| Sonic Cannon 02/19/20 3:10:31 AM #58 | Motherfuck is such a great concept. All of the worst memories of random encounters in Pokemon, combined with a really nasty PvE moveset --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | All female League of Legends team kicked out of league for shitting the bed |
| Sonic Cannon 02/18/20 2:41:44 PM #27 | Tmaster148 posted... It's definitely not their picks causing issues. They lost a game of LoL in 13 minutes. IDK if it's the same in LoL, but in DotA it's definitely possible for even tier 1 pro teams to lose maches very quickly now and then. It's usually the result of being unexpectedly outdrafted, or the opponent taking a risky draft with an early peak, and it paying off perfectly. --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | PlayStation 5 vs Xbox Series X |
| Sonic Cannon 02/18/20 2:13:51 PM #6 | Definitely too early to make a call on this. The main thing that will push me to an early purchase of either system is backward compatibility. If it enables me to entirely replace one of the current systems, I'm probably getting on board early --- Keep it green. |

| Topic | Should I build a PC or just buy one prebuilt? |
| Sonic Cannon 02/17/20 4:48:53 PM #39 | A good way to set your build is to look at a particular game you want to be able to run, and spec to target that. In Dec 2015 when I made my current build, I wanted to be able to play Witcher 3 on high-ultra settings at 1080p and get a good 60fps. I ended up with a GTX1060 6gb and a Core i5-6500. I can still run most games from 2019 on high at 1080p and get 60fps (e.g. Jedi Fallen Order, Division 2). Control and RDR2 can hit >30fps on high, but not 60. --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | All the hate Star Citizen gets I can't help but when I see shit like this |
| Sonic Cannon 02/17/20 4:12:46 PM #78 | s0nicfan posted... Did the TC neglect to mention that this "massive" game is sharded to 50 people per server? This isn't like EVE online or an actual MMO, outside of the promise that it might one day become that.Wait, if this is true then my enthusiasm levels have just dropped pretty dramatically. Is there any plan to increase this? A 50 player cap completely ruins the fantasy of a lot of the larger ships they've pitched. Things that need a large crew, or are supposed to have lots of activity within them just won't be viable with a 50 player cap. --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | All the hate Star Citizen gets I can't help but when I see shit like this |
| Sonic Cannon 02/17/20 4:02:40 PM #77 | This is probably the most encouraging video of Star Citizen I've seen, as far as something looking like a worthwhile game. I bought in to a fairly basic tier at the beginning, but at this point I'm far beyond expecting a coherent, complete game will be released any time before 2023. All the grand designs for ambition and scope don't matter if they never release an actual complete product. CIG is terrible at the production side of this project, and as far as I can remember has basically never achieved any promised deadline or target date. --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | Know any businesses that are super ethically/morally good? |

Doctors Without Borders is probably the easiest slam dunk in this regard, assuming you're allowed to pick nonprofits.Yeah most of the better contenders are gonna be NGOs that include volunteers. If they need to be for-profit orgs, then I'd say start looking for places that do things like

| Topic | What does the Confederate flag mean to you? |
| Sonic Cannon 02/16/20 4:16:22 PM #74 | a-c-a-b posted... He had no idea about the history behind it and literally thought it was called the Redneck flag. I've met people like this, and it does complicate the issue. There are quite a few people who only really know the flag by this more recently ascribed meaning, and don't care about (or know much about) the US civil war at all. But they get really defensive if you tell them the origins of the flag and the ideals the confederate army was representing. I guess they would come under the "idiot at best" classification --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | What does the Confederate flag mean to you? |
| Sonic Cannon 02/16/20 3:35:41 PM #34 | 1NfamousACE_2 posted... It's funny you say that. In 11th grade US history, the black teacher asked a white girl with a Confederate flag shirt on if she believed in God? The girl said yes. The teacher then asked who's side was God on in the Civil War and she went to say the South but he interrupted her loudly and said WRONG!In my head this played out like the Kevin Spacey "WRONG!" from Superman Returns https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mU7KzZY5PWg --- Keep it green. |

| Topic | Trump: 53% approval (plus add 9 points?) |
| Sonic Cannon 02/10/20 7:20:24 AM #8 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... Allowing another party now would just mean the current party that didn't have people split off from it would always win everythingThis is a problem with plurality/fptp elections, not a necessary result of democracy. If you want this to change, you need a proportional system, multi-winner electorates or at least ranked voting. Otherwise it's spoiler effect all the way down. --- Keep it green. |

| Sonic Cannon 02/10/20 6:49:00 AM #8 | Evening_Dragon posted... He didn't quit over gamergate, though, and he never quit the industry, he just took a backseat from being a face and journalist. Up until now, he was a consultant. Glad to see he's back.This --- Keep it green. |

| Sonic Cannon 02/10/20 12:19:19 AM #27 | cuttin_in_farm posted... My phone is only $80 a month since I paid that off too last year.Is this considered cheap? I've never spent more than $20/month on a phone bill, and 40-50 is the upper end of what I'd consider normal. --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | Is $900-$1000 a month rent ok if I make around $2200 a month net? |
| Sonic Cannon 02/08/20 10:39:51 PM #2 | That's kind of a lot to be spending on your car. $3600/year minimum? I've lived in income/rent circumstances like that before, but didn't have any other debts. It was fine. I would say yeah you can do it, but you should save up more than $1300 first --- Keep it green. |

| Topic | Honestly what are you supposed to do if your child willingly drops out of school |
| Sonic Cannon 02/04/20 7:28:22 PM #9 | My threshold to be ok with them dropping out of high school would be really high. Obviously it is a thing for some people that get big offers in the entertainment industry (some musicians and actors) at that age, but I wouldn't just let them drop out to work on something that wasn't already huge --- Keep it green. |
| Topic | I think a lot more people are going to Vote Trump this time |
| Sonic Cannon 02/02/20 4:32:13 AM #49 | BylethEisner posted... To be honest even if his intention was to smear Joe Bidens name for his benefit. SO WHAT? Why is it that Trump trying to make Bidens corruption obvious, is worse than Biden being actually corrupt?Is this a real perspective on this that people actually have? In the truest sense of the word, Trump's approach to the Bide/Ukraine stuff is an abuse of power and therefore *is corrupt*. Any moral value that might come from trying to expose corruption falls apart if your method of doing that is via corruption. --- Keep it green. |

| Topic | When does Monster Hunter World "click" and get you hooked? |
| Sonic Cannon 01/26/20 2:49:47 AM #47 | There is no definite point. For me it was Anjanath mostly. But also I would recommend trying out every weapon against the Great Jagras and just beat its ass a bunch of times to get some familiarity EDIT: I ended up settling on hunting horn btw --- Keep it green. |

| Sonic Cannon 01/12/20 11:48:12 PM #14 | Primary school was middle/upper middle class Intermediate school and high school were in poor areas (poorest 10% of the country for economic deprivation) High school was actually pretty good as far as teaching and opportunities. Ive got a good number of classmates who went on to good professional qualifications at good universities (engineering, medicine, law, pharmacy, etc.) --- Keep it green. |
