@scottalanmiller said in Gaming - What's everyone playing / hosting / looking to play:
What kind of games you like to play would be an important factor.
Yeah, for sure. I just saw a guy playing it on the plane yesterday and thought it might be a good thing to have for flights and late-night/random boredom.
Anybody got a Nintendo 3DS/DS?
I'm considering one, only because I don't want to spend the cash on a PS4/Xbox One that I'd rarely use, but I find myself wanting to play games at times, whether I'm on a flight, at home, etc.
Who in their right mind is out there still using 3rd party app stores or side-loading? It's almost like they want to be hacked.
@dafyre said in Lenovo Servers Bricked After Windows Update:
All in the name of preventing people from loading an OS on their computer that they actually WANT to use, lol... Even if they don't want the computers form this manufacturer, ha ha.
I fully await the future where this applies to other things, i.e., your Ford engine explodes because you put in Shell gasoline and not Ford-approved BP fuel.
Use coupon code CYBER2017 at checkout and get services free until 2017 (or one month free, whichever sounds better to you).
Come get that sweet, sweet colo or disaster recovery or backup or dedicated server or hell, a whole rack 
Deal ends 12/1. Look at this fancy graphic:
I fully implore people to at least check out the "Black Friday Craziness" at least once. It's a wonderful social experiment and amazing people-watching.
I once saw a dude SPRINT across a huge parking lot to get a deal on metal chains at Home Depot that nobody else was waiting to get.
Also saw a tug of war over BOGO $3 hand towels.
May go to the outlets near my parents house in PA to take advantage of that sweet sweet zero sales tax.
Ok, who broke it? Someone fess up NOW.

Hey, @ChrisL , ever listen to Gift of Gab or Lyrics Born? They were around a couple of years back, but damn, they're both great. And if you like spoken word stuff at all, check out Scroobius Pip, he's a white British dude, his shit's on point, both with and without beats.
I haven't, but now they're on my To Do list. Thanks!
Gift of Gab w/ Del and Brother Ali....
On a semi-cold day in LA, I'm now warm due to the heat that just came out of my speakers.
My favorite Kendrick:

All about that new A Tribe Called Quest album, "We got it from Here... Thank You 4 Your service"
It's just...amazing. Andre 3000, Kendrick Lamar, and Busta Rhymes feature.
I've heard some good things, and I plan to pick it up soon.... even with Kendrick Lamar on there ("meh" doesn't even begin to describe my opinion of him...)
pours one out for Fife Dawg....
What's wrong with Kendrick?
Fife brings the heat on this album. So great to hear them together again.
He bores the shit out of me. He's not bad, I just don't think he's that good either. Give me Deltron, Talib, Mos Def, or anyone....
Hmmm, interesting, especially given the likes of Talib and Mos, who are very much in the same vein as Kendrick. I'd say in terms of rappers TODAY, he's easily #1. Not sure he has the discography to reach that top tier yet, but he's certainly on his way.
Something about his style just un-excites me, and I'm not sure why. But to me, Del is the gold standard by which all rappers shall be measured, and few even get close to his verbal accomplishments.
Del's a wordsmith. Love the pure lyricists.

At least he kicks the crap out of The Weeknd (just shoot me if I have to listen to him).
I'm taking the GF to see The Weeknd in April for her bday. I can take it or leave it when it comes to him, I think he relies too much on the "I do drugs and I f*ck" vibe, but to each his own.

@thanksajdotcom Free smoking if you walk outside anywhere in central or north GA, lol.
Are y'all still getting smoke down there? It's been clear in alpharetta and gwinnett since last week.
Where is the smoke coming from?
Brushfires all over n GA, TN, and n Carolina. I was up in the mountains last weekend, it was really bad. Like zero visibility.
Wow, that's crazy. That takes a lot of fires.

They're everywhere. No rain for well over a month, and we were behind for the year already.
The West Coast sends their regards.
I have a Samsung Ultra that's pretty decent, but it's a few years old and I'm constantly in fear it will explode on me at any minute.
Mentally preparing for traveling on Wednesday.

THey wanted to be sure to cover all of the important platforms.
Meh, most of us Android users are capable of learning new languages without the preschool talking head teletubby nonsense. But if I were like 5 or something, I'd be all over this....
Speak for yourself. The talking head teletubby makes learning fun!
Maybe if I ate some mushrooms this would work....
