    Bicycling

    Appreciate the info. I am genuinely curious as to why a padded seat is any different than padding in the shorts? I've still got the original seat that came with the bike, but it just seems counterintuitive that less padding = more comfort. Especially when most cycling shorts have padding...

    Bicycling

    Been doing about 20k on my mountainbike (mostly flat area). I know I could do another 20k lap, but my ass is killing me after the first ride. I have purchased a cushy seat, but it's not cutting it. I have never bought into cycling clothes at all but am considering those padded shorts. Any advice?

    Weight Loss Thread

    As pointed out, you need to first figure out EXACTLY what you are eating. Use a site / app like My Fitness Pal to calculate your intake. Try and be as precice as possible. My first couple weeks on the site, I just logged what I actually ate (pre-diet). I was making some food choices that were...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    Got to 17 over the last couple days. Holy crap is the xp slow! Gnoll Fang and Bandit Sashes made things easier, for sure. Any advice where to head now? Started screwing around in Najena yesterday, but it was a ghost town. Only myself and a Mage were (unsuccessfully) trying to duo.

    So, is there a forum guild around this server? Just looking for some guild chat to BS.

    Anyone have a Breath of Harmony laying around they would lend me for leveling up? Can't imagine they are too expensive as a bard only weapon.

    Why all the Emulated EQ servers if EQ is free to play?

    JFC.. this. Elidroth I really applaud you taking some interest in what is wrong with the current state of game, but it is staggering that these basic fundamentals are not understood.

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I haven't played current content in a couple years, but am guessing loot might be another reason? Mercs wont roll on stuff players actually want.

    Why all the Emulated EQ servers if EQ is free to play?

    First, I will say that my time spent on multiple Emu servers over the years has had ZERO to do with cost of EQLive sub. Regardless what game people play, they will pay for quality content. It's a bit shocking honestly that you alluded to the cost having any bearing whatsoever. It just just...

    The Fast Food Thread

    Can't search for YouTube videos here at work, but Masterchef Australia had an episode with Maple Glazed Bacon Hotdogs. It was absolutely drool worthy.

    CCNA this year

    There is a hell of lot more Sim based questioning mixed with the old school multiple choice. The biggest factor is always time management. You can get caught up in the Sim work and run out of time to complete the exam. Like others have said, CCNA is just another bullet to get you on the top...

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    PS3 streaming

    Most will struggle at 1080p, especially if you get into HD-MA (Master Audio) formats. Using Fast Forward is also a huge pain in the ass. It's just a mess of buffering.

    Desktop Computers

    I second this. A single 780Ti will be absolutely fine for 1080p. Plus you should also consider an 840 Evo Pro vs the regular Evo line of SSD. Intel will be releasing their new Haswell refresh CPUs on May 11th. I would wait for those to hit the street. The new chips usually come out at the...

    PS3 streaming

    I will say it now, if you are going to start streaming you will want a wired connection. WiFi is marginal for streaming non-HD content but if you want to start streaming BluRay quality rips, forget WiFi altogether.

    CCNA this year

    Here is a great wealth of information: CCNA / CCENT Forums One key thing to look out for is that Cisco changed their CCENT and CCNA exams less than a year ago. Make sure you are purchasing the latest and greatest test materials. The new exams are: 100-101 ICND1 (CCENT) + 200-101 ICND2...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Why is Salim getting all of this praise as a Dev now? Wasn't he universally hated by both Vanguard and the EQ2 communities? His Vanguard fuckups were legendary and in EQ2 DoV he was behind the itemization debacle that just fucked the whole game into boring cut / paste itemization. I can...

    Honestly, I hope Brad did. Simply for the fact that the stupid "fallen god, rise to power" nonsense was fucking dumb to begin with. Scrap the entire thing and go with the traditional scrub nobody beginnings and slowly fight your way to victory.

    How do you archive your digital photo library?

    When I configured my account, it had options to expand your storage for free. (Stupid things like share a FB advertizement for Dropbox one time only, etc) This boosted my account to something like 50-60GB of storage.

    Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey

    Sunday's episode was probably the most boring yet. It really didnt cover much of anything that was unknown to me. Hell, after the episode, my friend's 14 year old kid even commented how all of that was covered in science class when she was younger. Pretty fundamental basics. Loved the...

    Survivor

    Yea, I liked 2 as well (Australia). The Colby fuck up was legendary, plus watching Jerri go into full psycho stalker mode over Colby was entertaining. Aside from that, it was one of the seasons where the tribes had it the roughest. Between Mike falling into the fire and the entire camp (and...

    How do you archive your digital photo library?

    Love my Dropbox! It's one of those things I configured on my Samsung Galaxy S4 when I bought it a year ago and had completely forgotten about. Typical "set it and forget it" technology. A couple weeks back I was on an overnight camping trip at the beach, got a bit too wasted to realize I still...
