I literally explain in two paragraphs how much I think the chests will annoy people and how they ruin a fun part of RPGs. I also put the annoying chests in the headline.

Can we go back to having bezels? This shit is counter-productive 

Not to challenge your cosplay cred or anything, but that’s definitely Katniss, not Bobbie.

Or maybe things are much harder and complicated than you know?

The Kinja ads completely destroy what is otherwise a really nicely designed and well-written review. I counted 8, middle-of-the-content ads, 2 or 3 of which were incredibly distracting autoplaying videos. Come on guys... I really want to support long-form content like this, but I’m really close to enabling adblock…

So a Pirate King came to be by driving loyalty from other pirates, and taxing their profits? Isn’t.....isn’t that...the literal expectation and definition of a Pirate King?

“Dear Dr. Nerdlove ... I’m thinking about breaking up with my boyfriend because he’s distant and seems uninterested in me. The way I see it, I’ve got two options: 1. sit down with him and have an open, face-to-face conversation. 2. Write him a note, use google to translate it to Filipino, and then hand-convert that to…

On a somewhat almost related note, we bought a car two weeks ago and I was shocked to learn we could put the down payment on a credit card. Talk about a no-brainer. Yeah, I’ll take the rewards! We had the cash, so it’s already there to pay off the card. Free money.

I love it when you guys post these razor deals. I still haven’t depleted my supply from the last deal.

The PROBLEM there is that you don’t actually get 5%, because when you spend that credit balance on Amazon, you aren’t getting 5% on those purchases, that why you should ALWAYS take your award balance with Amazon Visa as a statement credit.

Jesus, man, tell us how you really feel, in 3000 words or more.

The GOTY Edition with all DLC for 20-30 bucks on Steam is pretty much the only way I buy AAA games now. Given the bugs at launch and the gouging for DLC, it’s just so much better to wait 6 to 9 months.

Shep, my budget is in your hands. Please show me the most efficient way to blow through it on things I don’t need. I want this Black Friday to be the Amazon Prime Day that never was. But mostly I need a new red sweater, because mine has a hole in it. So if you could start with a “sweater deals” section, that would be…

So long, and thanks for all the fish, Evernote.

Wow. As someone who pre-ordered and very much enjoys Battleborn, I’m...kinda pissed. I suppose I shouldn’t be, having bought a game I enjoy, but I am.

I just recently did an upgrade like this. I had a custom built PC that I rarely ever maxed out in power and didn’t really game on so I sold it and revamped my deskspace focusing on my MBP as my main computer. Got a new desk, new display, new speakers, backlighting, and spent hours making it wire-free. Quite satisfied…

Life’s a lot better (in my humble opinion, ymmv) when you make your life outside of your work what you love and find a job that funds that and allows you to enjoy and embrace it (read: work/life balance and flexibility). The pool for decent paying tolerable jobs is much larger than those that you love and can support…

True, but most of the time the LEDs are built in to the case and a pain to take off, or at least more trouble than it is worth. A lot of the people I know with custom PCs prefer the clean box shape with plenty of ventilation, none of those ridiculously shaped cases which only make it hard to put in a sensible place by…
