    Why not Bermuda?

    This is exactly how college kids feel about Rhode Island until about the third week of October sets in and they realize New England winters come early and are a total bitch. Anyway, I've been thinking about Bermuda. Tons of transatlantic cable runs through there, I wonder if you can get really...

    Murderhobos.

    In the game I mentioned previously, the hardest part of dealing with murderhobos in an appropriately challenging way was coming up with min-maxed small parties of enemy murderhobos to pose an actual challenge. It was fun at first but as the game progressed above level 15 it started to strain...

    If I want ipv6 on my Verizon FIOS should I just switch back to their router or get a better Ubiquiti or Mikrotik router?

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    SIlly aliens are pretty consistent with Star Wars movies, and yeah, Anakin's dialogue through all 3 movies is what really drags the whole trilogy down.

    I thought the first Cap film was great and I am not a Cap fan. I just watche most of Episode I tonight while working and and it's really not that bad. It's at least a real Star Wars movie, unlike 7-9.

    The Mandalorian

    I assumed this was going to be shit, and I didn't have Disney+ but then I realized Verizon gave me Disney+ for a year when I signed up. So I watched the first 3 episodes and it's not bad?

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Anakin's is horrible and it can't be saved by Hayden Christensen's non-existent acting skills. The only saving grace of the prequels is that, much like his predecessor, Ewan McGregor did his absolute best to act the hell out of the shit material he was given to work with.

    This might have made more sense if they gave a little more time to develop Quigon and also if ALL THE ANAKIN DIALOGUE WASNT CRINGEY AS FUCK.

    Cheated out of my youth

    A lot of male teachers touch and harass girls, but don't actually try to fuck them. Some men can't help themselves when it comes to touching and making rude comments. You know, like Joe Biden.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    PoE introduces lots of new systems every league and is considered a great game. With WoW, the gear is so disposable from tier to tier, they need some additional systems that have some persistence across the whole expac. Essences did a pretty good job here, I thought. The problem is they over...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Really? WoD zones looked the best of all the expacs if you ask me. Northrend was probably second best though, and Northrend zones had the best story flow. Icecrown was especially great. So many quest chains that lead seemlessly into the next as you take over various parts of the zone.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    I think a big recession would create a resurgence of the work-like MMO. I'm convinced that's what made WoW so popular.

    Battlestar Galactica

    The only way this quote makes any sense and the show is still reasonably called Battlestar Galactica and actually "within the mythology" is if it's the story of Battlestar Galactica during the first war.

    You're negotiating your return to the matrix. What are your demands to give up Morpheus?

    If we're going that far, just delete all the men. That would get rid of at least 85% of all crime. All chicks, no fatties, maybe a smattering of dickgirls just so things don't get too boring. Some Sapphic BDSM Nazis would fit in there somewhere. We already know the Matrix has a lot of fetish...

    The 27GL83A is the same as the 27GL850 but without the USB ports and 120 dollars cheaper. The ViewSonic ELITE XG270QG is technically better and has a real G-SYNC module but holy shit the calibration is terrible out of the box and it's expensive and you'll probably have to buy a calibrator.

    Because you don't want to piss away half of your GPU/CPU performance on sections of the screen you won't be looking at? - Valid, but there's other options. This monitor has picture-by-picture. Because you value the health of your neck? - This would be replacing 2x 27inch monitors, so no change...

    Er, DPI rather. I dunno how DPI scaling works on Macs but I assume it's gotta be there somewhere. Oh, nevermind, "scaled" is their version of DPI settings. It scales the text and other elements to match what it would look like on a different resolution monitor. What a backwards ass way of...
