This summer has marked my 8th year of being here. Honestly, it's crazy to think that I've been here this long and that this forum has been such a big part of my life. I used to be really immersed in the 3DS scene—that was the original reason for my registering. Nowadays, my 3DS is sitting on my...

Some explanation first: this dream's other main character was my old biology teacher from high school, whom I like very much. She's a sweet, slender woman in her 50s or 60s, with short, black hair. Also, a backstory for the world itself: giants live in the mountains. They are creatures whom are...

When I bought my current phone three years ago (a Nokia 7 Plus), they still weren't being sold in Hungary, so I thought Android One would be a good compromise (I'm a sucker for stock Android and updates). As it turns out, Nokia's handling of the Android 10 update wasn't the best, because it was...

I was playing a third-person action platformer. I was in a donut-shaped arena and Mother Miranda appeared, standing menacingly. I had to shoot her in the face multiple times, which didn't do damage, but promoted her to get on a mule and start chasing me. I did the same, and so the first phase...

(This dream's premise feels somewhat similar to a game I played recently—Changed—and I wouldn't be surprised if the game had to do with me having it.) I was living in a building with hundreds of other people. This building was special, however, in that we couldn't leave it. Ever. We were born...

I'm looking for a new keyboard; a mechanical one. Do you guys have any recommendations? My budget is €50, but I'd prefer it to be around €30-40. I'm willing to go higher, though, if it's really worth it. My preferences would be: - Programmable RGB - Full-size (not necessary) - UK layout...

Yes, my gender setting is still a joke. That's all.

Remember that tale about the Tower of Babel that tried to explain why there are multiple languages? Imagine if it actually happened, was more thin and medieval tower-like and, instead of being destroyed, it was nailed into the ground, creating a hellevator, with only about 20 metres of the top...

(Testing strange behaviour from blogs reported lately.) EDIT: Confirmed. This blog entry didn't appear for a while after I posted it, and has an attachment I didn't upload. EDIT 2: More info here.

It's been almost exactly two years since the last time I wrote a dream log like this, but either I haven't been having a lot of interesting dreams or I was just too lazy to write them down…I can't remember. I was Gordon Freeman. I was currently on the run from the Combine, during the events of...

I have two relatives: a married couple both in their 70s. The woman is my Mum's third cousin. They are in great health and don't look nor act older than 55. They live abroad and we visit them every year. I love them very much and they are like grandparents to me. Their son married a selfish...

Ask Me Anything! I don't remember the last time I did one of these, plus my opinions may have changed in the meantime, so here we go. EDIT: Y'all are too normal. Ask weirder questions!

Note: ‘Dingus’ refers to iPod Touch. I got the name from DankPods (also, this video of his is what convinced me to get this thing). Remember this thread I've made in June? In August, I've decided I wanted to get an iPod Touch and now, the time has come. The final push for me was Google killing...

UPDATE: This is a little awkward, but I managed to fix my Windows laptop, so this isn't really relevant anymore. I'll be a university student next year, which means I'll need a good laptop to do some work on. I've decided I wanted to get a Chromebook for the lighter weight, lighter OS, and...

I've been encountering ants in my room for the past few days. Up until now it was only ~1 per day, but I've already found three of them just this morning (plus a dead one, IDK what happened to it). They are pretty large, about a centimetre long. I always blow them out the window, but they keep...

Some of you might remember my dream logs in which I wrote down my more interesting dreams (the last one was posted over a year ago, jeez). It's been a while since I've had a longer and more elaborate dream (that's technically not true, but I forgot to post about them, so shh~) and I've read that...

Do it. I'll answer unless the question is too awkward or I can't answer it.

It's been about 5 and a half years since I've moved from the city to a town, and since then I didn't really have a TV subscription. Well, technically I did, but I couldn't really use it. You see, in the city I had cable. When I moved here I subscribed to an IPTV service but couldn't really use...

This started out as a thread, but turned kinda personal and storytell-y, so I've decided to post it here instead. Enjoy my suffering. So I've gotten a new computer yesterday. Yay! Only problem is, I have a Windows 10 Pro licence tied to my Microsoft account and I've installed Windows 10 Home by...

You know how some places are actually modelled in Maps? I dreamed about how that could look in the future. It was kind of like a game. It was much more detailed: no more pixelated textures, and you could see the cable of a cable car. It also felt more alive. Water had reflections and rippled...

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
