    Oblivion - Tom Cruise goes WALL-E

    I did say though that when I watched this, I hadnt seen a single trailer and knew nothing about it other than Tom Cruise and it being Sci-Fi. I think it was a lot more enjoyable. After watching the trailer after the film, I would have been pissed if I saw it before hand. Sure you could probably...

    EQ NEXT ART DIRECTION POLL

    Dammit, I voted before catching up the last 20 pages of the EQN thread. I'd like to change my "dont have a strong opinion" to "I dont like it" after seeing the DE and female Dwarf models. I didnt like the Kerra (mostly the armor) in the original reveal, but the world scenery was good enough to...

    Desktop Computers

    I think you are missing my point. I have no brand loyalty at all and I go where the performance is. I have had AMD and Intel, ATI and nVidia, Seagate and Western Digital, an iPhone and a Samsung Galaxy, etc. My point was that if AMD made chips that rivaled the performance of Intel's offerings...

    Desktop Computers

    They werent any different than Intel. Intel had their "Extreme Edition" CPUs and AMD had their Athlon 64 "FX" lineup. I remember shelling out for a FX-60 back then as well. Athlon 64 was their mainstream chips.

    Hey jackoffs, can I direct you to:http://www.rerolled.org/forumdisplay.php?7-Movie-House No one gives a shit about you arguing about AVP bullshit here.

    "I'm a fucking idiot, what do I do now?", he said to his wife.

    LOL! OP: We at least need a FB picture. You should dish her full info though, especially after the bitchy comments after all was said and done. Nothing to lose at this point!

    Desktop Computers

    Back in 2005 / 2006, AMD cpus were not only cheaper, but superior to the Intel chips for gaming. AMD's Athlon 64 chips were what really turned it around for the company, but late 2006 Intel released the Core 2 Duo and have held the performance crown by quite a margin since then. It would be nice...

    Yea, PSU is definitely upside down. Those holes in the bottom of the case under the PSU are meant for the unit to draw in cool air externally, not hot air from within the case.

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Pyzjn to this day is still my EQ nemesis for the exact reasons you stated. That bitch just never gives up a GBS. I have camped her through many iterations of playing (live, emu, Mac server, etc) and despite killing her countless times, it was always a damn rusty dagger. I still find myself...

    Official EQ Landmark discussion

    Probably a good idea if we can start separating announcements of each into their respective threads. Unfortunately, they havent been very clear to date.

    No better shows have ever existed than Seinfeld or X-files.

    Yea, I never got the hype of this show. After hearing lots raving about the show, including my own brother, I went and downloaded the first couple seasons. S1 barely held any interest and I think I made it halfway through S2 before giving up. It's just another generic zombie bullshit plot. I...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    You know, I really like Kevin Spacey as an actor and I was kinda let down that the Superman film bombed that he was in. Spacey plays these characters well and I thought it was a shame we likely wouldnt get to see him again as Lex. But Cranston? Great choice. I am optimistic again!

    Piecing together a speaker system

    I have done quite a lot of DIY for my HT, including room treatments, decimeter calibration of speakers (for my listening position of course), etc. I just found the wavelength alignment theory a bit dubious. Again, you can wave align at one specific frequency only. Anyway here's some HT porn for...

    God damn server outages yesterday were killing me. Had one rollback, then killed Com2 (for Emp key) and made our way to Com1 for the second piece and right outside the door the server dropped for the 3rd or 4th time. I just went to bed after, but I am going to be ticked off if we had another...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Completely off topic... when I was hiking in rural Bhutan last year, the guide was telling me about their sport of "night hunting". Basically a young guy sneaks into the bedroom window at night to bang his girlfriend. Getting caught by the parents means they are usually forced into marriage...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I wish I could take a new Jeep and just go nuts with these guys: http://www.aev-conversions.com/vehic...ngler-packages Their HEMI conversion kits are pretty crazy too. The largest one for a staggering $29k!

    No better shows have ever existed than Seinfeld or X-files.

    How can you guys go on about Grey's Anatomy and Scrubs without mentioning House? It was vastly superior to both of them. While I absolutely hated the conclusion to Lost, I have to say during its run it was some of the most entertaining television I can honestly say I ever watched week to...

    War with Syria

    Wasn't the big selling point of the F35 that it was a Joint Strike Fighter and that developmental costs would be shared with allies such as the UK, etc? *edit* From Wiki: JSF development is being principally funded by the United States with additional funding from partners. The partner...

    Torrents

    TVTorrents system is great. I use them for anything TV related. As far as IPT is concerned, I always download 1080p blu-ray rips so I have specific uploaders that I go to time and time again based on their quality and reliability. I dont bother with any others.

    Yea, I was moderately active on FoH since the start. Took me a while to find these forums after FoH forums folded though. I hadn't followed any of the behind the scenes drama. Dropped my Tem app on Saturday. Who are you in game?

    We've got warriors Shakerpaging that place. It's much quicker work (doesnt take multiple AE train passes) and a hell of a lot less boxing effort.

    I highly doubt they would do Station Cash upkeep. EQ2 player housing has had upkeep costs in since day 1. The lower end costs game coin and the higher end is a mix of coin and Status Points (earned via Legendary Quests, Raiding, certain named kills, etc).

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    Just remember that AA XP bonus curve I showed. You might be maxing quite trivial skills at the lower levels, while vastly powerful and more costly ones at higher levels are more important. The more AA you blow on "fluff", the more that AA XP bonus tapers off. Dont get stuck in the long grind for...

    Yes, after thinking of this whole BFL scenario I cant help but think they are running the ultimate scam. 1) Charge money up front for Pre-Order Vaporware 2) Use said funds to create the tech 3) Run that tech in-house farming bitcoins for the company as long as possible 4) Difficulty...

    Na, wisps memory for me (as a warrior) was taking the first swing and getting the message about it being invulnerable and needing a magical weapon to damage the mob. Then the wisp proceeds to beat the shit out of me while I could do nothing at all to damage him. Biggest WTF, shock, then smile...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    There is a VERY significant AA modification for players under 4000 AA (on all servers). The breakdown is something like: 0 - 1000 AA = 1000% mod. ie. 10x the AA 1001 - 2000 AA = 750% mod ie. 7.5x the AA 2001 - 3000 AA = 500% mod ie. 5x the AA 3001 - 4000 AA = 250% mod ie 2.5x the AA...

    Piecing together a speaker system

    Am I missing something here or isnt this calculation only valid for 1 fixed point frequency?
