I had a 3080 FE in the Best Buy queue and got distracted by work stuff before clicking to put it in my cart. Early this morning I got through the AMD Direct queue and the only thing left was a 6700 XT and then it didn't let me put it in my cart.

    Fact: one of them is a fucking idiot who sells key boosts and tweets proudly about it, despite knowing its an incredible disruptive and divisive topic in the community of the game he's supposed to be fixing.

    You're under investigation for pay equity problems, along with sexual harassment, and other concerns like chronic culture of sweeping things under the rug. You counteract by hiring two new co-presidents, one male and one female, and then you don't pay them the same. That's the fucking...

    Did you miss the part about the multiple state and federal lawsuits? There's a lot of shit you just can't expect to get away with as a California company, even if you have a huge halo brand image. If they wanted to act like this they should have moved to Texas a long time ago.

    That's not what I said at all. What I said was that they're fucking stupid to lowball someone when they're already under scrutiny, when the hire is ostensibly to fix the thing they're under scrutiny for.

    I finally got to watch this. It was so good, until Zendaya showed up, and then it was merely okay. Also the fact that I had to crank up the adaptive volume on my TV really pissed me off. This was the absolute worst offender of dialog to bwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaap sound effects/music volume ratio in...

    lol this was me in Planetside 2 and it was fucking awesome. Just SMGing peeps, jump jetting and C-4ing all day. Speaking of which, jump jets would be more realistic than this wingsuit bullshit. I was cliff-diving off the ice cliffs in Breakaway and it was fucking stupid. Fun, but stupid...
