    So I lucked the hell out and found a 27" Dell Ultra 4K P2715 monitor sitting in a thrift shop. Picked it up for $16. NOW, I need a new video card to push these pixels around. My GTX 950 is choking up in World of Warcraft even at moderate settings. Any recommendations for a video card --...

    Car ?'s

    No, it's definitely rough. I guess something got on the paint that damaged the clear coat. I just have no idea what since the car is not around anything like that.

    Car ?'s

    About every 6 months I'll wax it. Doing a search for clear coat failure I see a few images of a similar pattern as mine:

    Car ?'s

    I waxed it probably 6 months ago. I hand wash the car pretty regularly -- usually once a week.

    Car ?'s

    This car was purchased new 10/16 and no, it's never been repainted (as far as I know...). This is the rear bumper so highly unlikely a rock or debris hit in these spots. And, again, there are no physical scuffs or indentations from an impact. It's like the paint or clearcoat has puckered up...

    Car ?'s

    It doesn't look like impact damage. It's completely smooth except for the little honeycomb pattern. It's very bizarre. I'm going to try using my buffer with a high grit polishing compound to see if it makes a difference.

    Car ?'s

    Can anyone identify what in the hell is going on with my car's paint? The image I attached is from the rear bumper. I know for a fact that these spots were NOT there two weeks ago when I last washed the car. At first I thought it was some kind of gunk on the paint but it appears to be the...

    The Handmaid's Tale

    Also, the Handmaids are worth more than gold so you would think they would be treated as such. Why do anything that would potentially cause them to go suicidal?

    Castle Rock

    "I have this uncle...he was a writer, too. And then, one winter, he just flipped his lid and tried to ax murder his wife and kid at some fancy ski resort." Fucking awesome!

    Batwoman

    I dunno, man, it's pretty fucking close. I see way more dude-on-dude action on TV these days than regular ol' hetero banging. WAY more. Perhaps I am being overly sensitive because it is literally a hot poker to my eyes.

    Batwoman

    This is what drives me insane. Homosexuals, transexuals, etc. represent what? 1% of the population? Yet, like you said, nearly 75% of all the characters are one of these. Tired of this shit and have stopped watching.

    Roman Empire

    You failed to mention the titties.

    Possible Star Trek Next Generation reboot

    You could just torrent it or something. That'll really stick it to them.

    Lost

    What nude scene? This was on ABC during prime time not HBO.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I'm excited of course, but I'm not sure where they can go with this. He's way too old to still be captain and "A day in the life of a Starfleet admiral" doesn't sound too interesting.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Uh, was BFA delayed? I received an email from Amazon this morning stating that the shipping date was pushed to late September.

    Babylon 5

    Season 3 is the high point of the series. I've begged friends to watch B5 and just 'hang in there' because it gets so amazing. They never make it past the first few episodes of season 1. :(

    Castle Rock

    Fist bump of madness. Really loving this series. Classic King weirdness.
  19. ShakyJake

    Babylon 5

    Season 3 definitely.

    Suits

    I still enjoy the show, but like 90% of an episode is people being angry and yelling at each other.

    Babylon 5

    Jeff Bezos plz help.

    Babylon 5

    Yeah and I think all the CGI was rendered in 4:3 aspect so they couldn't even do a widescreen version.

    FYI that's my video upload. ;)

    Watership Down

    So I watched this last night ('78 Watership Down). I agree, I don't see any reason why there needs to be a remake. Especially if they are toning down the violence (and, honestly, it wasn't that violent). I was left wondering, though, if Woundwort was incredibly brave leaping at the dog or...

    Watership Down

    I guess there's no reason not to watch the 1978 version, right?

    Watership Down

    I seem to recall, from my childhood I think, a story about a cow that escaped a slaughterhouse. Anyone familiar with this? Written by the same dude maybe?

    The Expanse

    Awesome finale. But I find it confusing why suddenly powering down everyone's reactors would cause the station to go, "OH my bad, thought you were assholes. Here, let me open up a bunch of Stargates for y'all". It almost seemed like it was a test for humanity and not simply some lost...

    Hmm..only thing I remember is him making a remark about his silver streak in All Good Things.

    Possible Star Trek Next Generation reboot

    I could see Picard as an admiral and hey, Captain Worf? I could definitely see that. You obviously couldn't literally bring back the entire cast as crew of the Enterprise -- they are way too old. Spiner as Data/B9 wouldn't even make sense.

    Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

    Looks like she has toned up quite a bit. Last time I saw her she looked pretty chunky.

    Humans

    Anyone watching this still? Season 3 started a few weeks ago and, imo, has been very good. In fact, I would say this series is better than West World in regards to the whole "androids gain sentience" theme.

    Pruning the Politics thread for massive improvements, An experiment. (long read)

    Not sure if it's been suggested, but would it be possible to ignore users for a particular thread? Sometimes I don't mind seeing their posts elsewhere but, for the Politics thread for instance, I'd rather hide their nonsense from appearing there.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    I know this post is a month old but I just saw the movie this evening and totally agree with you. Totally hated that the Hulk got smacked down pretty effortlessly in the first 5 minutes of the film. That was bullshit. The Hulk I know and love would just get more and more pissed. Check it...

    Westworld

    There have been no titties this season! All we've seen is a dick and not even an impressive one at that.
  37. ShakyJake

    Westworld

    No, I think you've pretty much nailed it and whoever disagrees is an idiot.
  38. ShakyJake

    Westworld

    As I mentioned before, the problem for me is that I don't give a shit about anyone. In fact, at this point I dislike pretty much everyone. Other than Teddy, I don't feel any sort of sympathy for the android's plight. They've all become murderous, sadistic assholes.

    Rectify

    Yeah, it is/was a great show. And Abigail Spencer is super hot.

    The Walking Dead

    At this point, who cares? I say go crazy.
