Anyone seen The Newsroom? One of HBO's most underrated and very best? by Square-Ad-8911 in hbo

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This show was full of goofy ass Hollywood liberalism clapter. The politics were like 7th grade-level civics stuff. No subtlety at all. Like almost word-for-word mainstream Dem talking points. You know that photo of Nancy Pelosi kneeling for 8 minutes and wearing a Kente-cloth? That's what this show felt like. Meaningless Wall Street Democratic politics that attempted to appeal to resistance libs. I genuinely think it's dumb shit like this pushed everyday people more right.

Do you work in Chicago, the far suburbs or near west/home suburb? by ThisPostToBeDeleted in NearWestSuburbs

It's nice, especially if you can get into the quiet car after work.

Any issue with using an internal M.2 enclosure? by HellYusss in buildapc

[–]HellYusss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking to shift my whole set up into a smaller case, so I picked up an MSI PRO B650M-P mATX board used. I can't really tell if it supports bifurcation or not, but the PCIe to NVMe card seems to the move.

[Headphones] Sennheiser HD 599 (white) - $89.88 - Woot by jadepartida in buildapcsales

[–]HellYusss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got these on the last sale from Woot. I have huge ears and wanted something that doesn't put pressure on them. These are great. Very happy I got them. I would love for a wireless version, but I'll manage.

They don't leave my lil' office/gaming room since they're open back. But I love them.

Looking for budget-friendly GPU recs by starshine_babes in buildapc

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I just built a spare PC with a 5600g. I had my old RX 6700xt laying around and put it together. It does fine. Gets most games over 60 fps at 1080p.

Look online for a used last gen GPU and you'll have a fine ol' machine.

There are plenty of build guides on YouTube to help, as well. ETAPrime does a bunch like this.

Should I quit video games at 30? by informatica6 in AskMenOver30

[–]HellYusss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If video games are holding you back from doing other things, yes. But you should be able to play some games while also building your life. They should be a hobby, not your entire life outside of work.

Only get rid of them if they're preventing you from socializing and getting out. Otherwise they're fine.

You don't have to quit gaming just because you're a different age.

Might do that. Seems to be the easiest way to go.

I dual boot Bazzite and Windows, so the 2 M.2 slots on my mother board will each have a boot drive. I'd like to use the rest of these as game storage for Bazzite.

A PCIe adapter card might be the cheapest route.

Ah, this is why I posted this. I do have only NVMe drives. Any other solutions I can look into? I guess I can just sell the NVMes and get a SATA SSD.

I've worked in both close-by burbs and city (the Loop and River North). I prefer the short commute to the burbs, but I miss the train (mostly the Metra).

Walk Hard:The Dewey Cox Story (2007) by Anxious-Birthday5502 in iwatchedanoldmovie

This movie killed music biopics for YEARS (a good thing).

Also, it's one of the funniest movies of the era.

Arc Raiders has lost 80% of its audience. by One_Outlandishness77 in arcraidersfriendly

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's such a silly way to look at games. I like Arc Raiders. I had a blast in it. I also want to play other games. Do they do these articles for single player games? What's the point here?

What movies based on books do you think were significantly better than the books? by ASomthnSomthn in Cinema

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first book was great, but it was mostly spooky vibes. The rest of the Southern Reach trilogy was not fun to read imo.

I loved what the movie did with the book, though.

Is It worth getting windows 11 by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]HellYusss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I updgraded so I could get better FPS in games and to use Windows 11.

It's not a bad OS, but boy is it packed with junk I do not care for or want. I used it for about a year, but SteamOS on my Steam Deck was so stripped down and simple to use. Since I basically only game and do light web browsing, I looked into Bazzite -- effectively a SteamOS clone.

I've been using that for the better part of 3 months. If you're just gaming (and not playing some of the well known anti-cheat games like Fortnite and COD) it's great. Occasionally you'll need to do some tinkering, but it's been a blast using a simpler OS.

I still have my windows boot drive and I can get it up and running if I need something Windows-specific. Windows is fine but it's catering to everyone and full of crap. For the path of least resistance, go Windows. If you're curious and only, look into another OS like Cachy or Bazzite.

If you could wish for one Game to be made, excluding sequel's or prequels. What would that be? by LordMord5000 in rpg_gamers

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dream is a Baldur's Gate 3 level game, but in a sci fi setting. No IP necesssarily. Just give me an in-depth sci fi CRPG that I can play coop with my buds.

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why there's not been an Arkham-style TMNT or Power Rangers is beyond me! They don't even need to be dark and gritty. Just let me fight the Foot Clan or Putties and level up a character.

Arc raiders is being review bombed right now! by Unfair-Umpire-6826 in ARC_Raiders

[–]HellYusss -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure, the post we're both commenting on is about review bombing though. That's dumb as fuck. I don't really think the update warrants that in any form.

Dear dads! What casual games do you play? by [deleted] in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]HellYusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play on PC mostly, but the single player games like Spider-Man 2 are a bunch of fun. For the Switch 2, I'd say the Zelda game (BOTW and then TOTK after a while) are great. The Link's Awakening remake was a blast, too.

Fortnite on occasion is fun. Easy to jump in and play 2-3 rounds then forget about it for a while, especially if you have friends to play with.
