#10 Steelseries Rival optical mouse in Hardware

The real question is, how easy will it be to fit the sensor and PCB into a Sensei case......

Hmmm.

#108 Are you proud of being a (competitive) gamer? in Off Topic

I'm not proud of the fact that I've burned countless hours over the years on various games. I am proud of the fact that I can name hundreds of people I've met on the internet via gaming that I consider to be friends. I have even met many of them in person on multiple occasions. I can't name any other place where I could come up with more than a dozen people I could consider friends rather than acquaintances, so to me, that is deserving of pride.

I do not broadcast my affinity for games, however. I don't necessarily hide it, but in my everyday life, it is not a subject that comes up. Some of my closest friends know how much time I've dumped into gaming, but most do not.

I'm not ashamed of it, either. If I look at how many hours I've spent playing games and consider that I was socially interacting with numerous people almost any time I was gaming, I feel pretty good about it. I could have spent that time vegging out on the couch watching TV (which has no positive brain effects, unlike gaming). I could have spent that time doing drugs, drinking alcohol, being a thug, or learning new skills and hobbies. Learning new skills and hobbies might have been a better use for that time, but given all the possibilities, I'm pretty happy with the choices I've made.

#22 new sticky launcher thing? in TF2 General Discussion

I never thought I'd say it, but... hold on to your butts...
PT is correct.

For a very long time, you could m1 and then instantly hold m2 and the sticky would detonate once it was ready, but it wasn't instant once it was ready. Holding m2 on demo would play the detonation tone every half second or so and if you tried to detonate too early, you'd have to wait for it to get to the next detonation tone before the sticky would detonate. Holding m2 would also prevent you from firing another sticky. It was NOT like holding m2 to uber instantly when reaching 100%.

I can see this new mechanic being useful for new players against scouts that are in your face, but honestly, if you've played demo for longer than a few hours, you should instinctively have the timing down and this will be more of a crux than a benefit.

#19 November 6 2013 TF2 Update in TF2 General Discussion

I'm not sure if the ones I play on are pinion. Finding a pub requires a ton of work now. 90% of them have this ridiculous stutter every 15 seconds that renders it entirely unplayable. Half or more of them have bots who are feigning human. It's pretty easy to tell they're bots and I freaking hate bots. I have an unreal number of servers blacklisted for having bots.

mthsadbtw if you want to simulate matchmaking and disable pinion, connect to a server by typing "connect <ip> matchmaking" in console (without quotes and with the IP of course). this will make the server think you connected with quickplay and the html motds won't show.

This is the best thing ever, if it works the way I am imagining. I play pubs with a few IRL friends from time to time and it seems most servers make you wait 30-60 seconds for ads every time you join, and after every round. I have HTML MOTDs disabled, but they will still force you to sit still for the same period of time, while simultaneously blocking most of your screen with a 'ENABLE HTML MOTDs NOW' type message.

Hopefully this nixes all that crap.

#13 youtube not showing comments in TF2 General Discussion

Google+ is a joke. I don't want to put my name on crap and I don't want to broadcast every link I've ever clicked to the world. If I wanted to do social networking, I'd use facebook. F'ers.

#4 Ping Spikes on Startup in Hardware

Your motherboard/network card model could be helpful to know here. If you have a "Killer NIC" in your system, it is very possibly the culprit. Are these pings while mumble is open?

Blood,

I tried to see your viewpoint. I really did. Then I read "get's" and I realized your viewpoint is flawed.

#12 Another chair thread, but different in Hardware

$100 for a chair that you use for 10 years? I cannot comprehend why people are unwilling to pay decent money for a chair that will dictate their posture for several hours a day over the course of several to many years.

If you spend $1000 on a high-end, extremely comfortable chair that you use for 4 hours a day over the course of 10 years, you are spending less than 7 cents an hour on that chair. It is unlikely that you will find a better money-to-health investment.

12 pages of this nonsense and you people still refer to cheaters as hackers. They are not synonymous.

Also, anyone with a VAC-banned primary or alt account should be banned forever from ESEA and all the pug channels. Phrakture has a fresh ban in pug.nahl. :>

#19 Update Thursday, 31 Oct in TF2 General Discussion
synchrosmakersholstered and put away mean the same thing you doltWhich is probably why he put a slash and not an "and".

By the way, you forgot to capitalize your "h" and put a period at the end of your sentence.

I didn't forget anything. I was clearly being ironic and hip by typing in all lowercase with no punctuation.

Before he edited his post (and thus, when I commented on it), it said this:

kirbyI'm sure Valve knows about the Crossbow's faster shooting. It's possible that's how it was meant to be? Kind of doubt it though, considering the Flaregun takes the same time holstered/put away.

The context of that is clear. He is presenting two scenarios. One where the flare gun is 'holstered' and another where the flare gun is 'put away'.

Suck it, Trebek.
