    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    I got theirs, Amazon.com: Ubiquiti Unifi Security Gateway (USG): Computers & Accessories Not gonna lie, was supper happy to see green all the way across the dashboard in management. Could have gotten something else, more ports, etc. But really wanted to play with the full stack of their...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Yeah, online demo here - UniFi The key just runs the controller, provides remote access. Otherwise the controller has to run on a PC to allow you to configure and manage things. Doesn't have to be running all the time but then it doesn't gather data (as I understand it) Key - Ubiquiti...

    For as poorly as that's been received and how big the updates to it have been, it's on sale way too infrequently. That's the lowest it ever drops to.

    In 8th grade I was on a science field trip to Florida. We visited KSC as they scrubbed a launch :( Taking my kids to see every space shuttle is a bucket list item though.

    Just installed a bunch of Ubiquiti stuff at home, 2 APs and a Gateway. Great stuff so far. Got a key for remote management because reasons. Lots of data about what's going on w/ my network.

    I fixed the general connectivity issues by unplugging the set for a few minutes. Still having a lot of choppiness w/ streaming though that's frustrating. Other devices connected to the same AP (currently moving over to some UniFi stuff, 2 APs up, Gateway will be here Tuesday) stream just fine...

    Believe the expected plan is Deadpool 2 introduces Cable, then Deadpool 3 introduces/segues into X-Force. There's a New Mutants movie starting production and there's a push to do a Dark Phoenix X-Men movie but not sure if that's really going anywhere. There's an X-Men TV series pilot that's...

    Ghost Recon at 2560x1080 I'm only running on very high to keep it closer to 50-60 fps, is really the only game recently that made me wish I had more power, tbh. I'm sure it'd let me do more supersampling w/ the Vive too. I know I could absolutely be fine w/ it for a while, more of a nice to have.

    The more I read the more it seems my i5-4690k (stock) is fine for another gen or two of processors (and if anything, overclock it) and if I feel the need to splurge on something it's moving up to a 1080 Ti from my 980 Ti. Agree/disagree?

    It's not streaming, it's basically a temporary license for 100+ titles to download and play. Everything in the current test catalog has been on GWG at some point some Gears of War titles. If you want to keep it permanently the subscription gives you an extra discount on buying it.

    I own literally all of the titles in the preview. Only a couple dozen there now, but all have been Games with Gold titles + Gears of War. Wouldn't sub as-is but do like the setup. It's a way to monetize people who don't even use Gold very often by giving them access to the bulk of the games...
