    Post your PC builds here!

    A good question, and as far as I know, the answer nowadays is "It depends". It seems that lower end systems are actually cheaper to buy premade, while higher-end still benefits from DIY discount. EDIT: Oh, yeah, I forgot, GPU crisis. Could be cheaper to buy premade regardless of your price...

    New letter from the chairman: 2 million backers.

    I was part of the original 1M backers, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

    ... So, latest intel is that the admins are away. Post silly things while we can get away with it!

    Searching for the dirtiest number, is it 69? We'll hear good ol' NaffNaff shout "Nein!" _"The dirtiest number is 33" _"Two lecherous sideways bums, y'see" Who would dare to disagree with this friend of mine?

    Okey guys, I'm finally going to win this thread. So as a closing post, here is a star potato:

    Need help finding "peaceful" multiplayer pc game

    If the issue with 3D is camera angels, I think any first person game would suffice, as camera angels are mainly problematic with 3rd person views. Anyhow, I'd also go with Minecraft. While it has some blocky monsters, I've played on servers where parents brought their young kids along. I think...

    Anyone know where ship purchasing got moved to?

    So, as most of you probably know, ship purchasing with aUEC was originally said to be in 3.0 or 3.1, but this was with the old schedule system, before this whole quarterly roadmap. I can't seem to find it on the current roadmap, unless it's "Economy polish 3.2", which I doubt. (It's such a...

    EM, IR Ratings

    Okey, this is just a wild guess, and I'm probably wrong in several things, but: Longer waves tend to penetrate better and travel further, if my wlan router is any indication at least. IR is generally pretty short waves, 700-1000 nm. EM, I think, would refer to 1mm and above. So, I'm guessing...

    Thats embarrassing.

    You misspelt "Squardon". But especially for "I like to drink beer", there are so many different ways you could phrase that: "Beer is liquid bread, it's good for you!" "Beer is the drink for me" "Beer - the final frontier!" "Malts above everything else!" "Beer is my goddess" "Beer is my Goddess"...

    Thats embarrassing.

    Yeah, I don't trust any password manager that either A) Is closed source, so I can't audit what they do with my data B) Is open source, which makes it easier for hackers to crack I guess I can share what I do: I got a bunch of documents lying around, nothing out of the ordinary. One of those...

    Thats embarrassing.

    3 factor identification? You're way too trusting. I secure all my accounts behind an Email, that is secured by a phone, which is held by my neighbor, who is trained in martial arts and is locked away in a bunker, to which I have the only key, which I melted down to a solid bar of metal and will...

    Role comparison/practicality of the new Origin 100 series

    Oh, I just want to point out, that if you’re attacking something like freight hauling Taurus, it's likely going to go in one direction at max afterburn and decouple. This will greatly reduce the difference between the manouverability of it and faster ships. Then the fight would be akin to a...

    @Blind_Owl jokes

    That's not true at all! For example: Why did @Blind Owl cross the road? This side ran out of beer! Oh, wait... God damn it!

    Retribution. I won't even leave the dock, not once in the whole year. I'll just spend my time wandering around that mammoth, exploring every inch.

    Star Citizen ships sale - Origin 100i (video)

    That ship DOES look sleek. It also seems to also have some indoor space... if you ask me, it seems kinda crawly like the early Titan, and we know what happened with that: Size increase. Is it too early to theorize that 100i will get a size buff?

    My new workphone shoots lasers!

    I got no idea, my employer got this for me. I'm still trying to get good footage of the laser cannon in action, but it turns out that laser beams are mostly invisible to naked eye. That's a bummer. So I need like a smoke machine or something

    My new workphone shoots lasers!

    I hadn't gone through the specs sheet too diligently, so imagine my surprise when I unbox the thing and this is what I see: Now I kinda want MobiGlas to shoot lasers as well. Last resort and all that. P.S. please don't ask me what kind of line of work I am in.

    Forget the GPU, it has Cherry MX PSU! The more you hammer your keyboard, the more power it generates, allowing for higher overclocks and reduced electricity bills.
