| IdiotMachine 11/12/19 7:55:30 PM #1 | Spiderman Game of the Year, released just three months ago, and it already is up to 1.17, and I have to wait at least an hour and a half to even play it. Modern gaming sucks ass. 1 hour to copy: https://i.imgur.com/johWhgh.jpg 1.5 hour to update (probably more time needed to install as well): https://i.imgur.com/f9zK3Ho.jpg --- |

| Topic | Apparently The Invisible Man trailer spoils a lot of major points in film. |
| IdiotMachine 11/08/19 9:57:36 PM #6 | Hexenherz posted... Of all the classic horror / fantasy characters, the Invisible Man just never interested me. He's invisible. Ok. Besides getting to do pervy stuff like chill out in the women's locker room, it seems like a really dumb premise for a story. Agreed. Anyone can just go buy a thermal camera for a couple hundred bucks, making the whole invisibility thing worthless. Literally first link for thermal camera: https://www.thermal.com/compact-series.html --- |

*55 inch LG 1080p LED-backlit TV (old) *5.1 surround sound in a box system from Yamaha *Computer My movie room has the following: *4K HDR BenQ projector *135 inch silver-infused screen *7.2 surround sound (Yamaha receiver, Klipsch pro audio towers, Polk subwoofers/centers/satellites) The PS4 is currently set up in my office, but the screen feels so small when I play "grandiose" games (like Horizon Zero Dawn, Spiderman, Persona 5, etc.). However, I appreciate that my computer is right next to me so that I can look things up and do more than one thing at a time when playing random games (like Modern Warfare, Everybody's Golf, etc.). As far as the projector, I don't know if input lag will be a problem, since projectors generally suck at that. So... what does CE think of my first world problem? --- |
| Topic | It's so BS that there's a $0.40 fee to pay utilities via online check. |
| IdiotMachine 11/08/19 7:43:09 PM #6 | MachineJaipur posted... The amount of people petty enough to mail a physical check is outweighed by the thousands they're making off of the $2 fee I was one of those petty people. I sent them a check via mail with a postage stamp and envelope every month (for a couple years), until my bank started offering free bill pay (where they do that for you). Then I started doing that for a couple years. But now, I'm just so tired of it... w/e, I'll just pay $5/year for the "convenience" of not having to log into my bank account to digitally write a physical check for the bill. -___- --- |

| IdiotMachine 11/08/19 7:40:48 PM #4 | Hanky_Bannister posted... i actually work in the billing industry and anyone charging markups on card transactions is violating law. Never thought of how that might apply to utility bills. In the retail world, I see this, but the opposite (i.e. "cash discount", instead of "credit card surcharge"). --- |
| Topic | It's so BS that there's a $0.40 fee to pay utilities via online check. |
| IdiotMachine 11/08/19 7:37:21 PM #1 | Credit Card: 2.95% of the transaction amount, or $1.95 fixed, whichever is higher What a load of bullshit. How is it cheaper to have employees cut open mail and deposit a physical check than an online transfer? --- |
| Topic | Fox News Poll: 49% in favor of Impeachment |
| IdiotMachine 11/03/19 1:18:33 PM #1 | Nearly half of voters want President Trump impeached and removed from office, according to a new Fox News Poll. In addition, 6-in-10 believe the president did ask foreign leaders to investigate political opponents -- and two-thirds say that action is inappropriate. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fox-news-poll-49-percent-favor-impeaching-trump.amp Wow.

| Topic | For what products would you pay for extended warranty? |
| IdiotMachine 11/02/19 4:30:41 PM #1 | For me, it seems like I always buy extended warranty for robotic vacuums and robotic pool cleaners/skimmers. And it definitely paid off, since I have had both of these products fail after a year or so. One item I absolutely regret buying one is for my laptop. I don't know what I was thinking, but it was a complete waste of money... Never again. I never thought to buy one for cars, lawn equipment, TV, or computers (except that one time). And I never regretted not buying one. How about you? --- |

Trump probably already gave the plans to Putin anyway Good thing this is classified under DOE which doesn't report to the DOD (i.e. Trump may literally not have the clearance or need to know, and he can't force it as he doesn't have the authority to do so under the DOE clearances and atomic act of 1954). --- |

| Topic | Godfather (1972) is so damn boring. |
| IdiotMachine 10/26/19 11:21:12 AM #32 | So I rewatched it. Actually managed to finish it. I have one more comment to add: Despite it being a 3+ hour movie, everything happens way too fast. The pacing in this movie needs work. Every scene, things drag the fuck down, and then all of a sudden, months (or even years!) are skipped. wtf? And what's up with Al Pacino --- |

| Topic | Godfather (1972) is so damn boring. |
| IdiotMachine 10/25/19 5:12:09 PM #13 | Crono99 posted... A couple of months ago I watched 1 and 2 again with a more critical eye and I think I understood why I didn't like it. There are a lot of things that are difficult to understand. Why does this happen? Why did this character do that? How did they find out this character was a traitor? Didn't have enough interest in Googling why, personally. If the movie can't do it, it's a fail imo. To add to that "unrealistic shootout", that toll booth scene... come on. It was freaking comical. --- |

| Topic | Godfather (1972) is so damn boring. |
| IdiotMachine 10/25/19 5:03:14 PM #1 | I know it's supposed to be a classic, and it's like the #1 best movie on IMDB, but holy crap... it just seems so boring and a waste of time. What is up with Don Vito Corleone's acting? He's like phoning it in the whole time. And the shootouts are all so boring, with terrible sound effects, unrealistic squibs, and really overacted death acting. --- |
