Has been my childhood dream to get a Wrestling Belt. Finally got this replica from WWE Shop.

So looking at neo's post about gaming setups I saw that we do not have new and updated setup thread, hence starting this, post your setup pictures here. My very old setup in 2015 Current:

If you didn't understand hindi, how did you understand I was mentioning you Movies thread mein bahut accha hindi likha hai tu aur poora Adipurush dekke aaya Probably now you have understood what I meant toh zambhalo apne aapko

summary of this thread: 1. pony#1 shares some random twitter post by a more global pony. — No response 2. Pony#1 makes another post justifying why the first post was made — Like by pony#2 3. Pony #2 joins the party adding his POV or analysis — alleged xbots arrive 4. Some alleged Xbots / misc members refute posts / try reasoning 5. More random posts by ponies. Anyone who refutes a Pony post is Zodka using an alt — @Vaibhavparrives 6. Vaibhav makes some random praising redfall 7. Ponies and Xbots unite to troll Vaibhav — Fin — Repeat 1 to 7 in an endless cycle

The initial subtlety of all the alt accounts are gone now

Long time since I posted here, here're two of my purchases during the recent amazon sale 1. LG C2 42" , replacing my trustworthy LG 32" QHD monitor which I used with my PC for close to 3 years (give or take a couple of months). PQ is stunning, but I think 42" is too big for any productive office work, not to mention the screen gets insanely bright causing eye strain from a short distance. Using it mainly for media consumption from some 40" - 50" distance and its much easier on the eyes. Dolby vision tv shows/movies on Netflix or Apple TV (apple+) still gets quite bright though. Still fiddling around with the settings to find what works the best. Pairs well with my RTX 3060ti, enabled both VRR & HDR. Starfield gives a a good ~60fps at 4K with all maxed out. Cyberpunk goes down to 30 fps at ray tracing ultra and DLSS auto. Forza horizon can't handle 4K at 60 fps with extreme settings (keeps giving video memory is full error), so might need to tune that up a bit. Star field looks stunning on the display though. I had played some initial sections on my prev LG QHD monitor, but the difference in PQ between this and my prev monitor is striking. Akila city looks so damn gorgeous !! 2. Starfield controller, to play well - starfield Apart from the cool looking aesthetics, the controller has a very good rubber grip making it so easy / comfortable. Hard to go back to the regular controller after using this. Resubscribed to PC gamepass to play this game, thought will finish it in a month or so, but looks like this is gonna take close to 2-3 months to finish and there's cities:skylines 2 releasing soon as well on PC gamepass. So I think the sub is going to stay for some time.

To continue using this account. Fill in the blank. Indie ______ ?

Diwali came early, Was looking for this piece since a long time. Grabbed a really good deal. But man what a brilliant statue. Now the Harder part would be displaying this on my shelf.

Thread is too silent.

Custom sleeved cables, Keycaps with RK 84, Dr Strange statue

Bought myself a new watch after a very long time.

Pahan ke pose maarke pic lo.

My Corner of gaming nirvana.

Alanah putting the rabid fanboys in their place! The extremes on each side are inherently just a sorry bunch of losers who are frustrated and have nothing of value going on in their lives -- always ranting away at empty walls, coming up with conspiracy theories like those doomsday-bunker idiots and what not.

Life is funny sometimes. The Bad : I was in hospital for a week down with dengue. During that time, there were points when I spent nearly 18 hours burning up and none of the drugs seemed to be doing anything. I hit rock bottom at one point, quite sure I was going to kick the bucket. I just could not see the damn thing ending. I remember copying down all my passwords to my bank accounts and other stuff for my wife (she was suitably pissed of course), yeah I was that down the dumps. The Better : Finally got back home, still weak but thankful to be alive. Tried to resume work a day later and was told by my boss to take a few extra days off. Everyone at work was super supportive. I've been working for 20+ years in various companies and I've never been so overwhelmed by the concern and support I received from everyone. This in a job where I've not met a single person at any point face to face. 100% remote. The Best : Eventually started back at work after 2 weeks away. Was pulled into a meet with the higher ups. Turns out I'm being promoted to lead the QA team. So yeah, from the depths of despair to floating on a cloud. What a ride.

This is gonna be just One person thread

Went a bit overboard but HK prices are so good Entire Super Mario figure collection for sets 2/3/4 and some of 5 and 6: Some pics from an absolute gem of a Lego shop in HK - it's a Lego mecca. They have some of the rarest sets in history !

Got this Apple Watch Ultra on my recent trip to the US for around $650.

Got this for my daughter because she wanted to learn And this for me ?

Good grief how did this game get past QA? In the short time I spent with it, it crashed thrice, I got stuck in a window, some npcs teleported through a container, a box, and don't get me started on using a controller on windows. Holy f**k, I got a migraine trying to strafe and turn. It's bonkers it's such an easy thing to catch, I'm amazed no one flagged it as a small thing to fix. I punched a dude and he literally disappeared (took a while for me to find him). Turns out he had bounced off the ground and fell around a box behind me. I spent a good part of it just punching dudes, because the AI is dogshit and you don't need a gun, at least initially. I'm not ready to say whether it's a bad game (it probably is) but in its current state for my sanity I'm going to call it quits.

Sharing a glimpse from our boys trip to Hong Kong. We had a lot of fun, some crazy adventures - including gambling until 5 in the morning at a casino in Macau, getting flagged at immigration when re-entering HK from Macau and getting questioned in separate rooms, and finally taking a wrong bus 3 hours before our flight that borderline took us out of HK and to the Chinese border near Shenzhen. Will be telling these stories for years to come. But despite the (mis)adventures, an incredible trip nontheless. Skylines, ocean, mountains - Hong Kong's got it all and every element is worth experiencing. Also, this felt like an accomplishment since I could pay for my entire trip as a result of being an employed adult now. To more adventures in 2024, happy new year folks!

Holy sh*t Alanah just reviewed Ank in the midst of all his review talks

2023. The most Jaded year of gaming. A year where Hogwarts Legacy gathered so much hate for ‘first world country reasons’ yet everyone secretly played it. (Data indicates) same year, another awesome game released on a specific platform and rather than celebrating it, everyone trying to tear it apart for….reasons. Everyone wants these games to do something ‘they’ want rather than accepting what they actually are. I partially blame game journalism and media for aggravating gamers. Just enjoy games in your respective platforms and let this thread die. Too much negativity on twitter and game journalism to begin with. Dont make it a norm. Stop comparing. Games suppose to be fun and a mean for escapism from shitty reality.

4th Country to Land on moon and First country to land on South Pole of Moon. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.engadget.com/amp/india-is-the-first-country-to-land-at-the-moons-south-pole-133322596.html https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-66594520.amp Congratulations to ISRO and to all Indians. Truly a historic achievement made by brilliant scientists at ISRO

Ive been trying to lose weight for a long long time. This year i started taking it very seriously. Long story short, from a combination of diet, fasting, walking and exercise, managed to lose 20kgs. First time in the last 10-15 years i am at a healthy BMI

Got my first ever lego!

That's because MS primarily makes controllers and Sony focuses on making games

Couldn't stand the mediocricity of iPhone anymore, picked up S23 Ultra, and my initial observations are extremely positive, what is wrong with Samsung, how is One UI so smooth. Now need to dispose off Apple watch 7
