    That came about from people insisting on their own little special snowflake character needed equal pixel distribution.

    EQ Never

    But yet there is Planetside 2, which is a SoE / DB product no less, which handles hundreds of players in the same areas all of the time without issue. As it is a FPS, it is very time / latency sensitive too. What is the excuse again? They have the tech, they lack the innovation to make a...

    My son's friend hit's his mother...Mother kicks son out. Now friend over my house.

    What the fuck? Sounds like there is a lot more to this story from the kid's perspective. Shouldn't hit mom EVER, but there could be some serious issues going on in that home if she is booting out a minor and abandoning a 10 year old at the house, not to mention a couple random 3-4 year olds left...

    Not sure if it counts fall deaths / suicides. (Would be miniscule unless you were a complete tard)

    That uplink is abysmal. 300 down, but only 5 up? Yea, congrats on Google soon!

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I have worked abroad for the last ~16 years. I am American, work for an American company, paid in US Dollars into a US bank. I can relate to all of this. Though, it is easily remedied with a quick VPN connection. You only need to do this when making purchases or account management. I do...

    Planetside 2

    Kill vs Death ratio Kills/Deaths = Ratio X/Y = Z If Y is > X then Z is <1.

    I agree with the latency point, but you can also make the argument that the lowest latency 1600 ram costs you a premium too vs the larger latency 1600 chips. As you said, it is all about a balancing act for cost. If you feel confident overclocking, you can save quite a lot by upping your own...

    No, anywhere from $5-$20 difference for 16GB of DDR3 1600 to 2133.

    I was waiting for the "gaming" disclaimer. Because yes, I process batch files in Photoshop and for damn sure it makes a difference. Not everyone only uses their PCs for gaming.

    Why is that? What would be the point of making ram faster at all then? My DDR3 is cruising along at 2400.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    My son was a surprise to us. She had been on the pill, but later admitted that she hadn't been on point with taking it at the correct time every day. As others have said, it is far more likely that she fucked up taking the pills. Mine did at least admit to it.

    Makes sense, though I would be pretty pissed off. I just bought two 980 Ti cards! Speaking of which, the 980 Ti is the biggest card I have seen in many years. It's nearly 11 inches long and with the ACX 2.0 adds a lot of weight. Beefiest card I think I have ever seen!

    Adventures with Corndog: Corndog's Fish Store

    I agree 100% with this. By all means Corndog, you know what works and what doesn't in your area.. but yea.. if most customers have jobs, how the hell are they supposed to come in to your store when the open hours are the same hours 99% of the workforce is.. working!?

    Lost

    Fuck me, have I stepped back in time with this entire discussion?? I don't know how all of these years later and people still have no fucking clue what happened. The entire events of the Island WERE REAL LIFE! No island "purgatory" bs. Basically Seasons 1-5 = REAL. Season 6 = afterlife wrap...

    For all of its flaws, I still think Lost was a fun ride. But I too liked to pretend the last season never happened. Juliet set off the bomb, fade to white..The End

    The Grand Tour (from the guys in Top Gear)

    The Porsche proudly accounced their best Nurburgring time at 6m57s. Porsche 918 Spyder Tops Global Debut with New Nurburgring Record McLaren accounced their best lap of "under 7 minutes" which leads me to believe the Porsche marginally beat it or else they would have announced their exact...

    I have the S6 and I am stillblown away by it. I thought the battery would be an issue too, but I seem to always have more than 50% battery left on a day's use. I do not think I have used my USB car charger since I bought the thing! It has exceptional daily battery life. This is certainly the...

    So strange, I have put paper towels in the microwave as long as I can remember and never had one so much as turn brown, let alone ignite! Also, how have you never had food splatter in the microwave!?? Thick liquids tend to do it the worst, as well as anything fatty. Eggs are prone to making a...

    I keep a dry paper down on the bottom of the microwave 24/7 for easy spill clean up. It has yet to ever catch fire. Plus, wetting a paper towel and placing it over certain foods while reheating (pasta, rice, etc) can add moisture back to the food during re-heating. God damn microwave noobs!

    So, headed to Malapascua Island with a few friends next month for a big dive trip. I will probably spend a few days in Cebu at the end of the trip. Suggestions / advice? (Never been to the Philippines)

    Biggest performance hit I remember was shadows. It basically runs entirely off of CPU cycles, which the game is already stretching.

    Right, makes sense! I think Mystic is pretty epic too. I remember watching a couple guildies duel in KoS era. Templar vs Mystic and it literally went on for over an hour.

    Pure healing? Templar all the way. Inq gives up some of the healing for dps / cures.

    I played the game in what was basically Alpha / First Beta back when it was in the hands of Microsoft still. Less than 100 people on the server at any given time and holy crap was it a mess!! You could simply bugreport nonstop all day everyday. I gave it another spin when it went to SoE, but it...

    Ah, my fault for skimming.. 192.168 is private. You said "local" and I just assumed you meant your public ISP provided address. Sorry, but I can't be of any help. You covered what I would be looking for. Try and VPN, then test? Just in case your ISP is fucking around with torrents?

    Re quick charge, it's really about getting a quick 10-15min charge if you are in a rush. It can give you plenty of charge on short notice before heading out the door. Here is a review I found: So, We Fast Charged the Samsung Galaxy S6 and This is What Happened | Droid Life Started at 5% 5...
