    I'll admit that I'm a lazy bastard, I don't like dealing with shellfish. I don't want to have to work that hard for a tiny piece of meat and then have to do it a few dozen times more. I love the stuff, but I'll almost always order a dish that has lobster, crab, shrimp, or crawfish in the dish...

    I would also assume a lot of it would have to do with your screen resolution vs viewing distance in regards to if you can even make out individual pixels or not. I game on a 27" 1440p monitor and I can't see individual pixels from the 18-24 inches away that I sit, so I guess the blur would have...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Having to actually put any kind of a disk into a device is so last decade. I feel dirty that the 1 console game I buy per year still has to be via disk (damn you Dark Souls and GTA5, get your shit together and launch for PC simultaneously so I can buy you on Steam) I think the only...

    I have absolutely no frame of reference as to what "pixels per second" is measuring, or how that relates to frames per second or gaming in general. Can you explain that? Because I've never, ever seen anything, in any game, look that bad on even a cheap low-end monitor.

    750Ti video card is what you want. It's only abut $20 more, and quite a bit more powerful Alternately, those Radeon 265s are only supposed to be an MSRP of $150, so if you can find one at that price, jump on that. AMD stock & pricing is wildly inconsistent though, it make take a lot of...

    And the Big 12 is what outside of kansas? And the Big 10 is what outside of Michigan State(and occasionally Indiana)? Most conferences have 1 or 2 dominant teams, and then a whole bunch of other teams that can make a nice run to a sweet 16 or maybe even an elite 8 once in a while, and then...

    While it baffles me how much disrespect the SEC gets in basketball, almost even more ridiculous is the amount of love that the Big 12 and Big 10 get in Basketball. Let's look at some numbers: National Championships in the last 10 years: SEC - 3 ACC - 3 Big East - 3 Big 12 - 1 Big 10 - 0...

    Pretty much. Greg McDermott is a career .500 coach who just happened to have a damn good All-american Calibur son that decided to play for him for 4 years. He's boned now that Doug is graduating and going to the NBA. I don't think we'll see Creighton in the tournament too often in the next...

    Thought you were implying that once Kentucky lost to go along with Carolina, your interest in the tournament is over, implying those were the two teams you follow.

    I have a Qnix 1440p IPS panel with an 8ms response time. Everything looks great, I haven't seen any motion blur. Although, I'm also not a professional FPSer or anything of that sort.

    Assassin's Creed: Unity

    While I loved AC4 and the pirate ships, any AC that has had fireams is just a total cheesefest for 1 on 1 combat. Draw gun, fire, win. I'd love to see a game set before firearms, with more in-depth combat. French revolution won't help that

    Yeah, while most video cards are going to perform 99% the same regardless of which "modern" processor you have, that A4 wouldn't be in that category, it's going to bottleneck you pretty bad. Time to start over with a new build if you want to come close to playing new games on high settings.

    Damn, I felt like I didnt pick enough upsets in my bracket, but I had St Joes, BYU, and NC State winning, along with Harvard, Dayton, & North Dakota. Guess I should have scaled back the Day 1 upsets. My upsets for today are Providence over Carolina, Tennessee over Umass, Tulsa over UCLA, and...

    My wifes c-section wasn't quite high-level emergency, but it wasn't really planned either. Went to the hospital on a Friday for pre-eclampsia, put on blood pressure medication, the first couple days admitted doctors are laying out plans for her to stay in the hospital all the way until term...

    I specifically don't pick my team(when we're in it) in money pools, because I figure at least I get some satisfaction out of the result regardless. If my team keeps winning I don't give a crap about the money, I'm just happy, and if my team loses and goes out early, I at least am still in the...

    C-section is a little freaky too though, but at least it's planned and controlled. Very little surprise or waiting. But looking down and seeing a massive hole sliced in your wife with insides and crap just sitting there, exposed, is more than slightly unsettling

    I don't want to get into a massive argument here, but I actually owned both phones. I had the Galaxy S4 from April '13 to Sept '13 when I broke it, so about 6 months, and I've now had the Note 3 since last October, so about 6-7 months. Battery life is better on the Note 3, but not drastically...

    S4 vs Note 3 = same version of Android, same camera, same screen resolution(the Note ending up being less PPI since it's larger), etc. The Note has a marginally more powerful processor, but I honestly couldn't tell much performance difference in everyday use having used both for several months...

    I guess what I meant to say, is that I don't believe the HDMI port from the video card, and the motherboard HDMI port will ever both work simultenously. Sure you can use the video card + integrated GPU simultaneously, but I don't believe you'll get an HDMI feed from both. Like when you have...
