I like how this is the future version of getting a send-off by the USS Constitution

Nice. You got a good dad joke here. Enjoy your up-toot!

I got a good laugh on this take on the FF XI experience. And then I laughed again when I saw this was an AI image of a 20 year old game.

The best DMs are the ones that can adapt and come up with stuff on the fly. The only guaranteed thing is that the players are idiots and will try and punch a NPC in the tavern on day 1… throwing your well planned story out the window.

Yes, your escrow can go up that much if your property tax, school tax, or in some cases insurance had a sudden jump in value or changes in what can be claimed. It varies by area and loan, but isn’t unheard of.

I get the joke, but did the person writing this have a stroke halfway through writing it?

I’m trying to remember when I last had a real “free trial” and not these “give me your credit card subscription scams”. A bonafide “try our thing for real” situation made me buy it.

Free food or drinks for sure. Maybe a newspaper or magazine when I was a kid?

While I don’t follow the current eSports Call of Modern War Battle shooter game, I believe they may be making fun of certain team players of said game who called themselves “Lethal Company”… but now this name is more commonly associated with a different online multiplayer indie game that is more popular.

Although I could be wrong. I am not an AI

Gyro support on XInput has been on PC gamers wishlist for awhile.

XInput is a solid standard (especially if you look at the state of gaming in the pre 2000’s) but it is in need of an update…

Yeah, this is a pretty sad bait for Internet points. The AI BOTs are getting lazy.

Official company policy being printed and posted on the refrigerator… totally legit. SMH

If you can get any kind of multiscan monitor you’re usually set for computers of that era. Connectors can be handled by passive adaptors if needed, but it is actually the refresh rate that is not always supported by the common VGA CRT (specifically the 15 kHz horizontal refresh rate).

Multiscan monitors had various names depending on the manufacturer. MultiSync, DiamondTron, SyncMaster, etc… so if you can get any CRT with 15 kHz support, you’re set.

While Crystal Dynamics didn’t specify which content it’s referring to, it’s speculated that it could be the animalistic depiction of Pacific Island natives in Tomb Raider 3, who are implied to be cannibals.

Like the fictional Indiana Jones style villages? Or the real life North Sentinel Island Sentinelese? I’m scratching my head too…

I can’t wait to have TherionArms at my party!

Jack of All Trades, Master of None

Anybody know the name of this character? “Six Shooter Cat” or something?

Oh, thanks for the reminder that this just came out! Been looking forward to the sequel

Just stand up! This is really Goro from Mortal Kombat goofing around.

Always loved the Warhammer 40k figures and really wanted to get into it (but I know it’s a pretty deep rabbit-hole I can’t jump into at this time).

These two look awesome and can’t wait to see what the end result is going to be. I’m curious if those are from a 3D print or base figure from the shop?

Yes, it’s an old one… but I always get a smile seeing this meme.

Aside from the boring story I wasn’t impressed by the 48fps and optical abberations of water when compared to real life. I don’t believe we “figured that shit out” yet.
