    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Wired desktop doing mundane things like playing a Youtube video seems to increase latency to near-unusable levels on wifi (wife lags in WoW, living room dvr unable to see/stream from bedroom). Signs a router is going bad or am i looking for an excuse to buy something new? Edit: snagged a...

    Yeah, wish the rest of the series was like 8. Apparently in the collected edition some pages from 8 will be reincorporated into 7. Ending has not yet been spoiled. We'll see if anyone cares when it hits.

    The idea of going down that path is a painful prospect to me, as my biggest goal is continuity in his education. I was fortunate enough to go to 1 elementary school, the closest jr. high and the nearest high school before some school zone restructuring led me to go elsewhere (ended up at a...

    They make it look like angel sheds blades as he flies or something. And probably glitter too.

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    I'm in this boat too. Maybe if I saw this before the Batman v Superman and Civil War trailers, this just feels like the third wheel of comic-movies. Part of it is I'm a comic reader and Marvel has moved so far from where these movies are at. Mission accomplished I suppose, even with these...

    I'm looking forward to the final two underwhelming issues. What a shitty event this turned into. With how it's structured I'm not even sure they can put the core series in a collected trade by itself, it doesn't make any sense. Even with the spinoffs some things don't seem to add up. It's...

    My daughter did something similar, pediatrician said that if she can roll over and lift her head she's not worried. Made me feel a little better, but the pediatrician isn't the one staring at the video baby monitor for signs of breathing.

    Rainbow Six Siege

    PvE is fun unless the host leaves which disconnects everyone. Hoping price drops a bit over the next month, would make a hell of a LAN game scratching the SWAT 4 itch some of us have.

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    I'm down to the last couple of episodes and enjoying it overall, only thing that jumps out at me randomly is the whole 'and then someone grabs a blunt object and knocks the other person out' thing that seems to be the resolution for a number of scenes.

    NFL 2015-2016 Season Thread

    Lions just tried to do too much the last play. They had defenders at medium range trying to protect from lateral plays and stuff on the hail mary, even had some in press coverage on the snap. Then 6 defenders behind Rodgers in the end zone, none in front. Penalty covered for some disastrous...

    Drones and Autonomous Aerospace

    I don't see 7-11 delivering me a slurpee via drone in my lifetime (though, maybe if I had a supported drone and sent it to 7-11 first...), but wouldn't be surprised if Drones were taking off from the roof of Walmarts all over the country a decade or more from now.

    SteamOS - SteamWare

    Yeah, the boxes are relatively DOA. The year delay in the OS hung their hardware partners out to dry too. Link and controller are solid, and interested in where things go w/ the controller. Could in theory end up ordering designs from other people, or internals for it myself and 3d print a new...

    SteamOS - SteamWare

    I've been using the Steam controller exclusively for the past month or so, only Fallout made me go back to keyboard and that's because I was too lazy to mess with customizing the sensitivity of the right pad and there's a shitton of stuff to pick up and was just impatient. I am sure with a...

    Drones and Autonomous Aerospace

    I expect this will result in a significant cost savings vs shipping costs for eligible orders with a nominal fee. Collision detection, landing on a marker set by the customer, etc will mitigate most of the complaints in this thread (theft and damage, mostly).

    Your games of the year!

    Rocket League for me. Most of the other contenders I haven't had the time to really dig into. I'll have to try it. I never got through the original story in SC2 in part because it feels claustrophobic after so much time with games like Supreme Commander, if that makes any sense.

    Board Games

    Not many in my group like the Descent style games. We're really big into co-op stuff, and stuff like Descent would probably be more up our alley if the bad guys were deck-driven or something instead of player-controlled, if that makes any sense.
