    The Elder Scrolls Online

    That's what I'm playing. But healing isn't very exciting. Slap down the AoE healing circle and mash the big heal if someone takes a lot of damage. Rinse and repeat. Are all abilities instant cast? Besides maybe the ultimates? There doesn't seem to be any timing required at all for ability...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Just coming here to rant. So I'm taking my final college course this semester in which I'll finally complete my degree in Computer Science. The course is Discrete Mathematics. I swear to God I'm ready to punch my monitor this shit is so stupid. We have this teacher who is obviously a math...

    Batwoman

    I haven't watched the show, but is it full of typical CW SJW shit? Or is the show just bad?

    Stumptown

    It isn't too bad. Actually, not bad at all. I think that was about the only episode that may be construed as SJW-ish. Good show. Not my favorite but I like the characters.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    This game's art is so strange. Some things look and animate fantastic. Whereas other parts look nearly as amateurish as EQ2. Even though I know the community here hates such things, I do appreciate that there exists a dungeon finder in ESO. At this point in my MMO career I really don't have...

    Kingdom

    Finished season 1. Quite good but the finale shocking reveal revealed a plot hole? Spoilering this because of potential new viewers...

    Kingdom

    Good to know! I just recently picked this back up. One episode left, will watch tonight.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Honestly, I think attempting to go there is folly. Risk of failure way too high. Orbital habitats is the way to go.

    Black Desert

    This is one of the many reasons I dislike ESO...

    Doctor Who

    Stay angry!

    The Magicians

    Honestly, I think the show has run its course and probably should conclude. But would prefer it to wrap up in a meaningful way.
  12. ShakyJake

    Doctor Who

    Has anyone on the production staff acknowledged they fucked up bigly?
  13. ShakyJake

    The Magicians

    With no series conclusion? God dammit, Syfy! Does this shit cable channel have ANYTHING worth watching now?

    Star Trek: Picard

    Has anyone seen that actor since? I don't believe I've seen him, Paris, or Chakotay in anything since Voyager.

    Star Trek: Picard

    It was from a shitty, completely forgettable episode.
  16. ShakyJake

    The Expanse

    I agree, that was a little weird. Perhaps it was handled better in the books.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Dude! It's only for emergencies. o_O

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    I just started playing this with some friends. Non-humanoid stuff -- mounts, dragons, etc., and the environment -- looks fairly decent. But the character models aren't very good at all. Really difficult to get into the game when you can't stand the way your character looks and animates...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    The person doing the review should be reviewing the code for bugs, performance issues, and coding standards. They should not, however, be reviewing it based on how they would have done it.

    Health Problems

    I think I need something like this. I don't know if it's 'brain fog' or what but I rarely feel mentally sharp.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Who is the actress playing the Vulcan? She looks awfully damn familiar.

    Transformers: War for Cybertron

    I wouldn't mind a re-telling of the original Transformers TV show, but targeted towards adults.

    Star Trek: Picard

    I love how random passengers can deactivate the EMH while someone is fucking dying in the sickbay.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yeah, I've tried several variations. Nothing works. I thought i may have missed a common approach used for this stuff. I guess I'll just have to ask for an explicit example from them.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Hah. Fortunately I'm not working that low level. Communication is done via a TCP/IP connection and the protocol is XML-based. Right, that was my interpretation but it ain't having it.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Since some of you work with firmware for embedded systems, maybe you can shed some light on this problem I have. For some background: our company has a data manager that can communicate with a variety of devices from different manufacturers. As one of the developers, I am implementing support...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Yeah, I tried to get him to play GW2 instead since its free, but wouldn't hear of it. He's the type that won't do anything unless its his idea first.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    What is the general consensus here on this game? I have a friend begging me to play it, but every time I watch him play via a stream it looks kinda 'bleh' to me.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Fucking flabbergasted that neither of them have watched The Expanse.

    Star Trek: Picard

    More than 1 would also be correct.

    Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020)

    Yeah, I would almost rather see movies of their secondary characters. I'd love to see a Booster Gold movie.

    Star Trek: Picard

    It's clear the writers don't know shit about astronomy. What's-her-face said, "There are over 3 billion stars in the galaxy". No, there are over 300 billion stars.

    The Outsider

    That's what I figured, but the way it all played out was a bit strange -- they were all out looking for Holly and then poof, she's back at the hotel (or wherever) talking to the gang. I need to re-watch the events at the gas station, but did she do a key switch-a-roo before exiting the vehicle?

    The Expanse

    The series is even more enjoyable when you watch episodes back-to-back.
  35. ShakyJake

    Star Trek: Picard

    That is one hell of a supernova.
  36. ShakyJake

    The Outsider

    So did Holly have the keys or not? Ending scene was confusing.

    Investing General Discussion

    So what's a good sector for one to dump their money in? Not looking for short term gains but not necessarily very long term either. Essentially what I'm doing is, instead of keeping a large sum of money in a bank savings account, I'm placing it in an ETF. So it needs to be something I can...

    The Expanse

    SWEET. So end of year release?

    The Outsider

    Not sure what they can do for there to be an "oh shit" moment. We know that the thing killing these kids is supernatural. So now it's all about how are they going to kill it.
