Homebuying activity is falling off a cliff (On a yearly basis, pending transactions were down by 18.7%)
  • I'd literally be better of keeping this house and renting it out if I wanted to move

    Define "better off". You are certainly going to have an easier time affording payments on your next house if you sell this one and use the proceeds as down payment.

  • The new Moderna vaccine kicking anyone else's ass?
  • Yes!!! It's a great vaccine, I'll keep supporting our great pharmaceutical companies and happily inject myself with anything they produce. They have a great track record. Fuck those antivaxxers, they don't know what's good for them.

  • No hurricane has ever crossed the equator
  • Everyone knows will become inhospitable in a few years

    Ok, buddy. Remind me in a few years. I'll move to the equator and you can move to Antarctica, we'll see who fares better.

    The schools really are brainwashing the kids these days...

  • What are the connotations of Joe Rogan?
  • It's just used as an excuse to shut down speech the government/tech companies don't like because it doesn't fit their narrative.

    So what if someone believes the earth is flat, let the people hear and decide for themselves. That's a bedrock of democracy, people are capable of making decisions for themselves. Not you or anyone else has a right to tell them what to believe or filter down the information they get.

  • Rating down at 77%
  • You can't fault them for not giving it a fair chance.

    I played for about 25 hours before I gave up.

    Those 25 hours were mostly me waiting for the moment when it would finally get better. The moment never arrived.

  • Bethesda says most of Starfield's 1000+ planets are dull on purpose because 'when the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there' but 'they certainly weren't bored'
  • I gave Starfield a fair chance, I played it for 20 hours, patiently waiting on why it deserved an "8.4" rating from critics. But it never delivered. The gameplay is a copy of Fallout 4, the user interface is a mess (they've gone backwards somehow) and the world is just so generic and uninspiring that I couldn't bear one more minute of it.

    I can see why it's got a 5.5 from real players.

    On a side note, the gaming reviews now mirror Rotten tomatoes. What the professional paid "critics" love, doesn't necessarily mean the players do, and vice versa. The real players always give a more fair rating.

  • Where Do You Sit in the Movie Theater?
  • > We've also got a theater with two IMAX screens

    Which theater is that? I've been looking for one but there isn't one near my location, apparently there are only 30 of them? EDIT: Clarification, only 30 in the entire world that project 70mm. I was looking for one to watch Oppenheimer in.

  • Seedbox recommendations (thinking of switching)
  • Because they can't see what you're downloading via direct download especially if it's over HTTPS. On the other hand, it's trivial to see everyone's IP if they download the same torrent you are, then they just send letters to ISPs owning those IPs who then pass it on to you.

  • Where to find KOTOR II (Aspyr 2015 version)

    Can anyone provide some hints where to find this game (if it's not against the rules)? I have the original version, but the 2015 updated version has controller support which is what I want. I bought it on Steam, but I like to own my games so I can install and play offline anytime I want.

    Is this community dead?

    I, like many here, have migrated over from reddit and trying to recreate all the subreddits I've been subscribed to. The ones I miss the most are personal finance and investing. I found this one but there doesn't seem to be much activity here?
