    Jurassic Park 4

    Just got around to watching the latest trailer. Forget about the obvious plot issues, but why does the CGI look so terrible!? That is more immersion breaking than anything to look at. Zero hopes for this movie. Such a shame.

    Buhton

    I booked the tour locally out of Nepal. It was ~3 years ago, so I really can't help you there. Is that $4k package per person, or as a couple? It would be reasonable if it were a couple rate.

    Buhton

    That's pretty damn pricey! Like I said, the fee is flat $250 per day and the tour guide is inclusive of everything already mentioned in your itinerary (guide, driver, lodging, food, etc). Bhutan makes this a requirement for all travellers and the guide / drivers are all licensed locals through...

    Depends how hardcore you want to go. I have a Synology Diskstation 5 bay NAS with 5x4TB drives in RAID5. Torrenting 1080p movies and TV adds up quickly. I am at about 8TB of used space. The Synology is probably huge overkill for most consumers. You can do quite a lot with it.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    Most ISPs will just demand that you use their product if you want support from them. Understandable, as they can't expect to troubleshoot an infinite number of router brands and configurations. I have never used the provided equipment though. It's usually garbage quality anyway.

    Smartphones

    Pretty damn sure, the default setting is no autoplay over carrier data. They will autoplay if you are connected to home WiFi. (You can change these default behaviors in settings)

    Bhutan was god damn amazing. Spent about 5 days there. It is basically the land that time forgot. You feel as if you stepped back in time a few centuries. In my travels, I found that they only got television back in 1999. Marijuana grows absolutely everywhere (called weed for a reason). The...

    Nuvigil, Alertec, or other shift work/night work medications.

    Yea, I do 4x12 per week on nights. Fuck all that nonsense about swapping shifts all over the map. That would really fuck me up.

    Nepal 7.9 Earthquake

    As someone who went to Nepal a few years back and did some trekking, you sound like dicks dismissing the Base Camp deaths as rich white people deaths. That's absolutely not true. The Base Camp trek does not require money or significant mountaineering skills at all. Just a moderate level of...

    You can get around it with using the second account on another PC / Laptop with a VPN. (Maybe even same PC running a VM and VPN?) I am fairly certain staff is not ok with this.

    NeverGrind: EQ inspired, browser-based single player RPG

    I don't know how you would bot this unless you were farming total noob zones. I had probably 6+ deaths yesterday trying to grind xp mobs +/-1 or 2 levels of me. Most of those were due to fucking double ambushes. Getting 2-3 named pop on deck at once is pretty much insta death. XP loss hurts at...

    I enjoy the PVP, abhorr the Holo zerg raids. Stuff I mentioned in the thread here last week.

    Think I'm out gents. Need to liquidate all my chanter gear. Got some pimp stuff like a NoS, Tranix Crown, Shiny Robe of the Underfoot, etc. If anyone needs a chanter gear kit, we can talk.

    I am guessing he had a ton of banked gear just in case he did die. Pretty easy leveling up with a bank full of twink stuff. I also saw he posted that he was using +Exp Find gear over defensive gear, which is what he attributes to his first death. Exp greed! Funny enough, I first rolled a...

    Unfortunately, the way EQ is so unbalanced as fuck in PVP, it mostly is just a numbers game. From what I have seen, Holo just throws a stupid number of bodies at a raid mob to kill it in 0.2 seconds while another mass zerg fends off the "competition". The recruitment process is basically "Hi...

    Smartphones

    Go find a showroom / friend with a 6+, put it in your pocket, sit and stand a few times. (Probably best to tell the shop what you are doing first) For me, it becomes a matter of user friendliness. If I can't open and sent texts with one hand easily, it is a no go for me.

    This is my biggest gripe. I love how the demo feeds on the 4k TVs often show sports in AMAZING detail! I would buy the fuck out of that if it were available today. We are fucking years away from that on the service provider side of the puzzle. Tech is just so far ahead of our actual media...

    Elaborate? I have to be honest, I hate the Holo raids. It's probably the most clusterfuck zerg noobie shit I have ever experienced in all EQ Live / Emu gaming. Fucking amateur hour at its best. They dominate by sheer zerg numbers and it's just tedious listening to Teamspeak. It has really put...

    Or you could just buy the ones that are already de-shelled. No idea how people have the patience to dick around with those bags of shell-on sunflower seeds. I am cashew guy anyway. Pistachios are about my limit for fucking around with shells.

    Ranger has kick which has only 40% chance to interrupt and it's an 8 second cool down. This guy casts every couple seconds, taking 30-40% of my hp per shot. Just seems extremely out of scale.

    So what the hell is the deal with this Revenant Viston boss? I have just barely 1000hp and the fucker just chain casts Energy Bolt for 400 a pop. I have died at least 6 times in a row and it hasn't even remotely been a close fight.

    So, did you say you were going to individually email people for their Legendary Item suggestions? Because when you originally asked, you only asked what class we wanted an item for, so that was all I replied. Unfortunately, it does not seem to let me access that question again for feedback.

    Curious if the Ranger spells "Thistlecoat" and "Shield of Brambles" are tuned correctly? I am currently level 28 and Thistlecoat is only 1 damage shield, and Brambles is 2 damage shield. (Per the mouseover tooltip description) Doesn't seem like very much at all.

    Yea, I filled mine out already based on your question. You only asked what class we wanted an item for. I had no idea we could request full customization. And I get a 404 to that survey link now. Hmm..
