Large SSDs are slower and more prone to failure than smaller ones, so a hybrid drive makes more sense in a use-case where individual programs use large amounts of space.

Chic. “Sheik” is a tribal leader.

Remember when talking into your wrist was the height of cool-spy fashion? Dick Tracy remembers...

Arabic inspired, not Muslim inspired. The two often go together, but it's important to note the difference, especially these days.

Yes, by the time of the patch Classic is based around, each faction had multiple Auction Houses, and they were linked in content as well (patch 1.9 linked them).

Now, I’m clearly speaking for myself, but I do enjoy a certain amount of muscle. As far as I’m concerned, everyone should have their own ideal self to reach. You be who you want to be, and you’ll find the right person. Heck, being who you want to be gives you confidence, and that is downright desirable.

Hey now, Prime occasionally has good movies! They just tend to go against the bingeing grain. For example, you can watch Mission Impossible 3 and 6, but you have to pay for the other four if you want to binge the series.

Board games are fantastic, if you can do scheduling and proximity. If you can’t do proximity, there’s always Tabletop Simulator.

There are a lot of variations of these, and some are listed under craft supplies. Five dollars got us a VERY large bag of sparkly balls, and they are now all over the place.

That's pretty much it. Epic chose the least friendly option for a new storefront and did it while they had nothing to compete with except whatever they had in the store. No features, no price competition. And yet, some people are so angry with Steam that they can't see what damage is being done.

He chose not to go on the platform because he’d be forced to be exclusive to the platform. He states multiple times that that was his primary reason for not being on the Epic Game Store. The email states this, and is the reason for the decision. Whether Epic approached him or not is irrelevant, they stated that it’s…

That’s literally what the blog post said. Complete with email screenshot.

They may be pulling their content from other services, but they are also making a great deal more of their content available that couldn’t be previously streamed. It’s not a matter of mere isolation.

Those little cannibalistic murder machines have always been cool, you were merely fooled by their teddy bear appearances. One look at those glittering dead black eyes should be all you need to see just what they really are, however.

More likely they saw an opportunity to save a pile of cash in printing costs.

Sounds like you’ve been around some crazy-looking polygonal barns, my friend.

Interesting take. Personally, I’m of the opinion that these people are working to preserve our culture before it deteriorates entirely, as people recklessly destroy and discard any remaining portions of it instead of taking proper care of it.

Not really, since the board itself is the actual protected item. Electronics collecting is inherently different from other types of collecting since keeping the items in working order is more important than keeping them pristine. Recapping boards is fairly common in retro computing circles.

It’s only industry-standard when it comes to consoles, or with major publishers sequestering their own games. The bought exclusives for a digital platform is entirely new on PC, and a large part of why I’m personally refusing to touch the EGS.

They tried that with AT&T back in the day. You may have heard the term “Baby Bell,” which was about that kind of antitrust breakup. The problem is, the split was regional, which meant that the companies weren’t really competing with each other unless they wanted to expand. Given that ISPs are largely divided by region…
