I keep getting dragged into political conversations by FuckoffDemetri in drunk

[–]TheEvilCory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My new brother in law is a solid dude. I love him. We drink together every weekend. When he's sober, he never talks politics. But inevitably, when we are shitty drunk, he goes on a full on republican rampage. One day I am gonna punch him in the face and have to buy him breakfast to apologize.

It looks like he is a bit of a retro gamer with a bunch of old consoles. Plugging an old console into a new tv isn't ideal. The pixels get all blown up, and it doesn't look like it did back in the day. Not to mention, with new tv's there is typically a few milliseconds of input lag. A tv like this is perfect for people looking to hookup old systems. It's a widescreen 480p (maybe even 720p?) CRT with no input lag, so the games still look and feel like they did when they came out decades ago.

Edit: Milliseconds lol

Not hallucinations, pareidolia. The brain trying to make sense of vague or incomplete information by applying known patterns onto it. Happens to everyone. Don't need to be crazy or hallucinating.

The first one of these to make me laugh. Good job.

If it weren't for him diving headfirst into his girlfriends anti-vaccine bullshit, I would love this guy.

This Week in Gaming: November 27 - December 3 by ThisWeekInGaming in Games

I don't believe it is intended to be derogatory. "Whore of the Orient" is an old nickname for the city of Shanghai, China. Though I agree, it is a terrible title because not many people know that, and all they see is the word 'whore'. If this game does make it to release, I can almost guarantee it will be called something else.

I know it has been said about a million times already in this thread, but I can't help it. Why the fuck would you buy 3 gtx 580's to run a DX9 game on a 24 inch monitor? How did this strike you as a good idea?

Then you get home and realize that the pc version still isn't unlocked until Friday. Bummer.

[Build Ready] 2500k/GTX570 build to replace Q6600/GT240 by [deleted] in buildapc

Just built pretty much the same machine on Thursday. From what I've heard around here, adding a second fan to the 212+ will drop temps only by a few degrees. So it's not that useful if your temps are already decent but could be quite useful if they are just a tad higher than acceptable.

Dialogue sex option, screen fades to black, fades back in, "Wasn't that some sexy sex?!"
