    Just FYI, the EVGA issues were limited to FTW edition cards only. Keep away from those and you are ok. Even if you had one, EVGA will straight up swap you for a corrected card.

    People finally realizing how shitty the writing is? This isn't anything new with TWD. It has always been this terrible.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Fired this back up. Made a Rogue for a 3rd box. Should hit 65 tonight and already have 3 / 4 EP gods dead! =D

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Ah yes, I should clarify. Defensive never worked on SK. Same as you, it seemed like it didn't mitigate a thing. Evasive did work!

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    When I left, Maze half ass fixed SK Defensive. He had it working server side, but you had to use an older spell file to get it working properly. Unfortunately, I deleted it a while back. I am sure someone else has it. (Nisea or Nima)

    Anyone cleared Time yet? My SK / Shm is still sitting there half Time flagged. Thinking of poking around here again. Ideas for a 3rd box to go with said SK / Shm?

    "Tsunami" estimated to be 1-3 meters (3-9 feet). Doesn't seem to be much happening.

    Computer Chairs

    Another note for durability. HM Aeron are praised in this thread repeatedly for a reason. I can attest, as we have HM Aeron chairs here at my office (gov IT work). We are a 24/7/365 shop and this building and the chairs at our desks are just over 8 years old. A couple of the dudes here weigh a...

    Fair enough.. but I mentioned the premium service because you can get 320kb/s "high quality" streaming with that. It's pretty damn hard to distinguish from lossless at that rate. If you really have a hard-on for truly lossless audio, you can sub to Tidal. (uncompressed FLAC streaming)

    The Grand Tour (from the guys in Top Gear)

    That's another good point. They can't really push cars to their max because the slightest mistake = totaled car and possibly a dead driver. It also favors cars that are quicker in turns, as they mentioned the "not so straight" is not straight, so renders raw HP and speed much less of a factor...

    Smartphones

    Seems pretty isolated? Not heard of any other Galaxy phones having issues. I am curious how many battery issues have been influenced by shit tier Chinese 3rd party manufacturer chargers. These new Samsungs have "Adaptive Fast Charging", which allow them to be charged super quick. But to do so...

    I haven't downloaded or had a "library" of music in ages. Who doesn't stream these days? $10 a month for Spotify premium is pretty damn hard to beat. Not to mention I have discovered tons of songs and bands I never would have without it.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    @Crone you are struggling with IPT ratio? I use IPT almost exclusively for movies, but it seems you are struggling with TV series downloads? I would get seeding Freeleech movies. I download BluRay copy freeleech movies for 90% of my IPT use. Maintaining ratio on IPT is probably the easiest in...

    The Grand Tour (from the guys in Top Gear)

    You've clearly not paid attention to Top Gear then. These 3 cars are the pinnacle of engineering and technology and people have been dying to see a 3 way comparison since their release. Ferrari have been pussies about it and refused their car to be timed as well as other issues from Porsche and...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The big Porsche SUV is Cayenne, not Cheyenne! You can't really compare the Macan to the X5. The X5's competitor is the bigger Cayenne. Unless things have changed, the X5M still holds the performance SUV crown. The Cayenne is nice, but Porsche will nickel and dime you for every single item you...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Eh, I gave away my SK's full suit (sans BP) of EP armor and BoW. Don't think I could bother coming back. 3 boxing is definitely a nice addition for you guys though! Glad someone picked this up from the ashes and made a new home for everyone.

    Everquest Mysteries

    EQ drama was serious business! Ahh.. crazy how we got so wrapped up in that shit. 55k is pretty damn trivial though. Hell, Fungi Tunics sold for more than that back in that era. Just goes to show how worked up people got over pixel drama.

    Planet Earth II

    At the end of every episode, there is a mini doc on filming that particular episode. They focused on volcano / penguin island this time. Not sure if you missed it or it wasn't included in whatever media you watched it from.

    You buy a brand new TV with sound system... what movie do you watch on it first

    Visal / Audio would be two different tests for me. Visually, it would have to be a documentary flick like the latest "Planet Earth 2" series. Audio, "Master and Commander" naval ship battle scene has always been my go-to test. Amazing sonic range from ultra deep bass from cannon fire to...

    Planet Earth II

    Fantastic first episode! Some of those panning shots of the Volcano island with the millions of penguins was nuts. It looked too damn good to be real. I would have sworn CGI too! haha!

    The Documentary Thread

    Eh, I think it is exactly that. To show the nature and beauty of the earth overall. Hence "Planet Eath". The BBC, and David Attenborough has thousands of hours worth of very specific topical documentaries if that is your thing. I think this just highlights some spectacular things in nature and...

    @Utnayan I assume when you say you RMA'd it, you RMA'd back to Amazon or wherever you bought it? They likely just shipped you another faulty card from manufacturer. You have to RMA directly through EVGA to get a replacement card that has been hardware fixed. Retail websites will have stock of...

    Woah woah.. back off the PSU cliff... Sorry I couldn't have replied earlier, but there is a manufacturer's defect with the FTW cards! I too found out after the fact when I had purchased a 1080 FTW and had weird black screen issues. Later researched and there is a hardware fault and EVGA will...

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    Don't feel like reading the last 40 pages of the thread. The only question I had for the comic nerds is what Apocalypse meant when Jean went full out Phoenix and he said something like "there is another" before being vaporized. What is all of that about? Overall, the movie was meh. They need to...

    Doctor Strange (2016)

    I found the humor pretty damn tacky and forced at times to be honest. The stupid cape shenanigans was cringe worthy. Visually it was pretty entertaining, but I still rank this pretty far down the Marvel ranking in quality. Better than IM2/3 though. 6/10 for me.

    Smartphones

    I can't speak for the pixel, but the biggest selling point for me with the S7 Edge is the battery life. I haven't owned a phone that was remotely as good as keeping a charge. I can often go a full true day to a day and a half (two if im hardly active) on a single charge. I know Kegkilla kept...

    Home buying thread

    Regarding prices, I find the exact opposite true around military towns. Everything is overinflated in its own little bubble economy because there's concentration of military all earning set housing rates. If local prices go up, housing allowances will tend to follow eventually. You end up with a...

    I've had mine since release and I can still occasionally go 2 days without charging. WTF did you do to your phone? Are you using some piece of shit Chinese knock off charger fucking up your battery with Adaptive Charging?

    Smartphones

    It's one model phone of many. This issue seems related to the Note 7 only, and more specifically affecting models with 1 of their 2 battery suppliers. I am perfectly happy with my Galaxy S7, which is unaffected. I think Samsung will get by just fine. BTW @Agraza .. done with Storm Haven emu?

    Stormhaven - Kate's Hoof

    Should be a solid box. You have the typical Tank, Heal/Slow, and DPS. Ranged DPS is a must on some fights. Lots of people are boxing here though. You would find life a hell of a lot easier if you started tinkering with MQ. It's such a massive quality of life improvement.

    Computer Issues

    Yea, from what you describe, it is going to be tough to pin point exactly what the issue is without having spares to swap out. You say your screens black out, but you can still hear music and whatnot in the background? Do you have a spare graphics card to swap out and test? I'd check out (in...

    Stormhaven - Kate's Hoof

    End game is Tier based "raids" and there are a lot of them. This wiki lays it out pretty clearly: Progression Guide: Raid Tiers - StormWiki 6-12 characters required. Some people box their own crews, others group with fellow players boxing fewer characters. There's so much custom content on...

    It's both. It is completely unusable and broken currently. EVGA does not RMA for APO (military) addresses, so it has to go back through Amazon anyway. As soon as the page popped up for a $670 refund, I thought twice about the purchase and don't really think it's worth that much over my 780 Ti...
