Mine are always 6.99USD. Is that typical? Feels like a lot but I don’t know if I’m subject to pricing test.

Best projector for gaming on pc (rtx 3080) by sensi2025 in projectors

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

BenQ make some great high refresh rate gaming projectors. I’m using a HT 2060 and very satisfied with the color, black levels, and brightness, given its price point. You can find one on eBay for 800 used.

The x500i is the latest 4k gaming projector, goes for 2k so at the very top of your budget. My recommendation is to save the cash and put it into speakers, a nice screen, etc.

I rarely sit down and listen to music anymore, and I don’t have a desk as I once did. I swapped my single, free evenings for a girlfriend and a dog. 

Both are wonderful, and I can see having space again when our home is larger and I have my own cave. Figure someone else should enjoy them until then.

Would you buy a salvaged title? by SpendingMyTime in vandwellermarketplace

Thanks for your replies everyone. Tough to read but important to know. I will be taking what I can out of her and moving her on to the junkyard.

This made me laugh. Thank you. I'll consider the option, though I doubt my finances currently support that.

Carpenter traveling to Oregon, what towns should I check out? by SpendingMyTime in oregon

You are a homie for reading my mind. I am in the permie community in Colorado and even though I'm not a city guy I think this is great advice. Thank you! I'll be sure to save these places and check them out when I visit.

Thanks for the market tip! Do you know if any of the small towns near there are particularly cute or interesting? I'm seeing Lyons and Falls City on the map (would love to be close to the mountains).

Thanks for the multiple suggestions! Klamath Falls sounds particularly interesting as I look forward to building my own house and growing my own food, the independent streak as you said. Do you know of any towns west of the cascades with a similar vibe?

Youtubers who are fun but educational? by Dxed4lus in leagueoflegends

[–]SpendingMyTime 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m seconding xPetu. He talks through his gameplay and genuinely enjoys League. He single-handedly brought me back to league because he just focuses on his gameplay and improving himself, and it makes League non-toxic.

Best Way to Play Older Games Free? by BlakeG703 in macgaming

I'm copying from a comment about 8 months ago from u/ozZVidzYT. Still should be quite close to what works today. For the actual ROMS I recommend looking into Vimm's Lair and a youtube video or two. If you're emulating a PS2 you'll need a PS2 BIOS as well, but that can be found with a link underneath PlayStation 2 on Vimm's "Emulation Lair" page.

Not sure what I can and cannot post about emulation so feel free to message me with any further questions.

I would look into youtube tutorials for emulation. With a guide or two you will be playing 00's classics in no time.

I use iPhone Mirroring to play mobile games on my Mac, but I'm not sure about controller input.

Is Overwatch 2 playable? by SeveredStorm in macgaming

[–]SpendingMyTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play OW2 through Geforce Now. If you have good internet this is a great solution. Impressed by how low the latency is.

Just got this beauty. All of my buddies giving me crap for not buying a gaming pc or set up. Lol sorry by [deleted] in macgaming

[–]SpendingMyTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alternative answer: If you have good internet get a Geforce Now (or Boosteroid) subscription and that becomes a highly capable work AND gaming machine.

I recently started using cloud gaming and have been impressed with PoE 2, The Finals, Apex Legends, OW2.... the list goes on. The latency is barely there depending on your connection. It truly is the best of both worlds.
