General Gaming A good old fashioned 'post your setup' thread

Makes sense. I know that feeling. -

So do you just never close that door? -

The lack of clearance for ventilation I see for some of your guys' apparatuses is giving me anxiety. -
Kvelertak - Splid Norwegian hard rock that blends modernity with some 90s alt edge and 70s rock n' roll grooviness. Fires in the Distance - Echoes From Deep November Gothic and doomy melodeath with lots of pianos and synths. Myrkur - Folkesange Not white nationalist but #1 with white nationalists. Beautiful Nordic folk tunes about the area's culture and history. Abysmal Dawn - Phylogenesis No frills no gimmicks just straight up death metal packed to the brim with groovy, crushing guitar riffs. Testamant - Titans of Creation I have no idea how guys who have been doing this for almost 40 years still have so much gas in the tank. Intronaut - Fluid Existential Inversions Off-beat grooves and long instrumental sections punctuate catchy and harmonious dark melodies. Cloudkicker - Solitude Fuzzy instrumental grooves with shovels full of melody heaped on top. In the sample song below... the way the song builds into the last guitar riff in the last 45 seconds or so of the song is just orgasmic. And the album does that quite a bit. Protest the Hero - Palimpsest Written before all the nastiness of 2020 but still somehow all about 2020--racism, shitty government, disease, and death--because white people are the fucking worst. Also the music is just awesome. Elder - Omens An absolutely epic, progressive masterpiece full of catchy riffs and down-tuned grooves with gobs and gobs of classic rock vibe. Unleash the Archers - Abyss A little blurb couldn't possibly tell how much I love this album. It ticks every single box that gives me a musical boner: ✓ Metal ✓ Longer songs ✓ Grooves ✓ Melody ✓ Variation ✓ Concept album Vocalist Brittney Slayes absolutely brings it on this album. She has incredible range. The guitar players added a seventh string and then proceed to use all seven strings which is always a plus. These guys used to be pigeon-holed into the power metal genre but that was never quite right. And this album above all their others shows all that they can do... which is pretty much everything. And it all works. The only thing I would complain about on this album is that their bass player left the band between this release and their previous full-length. That component on their previous albums did a lot of work whereas here it's just tracking the guitars and a little buried in the mix.

Get a CPAP for CPAC (cause it's a snoozer)

With the rapey-ness and everything -
My boss asked me "do you think you could work from home? We need to see if we're capable of doing so should it be necessary." And I was like "of fucking course I can because it's 2020 and our platform is web based there was never any need to be in the office to begin with." Then the next day I'm working from home and not even two hours into the workday a mass email goes out saying "everybody is working from home starting right now GTFO of the office." That was probably the moment for me. It happened a little before the NBA shutdown which was the next "oh shit" moment for me.

I'd say for some, yeah. But definitely not all. Orlando is the worst offender IMO of that. At my last job I traveled there quite frequently for work and every time a trip came up there I'd just be annoyed because I knew I wasn't going to get great food or see anything interesting. But I liked going to places like Austin or Atlanta or even Phoenix in the sunbelt. Like, I'm sure there are great places to eat and fun and interesting things to do in Orlando if you dig and search. And hey, I just traveled to Disney World last month with the family. Orlando is great for that. But I don't feel like I need to dig and search for great food or interesting things in other cities.

Damn. My best friend actually had the same experience a few months ago. He ended up staying. But his company wasn't laying people off either. I'll be curious to know what you decide. -

Preordered this album. Something about their sense of humor and the 80/20 old school/modern ratio really turns me on. Rock hard right now. -

@Keyser_Soze That Harakiri album is fuckin' fire. Got the vinyl on Friday. It's so good. My favorite track is probably "Once Upon a Winter".
