    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Youre in Michigan, right? if so north living is super cheap. we pay like $1k per year on our property there and its not even homesteaded. Its prob 1/2 that if it is.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    I wonder how much less/more it would cost just to hire a chef to come and cook your shit for you, instead of eating out all the time. Not full time or anything, but I have seen those that just cook shit at their place, or do most of the work and just finish/serve at their place of employment. I...

    Maybe for a low IQ subhuman or some shit. LOL This is your idea of a life? Looks like a fucking prison cell to me.

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Thats a good ass lawyer THJ has. This estoppel argument is solid and genius. Didnt even know there was such a thing. But it makes sense. You cannot just choose to disregard and even actively encourage shit for years, but then all of a sudden do a 180 on something you dont like. Basically...

    You guys ever drink powerade?

    My wife drinks it sometimes. She buys it when its on sale for like 80c a bottle and stocks up. . When at home I drink tea. I brew up a huge pot of the shit and drink it all day with lemon. At work I also drink tea. I would drink coffee but the coffee they have there is fucking swill. But they...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Looks good to me. You can always add an M2 drive later. They are only $150 or so.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I mean you can be an Nvidia purist and spend the $300 extra for the 5070ti for the 5%-10% performance boost in some games. But IMO its not worth. the 9070xt runs great. So far ive had no problems with it. Super stable not one crash yet, runsd super cool, and all my games ive tried run great. Big...

    Got all the pieces and built myself. About $2k. Its what my old one was, about 5-6 yrs old. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZKNV8Q Thats just a list of all my shit. That PSU is not the 2023 model but a newer 2025. I just clicked on the wrong one. If you have a microcenter around they have deals...

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Yeah, I got about 12 more years. I was a fool in my 20s and was silly with my cash, should have put more of it away. I would be well better off and prob retiring right now at 53. But I was a dumb fuck. But ive been pretty good since my 30s when I had the kids. Made me rethink a lot of shit. I...

    Starfinder:afterlight -tactical rpg

    Its too bad how this entire hobby (PnP) got somehow co-opted by fucking blue haired queers and faggots. Like how and when and why did they let them in? It was all about the fat nerds giving other fat nerds shit to imagine in their dull meaningless lives.

    Titan Quest 2

    Checked out like a hour of a 4 hour video dude playing this and it looks pretty fucking generic, at least in the early game. Kind of like a Diablo 4+1 IMO. Nothing new there nothing innovative I saw, at least in the early game. And of course not knowing WTF the end game will be, I mean is it...

    So getting my new PC I thought I would start a new play through. Since I missed all these sub-classes being added and such since the launch days. Man this is just such a good game.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Youre simply wrong and probably a shitty cook, in which case no matter what you do you come up with shitty rice. Yes, washing rice before cooking can make a noticeable difference, primarily in its texture. Washing removes excess starch from the surface of the rice grains, which helps prevent...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Yeah I used to not rinse my rice and the effects were very obvious to when I did finally rinse it. Its not even in the same ballpark, lol. Do it not for the the taste but the finished product is fluffy and not sticking all together like rice mush.

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    They recently got a buff too. new dlc companion uses them. They are an aoe weaon. So if you position your dude correct you can hit multiple enemies. Or enemies and your dudes too, so be careful. They also added a ton of shotties to the game because of the new DLC dude too.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Because I dont want to be at the mercy of others when it comes to playing and progressing in a mmo. I do group stuff when warranted, like dungeons and shit, but I prefer to play at my pace, whenever I want and what class is want so Im not at the mercy of shit like FOTM or just logging on for a...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    My 2c? I think the vanilla WoW is the perfect mix of things if you want that "classic" vibe. You can play for hours and none of that shit is downtime, staring at your spell book, or whatever the fuck, its just fun. Still took tons of hours to level and even more to gear yourself out, but none of...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    My faves are the sniper xeno bitch from act 2, abelard with a shield going into arch militant, and Argenta with heavy bolter going into master tactician. Argenta takes a few to get going but once she does, she is blasting. I dont use too much of Kibellah because my main is the same but better...

    Its funny how this game from decades ago still has meme potential. My kid last night said the same thing. He also said the new crysis for his gen is 2077.

    Well im born in Europe so old school american is not my old school, lol. Soft bread without crumb is like the worst thing you could do to it, unless you have no teeth or some shit, then I understand.

    Love making bread. But hate loving to eat it too. I like the more crusty old school bread. Cant make the shit in the summer though. There is no way im heating up an oven to 500F when its like 90+ outside, lol.

    So yeah, shitty monitor for setting it up, 1080p but its pretty much on ultra running their benchmark in 2077. did try the full Ray Tracing and got about 60 FPS. So Ray Tracing is going to be kept off, lol. Temps dont seem to be spiking any. This case (4x140mm fans) and the AIO doing some...

    Last Epoch

    Still something missing from this game, IMO. I just dont know what it is to point my finger on it. It just feels all sterile, no dopamine hits or not enough of them? Its weird because it is a good game, it just does not hit with me at least. IDK?

    Desktop Computers

    Yeah, might not be best ram, but something I can maybe look into in future. This is a package deal from Microcenter. Proc, RAM, and mo-bo for a great savings of like $150 or so. And last time I asked a few years back, you cannot switch or change the packages they have. So it is what it is. Youre...

    So upon further thought I said fuck it and I might as well update all my other shit and just keep my old PC for some TV PC or some shit. Maybe even give it to my wife if shes nice. So I added some storage, new PSU, and a case.... So here is my list... PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7...
