System Wars Lounge V47: The 60FPS 1080P Edition

After witnessing a car crash on my way to get lunch, there needs to be a yearly or every so often course people need to take on "learning how to fraking drive". I fear half of the world population would fail and get their licenses taken away, which would be a good thing. It just baffles my mind how people just ignore simple things like "stop at a red light", "use your turn signal" and "don't drink and drive".

I'm eating a chocolate cake right now! 0__0

The ones that get me are the ones that sit so close to my rear end when I'm in my truck. I have a 6-7ft overhang from the rear axle so I have a massive tail swing. One of these days someone is going to sharing their car with my tailgate.

That annoys me as well, specially when I was driving a company truck a few years ago. It's even worse when there's ice or rain which makes you even more nervous. I remember a few years ago some guy got pulled over by a cop cause he was tailgating me, I seriously wanted to turn around and laugh at the guy and give him the middle finger.

My faith in humanity was restored today...at least for a little while

you're welcome

The joys of driving a rigid. I was in London last weekend and the amount of people that did some crazy shit just to get round me was mind blowing. Or the ones that lean on their horns when I'm slow at pulling away. "I'm sorry Mr car idiot, I do pull away slowly but I weigh 26 tons and by the time I'm doing 20mph I've gone through 5 gears"!

you corrected that hamster's vision. Who wouldn't be moved by that

@lostrib: well i had to. how else could he read my posts?

but anyway enough of this fannying about. what happened to cause you to lose your faith in humanity? niki minaj?

Never had to deal with that XD

The biggest I've driven was a 2010 and a 2011 Chevy 2500, while getting shotgun in a 18 wheeler water truck (forgot what kind it was).

I want cake :(

My internet connection doesn't support cake sending. :(

Never seen one happen (been very close to being t-boned on passenger side while I was sitting in the passenger seat)

But living in Vegas I have seen the aftermath of some pretty horrific crashes (body bags and whatnot)...hell yesterday I saw the cops looking into a crash where someone had driven headfirst into a median.

I saw a gentleman this morning purchase breakfast for a mentally handicapped young adult simply out of kindness it seemed

that is pretty kind. yeah, not all humans are terrible.

People are butt hurt over 3DS upgrade because their 3DS can't play Xenoblade.

I would be pretty pissed too if I had to buy a PS4 V2 to play MGS5.

It's more like having to buy a PS4 V2 to play Last of Us Remastered.

Yeah, I dont get what the fuss is about. If you want to play the portable version of Xenoblade: Chronicles, just buy the new 3DS. It's not that hard.

But then again, I've already played Xenoblade: Chronicles.

It's not that we can't play Xenoblade. It's that it may set a very dangerous precedent. Which leads to dividing the user base.

That was also the reason behind the whole Ground Zeroes fuss. The fact that now future games may have this kind of paid demos.

Youtube changed again T_T

Come September, I'll be rocking a 5960X.

I've now calmed down, and warmed up to the idea of this upgrade (as I basically said I would). This new hardware is everything I ever wanted from 3DS, after all, and I suppose, by the time I get around to upgrading it (when it launches in NA), I'll have had my 3DS for four years, which is long enough to where I won't feel burned.

I'll upgrade. The new model seems to be pretty worth it.

@clyde46: isn't that like a $1000 CPU?

Ya.

@clyde46: do you have a purpose or just cuz?

4K video.

New lounge tonight?

New lounge tonight. It's needed pretty badly. Almost as bad as the "stale" edition a while back.

Who wants to host it?

Lostrib!

Oh oh! Pick me! I've never done it before :3

@verbtex: I got it

@Blabadon: How many do you do yo?

Tell you what, parkurtommo, I want the next lounge to come around September 20th. I'll do what I can to reserve it for you. I used to be on a 3 week cycle, but times have changed.:(.
