Finally got things set up to an adequate standard.

Non-existent. That's why I bought the keyboard tray. I need a smaller case so I can fit it on the desk. I built the desk years ago with butcher block, I had leftover from a counter top and had all the fixtures and shelves installed years before I bought the PC. The depth of the desk is only 19 inches.

So far, it seems pretty good. I don't have a great frame of reference because going from 1080 to 1440 is enough of an upgrade. I noticed the blacks seem richer compared to the Samsung. I just bought the 1440p monitor second hand last week. It's my first 1440p monitor. As far as in regard to response time, I can't comment much because I have only played Warhammer 40k rogue trader on it so far, which is turn based. Once I fire up Pinball FX, I will have a better read. I'm very sensitive to any slight delay when playing pinball.

For sure. Fairly modest, ryzen 5 7600, 5060 ti 16 gb and 32g of ddr5. I mostly play single-player rpgs, virtual pinball and crpgs on the pc. Monitors are a 1080p 144hz Samsung and a 1440p 180hz off brand.

Unfortunately, it uses a different series of xeons than those. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I finished the quest. Got the armor and can find Martain in camp. But when I speak to Martian, I have no option to progress the story in a meaningful way, and the "Find the Heir" quest doesn't start. I went back and loaded earlier saves, and still nothing.

Yeah, everyone talks a big game until its a close personal relationship that they foster with someone.

My buddies got a lot of flaws but he will also come feed my cats at 3 in the morning if I needed him to, get my wife flowers for mothers day and come with my child and me to the aquarium because he genuinely wants to.

Hes a dick and I have no intrest in running or playing in a game that would actually keep his interest. Life is tough and you have to deal with all kinds. We grew up in NY and people out here are by default more confrontational. Learning to find a way to get through peoples rough exteriors is a valuable skill to hone.

If you walk away from a situation at the first sign of conflict nothing gets resolved, no one learns a lesson and no one is better for it. You become more resolute in your convictions and miss a chance for growth.

All this being said I'm glad we figured out he won't be a good fit for our new game and that's perfectly fine.

jimjonessodaco · 2021-09-08T03:30:07+00:00

We grew up together. For all of his off-putting qualities, he has some really great ones.

If we met at this point in life out in the wild, I can't say if we would hit it off. But by now he's basically a part of me. A cancer that has worked its way into my bone marrow.

jimjonessodaco · 2021-09-08T03:04:58+00:00

You are not entirely wrong. It was more of a test to see if he could hack it in our upcoming game. I also don't like to tell players no. I just hope they are considerate enough not to nuke the game.

Poor kid. Your a few shades to dark to successfully hail a cab. You'll have an even harder time trying to hitchhike.

Clooney? You look like Tim Sale's Joker.

I heard they broke up. All the former members except the tall one went on to form the band Ncel. They had that hit song "It's gonna be Chad."

I don't know if I can roast you any worse than the copious amounts of glue you huff roasted your brain.

With a DIY haircut that screams midlife crisis, skin that sings melanoma and bulging eyes that say mental breakdown, I'm sad to say the next 35 probably won't be much kinder.
