Starfield is 33% off on Steam right now:

I am still not tempted to buy it...
And it's still 67% pricier than it should be.

Well played good sir.

Cooling also used to be a problem for gaming laptops - has that changed? I had two just burn out - although that was about 10 years ago (showing my age...).

Tom's Guide asks: Are gaming laptops still worth it in 2024?

I used to prefer a gaming laptop over a desktop, but these days I've switched to an iBuyPower gaming desktop and a Steam Deck, and definitely do not regret it. I'm currently 150 hours into Baldur's Gate 3, and all of that time has been spent on the Deck.

My brain hurts from reading this thread. This is a gaming site. Knock off the politics or this Undead Necromancer will send the uruk-hai over to keep the peace.

Thx. Cthulhu

Portable monitor link? Thank you!
Sure, with the caveats that:
1) These are commodity items, so I just shopped for price and features. They have them bigger and smaller at higher and lower resolutions and run between about $75 and $200. Almost all have Chinese names, and if any of them is an actual brand apologies, but it all seems like a crapshoot. There are name-brand models for more, but I'm guessing this will be just fine for my modest needs.
2) I haven't worked with it at all yet, I just confirmed it operates properly (it was plug and play) and looked okay.

But yeah, drawing power and video through the USB with no extra effort is a little like tech magic. Here's the link:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C8J9VB27

Thanks, interested to see how it performs. Could also use it with a Deck/Switch (via HDMI) and controller depending on weight.

I just want a game like Independence War - Edge of Chaos. Nothing has ever really scratched that same itch.

Dear God yes. I started that one up and could not put it down. Best space sim I ever played, by quite a distance. Loved the physics.

One of the developers (Steven) was active on the IWar forum for years - super nice guy.

Might have to get this one - looks very promising albeit displaying its influences (Witcher) a bit too clearly.

Good for them! I've really enjoyed playing around with the mods on that site. Only negative was when their email database got hacked once, but that was a one-time thing and wasn't their fault.

You have made my life complete
And I Snag you so

Snag me tender, Snag me true

Snag me tender, Snag me long
Take me to your heart
For it's there that I belong
And we'll never part

batch of chili
I usually use garlic, sea salt, cracked black pepper, cumin, Spanish sweet paprika, and ancho, poblano and arbol chiles (soaked if dried), and serrano chiles (fresh), plus black beans and corn, baby bello mushrooms, a lot of veggies, honey, and tomato sauce. The protein is Beyond Meat, which tastes just as good as high quality minced beef and is much healthier.

Takes about 2 hours to make, served with baked (not fried) tostadas, a green salad, avocado, and your choice of hot sauce on the side for those wanting to kick it up a notch (default is Cholula, but we also have habanero, tabasco, and scorpion sauces, and sometimes a homemade fermented hot sauce).

But despite being a techie, this does not extend to smartwatches.

I was the same until my fiancee gave me a Samsung Galaxy smartwatch. It's excellent - combines time with fitness, scheduling, communications, weather and much more. Even lets me control my phone's music player. Battery life is at least 3 days, with contactless charging. Very recommended.

I'm hoping that they please please please don't pull another Cyberpunk/Witcher 1 and have to remake the game post-release to have it live up to its potential.
