Aridi 02/12/21 6:19:57 AM #15 | How does someone suffering with this condition read a book? The entire process is about forming images in your mind based on what you read. Sounds like it would be awful to deal with. --- When do you stop growing up and start dying? |

He's reading the prompter like talking to a gathering of 5 year olds and it's completely out of tone with the show.

Topic | I don't like where Microsoft is trying to take gaming |
Aridi 09/09/20 9:19:22 PM #53 | Microsoft is offering Smart Delivery for next-gen, so I can purchase a game for my One X and know I'll have the upgraded version when I decided to get the Series X. That's a massive consumer-friendly move. Microsoft actually lets you play games that you purchased in the past! Nintendo, and Sony to an extent, don't give a shit if you bought that game before, they want more money. Another bonus for the consumer. Microsoft actually supported physical media this gen by allowing me to take full advantage of my LG B7 by including a 4K UHD drive! Sorry, but streaming in pseudo-4K doesn't cut it for those of us with functioning eyes and ears. How the hell did Sony drop the ball on that one? Game Pass is widely acknowledged across the industry as an absolutely tremendous deal for consumers, and a major positive for Microsoft. If you don't like games, that's not a Microsoft problem. Your only valid complaint is microtransactions. And I agree! I hate them. But have you had your head in the sand for the past 8 years? Every instance I can think of where a game released with heavily monetized nonsense, the backlash was vicious, and resulted in developers changing their approach (Forza 7, Middle-Earth Shadow of War, EA and the Battlefront 2 onslaught, and I can keep going), and you certainly can't point the finger at Microsoft for all of them... oh wait, you are. Stop with that shit. --- When do you stop growing up and start dying? |

Topic | I have a new PC headset with 7.1 virtualisation. |
Aridi 08/27/20 9:18:42 PM #11 | For the price he paid, 7.1 virtualization is absolutely fine. It's also an improvement over straight up stereo if your setup is configured even halfway decent. I don't think anyone's arguing the merits of virtual surround over true 7.1 because there are none. But yeah, Atmos is definitely a step above Windows Sonic. And if the content was mastered for Atmos, that step grows to a sizeable margin. Object-based surround sound is lovely. --- When do you stop growing up and start dying? |
Topic | Is it possible to negotiate pay when there are payscales? |
Aridi 08/26/20 7:09:26 PM #5 | If they won't budge, at least see if you've got an opportunity for accelerated advancement based on previous experience. Maybe 30 day reviews instead of 90 day. Nothing wrong with negotiating or asking questions. --- When do you stop growing up and start dying? |

I take the money from his car anyway and consider backing up over him a few times, but set aside offing him.
