Killer machine man, with those specs, EA's new Battlefront II (2017) could be maxed out 8k no problem!

Just found this. I kind of feel like it should have been the ending theme to What You Leave Behind. The first half of the song, anyway.

Hello y'all, There is a major hurricane bearing down on my area so I may be absent for a few days. My wife and kids are planning to evacuate but I will be remaining behind for work and to make certain things will be good for when they get back. I will see y'all on the other side.

Stay safe, @SciFiFan!

So, uh, Half-Life 3's plot has been leaked. By the lead writer, even. It sounds like he got fed up with Valve. I'd say this will either be the shove Valve needs to finish the game, or the game will never be released.

Is it just me, or does Vreenak look like Kevin Bacon?

Yep, just waiting for the $$$ to come rolling in :excited::lol2:

In all seriousness, Shapeways don't pay up until there is $30 in the bank. Given that the material/production costs make up almost all of the asking price, it will be a loooooong time before I see anything in my bank.

Update: All of my family in the area came out on the other side ok. A small portion of my fence came down and my mom's garage flooded but that is it. My uncle was in a nursing home that got flooded but he was evacuated to a shelter then transferred to another nursing facility. The storm moved east spreading the devastation. If there is anyone that can help out with donations to the Red Cross, that would be greatly appreciated.

@Hellkite is there any chance your old rig might have salvageable parts that one may purchase? Particularly graphics cards?

Well, back in May I pre-ordered Destiny 2. First time I have ever done so. Today, I went and picked up my download code. I turn on my Xbox and put in the code and it was for a Microsoft gift card. I was confused and re-read the instructions on the receipt. So I redeemed the code and used it to buy the game so I can get it downloaded. The receipt also had a code for a special weapon and ghost. Well, when I used the gift card to buy the game, it came with a pack the included both. I didn't realize it until I redeemed the code otherwise, I would have been more than happy to share. Anyways, I think the next time I pre-order a game, I will just go through Xbox.

Any chance you could post a picture of it? I am constantly on my kids about drinks at the computers. Maybe if the see first hand what can happen, they'll actually listen.
