    I'm considering jumping servers for FF14. I'm on the one the GHOST folks are on but I never end up actually playing with any of them. I might try to get into the Nextlander guild or something. Probably reup my sub in a few days to prep, I haven't played since before baby arrived.
    I love GHOST but now I'm on EU time and it's hard to play with people. Maybe I'll switch also.

    Saying “I am actually in my forties” works for me but I’m smushing actually a bit.

    i'll talk shit about New World all day but i also still have fun with the PvE parts and have quickly made a few pals that i really enjoy running around with so i hope they can FFXIV that shit or we at least all agree to move to a new game together

    well the ff14 expansion is coming out in like 18 days so in this case pulling a FF14 might just be literally everyone leaving to go play ff14...
    Have you heard of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV? With an expanded free trial which you can play through the entirety of A Realm Reborn and the award winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 for free w

    It depends on how you go through the diphthong in the middle. It's 4 syllables in proper English but colloquially, a lot of folks will fly through the "tual" part as a diphthong, which can be one syllable (see the word "coin" for example... two vowel sounds, but everyone will say that it's 1 syllable).

    Diphthong is fun to say. Thong thong thongthong thong.

    The notion of proper English is prescriptivist bullshit propagated by the aristocracy.

    We think we figured out our massive spike on the DDR.

    It turns out the RMAN compression rate for our new vendor was at like 5% and it was at 25% for our old vendor.

    Whoops.

    are YOU on the beer list?

    I am at my former boyfriends house to look at his mobo to figure out what SSD to put in for him and he's playing WoW because he didn't check his text messages to see that I was coming over and now I have to wait 20 minutes AND he's annoyed at me because it was "too spontaneous".

    I got my new MacBook Pro 16" and while I will not be taking any questions about its cost, it is easily the best laptop I have ever used and possibly the best laptop ever made.

    Sometimes Apple charges super high prices and delivers something well designed and pretty but ultimately mediocre. In this case they are charging a super high price and delivering the single best piece of consumer technology anyone has created in like many decades. It stands head and shoulders above every other laptop I've ever used to the point where it's not even close.

    They've even gone backwards on a bunch of apple-like shit to do this! They retired their shit ass keyboard design, retired the touchbar, added back ports, added both thickness and weight to the case, properly designed the cooling system with more vents, fans, and copper mass so it does not rely on speed throttling. The keys have a little mechanical-like click to their actuation (tho I do not believe they are actually mechanical).

    I don't know how many real games are going to come to this platform but it seems like it could probably run them. The Unity and Unreal editors are both native to the architecture and run incredibly well, substantially better than they do on my desktop PC. The combination of a million cores and shared CPU/GPU memory makes these editors just scream. It's so good.

    It has reminded me that the music for Anastasia really fucking slaps. I think I wore out that CD as a kid.
