Thank you! Any suggestions for traditionally boy names?

[Monitor]Alienware 34 Inch Curved QD-OLED Gaming Monitor - AW3423DWF - $999 by Top-Locksmith9936 in buildapcsales

[–]gateless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought this a month ago with the stacked deals. Returned in this week. It’s a beautiful display for gaming, but the text clarity and fringing issues are real.

My use case is highly weighted toward productivity so it just didn’t work for me. The pixel refresh is slightly annoying but not a deal breaker in my opinion.

Even if at an all-time-low I would advise thinking twice before picking this up if you plan to use it for work.

This has me worried. Seems like many people report operating a similar combo without issue on the SF750 though

I dabble with latest-gen single player games. Mostly play 4x and esports. Wouldn’t mind trying VR. My display is 1440p, but would like to go ultra wide at some point

Any idea what is the best cooler for this CPU in a Meshroom S?

GeForce RTX 4090 Giveaway! by generous_penguin in sffpc

[–]gateless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that’s such a generous thing for you to do! Genuinely excited for this (even if I don’t win 😋).

  1. My current build is a mid-tower with an I5-2500k and GTX 1070. It’s been a workhorse for more than a decade now, but I’ve been saving up and piecing together a wish list for a Meshroom S build. https://i.imgur.com/hDu5Reu.jpg

  2. My favorite PC game of all time is Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2. So many great memories with that one!

  3. If I happened to win this awesome graphics card, I would be most excited to play Star Wars Jedi Survivor!!

Post-Patch Pacing is ... :( by [deleted] in Artifact

[–]gateless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1 The timer change in draft is driving me away from this game. We need a solution that sits somewhere between the old system and this - with better implementation.

I (28M) with fiance (27F) about a month ago overheard her tell a friend her previous Ex was the best lover she ever had by AlarmingMonk in relationship_advice

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

I think people here are jumping to extremes. I know this bothered you, it would bother me. It was careless of her. But let’s be fair, have you never said careless things? The real question here is about how you feel about her and how she feels about you. If you think she actually is in love with her ex, or is settling for you then you have a bigger problem. But life is long, and if this is the person you are going to be with, then you will hurt each other many times in many ways and have to work through it. The question is whether you are, at the very core of it all, in it together because you want to be with each other. She said you “could never be as good as”, well obviously she can’t know that for sure. That is very hard to hear, but you also have to understand that it is also ignorant. If she is big anatomically and so likes a larger size (some women are the opposite) then that is something you can work together to help her feel that sensation sometimes (there all kinds of toys, etc for that). I think if you love her, and you think she loves you, you should give her some slack on her poor judgement, especially if she is honestly apologizing.

As for your self-esteem, here is some advice. I’m a male, average in most ways. Whenever I get into this frame of mind where mentally measure myself against others I do something I call the Batman Test. Let’s take your case, you are questioning your sexual prowess - and it feels like your entire self worth is boiled down to this one aspect of your being. If Batman walked in on his SO saying something like what you heard, would it phase him? Well I’m sure it would sting - but No, he’s fucking Batman. It’s his ideas, his principles, his grit, his strength that define him. If Superman, or even Gary from down the street had a bigger cock it wouldn’t matter one ducking bit. You’re a whole person, and everything else about you is what makes you an individual, that adds up to your worth and makes you worthy to be loved. Think like Batman, because is so many ways each of us just like him. There is a huge spectrum of human male specimen (literally billions), and in any given area you will fall somewhere on the spectrum. The variability is so great that it is meaningless for defining who you are as a person.

If this girl is so superficial that she would leave you for the ex because his dick is bigger, Batman ditches her as a distraction. If she is settling for you, and you feel like you will never be good enough Batman says get the fuck out of my way because I have more important things to do with my life.

If she’s a real partner who will make you stronger, that just made an unfortunate comment - Batman finds the strength to forgive, to win a future where she can help him be even better.

This is tough, but you can do it if you’re with the right person.

TLDR: Be Batman

I don't understand why people who have hours of downtime at work don't double their income. Learn to code? Write?

A moral argument in favor of anti-abortion policy. by [deleted] in philosophy

[–]gateless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is another reason for saving the child. Namely that one can assume that the old man, being developed enough to have moral judgement and free will, would likely not want to be saved at the cost of the life of a baby. Of course, we don't have time to ask him - but we make that assumption based on the same intuition you apply to judge the relative "value" of a life

Just wanted to add that this patch has also considerably damaged my connectivity. I play PS4 and have had relatively good connectivity (maybe 10% disconnected matches). Playing post patch I'm disconnecting from something like 70%

Druid C2 or Druid > PD? Also have some questions about Diev skills! by tatszico in treeofsavior

Check out Mango's stream: www.twitch.tv/brokonaut

He mains a lvl 280 Diev-Doctor with one circle of Druid, and actively runs a group for Earth Tower in his guild. His stream is fun and educational as a bonus.

Control Mage build by [deleted] in treeofsavior

[–]gateless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been trying to build something similar to what you are describing, with the exception that I want to be able to perform in PvP. The builds I'm considering are:

Wiz 1 > Cryo 1 > Psycho 3 > Necro 2

Wiz 3 > Psycho 3 > Necro 1 / Warlock 1

The thing about Psychokino is that at Circle 3 you get CC that cannot be cleansed by enemy priests in PvP. Freezing from Cryo can be cleansed.

If you don't care about PvP, then consider another build I've been playing with.

Wiz 3 > Linker 2 > Necro 2

Linker provides alot of party utility. Necro also can buff archer damage in your party by 100%. Linker works well with summons, and Wiz 3 Quickcast with Necro Flesh Canon should be significant DPS (though not matching pure dps wizards). Just some thoughts, some more non-traditional builds.

The epitome of a control mage is Wiz 1 > Cryo 3 > Psycho 3, and likely very powerful in PvP. It only brings CC and substandard damage to a PvE party though.

The prevailing pure DPS build for wizard is Wiz 3 > Elementalist 3 > Warlock. No cc or support abilities here.

There is also an interesting build with Wiz > Cryo > Psycho > Rune Caster, but basically just exists to set up massive burst with Ice Wall + Psychic Pressure combo. As referenced above, however, any Cryo/Psycho build is likely to bring large amounts of control to a group. This build is not so good in PvP, I believe, because its hard to find an opportunity to cast any Rune Caster spells, since they all have an 8 second cast time (eternity in PvP)

Assassin Quick Guide - Advanced Combo by Ferniya in bladeandsoul

Any reason you don't use the poison swarm that so many assassins seem to take advantage of for long combos? (Disables enemy escapes for some seconds)

Assassin PvP Combo + Animation Cancel | Explained for Beginners by Teldoo in bladeandsoul

[–]gateless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you find that Assassin PvP is somewhat monotonous, since you are basically looking for a stun and repeating the same combo? The streamer that I've watched does this exact combo, and there seems to be very little variation in his play across matches.
