SC2 for context: From watching pros play, an early wall-off can be vital. At their level of play, slipping in 1 to 3 combat units can have devastating early effect. Terrans can easily solve this by including a supply depot in their wall, wh

Spatial audio cues in videogames work just fine for me with headphones! When I play Valorant and am trying to be sneaky, I will tune out whatever my teammates are saying to listen for footsteps, or other audio cues that might indicate some

I'm a tall guy, and started feeling claustrophobic when I saw what some of the tunnel entrances looked like. I never used the measurement tool to verify, but they looked like they'd have made me prefer crawling instead of crouchin

This is interesting, and supports some sci-fi-fantasy I have: I'm convinced that this process could be done in zero-G, and could be a way to start processing raw resources in space . How else can we expect to build megaships?

Paraphrased from an article posted in recent-ish history: Before you bother building the product, call up your VC friends and see if you get any nibbles.

A90J is, by the research I did and the word of the person who sold it to me (a family friend, has owned a TV business for 25 years, and gave me his at-cost price), the best. I absolutely love it. And yes, the panel + heatsink are top notch.

For what it's worth, I bought a high end TV recently, the Sony Bravia A90J. I've left out some of the full product name, but this info is all you need if you care to look up that TV. When I was looking in physical stores, at physi

Epicor is an ERP program, and from my limited time working with a different one, I think it's a bit unfair for them to expect you to handle this whole thing on your own, and on such short notice. I've only seen ERP software be big

As someone who put down Overwatch a while ago, after having actually enjoyed it for a while, I have no desire to pick up OW2. Activision-Blizzard's merger tells me that 'Classic Blizzard' will never again exist, and that I sh

Would it make more sense for you to build a high-end PC, and artificially limit the performance when testing the game? Or keep some of your old components, to build a low-end testing machine?

4-wire PC fans are usually PWM controlled. That might be why the first attempt didn't go well, if he didn't try multiple fans.

In super small form factor PCs, sometimes you use a fan grille on the inside , to make sure that wires, etc on the interior don't get caught in the fan.

That reminds me of a sports talk show I see on the gym TVs sometimes. A few talking heads, and a host who literally gives/takes points from these old men talking football/sports.

If you're not allergic, I suggest peanuts as a snack. They're 'good enough' as long as you stick to dry roast/basic salted, they have decent-enough nutritional balance, and can be had dirt cheap. I'd eyeball a

Discoed does a lot of things 'right' for a lot of people. For gamers, Discord became a no-brainer after not much time. Click to create a server for some friends, send out some invites, and that's pretty much all you need. Bui

When I game on my 3440x1440 curved monitor, I usually nudge my FOV 10 to 20 degrees higher. This gives me a very generous 'flat' zone in the middle for when (and where) I need precision, and the edges of the screen have a small b

I like big, chunky weights, and want big muscles. I enjoy having a bit of bulk, and that doesn't mix the best with bodyweight exercise. In my head, bodyweight exercise is best for maintaining a more lean physique.

My credit card has an annual fee, but includes DashPass for free when I use it. So, if I order twice a month, I'm even-ish on costs versus the discounts. If there aren't any coupons available to me, then I sometimes try to optimiz
