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

    Wish that list had the game consoles on it. We're using the Xbox One for all of our apps (and for an OTA tuner w/ DVR buffer - full DVR functionality coming later) but recent reductions in available non-gaming overhead are painfully obvious as the Kinect struggles and apps have occasional...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Wasn't made in Wakanda, so perhaps that's just a helpful imperfection. Or it's really adamantium/vibranium alloy or something. Expecting the airport fight to end the 2nd act, with recovery and focus on taking down Ross / Zemo / Crossbones / etc. for the remainder.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Embeddable one soon I'm sure, but !!! Captain America on Twitter: Edit: Lame that a big reveal of the trailer is the preview image, lol, but I guess there's no getting away from that news now that it's all over. Edit again: hah, they changed it.

    Anyone looked at / have any thoughts on the ATMOS soundbars? I know, those 2 words should not go together, but damn.

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    NFL strips Chiefs of 2016 third-round pick, 2017 sixth-round pick for tampering with Jeremy Maclin while he was an Eagle. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was individually fined $75,000 and General Manager John Dorsey was fined $25,000, and the Chiefs as an organization were fined $250,000...

    so just $3m more per year than the reported Denver offer of 3yr/$45m. Great pickup.

    Workflow Automation / Process Management software

    Yeah, I'd recommend JIRA for anything that needs a workflow, for the most part. Sales and whatnot there are probably better fits.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yeah I'm 14 and haven't touched any hard difficulty stuff, just pugged normal (and still had a few wipes here and there are teams have been mostly a couple levels under the recommended). Hope at some point we can just queue for matchmaking for a group of missions, or has someone seen that...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Got in a little bit this morning, happy to see different missions starting to pop up, some traditional 'go kill this guy' as well as one to attack an enemy stronghold. Also ran into what I assume were some rare spawns, they were named and were yellow. One was wandering the street with a crew...

    Workflow Automation / Process Management software

    I've been a JIRA / Confluence admin for the last several years. Big fan, obviously. If it fits what you are looking to accomplish they've got some good docs and you can spin up a cloud version for evaluation in a few minutes.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Played 12 of the last 24 hours, im level 14 or so w/ my wings all at 50-60%, a little tired of running around. Fun game, but done with the initial binge for sure. Something to chip away at a few hours a night along w/ whatever else I'm playing.

    They had a hiccup when all the digital copies came online but I was able to play for an hour or so after. Level 5 on PC, looking forward to playing more.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    And I get that, but Thunderfury has already been whored out a few times for transmog/temp effects. I'd probably actually finish farming a Val'anyr if I could turn around and finish leveling a toon w/ it, etc. Largely irrelevant otherwise unless they ever allowed us to slot past legendary...

    Has there been any indication that it will be better quality or can the console not do better than what we have on Vita / PSTV?

    Actually almost spent money on this last night, lol. I really liked some of the concepts and it felt like a more accessible version of the multiplayer in the latest Dragon Age.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    "The Division blows Destiny out of the water" was actually a headline about their beta numbers I believe. It's just out of context.

    I thought that's what incursions were but looks like they're just another name for a mission for your to queue up for / form a party for.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yeah, I wonder if Incursions are essentially public quests. Use the extraction mechanic in PvE, put it on the map, spawn bad guys, hand out loot.

    I have gaming ADD for sure, I expect The Division to be a game I fire up from time to time and keep tinkering with though.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yeah, I expect large scale stuff will be confined to ad hoc events like the incursions, if that. no 'raids' to work through.

    They have 3 months of media to feed us, but have we seen humanoids in this game yet? Will we even see other players if we come across where they are at (Steam says Single Player even though we're all in the same universe). Wondering how trading and crafting works, just playing w/ dialog boxes...

    I thought Battleborn was kinda fun, did the PvE co-op mission a few times with different characters. Wasn't expecting it to be a $60 game though, was expecting a F2P / buy characters type approach.

    No review copies and no embargo on reviews. Ubisoft isn't going to make empty servers available early for reviewers, wants them to review the launched game.

    Yeah, it took some time but I used that to farm a dinosaur mount, was awesome just took some time since I was just camping one spot like many others. I was working on the purple phoenix mount but just stopped logging in a month or two ago and then cancelled for a bit. I'd maintain a sub if I...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    There any hint of replayability in missions/events? Using Diablo as an example, and it's rifts? Queue up for a tileset + some random smatterings of bad guys/triggered events, etc.? That's the kind of thing I'd want in this game, or are we more along the WoW line of 'here are your missions...

    All depends on execution, won't completely dismiss the idea. Doesn't the universal platform mitigate some of the development concerns? I posted this a few weeks ago on another forum: I wish these consoles were expandable for the purposes of things like DVR, Live TV, etc. The core box able...

    So a Vita accessory with a $45 markup? You sure there isn't a Sony logo on it? Cases like that and the general position of the Vita and the lack of a less expensive streaming-focused device seems like such a missed opportunity this gen. Loosely related, looks like Sony stopped...

    I'm wondering how DX12 will change the market when it comes to dual cards, would think they'd be less common if many enthusiasts just upgraded one of their cards at a time, keeping their #2 in the case with it. DirectX 12 Multi-GPU Technology Tested: GeForce and Radeon Paired Together - TechSpot
