I know it's not modest to talk about money but what about if it's in the context of art? This little illustrations on the Canadian fiver looks like great fun.

Beate Kaderli we both got Elswyer last night and made new Necromancer characters. I chose to go with a Breton this time. —

Now that some people are streaming for work - winking at Maurice William
This is called Infraworks.
It's actually not a game believe it or not.
"Autodesk® InfraWorks® is a planning and design platform that enables engineers to quickly and easily convey preliminary design intent in a real-world, contextual environment, increasing stakeholder buy-in and team decision-making."
So basically... it allows you to work with information in way that you can visually represent it and use it for designing. It… See More
takes a little setting up but when it works just right it's like playing your own little SimCity that your company pays you for.

The screenshots from the Witcher Netflix series looks not too bad so far. I have mixed feelings about the series in general because of the author Andrewj Sapkowski - you can google all the drama. However, it doesn't help to doom something before giving it a chance so let's all hope it will be great.

News I read, is that it's Directed by the same person who did Netflix Dare Devil. Am not a fan of how Dare Devil was played.
None the less, am excited to view it when it's available
Since he doesn't have both swords in the posters, I would believe the story begins before he is given the Silver Blade... —

I know we're all from different temperature ranges but here in Pretoria South Africa it's cold for Africa. I felt like the first hour at work I was just defrosting. Accuweather reports a low of 3°C and a high of 18°C. Feels weird to log into my Steam account for the Summer Sale when I'm wearing 3 layers of clothing and a balaclava.

Sorry for being so scarce - I'm sick with Pharyngitis since last week. My wife had Bronchitis and that's my suspect. I played a little Warframe on Sunday but I ended up coughing half the time on the voice chat. It's currently ice cold in Pretoria (South Africa) and I just wanted to stay in bed today.
Last night I logged into ESO to claim my daily reward and that was it. I made a quick Magic the Gathering deck - got the cards, sleeves, lands etc, entered it on Topdecked and coerced my wife to play-test… See More
it with me on the bed.

Gaming Stigmas:
Talking to non-gamers:
My own child will tell a stranger about Ender Dragons from Minecraft and that crazy whale-dropping goat they unlocked in goat simulator. I gave him the fight club speech "The first rule of PC gaming is don't talk about PC gaming". When you rave on about PC games to a non-gamer you sound like a loony and then they want to throw you in the loony bin - "He said he's a devil-killing whirlwind-barbarian" "He said he's a beastmaster orc hunter with a pet astral beast"… See More
- "He said he can 360 no-scope Cyka Blyat"
Talking to gamers:
It's very weird when I meet another gamer because at first you don't know the other person is a gamer so have to play a game where you have to make them admit that they're a gamer and gradually you disclose more info to each other. It's different if someone was told that you are a gamer - they'll walk right up to you and start chatting about any game - even Farmville.
Sorry for the long read. What's your experience?

Are there young people who never played a game? I never met one.
Older people yes, but I always just start talking about gaming myself, because it's not something to be ashamed of, it's just a hobby like any other. I even encourage them to try it too because it can bring much joy. Not sure I am a gamer, but I play games. —

I tend to have to hide my power level even when talking to self-proclaimed "gamers;" you know, this new-age mass of people who thinks playing Minecraft or WoW, exclusively, makes one a gamer. And then when I want to talk about Nolan Bushnell or the intricacies of various types of shaders and texture maps, they give me a dumbfounded look. I suppose there are various degrees of "gamers," but I don't believe we should all be lumped into the same group. —

John is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will... something you know very little about. I once saw him kill three men in a bar, with a pencil. With a f***ing... pencil. Then suddenly one day he asked to leave. It's over a woman, of course. So I made a deal with him. I gave him an impossible task. A job no one could have pulled off. The bodies he buried that day laid the foundation of what we are now. And then my son, a few days after his wife died, you steal his car and kill his f***in' dog.

Gaming Party Bus anybody?

In all seriousness when I'm not gaming I just wanna chill.
I like to take in the fresh air, feel the sun on my pale skin,
hear the little birdies chirp, look at the beauty of nature etc.
For me an adequate party is just an ice cold glass of strong alcohol,
sitting behind a big fire, snacking on chip & dip and grilling meat. —

215 euro processor performing close to an i7 8700K which is close to 400 euro or so.
that 3600 seems great, the 3600X seems a bit better since it has a higher TDP but also costs 50'ish euro more.
Intel might still be the best gaming CPU with their 9900K but man.. Ryzen keeps on rising! —
