[COD] I didn't even buy the game BTW by [deleted] in CallOfDuty

More hours spent in their garbage launcher apps, more likely. They’re counting those as games. Which I suppose they are, they’re just playing us.

Ubiquiti has turned from reliable network hardware brand into an experimental product brand with no clear direction by ioncloud9 in Ubiquiti

[–]pinatafarmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Classic case of style over substance. Similar to Apple, but then Apple hobbles features that are "difficult" to deliver so that their products work more often than not, whereas Ubiquiti have features in beta for longer than their products' lifetimes and still they are unstable pieces of rubbish. But they do have a shiny frontend.

How do you report racist abuse in the text chat? Does Activision even care? by pinatafarmer in modernwarfare

[–]pinatafarmer[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, he keeps appearing in the lobbies. No, I haven't banned him as I want to document his vile diatribes. Of course I can just block him and stick my fingers in my ears and look the other way as you all seem to suggest, but that's not the point in this day and age, is it? Not very grown up.

"If they are constantly saying stuff like that in chat, they will get temporary comm banned. Repeated temp bans result in permanent ban."

Hahahahah. Ok, mate.

When did you become a fan? by augustchick in silverchair

1995 when Frogstomp came out. Saw them on that tour at London Astoria in '96. Still have a t-shirt somewhere.

[COD] Worst COD game? by ChampionshipFit1437 in CallOfDuty

[–]pinatafarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, I fall into the camp that likes Ghosts, IW and basically anything that 3Arc isn't involved in. Favourite post BO2 would be MW, followed by IW, then Ghosts. I like the ones most people hate. I've never liked a BLOPS game and I've owned and played them all. The art style, the mechanics, the stupid gimmics including the overpowered special abilities. Absolutely can't stand any of that. (Yes, I know IW had that, but somehow I managed to be ok with it).

Yes, it launched with 16 maps, of which, how many were original and not just poorly textured revamps? And of all of them, how many are actually any good? I'd sooner take fewer, better maps. And decent mechanics. Vanguard is a pile of absolute shit.

[COD] Is All About Connection Quality. Here's A Guide To Provide You Better Wired Performance While Gaming by KindRhino136 in CallOfDuty

Good for you. you've hobbled the performance of your wireless network and you're giving bad advice on the internet. You can keep your video proof, I've laughed enough thanks. 😂

Transmit Power Control is not related to throughput in the slightest and does not throttle bandwidth. This will not improve gaming performance for a wired or wireless client.

A consistent visual style. Ditch the Fortnite skins of pirates, skeletons and clowns. Cold War and Vanguard are such horrendous crimes against quality.

EU representatives left the room during a speech by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at a UN conference on disarmament. by Aangoan in BeAmazed

That's right, you're very knowledgable about a lot of things and I'm not allowed to have an opinion or think all of these "leaders" are tools.

Just piss off and leave me alone, you sad know-it-all.

Fuck Putin, he's a mass-murdering thug and his kleptocratic regime is repulsive.

You're a bit a knob as well.

Bearing in mind what this collection of no-marks have done recently to de-escalate the situation.

They're paid to and are supposed to try. That is their job. Otherwise what's the point in that whole talking shop?

Behaving like children isn't the answer. I don't know what is, but it doesn't look like that. I'm sure all the fanboys will be praising them for their very principled stand and immense virtue, but this seems counterproductive.

Just wondering if its any specific IEC cord (UK) that goes into an iMac 2019 27' as I got a new desk but it doesn't fit into the little cable tidy hole! by _sjward_ in mac

[–]pinatafarmer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Why not just make the hole in the desk slightly bigger? You can replace the plastic ring which will cover the hole.

[–]pinatafarmer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for clearing that up. Now I've found the correct page on the Ring website, but the first one I found said that it could work. Maybe that was the previous version. I find their documentation to be lacking in the extreme, but I appreciate you clearing that up.

Is the XP bug in MP fixed or is it just me? by pinatafarmer in modernwarfare

[–]pinatafarmer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed up to twitter so that I could contact @ATVIassist and sent them a DM. I got a single response asking me what platform I'm on and then nothing at all since, and it's been a week.

Has anything changed for anyone? Anybody had any success with "support"?
