If you want something that looks a bit better than masking tape, I might recommend buying a roll of gaffers tape. It's a matte low residue cloth-like tape. If I'm remembering right, it was developed to be a low residue replacement for duct tape being used in TV & movie stage/audio productions...

Patch notes just went up on Discord. Bit disappointed in no new ore to go hunt, so kinda out of tradeskills to level up without spending days grinding shit to actually level up. Supposedly there is corroded mithril chain/plate dropping for people over level 50 and though about trying to find...

Yarp, it similar to the PvP griefer discussion that was had some pages back. Degenerate autists want to force everyone into degenerate autist gameplay so they can feel some sense of superiority. Always seen the degenerate PvP players as the epitome of that mindset. While I didn't raid in EQ due...

The choice is obvious, catch a bigger shark to farm content... if you survive:

It's amazing how ugly some new interiors are getting; that dash is atrocious, in multiple ways. Not sure how I feel about the center console, as it looks like most of the buttons at least have some tactile feel to them? Small aside (since I really like HUDs in vehicles): that's just an...

I like playing these free betas to see various games I'm not going to play. I put in as many hours as I can to get my fill of the game, then once it goes live, never look back. Done this with many games, from Shadowbane to New World. As for why I wouldn't pay to play this, it's pretty simple...

Mitsubishi has put a rubbernecking nanny in it's cars: (dude has a mostly American accent, but driving in Australia)

Throwing out an alternative: You can build your own high end quality bookshelf speakers for around half the price of an equal quality store bought (or at least you could, when I did ~8 years ago). Then you get a small two channel amp for them. I built these for around $200, but the same guy has...

The Alpha is closed? I thought it was the same build as the public test servers and they have been running multi day tests on them rather often.

They already stated on the FAQ (or some place on the website/Disco) that there will be at least 3 servers at the start of EA: 1 multi-box, 1 single-box, and 1 PvP.

That's the appeal of the no-box server(s). It will take a full raid of sweaty autists to cock block you instead of just 3 or 4 super sweaties. THJ (and probably numerous other EMUs) had an auto multi-box detector, so I'm sure MnM will probably have something similar as the first line of defense.

According to Wiki, the 1986 pass was in one of the worst possible positions for viewing (opposite side of the sun) and only got to an apparent magnitude of 2.1. Whereas, if any of us make it to the 2061 viewing, it will be much closer, on the same side of the sun as the earth will be on, getting...

12 boxing? If you get into the alpha/beta do you get to make multiple accounts or are people stalking the give-aways and gobbling them all up? I would at least think about trying to get a alpha/beta key if I could two box (any more than that seems annoying), but not going to try to take two...

If you actually want a reclining desk, there are a plethora of them to take ideas from (with pro premades with a big money cost (Ergoquest) to DYI). I generally fart around with GIS to get ideas (example: HERE). No idea how they actually secure the keyboard or keep the mouse from running away on...

I don't recline in mine. I don't even like the foot rest up because it locks the chair and tilts it back too far. So I use a rolling ottoman instead. While sitting up, using the keyboard for gaming is easy enough with it sitting on the left arm of the chair and I made a custom leather mouse...

That should only happen when they are the only new poster since you last checked the thread. Unrelated random:

The front half of the huge gully in front of that tower was/is an phenomenal iron farming spot for one person and if two people cut it in half (front and "back/middle") it was even better. Only problem is that it didn't have salt in the node loot pool, so you couldn't make flux for weapons if...

Probably wont see anything like Hale-Bopp again in our lifetime. I don't think Halley's gets as bright as that comet got. Additionally, if you are stuck in a big city, you are pretty much fucked for looking at many/most celestial objects. Big Bend National Park is the closest "zero" light...

Corroded into tarnished is still in game and super easy, as long as you get the armor to drop, it's all you really need (scrap extra into parts, then combine with a piece to make tarnished). It may be the case that drops themselves are isolated to various mob groups, where some mob areas will...

I wouldn't trust some shitty casters from Lowes/HD either, it would need to be some good ones from McMaster Carr. I've looked at using a recliner at a desk too, but building a stable platform with proper spaced casters to set the chair on seemed rather difficult. Best case would be to wield up...

Yeah, people can at least look around and see if it's something they want to jump into once EA hits in Q1 2026 (no wipes after that point). It doesn't take that long to get to enough levels for a full exploration kit on the shaman (level 8 = Invis, Invis undead, and run speed). Then you can...

So you don't understand the appeal of action RPG games like Diablo? That's what THJ turned EQ into. I played "hard mode" vanilla EQ up until LDON and have no desire to replay that shit over again. Most of that magic can only be experienced once. Same reason I have no desire to replay WoW...

Xenonauts is a good X-com clone, if people are looing for something else to play. Xenonauts 2 has been in EA for a few years too, but I generally don't play EAs. 80% off on GoG: https://www.gog.com/en/game/xenonauts

EA with permeant progression saved (no character wipes) is targeted for Q1 2026. At least 3 servers planed: no-box, multi-box allowed, and PvP. Zones are huge. I wouldn't be surprised if they already have as many square foot as EQ had on release, in outdoor zones. Inside/dungeons might be a...

Actually, there is a way to cheese JC still, if you just want to skill it up: make wires. AFAIK you can make any recipe in the game, even if it's not yet on the list because you have 0% chance to succeed. So you make copper wire until its green, then move to bronze, then iron, steel, and finally...

Oh, didn't even look at silver since it burred in the list of recipes; then I would guess that they don't have the planned changes implemented for the gold/plat. That does make it even worse. If the rare ores didn't need powder/dust then there would at least a path w/o magic items still...

The silver/gold/plat recipes in the chanting tomb don't require powder/dust to enchant the bars, just the proper skill level with the inherent fail chance. Whereas as the other ores require dust from each tier with Mithril needing Planar Powder. So no ones probably going to making/selling...

People were "complaining" that JC was too easy and needed something more to tie it down. Which is kinda was, if stats mean anything, since you could max JC at level 1, right after you farm enough copper to buy a mining pick (w/o invis spells, coal/plat and mithril would take forever to farm...

Yeah, I assume it's still work in progress. The rare spawn ores (Silver/Gold/Plat) don't require any additional mats, but that doesn't help tier 1 JC with copper. Haven't messed with enchanting yet, so dunno how much dust you actually get off 1 magic item and how many magic items you get if you...

Queen Marie-Amelie was the wife of Louis Philippe I who was a Bourbon, which is the same line as the kings that ruled before the French revolution of 1789. The Bourbon line was restored to power after the fall of the Bonaparte's (Bourbon restoration). Louis Philippe I was the last King of France...

Lulz, according to Azmon here, the personal bodyguard of that chick that got molested by the simp at Twitchcon got banned from Twitchcon for protecting his client from the simp molester.

Should be able to find something here: Music / Podcasts / Radio If you know what you are looking for you could just use a program to download directly from Spotify or Deezer. Deezer had high quality FLACs for a sub, dunno if Spotify is actually lossless or not.

...or fuck twitch and their far left Hassan fanboi staff and watch The Roach King (Asmon) on YouTube instead.

Wiki says yes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_(media_company)

After looking up the director/writer, it probably has more of a chance of swinging the other way (over the top religious/patriotic). He has done of bunch of religious based TV/Film and it looks like he has his own production(?) company to get stuff made his way. I just want movies to be as...

Both tailoring and leatherworking now make bags, but I just used 10+ mules instead. At least until the last tests, when I had a little gold to buy bags... then ended up leveling up tailoring through the first tier that same day, so could have made some of them myself. There is a gnome outside...

I did the ol ground drop once, durring the first test, then just made a second account as a mule account... to start. Then I thought, why shouldn't I level a shaman for SoW and heals to duo with. Which lead to "well that works fairly well, why shouldn't I level a mage and druid duel box to have...

Checking on the observed magnitude has been kinda interesting, even though I don't have the ability to really peer though the light pollution. Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) has been consistently brighter than predicted, flirting with being visible to the naked eye (under 6.5 magnitude), depending on...
