A bit touchy though, you only mentioned it twice
would you be interested in investing into feetcoin
yeah its fine, i get it... makes perfect sense, dont want BOT spamers
sign me up lol
people quit diablo like they quit every other game, just d4 lacks a lot of endgame content/qol stuff
the campaign is good
That...was disgusting.
replay value is low tho
I need a real PC.
A water-cooled 13900KS...a water-cooled 4090...and a bunch of 8 TB SSDs.
Still looks good
Yea, 'cause its at 1080p with full graphics.
Except...Photo Mode lugs around at 1-3 FPS...
With those above components, I could do a 60 FPS Photo Mode! Imagine that...
drools uncontrollably.
nah... latest gen i7 and 3070 is all you need
We'v had this conversation before
Don't make it worse, Beaky... π
I'm trying to future-proof here!
i need water cooling i have a aio currently
Uh...AIO = water-cooling?
Yea, but then most people say 'custom-loop'.
But, I mean...it's still water-cooling, not air.
potato... po-tah-to
Or LN2, for those excessive people.
custom loop also comes with a pump, aio pump is weak compared to it
Get one for me too.
my radiator fans have to run fast bc of that
yeah high flow, aios will always have that drawback unless you spend a lot
I'd love that too, but my tool-working skills are bad...
So making a custom loop is so not my thing.
And your pearls
Air is all I have.
With shit paste, so 4.4 GHz = 100 Celsius.
if you have a noctua cpu cooler you are pretty set

Hi @primal loom
Howdy
Doing fine
I posted some images in off topic from blender
Looks great! π
I've been working in Blender recently, I need to get everything reinstalled and set up so I can keep at it
Had to reinstall Windows
I hate you too... π
Also, you both 3D artists?
Or just a hobby?
I use the steam version, it's very easy to update
hobby
also hobby for me
Saw yours...you totally cheesed it.
And ho-lee-sheet!
Please tell me that's a texture and you didn't actually hand-model it...
Yes, it's a procedural texture on a sphere π
much easier than it looks
the pillar was much more difficult
Easier than creating all those lines and spirals by hand, you know...
Indeed
But it shows...
You got art, Beaky...you ever going professional?
You too, Mr. 'Constant'.
I might at some point
If I can learn more before machine learning makes me obsolete lol
Nah...an artist's touch is an artist's touch.
Very true
Also, I know what I heard from someone...
'Every creation must have a slight imperfection. It shows you're a living being that can make mistakes.'
A machine will never have that.
(And sorry I interrupted you...you were typing)
Oh you're fine, no worries
I was going to say something similar
Human imagination is still a wildcard that computers can't replicate, so there will still be a place for artists even if the technology and mediums of that art changes
Here's an old project, I've since lost the project file for it
Beak no make backups... π
It was a long time ago π₯²
and im waiting for my cheese to render lol
And with better textures, that'd literally fit in Space Engine!
I might have to dig around, it could still be in here somewhere
Change your name to 'CheeseFPS'.
You better.
It's becoming a Skyrim render
"How many cheese wheels can we fit in here?"
Here's a tribute I made to a defunct MMO called LEGO Universe
Ty πββοΈ
Kidbeak had a lot of fun in that game, it had a very robust building system for its time
Unfortunately the plug was pulled due to the corporate board not trusting in the technology
I think they still use the game's theme song in the Legoland parks

I still have the collectors edition!
I worked on it
Whaaat
Was good times mostly
That's awesome 
Ahh
Netdevil was supposed to make Jumpgate for Codemasters but didn't deliver
Got sued out the butt
Dang
Classes were so cool
Do they ever?
In fairness they had some good reasons, there were issues with the dev company
Though I don't know much about what happened there
You'll love this Beaky
So
You remember how you could design your own houses and you had simple logic to make stuff like puzzles or traps work?
And some of the epic stuff people made
It was supposed to plug in to LDD so you could buy the stuff you made in the game
And it would come with an instruction manual and everything
And all the rockets that you were supposed to be able to buy
Yess, Space Marauder was my favorite π
Loved the Engineer too
Blast from the past

@primal loom here's another one
Fair.
Bread!
Stole my word.
Too dry for my tastes though...
My favourite was Engineer! Played Knight first
You're so not sorry!
I remember having to buy an Orchid Voodoo card to play it
We're old
Sad times indeed

regenerator empathy kaeulas end is fucking evil lol
baldurs gate 3 patch notes 
What...the...f...?
You know...I'm just going to put my eyes in an acid bath to get cleaned.
smacks Adam with a sausage.
kinda reminds of the image on the page of blender that represents a city
Should I try Destiny 2? π€
p2w trash game... not worth it!
I want play a sci-fi game with builds. I'm trying to find some
I knew you were going to suggest Warframe ππ
Cuz its a good game π
Do people actually play it?
No, nobody plays it
looks very active to me
And more importantly... its a "True f2p"
meaning, no p2w bullshit
Alright, I'm downloading now. π. I just wanted to try something different from Skyrim lol
Dest 2 btw
It has more, it must be better
3 weeks until Starfield π
Onb I'm waiting for that to be released. Playing it day one ππ
im not... not gona wreck my experience knowing it will have issues on release!
Ill be playing Cyberounk + expansion while they fix Starfield
Already got everything planned out π
These are the best patch notes I've ever seen lmao
I actually have hope Starfield will be pretty ok patched on day 1
Small funny bugs I don't mind
I def have more confidence in this than any other Bethesda game released in the past since Skyrim
im expecting performance issues given wht was said already
I mean I have a pretty good PC so I'm not really worried about performance issues this year a lot of games stated to be hard to run my PC has done pretty well actually
I just hope Starfield is good
I have my worries but π
Thank you
Drives me nuts when people think it's p2w
Never even played d&d, I dont know π
It bothers me that there's an open spot on the bottom right
High Strength gnome, dew it 
I think I will also do tiefling because Iβm a bad bish 
yes
Not a clue what I'd pick
im going elf
they're called mer
I'm having a hard time to focus on it because lots of words and thinking + adhd is
Too many words shortcircuit the brain
Yeah a lot of the game is dialogue
Especially when I can boot up warframe and press the funny button while I watch everything die
OH GOD I'M AN INDECISIVE MOLUSC
tts?
assist me
I'm the most basic of bitches and I'm gonna be a Drow swordsman who dual wields, lol
funnn
And he will be a Ranger
I really love the dice rolls and the fact you literally watch a dice roll is so goddamn cute
same, my specs are higher then Recoomended... but the game will still have performance issues!
its common sense given wht the devs already said...
What classes are there? I want wacky magic
The usual d&d stuff
Living vicariously thru Drizzt huh
There's classes and sub-classes, so you'll have plenty of magic to choose from π
if you wanna shapeshift then the obvious answer is druid
Oh god. Decision making 
Thinkin druid or bard
you can also multiclass
90% of the game is dialogue and decision making, lol
OHO
There is 23 classes and 48 subclasses overall
I KNOW IM SO SCREWED
And dice rolls, for said decisions
I'm a Vengeful Paladin that beats the hell out of everything with a Axe
Iβm gonna be sitting there at every dialogue choice trying to read the vibes
If anyone picks human you scare me
Humans are actually really good ngl
Of all the choices Ill have
I'll pick one
Really? 
I'm the opposite, I'll just go through the whole thing and realize I didn't understand a single thing anyone said
They added a happy cute Tali from Mass Effect type character you can have in your party and the internet is already in love with her π
Yeah humans get stat boosts if you use Glaives, Daggers, Light Armor etc making them arguably the best race for rogue
That is also the worst. Happened in Mass Effect because I kept skipping dialogue and itβd select a choice and I had to reload multiple times because for some reason my brain was like keep spamming it
Interesting. Iβm pretty set on magic of some kind atm but weβll see! Iβm sure Iβll be playing it more than once lol
Imagine going into an epic fantasy world and being like "yeah I want to play as the normal dude"
I accidentally killed one of the NPCs I could have recruited without realizing it
Right?? I wanna be a tiefling or the dragon people 
I saw a high Strength gnome literally kick down the front doors of a castle, obviously that's the superior option π€£
That's me!
Not the gnome
But I did that thing
No spoilers, I haven't found her :(
I'm a Halfling so I'm similar to a gnome
I should probably stay out of this channel til I get BG π
Not a lot of spoilers to be afraid off tbh
I'm not gonna say who she is, just that she exists π
Just talking about funny things
Also if your Strength is high enough you can fill your inventory with full size explosive barrels, which has led to a whole new meme combat style that involves using sneak abilities/spells to place barrels everywhere before a fight then nuking fuckin everything using a Fireball spell from a safe distance π€£
frankly there are, imo knowing literally as little as possible is the best way to go into a game
The adventures of Average Joe Named Phil as he traverses a land full of strange beings and weird questlines. He's just trying to deliver the post 
I miss DA Inquisition
Then go play it again???
No
Iβm fairly fine with that as long as no one starts going off on the story or quests
I trust yβall here but you never know
nerd
My BG3 character is I'm a Halfling named Dante Devello from the hit show Its Always Sunny in Baldurs Gate (designed after Danny Devito)
oh i dont like decision making
I do need to play it again tho, never did Trespasser
im very bad at decisions
That's true
SAME
Just pick randomly
People are calling it Barrelmancy btw 
my friend told me that they thought i was bad with decisions but when we met in person i was even worse
I beat a dude to death with a staff and I'm a paladin
I fuckin love that. I have an oil barrel in my pocket in DOS2, itβs good luck at this point
Imagine not literally always playing a low str character
I really love the Heat Wine in BG3 it's just explosive wine
how much stuff can i carry
at least one apple
Baldurs Gate doesn't have violence does it π¨
You can carry so many barrels in BG3, you can literally use explosive barrels as a combat style if you're tricky enough π
Nope, you only fight enemies with the power of love and friendship
Uh oh π°π°π°π°π° should I tell him guys
That orrrrr you can push them of a ledge to a 200 ft drop (they are sleeping)
I saw someone yeet a halfling off a cliff in a fight cuz they rolled a successful Strength check, obviously high Strength builds are the best ones 
High strength is big funny, I AM tempted. But I wanna be a witch 
I got backflipped into a lava pool 2 days ago
LMAO
screw it I'll play some rn
Go a Oath of Vengeance Paladin it's Magic and Strength and you absolutely destroy enemies
No offense, but paladins suck
no offense but you suck
Realizing Iβll need to replay the game several dozen times to get a playthrough of all the classes and races
offense but you
I'm aware
17k ending variations
You have never played a oath of vengeance paladin then
i want to go dos2 machine gun archer
several dozen
π€£
only over a dozen
Yeah, I only play good classes π
What yβall talking about
Let me guess moon druid???
minecraft
I highly doubt all 17k endings will be worth experiencing, they're just minor variations
Iβm probably gonna go for tiefling druid bard or something I dont know 
just random roll it
They are not it's just word changes one of larians devs came out and clarified
they are likely being meanie heads and talkin about a game that I can't play on Xbox
the internet will catalogue them all
Shadow Warlock Money Gang (we love casting spells)
Early 2024!!!!
Oh noo its not on xbox??
fuuuck
oh
not yet
2024 for sure?
no
I'll play my own version of a moon druid, AKA a druid who runs around in his undies mooning people during fights π€£
Yep the announced it will be done in early 2024
Supposedly it's blocked because of COUCH CO-OP not working on Series S
The CEO said it on a interview
no confirmed date they said they will shoot for 2024
but no promises
if they dont get couch coop to work
This is true
hmm
blame the specs of the series s
You can kill people with bad words as a Bard, literally peak gaming
game with dozens of classes and races
human fighter
Time to game
Honestly if they don't get couch coop to work then they could just not add it tbh
I blame Couch Co-OP

Fighter is so OP tho
Having 5 attacks in a row is nuts
im an adult can steam stop asking for age verification
I donβt even know what game youβre talking about lol
Baldurs gate 3
Oh
Thatβs rough :((
Itβs essentially a dnd video game right?
I'm super excited for Starfield I just need BG3 to pass the time and ARMORED CORE FINALLYA
Yep that's about it
This isn't related to BG3 but I'm Kenough in Borderlands 3, LMFAOOOO π€£
I'm not kenough, it's joever for me π’
60 dollars
Yep iβm waiting for a sale
But can I be Kenough in BG3? That's the real question
I can and will make a Bard who loves pink and horses and wears a fur coat all the time, lol
The only gameplay iβve seen is someone obliterating a squirrel
LMAOOOO Dark urge is insane
Your always kenough π€π€
Turn based RPG that's literally a massive D&D campaign where most of your choices and combat stuff is determined by a dice roll
Alright
Also has damn good graphics and a very very large story
Too me (I am biased due to DND being a thing since my grandfather dm'ed in the 80s) it's phenomenal
Well worth the 60$
It's also completely unhinged and you can do damn near anything if you build yourself certain ways, like killing people by throwing your shoes at them π€£
da boi
Yeahhh
BASED AND PALADIN PILLED
was my first D&D char π₯²
I don't get the point of turn-based combat...
Oh my first was a drow (never again)
To defeat your enemies obvs 
In one fell swoop you can topple armies mwahahhaha
I never played turn based combat outside of pokemon til I played DOS2
Or I can slip on a patch of ice and become crippled π
I meant the point of turn-based instead of actual real-time combat...
Genuinely Stellaris and BG3 are the only turn based game irl
You do know that different games are... different?
Turn based is a lot more strategy and planning tbh
I know I know π itβs a different style and it requires more thought than Iβm used to but itβs been really fun
stellaris is real time, fake fan
Man's never played a board game
Listen man it is the closest I got
I saw a clip of someone throwing their leather boots at an enemy to kill them cuz they were a melee build and didn't have any more movement points to get close enough for melee combat π
Besides actual D&D then I play irl and board games and such but videogames never
So...it's like you're facing an enemy, but the enemy can wait forever while you decide what you're going to do.
Iβve never played d&d
'I want to kill you, but I'll wait an eternity if I need to.'
My friend beat a guy to death with a sausage
Itβs very strategic to vats punch frank horrigan in the nuts and poke his eyes
Just like in skyrim when I can pause and eat 70 soups and get back to it
Turn based doesn't take that long lmao
40 wheels of goat cheese
You get my point... π
It might for me, my three brain cells are trying very hard
TBH, turn-based feels immersion-breaking, but that's just me.
Stellaris is better turn-based, since it's still real-time.
It's alright you just cast fireball or sword swing 100 times over π
Turn based combat exists cuz some people like planning stuff and watching funny numbers absolutely obliterate the enemy, it's a preference thing. Might as well ask why any game genre exists
I mean if you're playing games for immersion then don't play turn based
Or, play card based games
For your second sentence, no.
That's true why do Real time game exists when we can just go outside and do it irl?
But the first one again...doesn't make sense. You can plan shit out in real-time?
I do get what youβre saying though. Different styles. Itβs very gratifying to spend 10 minutes talking over an approach with my friend and then absolutely wrecking enemies in 10 seconds
Like, you see an enemy with X weapon and Y armour and you know what you're going to use (that's an example, BTW)
Card games like Inscryption retain immersion because playing cards irl is also turn based
It's incredibly satisfying
That's seriously like asking why skyrim is a fantasy game when it could be sci-fi because you don't like fantasy
God I need to play that game
Again, I'm not against the style, I'm just trying to understand, 'cause I...just don't get it.
It's like playing a game with established rules
No, but I think it's a board game, where multiple people play and hence, each one needs a turn?
That's all
Ceryn said it well
the pretty
It be what it is. I don't get why people like racing or sports games, but all the power to em for doing so
I never questioned likes.
True the only racing game i like is Forza4-5 that's it I just like driving HATE races
I'm simply not getting the point of turn-based instead of real-time. 'Cause when I think about it, I'm like...what if HL2 was a turn-based game? You could have Freeman aiming individually at different Combine soldiers and then watch the animation play-out...or you could just do that in real time and actually play.
And for the third time...this is not a question of preferences. Just the mechanics.
I'm sorry but there is literaly no way to answer that question.
Because some people like those mechanics more, it is a question of preference
For me, and Iβm very new to it, the appeal is in thinking about all the actions I can take and how to get the best results. Iβve never thought too hard in a game like Skyrim because I could just run where I need to and use whatever. But in DOS2 there is a lot more to think about. I canβt turn someone into a chicken until the physical armor is gone
Itβs 100% preference
Whatβs the point of any other combat style? I personally love variety
Turn based adds RNG to combat, which adds a whole new layer to what you're doing
So turn based, first person shooting, hack and slash, all good to me
also a great point
OK, that makes a lot more sense than 'preference'.
But not every turn based game has RNG, and real time games have RNG
Because in turn based you can control what happens easier and there is a set group of rules. When your playing real time your friend says I will heal you but you don't know when or they get interrupted this gives turn based a shine to it when you know exactly the enemy is going to attack and how to plan for it. It also ands RNG which adds risk and interesting points to it. It allows groups to plan better.
It's like running a raid in a MMO but it actually going smoothly
Right...that's what I wanted to know, and I appreciate you and Duck explaining it. Makes more sense.
Iβm saying itβs 100% preference because I feel like explaining the mechanics of a type of game isnβt going to change your opinion of it. Either you like it or you donβt, or you like some and not others. Idk, Iβm just here to have a good time
Iβm not very good at explaining it because Iβm super new (literally just pokemon and DOS2) so I didnβt try 
Well...like I said, this had nothing to do with opinions and preferences...just didn't get the point of the mechanics, but Duck and Ark did help out there, makes a lot more sense to me now.
But I mean
Like I usually don't like turn based video games at all. But Baldurs Gate has a fluidity to it that isn't jarring that knocks you out of the immersion
It is a preference
Yeah, I agree with wormy. There's no secret scientific formula to why people like it 
Much like it's a different type of game, it's still a preferred type of game
In a real time game you can't make a choice, fail a dice roll miserably, then suffer the consequences of the RNG gods' wrath π€£
And simply it boils down to what your preference is it's simply all you can say
So true
I never did talk about 'likes'...but either ways...
We sat down with Swen Vincke (Game Director), Adam Smith (Lead Writer), and Nick Pechenin (Lead Systems Designer) to break down every single class in Baldur's Gate 3 including the brand-new Monk class.
Baldur's Gate 3 is a massive RPG based on the the Dungeons and Dragons TTRPG. The game is being developed by Larian Studios and has been in earl...

mmm
Yes, you didn't, but that's literally all there is to it. There is nothing besides liking or not liking it.
There is...as Ark said, about being able to plan more efficiently and getting the chance to plan vs. the uncertainty of real-time combat.
And that's the logic I wanted to know.
(Technically, it's supposed to be obvious, but I'm small brain)
I didnβt want to try to explain the mechanics because again I know very little and it wouldnβt be right of me to try and explain what I donβt really understand yet. I only wanted to express that much of why people play specific types of games is personal preference, rather than a deeper understanding of the technical aspect leading to that preference. My thinking was that if you didnβt like turn based the first however many times youβve tried it, explaining wouldnβt change that.
Now picture Baldurs Gate with XCOM mechanics 
whats that
XCOM is a bad game, don't play it
(I have literally never played it)
Yβall put it well though
Point blank in XCOM, you can still miss because the attack is chance based
XCOM I hate it
I fuckin love Xcom, it was the first turn based game I got into after PokΓ©mon π
Actually despise it I tried once never again
Also for some reason people made wiafus out of the XCOM snake women
So theres that too
Mechanicus has extremely satisfying turn based combat
Also turn based combat can make you feel like super badass
almost done
It's fine, I appreciate it. π
What game?
bg3 lol
Only turn based game I play atm is Star Rail
but why brain doggo cute
128 GB???
You can keep him or one like him, iirc
Oh damn nice they reduced the download size
The game is huge my man
was it bigger?
Huge game with no mtx 
starfield should be 125gb too
I miss the days when we had 3 cities, multiple rural towns, villages and rural areas along with country-sides and deserts and even Area 51 in the space of a single DVD...
was listed on amazon as that
Fuckin massive story, massive map with a billion moving parts, and ungodly amounts of NPCs. And 17k ending variations, lol. And an insane amount of voice acting. And damn good graphics
textures take up space
so does audio
thats the majority of big games now
audio files and textures
Time to downgrade to HL2 textures.
ew no
600 spells, 2000 NPCs, 75-100 hour story, massive open world etc etc
God no
Did you just 'ew' HL2 graphics?
yes
Also they said that BG3 will launch larger and over updates they are going to compress the game to around 80 gb
why did i buy a new gpu not to play high fidelity games
Yeah, pure content has very little to do with file size
Yea, I get that. But still...
it's mostly audio and high-res textures
and theres a ton of audio
Lady...HL2 was state-of-the-art!
Your gaming in 2023 my man games take a lot now
How dare you!
VAs work overtime
@dry dirgehow long did it take you to dl bg3
Most of them do.
theres no way its actually 17,000 lol
2 hours?
There is not
He also does some Mario & PokΓ©mon stuff
at all
It's just minor variations to dialogue and stuff
17000 variations to the ending(s) minor variations of dialogue. There are only 12 specific endings
meme
You got a 10 MB/s connection?
varies from 7-20 or so
I'm half-jealous.
@tame cairn Just realized you changed your gt lol nice name
70MB/s here
You can now get a steam deck someone probably didn't keep down their underwear
i had 30MB/s
i kept it down my underwear
π
satyr?
Xbox
im on wifi rn
1 Mb/s down, 512 up.
i could get 100 if i had a hardline
oh
make your own cable
i dont own the house
dont ahev to drill hole
Ouch.
absolute showoff smh
@tame cairn How have you been? Haven't seen you in a while.
skill issue
just use cable guiders with glue

i dont think she would take kindly to a cable running thru the house up the stairs
Good thanks, just working irl and watching stargate
i would have to feed a wire outside and around thru a window
You?
You on rent, or living with a relative or something?
That sound like a good idea actually. I'm tempted to watch it again.
I'm good been building way too much on minecraft & dealing with my sleep.
rent
that router is far away
Fair enough.
Also, 70 MB/s isn't slow, it's like...excessive already.
good thing my retal house has ethenet ports in allmost every room
i have a 50ft cable
Don't think it should even matter at this point.
no clue on feet
thats for downloads
but my cable is 25m
i have to switch to my powerline connect to play games
Iβve never seen it and Iβm now on Season 7, great show.
What's a 'powerline'?
internet thru a power outlet
That's a thing???
not great tho
yeah
connect modem to the wall plug then plug the other one where you want it and you have an ethernet connection
or some old good routers as range extenders
SG Atlantis is good too
its slower but more stable
Damn...
wifi still has inherent issues
i dont mind the powerline its great
i dont need blazing speeds for multiplayer games
true
i just switch to wifi for downloads
This is Powerline π€£
but you do need it for downlaods XD
Amazon has pretty much all of them so definitely gonna watch that next
ah crap i was going to test powerline with bg3 but its already finished downloading
have fun with that one
heared it's great
first world problems
I don't even know who that is.
It's only as old as me π
at least some thing i can be proud of from belgium π
I'm glad I have the modem right near the PC...so fibre-DSL to modem, modem to PC, all wired.
Fittings aren't perfect, but...it works.
Powerline, duh
also wiretype is important

OTOH, my internet speed is garbage...
Powerline from the Goofy Movie π€£
im using cat 7 now
Never seen it, so...didn't know.
lol me neither just making a dumb joke
its a bit more expensive than cat5e but can go up to 10Gb/s
Wormy how haven't you seen the Goofy Movie π
you should wathc that moive with your kids if you have any
so yeah powerline hovers around 20MB/s
seems at least you have decent ISP
not too bad but much slower than wifi
20 is not bad at all.
fiber yeah
20 is seriously high speed.
Like...serious.
someone kinked the cable once and net was down the whole day
rofl
My wifi go brrrrrr
epic game slaunchers doesn't understand the remember me option
46 down, 1 up...
IDK why ISPs always give shit upload compared to download.
Mb is megabit, MB is megabyte
Like...why even?
i know
Reminds me of this language joke...
there changed it
wifi
sobs
'Grammar is important. Capital letters are the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.'
'Cause big number = good marketing.
wait
not really
this is the 5GHz band lol
It's the reason why ISPs always use Mb/s.
thats why its slower
Yes, really.
theres a long distance from me and the router
Please stop bragging already...I'm in tears...
My internet is pretty good
nah i just mean i should see if i can get it to do the 2.4 band
Does your ISP market speeds in MB/s or Mb/s?
most of the time they add like it takes 5mins to download a movie
Our Upload is about 390 mbps
Mb as every other ISP
Exactly.
it's annoying af
my potato internet
When they don't realize it's just 128 MB/s.
ping is great tho
well 1000Mb is 1Gb so yeah
(Which is very good speed, but still)
Yea, but it's not actually 1 GB, it's still 128 MB.
But 1 Gb/s looks better.
but 10Mb would've been good example
Yea, but you get the point. It's exactly why they use it.
i know
People get excited with bigger numbers.
big numbers look better
Bunch of sheep.
Umm, I'm pretty sure 1024 is only used by microsoft and windows
it works
TBH...anything that's not binary doesn't fit for computer storage purposes, though I do appreciate decimals.
Wait, decimals? Or what was the term?
I, uh...hate my memory.
for exact number they have to annote it as MBi if im not mistaken
MiB.
'Mebibyte'...that's as cringe as it gets.
'Kibibyte'...
'Gibibyte'.
Someone kill me.
but that the exact binary value
more like "maybe-bites"
Men In Black π€£
if you look at you tech info of your HDD/SSD it's should say it somewhere
another great movie
TBH, HDDs have always used MBs...but metric rather than binary.
Or decimals...or whatever the term is.
decimal
Like...4000 GB rather than 4096 GB.
yes but if you check they tech info it will say it
actual volume xxxGiB
no ISP will ever do that
π
they'll perfer to use stuff like
you can download a 10GB in 10mins
or watch HD content without stutters
liek bruh
HD
I need opinions.
Ah yes, the Mission Impossible where Henry Cavill reloads his arms mid-fight π
IKR? OTOH, most people are like: 'Can I watch Netflix in 1080p?'
So...honestly, the people are equally stupid.
yes?
Should I get Star Citizen? What does it have to offer, and what does it not.

There, now you can reload too.
that's to smart
they ask can i watch in HD
Yep... π
not sure if SD is 720p or 480p
480p
TrueHD = 1080.
hd is 720p while fhd is 1080p
qhd and 4k are different
had to find aonline vendor
Yea, realized later. Fixed.
all those damned cable mentioned 4K but 2.0 can also handle 4k dammit
just less bitrate
'Cause physical store expects those stupid customers who just 'want their Netflix to work.'
Or connect to the STB that their cable provider gives them.
i need 2.1 for my 49in screen -_- so it can hopefully, properly display my work laptop''s content
Why 2.1, though?
higher bitrate
Also, 49...damn...
I mean...what's your work that it needs 2.1?
just so i can properly use the resolution
2.0 cable is only pusing 3440x1080
while i need 5120x1440
π
How do you people even use such massive screens? I have like...a 27" 1080p monitor and I get tired of moving my head around to see the whole thing.
i had 2 27 in
And I get it...being unable to have full resolution is painful.
No, I get that too, but like...so wide...
1800R curve
if you're at a proper distance you abrely need to move you head
my 49in is basically split in 3 zones
1 left 1 center 1 right
so discord is right, middle is browsser
and left is other
Me neither, but I do get it...3 windows in one screen.
Rather than having 2 different screens.
eyesore
Yep.
I mean...it's nice to be able to multi-task.
Constant Alt-Tab gets painful. I know.
multitasking
and less neck pain
neck pain?
well if you look right
a lot
can get bothersome
i do have a turning chair but still
but for most people i do suggest 34in ultra wide
instead of 49in
especially if you don't have dual monitor setup
Gaming in borderless or get out lol
ha
imagine having a 49in ultra wide
dont have to do that π
depends on the model
but yeah
2x 27in are cheaper
but i also wanted an immersive experience for games π
i mean
I'm quite into multitasking, so having a wider screen is always a plus
Granted, I have dual monitor right now.
well try out either 34 in or 49
rightβ¦
W i d e
if you don't game a lot you can get "cheap" 49in
for the low price of $400 (cheapest i could find)
i got a 49in
thats basically 2 good 27in in price
its super great for sp games
my whole point is that this is excessive
got it for $400 down from $1k, its now $800
but i wont understand until i have money to blow like that i suppose
I want a 22" 1080p screen with speakers.
Had a 24" Samsung that...broke.
And that was too big for me.
Mine is 27, but 1080p. Pixel density's shit.
currently i also have 1080p, 24'', i am opposed to 1080p for this size of screen xD
yeah 1440p at least on 27in
ready or not on ultrawide
Most people said, "Should've gotten 4K for that".
nah 1440p is fine
4k is better but way more expensive
27in 1440p can reasonably priced
got 1 for 150$
has no gsynce or freesync
but was 120hz at least
wow so cheap
The HP M27ha FHD Monitor is an affordable option for those looking for a great work from home setup. The optimized screen offers crisp pictures on a full HD display with ultra-wide viewing angles. You can stare at the 27-inch monitor all day since HP Low Blue Light software filters blue light wit...
can be wrong on 1 stat ore 2
salutes with theG9 Neo
Tron...culture.
also that
Dad likes tron, neat
Loved Tron: Legacy. Shame they never made a sequel.
Local thrift store?
Just had to be 69...
PEAQ PMO S271-IQC 27" F WQHD
75HZ FREESYNC
and its pretty slim too
Well, approximate, but still.
price went up i saw
That one?
could be yes
that the full name
PEAQ PMO S271-IQC 27" F WQHD
75HZ FREESYNC GUN-METALL B
Apparently most sites selling that are German...
well it seems to be a german brand
but try looking on PC partpicker
180$
well Euro
My Dad loves all pop culture basically D&D, transformers, and Tron are his big 3
Also robotech and Gundam
ask if you dad has watched tron uprising
if he hasn't he should
We actually watched it together!
Still cheaper and better than mine.
Ooooh
well look on PCpartpicker or similar to find parts at local stores
do they make 4K ultrawides? can a RTX2080 drive it?
That from a tech site that does reviews and stuff
only Netherlands and Belgium
but very handy to look for stuff
but AOC has a 27in/1440p/155Hz screen for just 199Euro it seems
anyway
dont need a new screen for the next 10 years i think
Well...over here, it'll still cost a lot..
idk
Same. I'm not intending to replace this one for a long time.
just an fyi
Nah, I get that. π Appreciate the pointers.

Gleam roasting Game.
Anyone playing baldur's gate 3? I'm a D&D player, but never played any of the BG games before
Was wondering what more experienced folks thought about it
that should tell you something
also larian made Divinity Original Sin 1&2 if you ever played those
but going of the reviews it seems to real good
@snow zenith don't you have BG3?
It's very different from the first two, and is essentialy a Divinity game set in forgotten realms
that isn't to say it's bad, though
I and I'd wager most bg1-2 fans like it
@idle saffron you coming to play solitaire or what?
black hawk down, inception, indiana jones, sahara, the uncharted series, resident evil etc. the list goes on
Yeah what time
Whenever your bridge game is done
Alrighty
its time
The more time goes along to closer starfield is
world's largest monitor
Looking fabulous 
ty 
BG3? They let you play drow?
yes
Yep it's Gnome, Elf, Half Elf, Human, Dragonborn, Half Orc, Halfling, Dwarf, Tiefling, Githyanki and Drow
I wonder how they bridged the setting between editions. Dragonborn didn't exist before π
I'm surprised two evil races are available. Must be related to the plot I guess?
big profit
Yo, I tried Warframe. Gave it a good 2 hours. I beat
||vor||
It's good game so far
The game play loop isn't going here, clear the dungeon complete the objective right?
Has anyone here tried the Expanse game from the reconstituted Telltale?
I'm a fan of the Expanse, a sometime fan of the old Telltale games, but I'm wondering how this one turned out.
kinda
game's early game is slow
right as you reach uranus things start picking up fast
Man funny mail from Google they're updating their inactive accounts policy, if you're inactive for 2 years they'll delete your account. Sounds oddily familiar
Got it too.
Weird that they don't get the flack Ubisoft had
tbh it's more understandable with google
there's so many accounts they gotta manage inactive ones must be a pain to maintain
annoying thing is
been trying to get access to an old af account to get all my game accounts off it
idk what will happen to those game accounts if the email gets nuked
it may seem simplistic cuz u havent learned the diferent types of raids yet... but yes in the beggining its very simple!
It does get harder as you unlock new zones... theres also open world areas down on planets tht u will unlock eventually!
Also... Follow the story lines... they worth it!
Keep in mind tht Warframe is like 12 years old now... so ull see old content mixed with new one... Either way, its a trully great game for being a f2p!
Save the Wiki page for Warframe... https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Damage ... It will help you alot, where to find specific materials from wht mobs... or where to find tht one mob u need to grind so he drops the MOD you looking for ur build... and so on!
Old Duke & my old now sold Series S. @dull tulip
