someone offered me a TV for $350

hardy forge
#

tvs in 2020

#

đŸ€”

timber crag
#

yes

#

tvs in 2020

#

selling my monitors for a tv 🙂

hardy forge
#

i'd say monitors are better than a tv,especially if you have a pc and not a console

#

big tv is better for console

timber crag
#

i have both

#

it doesnt matter whats better though

#

id rather have a nice 4k tv i can do more on

#

than 2 gaming monitors taking up a quarter of my room

spring heath
#

Neat

@spring heath

#

Idk

#

Wings might be cute for my druid

#

She'd find them pretty funny

tough escarp
#

wtf is this lmao

spring heath
#

A mog set?

tough escarp
#

yeah - but borderline pepega

spring heath
#

idek what that means

spring heath
#

Thanks I hate it

tough escarp
#

that's what I meant yeah

heady solstice
#

borderline pepega means borderline stupid wolf

spring heath
#

It's a fun little costume. Don't like it, don't use it

heady solstice
#

factual

tough escarp
#

it's so stupid I want it just for the memes - but it's so stupid I must never use it

#

just

#

pepega

hardy forge
#

was the wendigo pajamas not just for the memes? @tough escarp

tough escarp
#

wendigo was also borderline pepega

#

refresh rate on tvs is usually garbage

hardy forge
#

the wings change colors on the store tmog

neon hinge
#

How do you get the wings btw, I have a 6mo plan

spring heath
#

It should show up for you automatically

neon hinge
#

It doesn't đŸ€”

tough escarp
#

takes a moment

spring heath
#

Yeah just give it a bit

#

It just arrived

fresh osprey
#

it can take up until Oct 30th

neon hinge
#

ah okay

timber crag
#

I'm honestly in love with it lol... its the exact type of outfit I've wanted more of in the game. The wings especially

neon hinge
#

I'm always in favour of meme shit

timber crag
timber crag
#

for more reference why I love them though... they literally go perfectly with this char's name and guild lol

Shoulder name pls 😂

spring heath
#

Bothering to care about other people's choices, uberlul

crystal junco
#

The choice impacts the game we all play and how the development continues

spring heath
#

🙄

hardy forge
#

stronk at it again,annoying wolf

tough escarp
#

yeah - this is bad - they should be more thoughtful

hardy forge
#

poggers

crystal junco
#

I'm always at it

spring heath
#

It's almost like it was planned for Blizzcon but Covid fucked that up

hardy forge
#

i'd like to specify that this is only on the ingame shop because they cancelled blizzcon,otherwise it would have been this year's virtual ticket

#

just like last year was the wendigo pajamas

spring heath
#

How dare they give a different way to obtain a set that was datamined ages ago

tough escarp
#

the problem is the existance itself

crystal junco
tough escarp
#

not how it is obtained

#

they should have never made it to begin with

spring heath
#

K

crystal junco
#

Malding Wolf over valid opinion

hardy forge
#

I mean Idk the community seem to agree
youtube dislikes are not a way to gauge community opinion,given that ever since bfa launch,they've been on a "dislike bandwagon" even on totally inoffensive videos

#

like the cgi trailer

crystal junco
#

Because people were unhappy

#

that bandwagon stopped at SL

tough escarp
#

xD

crystal junco
#

and yet it seems to come back for that kind of release

#

considering Mount vids has been mass disliked

#

since the very first mount

hardy forge
#

that bandwagon stopped at SL
i'd say the forums are eternally salty

#

for anything

#

the forums were even salty during vanilla

#

saying tbc was the worst expansion

hardy forge
#

they've always been salty

crystal junco
#

Yup

#

But not that salty

timber crag
#

just the way I like my pretzels

#

extra salty

crystal junco
#

Same

timber crag
#

Santa's writing down all the people who pointlessly complain about arbitrary things

crystal junco
#

a shame we ain't talkin about Pretzels

#

Oh I'm not judging people for buying it

#

judging blizzard for selling it

tough escarp
#

yep

#

exactly

#

that's the point

timber crag
#

the point is that we should always be talking about Pretzels.

hardy forge
#

@crystal junco looks at profile pic: ||KYRRRIUU-CHAAAAN||

tough escarp
#

it doesn't matter if it's Pretzels, pine apple pizza or Surströmming ... the problem is that people create such abominations

crystal junco
#

@hardy forge pog

#

Dafire being a man of culture

timber crag
#

never had Surströmming

#

Dont hate on surströmming

crystal junco
#

What is Surströmming

timber crag
#

Canned fermented fish

#

Surströmming is a lightly-salted fermented Baltic Sea herring

#

It's delish

#

Like the kippered pickled herring you get in american grocery stores except way better

hardy forge
#

the only smell i know worse than surstromming is the bathroom after my brother ate too many chili tacos

crystal junco
#

Ewh

hardy forge
#

and that's SAYING SOMETHING

timber crag
#

You've never eaten until you've tried HĂĄkarl

heady solstice
tough escarp
#

Hakar sounds like a boss from Zul'gurub

heady solstice
#

well

#

yes

timber crag
#

Rotten fermented Shark

#

smells like ammonia

heady solstice
#

ok

tough escarp
#

yurks

timber crag
#

you've never heard of HĂĄkarl?

#

youtube it and experience its pleasantries

timber crag
#

I guarantee you, once you've either watched it or tried it. Shadowlands Pre-patch will seem like pure 100% magic to you.

tough escarp
#

I encounter quite a number of returners that complain that the game seems unfinished, unpolished and lacking.

#

I keep telling them the game is designed for level 60 game play and that this is normal for prepatch.

teal birch
#

yeah they don't balance the game for lvl 30 bgs

#

or lvl 50 raids

#

it is for the 60 endgame

#

Also how is the new BDO expansion?

tough escarp
#

no clue

#

I dont play anything outside of wow

timber crag
#

Returners are basically a meme tbh

#

I judge the game mostly on how new players react to it

tough escarp
#

new players have constant blasts

timber crag
#

It's lovely to see and eternally refreshing

#

I've seen so much praise for how comfy leveling is compared to other games

spring heath
#

Looks great!

#

Thank you! I might also finish watching campaign 1 of Critical Role this year which would be a great accomplishment XD

spring heath
#

I... started one episode lol

#

I need to catch up on S2

#

Whats up everyone! how is everyone doing! im just getting back into WoW after three years or more (I stopped right after the cataclysm expansion finished and the monk class was introduced.) Im looking for friends and guilds in Area 52 server if anyone knowssss per chance

timber crag
#

Does anyone else get major heartburn when drinking pop late at night?

fresh osprey
#

thats probably acid reflux, not heartburn

#

heartburn comes sometime after eating, and its technically just nasty indigestion

timber crag
#

Acid reflux is def what's happening.

#

I get it all the time and it sucks.

#

TUMS are my bff.

fresh osprey
#

the secret is to not eat or drink anything nasty less than an hour before lying down

#

water and neutral foods if you cant wait

unreal bluff
#

I don't get heartburn, but I also basically stopped drinking carbonated beverages after my 2nd root canal because I don't want a 3rd

I drink soda anyways because it doesn't seem to make a difference to how acidic my GERD makes my stomach

Critical Role (C1)

#

More of a C2 fan myself

I liked C1

#

C2 is prob gonna go on for longer than C1 did

#

C1 had 8 levels of advantage

fair gyro
#

what you mean

neon hinge
#

C1 started with the characters at level 8

#

C2 started from lvl1 and a half

Hello out there, I have a small issue that might benefit someone out there, I got 2 copies of the physical copy collectors of shadowlands and I am looking to try and sell one.

Good luck on that though

#

Do you guys think my computer of a i5 7500, gtx 1070 8gb vram, 16gb ram could run upcoming games such as Assassins Creed Valhalla and cyberpunk 2077?

timber crag
#

yes

mystic garden
#

Do you think it would be high settings or more medium settings?

timber crag
#

probably run better on medium settings

#

granted I'm probably not the best person to ask about this stuff as I really could careless how the game looks.

mystic garden
#

lol I’m sure they will still look great on medium

timber crag
#

so guys

#

i think i found a girl whos into me

#

@hardy forge There is never romantic tension between a healer and a blood death knight

#

I usually have to tell the healer to stop healing me and heal the others while i zerg the boss

@crimson tinsel I just wanted to grab another drink before the dungeon okay

#

Heyo guys! Can u recommend me a healer with fewer buttons to press than druid? I love it but it can be overwhelming for me sometimes.

spring heath
#

All the healers have a higher amount of buttons since they have a damage kit and a healing kit

livid pecan
#

Oh boy

#

Back to dps then

tough escarp
#

xD .. healing is a bit more complex

#

since you gotta heal and DPS at the same time

#

again?

fresh osprey
#

Not the first time they’ve revisited a theme

#

For example, argent tournament and knights of the frozen throne

#

It makes sense

#

Duels seem dumb tho. I dislike that you have to pay for rewards and that it uses your own cards, so it’s essentially going to be netdecks and people who have better card collections who win

#

Unsure if new progression system will actually give more gold tho

#

I like the immediate return of do quest get gold even if it removes long term goals

#

well... they do look right with tails

spring heath
#

There's a fair bit of official art with tails on worgen, tbf

rigid bronze
#

True, just hoping one day they activate the tail bones that are in game

spring heath
#

Honestly tails would help balance them out in proportions

somber dune
#

Anyone know how to get the return of the black prince quest I accidentally abandoned it?

rigid bronze
#

i put the url at the proper time so its right away

#

so my one question is

#

then later in the video the same worgen on the right is shown once more, with a clear tail

#

so is it artists choice? or actually a thing? or only in the twisted version of hearthstone

spring heath
#

Well, hearthstone stuff is technically canon in WoW, story wise

But yes, it seems that most of the time it's artist interpretations and a lot of people will argue endlessly that the distinction of a werewolf is that it doesn't have a tail but Warcraft worgen aren't true werewolves. They're druidically linked, so there's no real reason they should not have tails.

#

So I believe it should at least eventually be an option

rigid bronze
#

That's also an issue I've found, and werewolves going back to their folklore, there's many different types and even versions WITH tails. As it's also folklore, it's probably been altered hundreds of times, so it's difficult to have solid evidence for what is the original or the warped. Either way, I'm not dismissing there are tailless versions too. My point is: would it really hurt giving them tails? Look at how much say night elves got vs worgen. Not including their human choice as that is not usable within combat, iirc it was also an illusion basically, of who they used to be. And you can call me bias cause worgen pfp idm xd

neon hinge
#

i mean

spring heath
#

I mean I fully believe they should get tails and yeah, folklore and the like all vary so greatly

neon hinge
#

they're dogs

#

so yeah

#

give em their tails

@spare musk Gardevoir, Garchomp, Metagross, Weavile, Scizor and Chandelure

#

thoughts on my main six?

#

i never went full competitive but i dabbled

#

i also didnt use "meta" pokemon except Garchomp but i legitimately just like him

spare musk
#

Yeah meta changed so much now but thats a good gen 6 team

deft grove
#

which is funny cus this is my team out of ALL pokemon

#

not just gen 6

#

these are my bois cus new pokemon suck

spare musk
#

Nah some new ones are xool

deft grove
#

the only reason Chandelure is there is because they earned their keep

#

idr what game they were introduced, black/white? i remember i caught one and then he basically soloed the entire game

#

i used them and ONLY them vs the elite four AND the champion and wiped the floor with all of them

deft grove
#

@spare musk also top strat for yellow is catch a mankey
beat brock
use your shitty pikachu and your shitty mankey to get thru the cave and beat Misty
if it hasnt died 9 million times cus it sucks, your Pikachu should be happy enough to get Bulbasaur
get the charmander and put your shitty pikachu away forever cus it sucks and you hate it
Put mankey away forever
Get Squirtle
level all three of them and dont use another pokemon because you dont need them this is the ultimate team
teach Blastoise Ice Beam because if you dont you literally cant beat the game because the dragon fucker will end you *

hi zyabls

patent vine
#

so a lot of blizz devs are in an evacuation zone in irvine atm

#

due to fire

#

Wonder if this will ultimately affect SLands dev progression (Not bashing anything, it's out of their control here)

fresh osprey
#

probably not?

#

hard to say

#

its unlikely to literally burn the city down

#

only 1 structure has actually burned

#

theres just a lot of risk of embers spreading due to high winds

patent vine
#

I mean if they get evacuated though they cannot as easily work from home

fresh osprey
#

i mean - depends on where the employees live

#

they dont all neccesarily live in irvine

#

some live in LA

#

and other areas nearby

patent vine
#

True, i'm just saying that most of the ones commenting on it are blizz devs

yeah, some devs will need to evac to shelters temporarily

#

Bro @neon hinge I saw developers tweeting they're being forcefully evacuated due to the fire.

#

If you don't see the connection there đŸ€·

#

There also appears to be a new fire (not an offshoot of the Silverado Fire called the Green Fire that's north east of there

neon hinge

heh

#

You must not live near wild fires @neon hinge

fresh osprey
#

i do, and it definitely is jumping to conclusions

#

majority of blizz devs dont live where they work

#

a lot of them live in LA or around there

#

and while the smoke sucks, it isnt new

#

so what's the current situation with wildfire near blizzard hq?

tough escarp
#

I guess people are as usually over dramatizing things...

winter wolf
#

Didn't even know there was a wildfire near Blizzard HQ

tough escarp
#

I guess that's the kind of dramatization I mean 😄

undone apex
#

I mean forest fires do tend to happen in forests

severe river
#

wow crazy

fresh osprey
#

those arent "forests"

#

those are dry grassy mountains

#

green =/= forest

#

and the fires are literally on the property line for a lot of houses

#

there IS a risk of people, including blizz employees, losing their houses to this fire

#

also, while no structures have burned yet, 2 firefighters have been gravely injured

mossy fern
#

I wonder if there's anything we can do to help? somewhere to donate or something?

fresh osprey
#

nope

#

let the firefighters do their job

#

vote for politicians who will act on climate change

#

and politicians who will nationalize the power company, because that is apparently what caused this fire

relevant meme

fresh osprey
#

tbf to the milk thing, thats i think 5% of people?

#

the uneducated rate in the US is higher than that

dreamy helm
#

yes

#

330 million US ?

fresh osprey
#

yeah

#

10.2% of the US never got a highschool diploma or GED

#

so, only half of those people think this

dreamy helm
#

4%

fresh osprey
#

thats a super small percent

dreamy helm
#

4% is bigger than 0%

fresh osprey
#

yeah, but i wouldnt be surprised if thats true in other countries as well

dreamy helm
#

mm probably

#

most likely lower

fresh osprey
#

eh

#

according to OECD, more people in the US have a college degree than in almost every country in europe

#

i bet the numbers are actually pretty similar

dreamy helm
#

well theres a reason for more college degrees

hardy forge
#

according to OECD, more people in the US have a college degree than in almost every country in europe
the USA is as big as europe if not bigger

dreamy helm
hardy forge
#

so that statement is fictitious

fresh osprey
#

i phrased that wrong dafire

#

its percent

#

UK is 42%

#

US is 44%

#

Finland is like 43%

#

its by percent of population

dreamy helm
#

Oh I figured immediately you meant per capita / etc.

hardy forge
#

why are all the idiotic events happening almost every day in america tho

#

đŸ€”

dreamy helm
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

fresh osprey
#

because thats what our news focuses on

dreamy helm
#

that is true

fresh osprey
#

shitty stuff is happening ALL OVER THE WORLD

dreamy helm
#

the entire world is a shithole

hardy forge
#

why is there such a unemployment crisis in america even without virus

fresh osprey
#

there isnt?

dreamy helm
#

there is

fresh osprey
#

prior to the virus unemployment was below 3%

dreamy helm
#

thats skewed

fresh osprey
#

thats - very low

#

no - it just doesnt include people not looking for work

#

thats how ALL unemployment statistics work

#

you cant include people not looking for work because they arent unemployed

#

theyre not looking for work

dense trout
#

yeah but how much does it matter what % are underemployed

#

and how you count people who are looking for work

#

like, what's trying hard enough to count

hardy forge
#

look,peach i respect you and i like your dedication to bugfixing,but sometimes you just arent at your best

dreamy helm
#

there was a study I saw that estimated it could be 40-50% if you consider unemployment as looking for a job that pays a living wage

dense trout
#

(i'm not talking about the "try harder" argument, i just mean some poeple are like "yeah i'd like work but i'm not that interested, will look into a few things but not seriously")

fresh osprey
#

well yeah

#

wages in the US suck

#

because our economy is fucked

#

trickle down doesnt work

dreamy helm
#

our economy isnt fucked so much as the people in charge are greedy

fresh osprey
#

but that doesnt mean our unemployment numbers are bullshit

dreamy helm
#

they are definitely inheriently skewed to seem smaller

fresh osprey
#

no

dreamy helm
#

that was the case from the inception of the division

fresh osprey
#

theyre not

#

unemployment numbers are also determined indepently

#

and give the same result

#

prior to the pandemic, US unemployment was below 3-4%

#

that doesnt mean the jobs paid well or had good benefits

#

and that wasnt the question asked

#

theres lot of problems in the US, but pretending data isnt real because it doesnt fit your viewpoint is ignorant af

dense trout
#

but if you're going to compare unemployment statistics, doesn't it need to be asked?

fresh osprey
#

whether the jobs pay the same? no

#

THATS NOT UNEMPLOYMENT

#

thats quality of life/living

#

those are different questions

#

"do you have an income" vs "do you have enough money to survive"

#

those are statistically SIGNIFICANTLY different

#

poverty =/= unemployment

#

they arent the same question

#

trying to make them into the same issue is not just ignorant but ignores a FUCK TON of outside factors

dense trout
#

i know, but perhaps unemployment statistics are used too broadly and DO get used in a way where that distinction matters

fresh osprey
#

sure

#

but again, that wasnt the question asked

#

why is there such a unemployment crisis in america even without virus
@hardy forge

#

this was the question

#

which is legit just wrong

dense trout
#

so i would say not taking into account the connection ignores a ton of other factors too

fresh osprey
#

there wasnt an unemployment crisis

#

there is a wage and quality of living crisis

hardy forge
#

which is legit just wrong
thanks

fresh osprey
#

unemployment being low isnt related to quality of living, its related to greedy corporations having too much power, and the US govt refusing to act on it due to the republican senate killing any and all economic bills put forth by the democratic house of representatives

dense trout
#

are you aware of wage stagnation after the introduction of the intermodal container

#

it doesn't quite counter what you said if handled properly but

hardy forge
#

havent they tried doing that antitrust case against big corporations

#

recently

fresh osprey
#

google is currently being sued

dreamy helm
#

I think a couple are under investigation

fresh osprey
#

but antitrust isnt the crux of the lower and middle class wage gap

#

that is more about intercorporation competition

#

the wage gap is a result of low taxes on the rich and excessively wealthy, limited spending on important, average policies, and a lack of economic injection due to the greed at the top

hardy forge
#

electing a bad president surely hasnt helped on that

#

now has it

fresh osprey
#

if you make 10 million a year and 8 million goes in a bank, thats 8 million dollars removed from the economy

#

i didnt vote for him

dense trout
#

too easy to make broad claims about cause

fresh osprey
#

no

dense trout
#

if you make 10 million a year and 8 million goes in a bank, thats 8 million dollars removed from the economy
@fresh osprey no it doesn't

dreamy helm
#

he won the electoral college game

fresh osprey
#

it goes into stocks garrulous

dreamy helm
#

the people did not elect him

dense trout
#

the banks use that money for loans

fresh osprey
#

which doesnt help anyone but rich people

#

LOL

#

banks use it to gamble

dense trout
#

in a flawed sense, yes

fresh osprey
#

they buy stocks, they buy futures

hardy forge
#

LOL
you know someone's wrong when peach says LOL

fresh osprey
#

they make more money

dreamy helm
#

LOL

hardy forge
#

LOL

fresh osprey
#

but that doesnt help the average joe

#

at all

dreamy helm
#

realistically both parties are at fault for a lot of the issues

fresh osprey
#

money has to be SPENT to help people

dreamy helm
#

not all

hardy forge
#

can we talk about how college in america is a scam because of the insanely high cost,and student debt ontop after

#

đŸ€”

dense trout
#

tbh i think there's too much dunning-kruger here

fresh osprey
#

thats the core of functional capitalism

#

not to say i support capitalism

tough escarp
#

yeah - it's like a circular cashflow the way it's designed

#

if you dont spend it you cant earn it

dreamy helm
#

a socialist, eh?

fresh osprey
#

but in a hypothetical scenario where capitalism IS functional, you cant have all the money sitting at the top with just 10% going to the bottom

#

100% i am a socialist

#

or near socialist

dreamy helm
#

poggers

#

same

fresh osprey
#

i dont think capitalism is bad tho

#

i just know that in its current iteration, it isnt working as intended

dreamy helm
#

its complicated

tough escarp
#

it's never black and white

fresh osprey
#

and that to fix it right now, the easiest solution is UBI

dreamy helm
#

yes

#

UBI would fix a lot of issues

tough escarp
#

a functional economy has elements of all philosophies

fresh osprey
#

high taxes on the wealthy, and an immediate introduction of UBI would pour a lot of money back into the economy

dense trout
#

armchair economists đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

hardy forge
#

you know the wealthy would pull their multibillionaire strings and delete any bill

tough escarp
#

don't you talk bad about my armchair!

hardy forge
#

that would put high taxes

#

on the wealthy

dreamy helm
#

yes

dreamy helm
#

we know this dafire

#

they will do whatever they can to maintain the status quo

#

nothing new

fresh osprey
#

@hardy forge with a democratic congress and senate that wouldnt be true

dreamy helm
#

it definitely would be weaker than it should be still though peach

fresh osprey
#

even with billionaires having influence, all democrats overwhelmingly support a higher wealth tax

hot mesa
fresh osprey
#

35-40% on money over 400k is all thats needed

#

other countries do more, sure

#

but that much cash injection would allow for an insanely massive increase in QoL

dreamy helm
#

an extreme wealth tax needs to bea thing

timber crag
#

Don't forget about the percentage of the disenfranchised proletariat that believes they're only temporarily disenfranchised and that becoming a member of the entrenched bourgeoisie is an inevitability

fresh osprey
#

thats the plan under the Biden tax plan

dreamy helm
#

now he just needs to get elected and have a congress majority

#

lmao

fresh osprey
#

well, dems have the house

dreamy helm
#

im sad I fucked up my voter registration )=

fresh osprey
#

and so far, its looking like they have a good chance of getting at least 50 seats in the senate

dense trout
#

might i point out that we've gone full into politics now

fresh osprey
#

and if early voting is any indication, dems might win florida

#

yeah

#

need to stop

#

sorry

hardy forge
#

even with billionaires having influence, all democrats overwhelmingly support a higher wealth tax
i still think they'd easily find a way

#

to bribe/corrupt/put a wrench in

#

and stop any plan to remove their wealth

fresh osprey
#

exceptl, ya know, dems have consistently passed higher wealth taxes

#

like - historically

that is about to catch fire

dense trout
#

i had a 3d printer once that came as a kit

#

it came with a typical computer power cord but you had to cut off the computer end and wrap the wires around screw terminals

#

which wasn't too bad but one time i accidentally moved it a little too far, the wires broke off and briefly sparked together

#

as in, it wasn't as obviously dangerous as that power supply pic but still ended up not being safe

#

i actually can't remember if it tripped a circuit breaker

You shouldn’t have to totally change how you play to make a talent work. The problem is the demon slams into wherever you end up, which especially doing world content, isn’t where your target is at that moment

Which means you have to aim to end your fel rush where your target will be when it ends
