That explains it. I only knew the term because of a few of the old heads using it when I started in the mid '90s.

"Damn! You do wonderful things for that dress." But only if I have an available exit to walk away after. That one's too forward for the actual elevator ride. Leave her an out, and also an opening.

The best German word is backfeifengezicht. It means: "a face in need of a slap/punch"

Great quote. Better book. Written by "A True American Hero."

Just an aside. I worked well over 20 years in food service as a second job. I don't think "86" is a widespread term in food service, there are some of us that would know what you meant, but not many. If I had to guess, I would guess its origins were with the Trucking industry, specifically CB/shortwave radio operators since they abbreviated a TON of phrases with numbers.

I have a Green Jello cassette tape in storage. I wasn't a huge fan, but I figured they wouldn't be able to keep that name for too long. Three Little Pigs is a good jam tho.

One thing I forgot to mention, the thing that gave it away was it was cast out of aluminum, so it was really light. Probably worth a lot more these days, since this was about 16 years ago

I need some help choosing a monitor. (lemmy.world)

Simply put I have built a gaming tower that I have no monitor that will connect with the machine only having a BIOS and no OS. As I understand it, I need something that will connect with an HDMI cable, but that seems to be either a traditional monitor or a tablet. I'm completely unsure which would be more stable, and therefore "better." I lean towards the normal static monitor over HDMI enabled tablets, but I am uncertain if that is just me being out of touch with the latest hardware.

This is the build list I used, except I doubled the RAM to 64 GB of the same type.

Thank you very much, in advance.

Well I finally got Jedi Fallen Order. Hopefully I can play it at some point. (lemmy.world)
 

I'm actually really glad that I waited until the deluxe edition was only $12.50 before I bought this game. I loaded it up and tried playing it on the settings that the game suggested and it was like playing the game in slow motion. Even once I set all of the graphics settings to the absolute lowest settings I could possibly find, for some reason in this game there is no "low setting," medium seems to be the lowest graphicals setting possible.

I'm happy that I have a game that I can play once I have an actual gaming machine, but it seems that almost all AAA games aren't capable of running on a laptop that has both 32GB of RAM, and a 4 TB SDD.

Why is it that years old games cannot play on maxed out hardware for the time?
