    Depends. If you've got enough airflow for it to be pointless, you probably don't need the AC unit. Other option, for those with basements, is to move the rig there. Bonus points if you move the rig but keep the monitor and keyboard upstairs.

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Yeah, I don't trust that they won't tip the scales to get people to BUY BUY BUY. It'll be obvious if those reviews start to differ from other places like Steam. Especially if there are statistically significant differences for certain publishers.

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    I kind of like that policy. I don't know how common it is but fake reviews and review bombs are a nuisance to casual consumers looking for trustworthy ratings.

    Hey I remember when this happened Turns out when you elevate gender above ability you should avoid even playing grounds.

    3 failed starts on Space Exploration + Krastorio 2 on Deathworld settings. This is miserable. I love it. This is like when I first started playign Starcraft as a kid, beat the singleplayer campaign, tried multiplayer and got overrun in zerglings when I built my first vulture.

    Diablo Immortal

    I'm a big fan of gamified indentured servitude. I hope Blizzard also wins a court case to garnish wages from dumbfucks who not only blow $$$ on DI but then change their mind and get a refund.

    Just installed basically everything in Space Exploration's Recommended Mods and Krastorio 2 and started a new game.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    The least amount of work is to do nothing to stop the game from being modable. Gamers will find ways to "hack in" and mod it in really basic but useful ways. The most amoutn of work to do is to make it openly modable like say, Elder Scrolls games. Blizzard will almost certainly expend effort...

    I just got off the phone with Microsoft, here's how the sound in that vid went: Boss: Hey, we need to get a diablo IV vid out to throw smoke over hte immortal clusterfuck those assholes at Mobile Devices shat out. Can we get some gameplay footage with some damn sound? Sound manager: Uhh, that's...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    You really can't draw any conclusions from details like that in pre-alpha footage. I'd say that Blizzard should hold off on exposing that footage until the game has been improved but really they need all the public correction they can get. Diablo3's art style was totally redone after their...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Preordering is a perfectly fine way to express trust / gratitude to a company or to demonstrate there is a market for a particular type of game. I don't care if I blew $40 preordering Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG) , I want more wh40k RPGs and they've earned my trust. You've gotta be a...

    OK I'm done with my first playthrough. Maybe one hour of whack-a-mole after officially beating the game. I think I ended it at 50 hours of playtime. https://factoriobox.1au.us/map/view/224952dae257cfb09b605c0ae1f7ff74c4cc50d6a4bab48a8fd074f99c93a827/ I don't think I'd do anything majorly...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I'm still hodling the 1 BTC I bought ages ago for $500 or so. Have been saying for years that I'll sell when it hits $1 or $1m. And by "sell" I mean try to sell and fail because I fucked up ownership of my bitcoin or Coinbase gets blown up or something.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    With 50 unlocking soon I have to imagine everyone is kinda looking past most of the gear and don't mind slumming it with gloomingdeep gear. Obviously critical focus items, weapons or special ability items (ex: Vicc's monk epic and fungi tunic) will have lasting value but most other stuff you...

    Diablo Immortal

    I can't tell where the 24 million USD figure came from, but unless it's a legally binding shareholder disclosure to MS I don't really believe it. I imagine that profit wise 24 million would be a massive success since it's a reskinned game, but the downstream impacts on the Diablo brand and...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    cool. I'm more curious to see what people's gear comprise of than raw stats. I don't know the state of Magelo's EQ gear sniffer these days but it's gotta be a hassle to keep a magelo profile up to date on Vaniki.

    How representative would you say these magelo profiles are of people on Vaniki? https://eq.magelo.com/profile/4128941 https://eq.magelo.com/profile/4128575 I just searched for Bind Rush and these are the only two with profiles updated in the last week.

    Would watch a video of a necro powerleveling with this thing. With an enchanter on hand for runes / stun / magic resist debuff you could be a level 1 monster.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Totally agree, but I have a GINA trigger set up for this. A nice annoying "Tribute" bar next to my buffs when I pop tribute that gets removed when I drop tribute. I don't think I've fucked up my tribute since adding it a few expansions ago.

    If you have any questions just look it up at EverQuest Tribute System. Once you combine that with the SPA list at SPA list - Fanra's EverQuest Wiki and look up how individual stacking rules work for a given SPA, you'll have a clear answer.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Some things stack, some don't. Which ones? It depends. Spell / worn haste doesn't stack with item focus effects. Eyes of the Hunter (+accuracy) does stack with everything and is a substantial buff from some limited testing I did.
