    I wanna talk about Lootboxes

    PC player base excluded. Because why would anyone purchase a box when you can just use a trainer and open unlimited number of silver boxes for free. The odds are that the same orcs will drop in silver as in gold with a minor difference in drop rates/quality. And that's why I love PCs.

    How do you deal with wasps in your house?

    This is the best thing to catch wasps. I don't know if it's available in your country but you can catch as many of them as there is room in this thing. Or you can also make one yourself using some bottles. https://www.jurana.com/media/catalog/product/p/a/past_za_mrc_es_insekte_1.jpg

    Poll: How Do Multi-Lingual People Think?

    I speak quite a few languages (3) and understand and can read one more but I can't speak it (without butchering it). I think in the language I use at the time. Translating in the head is really hard and confusing as it takes more time to think of an answer and how to translate it. It's just...

    The slowest game beginnings ever?

    Max Payne 3, Half-Life 1. These two games have the longest intros. Ok you get to move in Half-Life but that small rail-car thingy is what 5 meters long? And Max Payne 3 is almost no gameplay at all. It would be a decent action movie though (if they cut out that half hour of gameplay it has)...

    Next-Gen CPUs Will Likely Require Windows 10

    People you're missing the point (or the article is wrong). The statement goes for SOC systems and I highly doubt that normal computers will use SOC chips. As for IOT devices and phones... I don't really care what OS they run on.

    Oculus Rift Will Cost More Than $350, Says Founder

    Actually I'm looking at it from another perspective (pun not intended). I would use it like my screen but the image would move with my head. And I can switch from one eye to the other seamlessly so it could work like it works in my normal life. At least that's my hope and I have yet to test this...

    Oculus Rift Will Cost More Than $350, Says Founder

    Too rich for my blood. I would go for it if it was 300? but at the current estimated price and including our VAT it will push it waaay beyond that (probably around 500?). The problem is that I don't see on one eye (long story short... I see on both eyes but my brain is wired to only use one...

    Your Windows 10 Experiences

    I don't know what games you tried but Splinter Cell - Blacklist works fine here. OT: Works better than the myriad of bugs I found on win8 (yes I'm really anal about everything including random errors in event viewer). Below bugs are from a clean install of win10. Still has a load of bugs...

    Should my daughter visit her mother who is in jail?

    Even my two years old kid wouldn't make that assumption so don't fret.

    Sony Claims Pricey SD Cards Produce "Less Electrical Noise"

    Bad example. Most audio cards don't support Dolby and other standards even if they do have 7.1 and optical out. Also most of my boards (mind that I buy 150?+ boards and even costlier PSUs) emit a slight hiss that can be distinctly heard when listening to something that doesn't have a lot of bass...

    USB wire

    Hi guys Since I can't remember of any place I'd get this kind of answer I hope I can get it here. I have recently purchased some USB connectors to make my own USB cables for my quad and my phone. Since the connectors are dirt cheap and a USB cable to charge my phone usually costs an arm and a...

    The Funniest Star Wars: The Force Awakens Memes And Fan Videos

    I have a silly question... I don't own a lightsaber (well duh) but I do own a sword. A sword has some weight on the blade since it's made from metal. A lightsabre would have no such weight and I can assure anyone that you can hold the hilt just fine and it wouldn't slip. Heck I never dropped...

    Poll: How often do you masturbate?!

    Nah. That deal was already made. The new limit is 50 now. :) Back OT: I do it often but it depends on my wife (yeah a shocker that even married people do this). If she's tired I just leave her be and help myself.

    Jim Sterling Plays Terrible Game, Angry Dev Reposts Video With Response UPDATE 2

    Actually we do. They admitted it in a topic on Steam Discussions when they posted the first video reply but they removed it now. Edit: I'm blind. Found it now. http://steamcommunity.com/app/329950/discussions/4/613940477857791275/ This is the first part in MY new series Review the...
