I strayed from my backlog after EA let Steam have the CnC collection. I've been rocking some RA2/YR. Fired up Generals and rocked a skirmish for a bit.

Comcast dislikes you and defiantly has it out for you anywhere you go.

Stumbled upon a CnC group on FB. Reinstalled RA2/Yuri's Revenge and Generals. Been playing a bit of Yuri's Revenge. What an awesome game. I'm upset I seem to have deleted the hundreds of fan made maps and maps I myself made for the game.

Halo Master Chief Collection Started with Halo Reach I barely remember playing Halo 2 when it came out and getting lost in a city. Haven't played any of them since....mostly because I do not have an Xbox.

I thought about that. As far as I can tell, there is no lost functionality for my purposes so that water mark can sit where it is.

Nice! Thanks!

Thanks! In for one.

Yeah I think I got my system from Costco a few years ago for around ~$450.

Agreed. And in my case I do not have cable (coax or ethernet) in essentially the center of the house and for personal reason I do not put my main PC on WiFi. Gotta work with what you have. Again, though, the Mesh system with a wireless backhaul is working wonders. Eventually I'll get around...

I've got an Orbi Mesh system. I had a nighthawk on one side of the house and in the first floor. Signal in the kitchen was almost non-existent. I bought an extender and placed it in the half way point on the first floor, which improved things but speeds were crappy. The Orbi utilizes a tri...

I enjoy seeing the disconnect from reality some employees have. You were hired to do a job. If your job was in the office M-F and you went remote. Get back in the office. If you were hired as a remote worker, there is a leg to stand on. Ultimately the boss is the boss and tells you what to...

I thought Skype migrated to some other Microsoft name or was rebranded? I used skype before microsoft acquired it and it was fantastic for about a week. Then MS got their hands on it and broke it. Spam bots galore.

That's pretty much the only reason I'm on Windows 11. My laptop came 2nd hand with Windows 10 but after a fresh image it said I could update to Windows 11 so I figured why not? I just bought my WinRAR license last year or the year before...SOB should have held out for another couple years.

The only thing thats going on with PiHole is requests are sent to it and then sent back. Essentially your pihole is just looking up addresses and reporting them back. Your router needs to know that the Pihole is your DNS server, so whatever static IP you have it setup as. So no, it doesn't...

Yep. TDS rolled into town and once they started digging into the side of the road Spectrum bumped their speeds...but didn't do anything with the upload speed which is around ~12. Then they raised my bill. Cannot. Wait. To. Drop. Them. Bottom tier for TDS is 300/300 for $45. Which is PLENTY...

Completed Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Gonna hop back into Dragons Age at some point and Dark Forces replay.

If I got on the opposite team of my buddy I'd report what my team was doing through our private voice channel.

Holy thread necro batman.

I'm suspicious of people who use their ISP email address.

Marketing gimmic...how many people have equipment to handle 1Gb let alone 8Gb? Sure they'll deliver 8Gb to your home but the average consumer has old home routers.

I played the first one on PC. Wife has it for her Xbox. I'm wondering if I should replay it on Xbox to see if the console version is better? Leaning heavily towards getting the PS5 version.

They're coming to my neck of the woods. Offering symmetrical speeds and really tossing a rock in the pond. Spectrum is shaking in their boots. I think they bottom tier plan is 300/300 for $45. Specturm is like 300/~10 for $80. I've not seen any bad reviews on nextdoor or facebook for my area.

Not only that, I googled Norton VPN and found several articles as to why it sucks. The first one I read gave me enough info to not want to use it.

Negatives - It's Norton. Didn't they get in trouble for installing crypto mining software unaware to the user? Norton is still around? Why do you pay for Norton?

Just saw a PS5 disc at a local WalMart last night for $560.

Completed Tomb Raider. Will be working on Rise of Tomb Raider.

Life 360?

Tomb Raider (2013) PS4 Back 4 Blood PC Taking a long hiatus from Dragon Age.

Because it's harry potter. Now all the closet hermits (non pun intended about the closet) can live some of their fantasies about being a wizard.

Never played it before, but for $3 I'll add it to my back log.

Besides some combat challenges and whatever, I've just about through Arkham City. Only need to finish one side mission and I'm done. Up next is Arkham Knight. Apparently the downloadable code I got is for the UK version. Fortunately I at some point, most likely my first play through, bought...

3.5" drives from laptops...those must be some beefy laptops!

Yeah but I didn't have to drag either my PS3 or PS4 out to play it. ;) One of them came as a downloadable game and not a disc so we'll see what that brings. Arkham Origins is not on the PS4 so that's a bummer. The thought did cross my mind something seemed off about an hour into the game...

Agreed. I keep trying to do some runs to get the feel of the game and teenagers on Xbox join in and run off by themselves. And then they do their own thing till they die and rage quit.

I grabbed back4blood. Interesting game play.

Batman Arkham Asylum remastered PS4 on PS5.

Finally a game to buy for my PS5! I don't know how many countless hours I had in the OG. I played some of the later games, but they never fully caught my interest. I think I have all of them up to Five.

Card firmware flashed incorrectly? Corrupted firmware? Try flashing it yourself.

Pretty sure I have a H700 and have two 14TB drives in it.

I bought two 14TB drives early this year...or late last year? Either way, they were easy to shuck and I did not have to do the power tape trick.
