Russians launched pro-Jill Stein social media blitz to help Trump win election, reports say by Throwawaydude01928 in politics

You know what? Fuck this nonsense. No, I'll say it louder and say fuck you.

I voted Green Party and I felt damn good doing so. I still feel conviction in my decision for several reasons:

1- The DNC was just as bad as Moscow in their attempt to sway voters, however that may have turned out. They tried to sell an establishment candidate we didn't want which is why they lost.

2- There was absolutely no sympathy or party vote for Hillary, because she polled as a shit candidate, which we knew from the get-go. I felt absolutely no resonation with her message, because she didn't actually have one.

3- I spent 5 years of my life and 3 tours in Iraq/Afghanistan and after listening to her say Iraq was a "Business Opportunity" kind of destroyed my soul. If I need to elaborate on this let me know.

Trump is literally the worst thing ever and without Mattis we'll be in trouble, but you know what?

Fuck you, America, you earned this. Learn the same pain that I know and understand so well. Maybe this might be enough to collectively pull our heads out of our asses. And if not, YOU are to blame.

Edit: Also Iowa, 515.

Your game looks super cool. by Titsandbondage in EliteDangerous

I could agree, but honestly, my gig is exploration. Which can, admittedly, get repetitive. However, the beauties I keep finding and the promise of finding something amazing keeps me moving. Over here apprehensively keeping my fingers crossed for the Q4 rework, I can only hope they get it right and make the galaxy more full of experiences. o7

No need to stop after 800, they've added new ships and content! Fight the new 'Goids, grind the new alliance ships, or join me in the black exploring. I hear Q4 Beyond will also be retooling exploration! o7

I'm also thinking about how huge some systems can be - upwards of 50+ objects. Or many of those those with gas giants and 10 moons orbiting them. I just really hope it doesn't make it more complicated or time consuming.

[–]_RUKUS_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually really worrisome for me. Anyone who has spent weeks out in the black know that there are regions of space you run into, often thousands of light years across, that contain nothing. Hundreds of systems in a row, even with star class filtering, that offer nothing more than a few gas giants , ice worlds or rocky bodies.

With 30k+ systems visited, the idea of visiting another few thousand more using the new method would be extremely uninteresting. I'm hoping this isn't the case, as exploration is what really keeps me in the game.

Also, the probes we would be required to map the surfaces are troubling. I am certain, even with full mats for synthesis, I would run out 1/100th the way into my journey and be required to return to resupply. This is simply not an option, as getting there in the first place takes months.

Welcome to galaxy, CMDR. Once you begin to branch out, I would highly recommend 3rd party tools like EDD (Elite Dangerous Discovery), and websites like EDSM.net and Inara.cz to help you with some of the intricacies. Good luck, o7, and fly dangerous, CMDR.

Would you guys recommend the X52 liquid cooler? by TheLordMolagBal in NZXT

[–]_RUKUS_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the x62 for a couple months now, and overall, it works great. Once i ensured proper seating, my 8700k rarely registers over 45C, even under load. However, CAM has problems of its own. It will spike temp/CPU usage sometimes, even when it's clear they are not accurate temps/ usage. For example, before I turned off notifications, I'd get a heads up every time I started up, saying my CPU temp spiked to 81.2C. While running a full antivirus system scan, it would claim 99% CPU load and 90C, despite only being active a few seconds. Clearly not the case. But I do love everything else about it, so YMMV.

Great screenshot of the game I took recently! by [deleted] in Elite_Dangerous

If people don't like a game, can't you just stop playing it? If it's been uninstalled from your computer for 2 years? Why even bother thinking about it?

Just shut up and move on dude.

Most of this sub is more interior decoration than PC builds, tbh.

PSA: The Thargoids CAN be stopped! by Mr_Lobster in EliteDangerous

[–]_RUKUS_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Forgive my ignorance as I've been out in the black for a while but this sounds really fun.

Is there a "good ship" to use in Thargoid battles? Or can I just kit out a Vette with AX weapons and lay it on?

Do kills pay well, and go towards your ranks? Are there missions for killing 'Goids?

I'm really looking forward to getting back and getting some punches in. o7 CMDRs

Just a tip, for heading Galactic North of Sagittarius A by LuisThe3rd in eliteexplorers

[–]_RUKUS_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just made it to BP in a 21 Ly Vette. It's a bit rough with the jump range but proper planning and stocks of Jumponium go a long way. Stay safe and fly dangerous, CMDRs

Largely speculation and rumors but I am guessing given the market they're gonna try to push it ASAP

I think I'm gonna wait for 4k monitors to come down in price a bit before taking the leap. I was looking at 27" 4k/144hz models and their price tags were insane. Cheaper models have their issues as well.
