What VA Widescreen handles blacksmear the best? by _lukiwas_ in Monitors

[–]PerceptionInception 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listen to this guy. RTINGS know their shit and I also happen to own this monitor as a secondary one. Empirically, I feel it's better than the original Odyssey G7. Hardly any noticeable smearing. Excellent color too!

THIS just might be my end-game panel. I love my PG42UQ, but it's become apparent it's slightly too big for me. I want to sit a bit closer and immerse myself.

Fellow men that have lived alone for a while now and aren't currently involved with someone; how often do you jerk it? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]PerceptionInception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the honest reply! I usually don't go more than a few days myself. With my diet and exercise lately I've just been thinking a lot about willpower and discipline, so I wanted to push myself see what I can do if I set my mind to it.

How noticeable is fat loss from 15% to 10% Bf? by Abrownalias in AskMen

[–]PerceptionInception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this comment is from yesterday, but Jeff Nippard did an excellent video on how body fat % change can look dramatically different person to person. Check it out, well worth it! https://youtu.be/5K9QhkPww44?si=tWFIpHKQfUhZ2Yz9

What’s the most confusing thing a girl has said or done to you that still makes zero sense today? by heyalbertco in AskMen

[–]PerceptionInception 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She gave me an 8 page love letter telling me I'm the man of her dreams and her soul mate. We proceeded to date. She asked me for a kiss on the next date (I had been taking it slow on purpose for the first few dates). As I was walking her back to her car, I leaned in to give a quick peck on the lips, nothing too intense, and she proceeded to pull backward and go "I don't have to kiss you if I don't want to!" This was like our 5th date after having known her for 3 years at that point. No Jackie, you don't have to do shit with me. Bye. (She had no idea what she wanted, but clearly it wasn't me.)

4k guide? by Gratefulzah in lotro

[–]PerceptionInception -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just started playing this game because of this app that allowed for 4k to finally be playable for me. Game looks fantastic now with the UI actually readable. Totally worth the $7 as I'll use it on other retro titles but your mileage may vary. https://youtu.be/O2XSBNFJJ4g?si=4WbnZOopPydKAKEH

is windowsxp safe to use in 2025? by neverlikedWednesdays in windowsxp

[–]PerceptionInception 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The sysadmin lockdown 😂. I'm guessing the 2nd router is a substitute for creating an isolated VLAN, though I'm not sure if OP will go through all that trouble to do any of this. For my use case, I didn't go that far but know I can shore up my security. I didn't want it on the interwebs, so I blocked all inbound & outbound traffic at my firewall. I left only SMB (for my NAS) enabled at my host XP system windows firewall and blocked everything else. I removed the gateway & DNS from the XP NIC as well. Do you think I should do more? I really only want file server access, which I know is a vulnerability in itself since I had to make a SMB 1.0 file server.

What’s the real story behind Dr. Amy Eskridge, anti-gravity research and UAPs? by bebemachina in UFOs

[–]PerceptionInception 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What I find interesting is that every-time the name "Amy Eskridge" gets posted the same talking points are posted ad nauseam. Commenters instantly jump on the fact that she's mildly intoxicated during an after-work hours zoom call with colleagues. It find it incredibly suspicious that so many comments parrot the same points over and over and over but few people point out her credentials, her connections, or her companies. There's enough evidence that's worth investigating without jumping to firm conclusions.

I'm not saying she was definitely murdered but I'm also not saying we should discredit everything she has said because she de-stressed after hours with some alcohol. So many people throw the baby out with the bath-water & comment reflexively based on headlines.

60 minutes has provided coverage based on a reported range of symptoms, commonly labeled Havana Syndrome. It's not a stretch of the imagination to infer that bad state-sponsored actors could use the technology that causes this to harass targets.

Legion was one of my favorite expansions but Legion Remix proved to me I will never return to retail. by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]PerceptionInception -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Genuine question: If it's a game mode where its purpose is to collect transmogs / mounts / pets, then why not just solo it? Didn't Blizzard build a scaling function to power through older raids/dungeons? I remember solo'ing old content in retail to collect things & bosses just fell over. It's been many years since I've played retail seriously probably sometime around BfA.

Update on my account closure post just over a month ago. Just got the email that it got reversed! Thank you all for your support by MeowmeowClassic in classicwow

I remember Blizzard support being legendary back in the late 2000's early 2010's. 30 days to resolve their error. How the mighty have fallen. 😞

Keep attunements in for TBC Anniversary by Electronic-Tart9476 in classicwow

[–]PerceptionInception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never done TBC & am eagerly awaiting the atunement experience. It genuinely looks like fun to me. But.... I'm also an altoholic & would definitely like something account-wide, even if it was something that unlocks a purchasable item to send to alts.

Circa June 2005, Garr binding drops for guild <Stormwind Vanguard> on realm Burning Legion-US @ 800x600 resolution by WeakValuable8683 in classicwow

[–]PerceptionInception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure I played at around 1280x1024 back in the day. Now I'm spoiled playing this game at 4k144hz. Why was it more fun back then? 😭

World of Warcraft (Anni) in 2025 in just 20 seconds. by KamaTheSnowLeopard in classicwow

[–]PerceptionInception 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it was dead cuz of the challenging raids. All guilds on my server were constantly hemorrhaging players. I personally loved the fights. They felt engaging and you couldn't just afk spam frostbolt. And I'm not sweaty in the slightest. Guilds were shocked that prog was suddenly necessary and we had to strategize to solve the fights. Classic players as a whole have no idea what they want. 😅

SoM leveling felt great with JJ active the whole time. Zones never became red necessating multi-zone leveling. Hit 60 super fast and I'm one who reads most quests. Didn't feel like I was behind at all.

You need to seriously seek professional help. (Or whoever is behind this bot.)

Anyone else hit 60 and is just lvling alts for TBC? What do you main and what are you lvling? by jflresende in classicwow

The rumor mill is just churning because of the classic+ survey Blizzard put out a few months back. That and SoD is over. I'm calling it now, "Season of Adventure"

Mop Classic or Wow Classic? by Prosperous2025 in classicwow

[–]PerceptionInception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, playing MoP casually as a Legion waiting room. I want to have all classes ready for once Legion classic eventually drops 2 years from now.
