As a teen in the 2010s, my first GPU was an Nvidia 680m in a Sager (Clevo) laptop.

That thing could power through just about anything I'd throw at it. Good times.

Lucky you lmao

I still see them once every so often

In fact, I went onsite to a customer who wanted a new PC set up because the old one "wouldn't boot". Sure enough the cable was sticking out of the monitor at about a 15deg angle. I pushed the VGA cable in a bit extra hard and it came right back.

I was out of there in about 30min.

He's said that he specifically wants Mistborn era 1 in live action movie format, and has written a screenplay for that.

Apparently he was really close to having production start on it, actually.

As for the rest, I'd hope Roshar gets animated, but at the same time, I'd love to see it done properly in live action as a TV show.

Makes me want Cosmere movies even more than I already did

"Uplifting fantasy about characters that 'beat the odds'" is like

The entire thing.

Thanks, I hate it

They're doing the societal version of "I could shoot someone on 5th Avenue"

You never quit RS, you just take a break

Oh to start OSRS blind again like I was a kid (just RS at the time)

Good luck with the new account!

In fairness, I still play 5e

I haven't given WotC a dime since that fiasco, though.

The last thing I bought from them directly was the R20 integrated Out of the Abyss digital campaign for me to DM with some friends.

We got halfway and it was kinda mid. I tossed a big ass boss fight at them along with the mid-game boss and it felt final enough.

Once it releases in full, we'll be a Cosmere RPG group for a good while.

Ask WoTC how they feel about sending thugs to people's doors

Denver to St Louis through KS and MI is up there

Doesn't help that getting from West to East on i70 through Kansas City is a nightmare after driving that long.

Spoiler: i70 doesn't just run through the city like one would think.

Chicago Style Hot Dogs are famous and super tasty

10/10, definitely try one if you get the chance.

 

I saw the lack of content here and thought I'd share my story

I first discovered IF back in Dec 2018, and did it all the way through the start of 2020. I (5'6") went from 240lb down to 195.

Then well, that thing we all went through in 2020 happened and I eventually stopped. It was also a hugely transitory period in my life and I let my weight come back on. (I moved out of the house, in with my now wife, changed jobs twice, moved again... All in the midst of the pandemic and its related insanity)

Now I'm in a much better spot, but I've put everything I lost back on and more.

That said, I've now gone from 250 to 240. Trying to eat lighter, snack less, and be intentional about my macros. I like sticking to a 16:8 window, but I shorten it if it makes sense on a given day.

I remember the community being a huge motivator, so, Good luck out there!

 

I've missed this series for a long time, and I'll never forgive Epic for dropping it like a baby giraffe.

It plays pretty well on my gaming rig, but I'd love to hear about how it plays on lower-end systems. Maybe I'll install it on my 2-in-1 so I can use the touch screen.
