    With or without her, it wasn't enough to lift my opinion of JJ.

    It was disjointed and hopped around but it wasn't THAT bad. Gal Godot's Wonder Woman was pretty good. I like this Wonder Woman. Batfleck? His fighting-style definitely had that Arkham-trilogy vibe. He actually was a pretty good Bats. Jesse Eisenberg's Luthor is definitely a psychopath. I like it. It's nice to see a different Lex. It was different and I will give them that. Yep. Now on to the spoilerish stuff. That's all I can think of now. It could have been better pacing wise but it wasn't THAT bad. The story was there, but just needs help in putting it together. Hopefully this R-rated director's-extended version clears up some of these issues. Yes, this movie is divisive. It gets us talking about it, does it not?

    OK. It was a good season. Foggy's character was so much more tolerable this season. Karen's character started to go in the opposite direction for me. Some of her scenes seemed to drag. Jon Bernthal made a good Punisher but the use of his character in the show didn't really satisfy me enough. Charlie Cox and Élodie Yung definitely played off each other well. I liked their scenes. It's nice that they were able to get Vincent D'Onofrio back and the scene with Cox was probably the best scene this season. Now my gripes. (may be spoilerish) I still like Daredevil over Jessica Jones. The latter show only had David Tennet and Mike Colter (Sweet Christmas) being the bright spots of that show. And they were only supporting characters.

    This whole season has been OK at best. Last night's episode was filler anyways. Concerning Jesse's watch going off when Wally approached, was it in Arrow or Flash that mentioned that one metahuman that was never around Central City when the particle accelerator went off? I can't remember.

    We have a "Feedback" section if you have questions regarding the site. This thread is for Delta news. Keep it that way. If you don't, keep in mind my bans are normally permanent. Graham asked for simple summary. You can't provide one because you weren't there? That's fine. You didn't listen to the podcast either and cannot give a summary for something you haven't done yet? That is also perfectly fine. Leave it at that.

    They're sticking with it as the drug for now. They may bring in the actual Speed Formula (watch the math geeks say WTF when it shows up) at a later point. Regarding Wally, I'm not expecting any movement until the season finale. I do wish there was some lead-in to next week's Supergirl episode from this week's Flash. Unless that happens later when Zoom finds the way to travel between Earths and we're seeing this as a ball of timey-whimey.

    Oh, they're finding more ways to sneak in more Windows 10 nag screens. Not that most savy users touch IE in any way shape or form, but trust me, MS is finding more and more ways to nag you.

    Yeah, it takes this and blocking KB3035583 every few months.

    I should note that while I haven't had issues with SSDs, I have issues elsewhere. My previous board did not take well to overclocking just a tiny bit and did have voltage issues draining the watch battery several times. Eventually the on-board sound died. Which lead me to my Z97. It is more stable on the overclocking until the last BIOS update, which caused a bunch of memory errors. Reverting back a few revisions cleared that issue, but now it has issues while booting the OS every few reboots. As with Mike, it's not earth shattering for me to replace my system now, but this will be my last Asus board for a long time.

    Are you purchasing digital released music? If so, they will not accept foreign credit cards.

    Really wish I didn't need nightvision to watch the outdoor night scenes. At least Foggy doesn't feel as annoying this season.
  12. azrael
    I have not had any issues with my Asus Z97 with an 840 Pro or my 850 Pro. But as mentioned, your mileage may vary.

    It's been X-men vs. Xmen for a long time. Mutants are always fighting each other.

    As technoblue mentioned, I too would toss the WD Reds and go with either a single Black or 1TB SSD (bump up the 950 to a 1TB drive). Reserve the Reds for a NAS and use that to house your media and backups. You will not need your beast computer to be on and streaming by going with a NAS. Yes, you can copy drive to drive. You are basically copying your disk and then copying to a new one. Ideally, you should go either to a same sized drive/partition or larger drive. It's safer. Going to a smaller drive requires shrinking your partition and some cleaning to shrink it down. technoblue mentioned one that can do it. Others are Acronis True Image, Clonezilla, Paragon, EaseUS, etc. But if you go to a smaller partition (or size) on the SSD, I would do some cleanup on the original before moving to the SSD. Fortunately, there are plenty of guides for this.

    Mod Note jvmacross. Dobber. Don't start. =============== 2019.....Jeebus, he's going to be 77 by the time this movie comes out.

    I will say most computers have an average shelf-life of 3 years, depending on usage. After 3 years, the update-itch comes. Obviously it comes faster for laptops, but desktops can go on for about 5 years before things really catch up. With that in mind, Ivy Bridge still has a lot of power to it and will likely hold out for another year, maybe more, depending on use. But as SchizophrenicMC and technoblue mentioned, everything around it is moving on. And if you want to future-proof, it's best to look at the rest of the organs, not just the brain. USB 3.1 support, for starters, is definitely something I would look at if future-proofing.

    Well, at least this show will have not shortage of potential harem-endings.

    frothymug, as the saying goes, your mileage may vary. You may get an ASUS board that exhibits no problems. You may get one that causes nothing but heart ache.

    I'm gonna second mikeszekely on the ASUS boards. My experience with them lately hasn't been good. I do some minor overclocking and my ASUS boards would occasionally freak out on me. Nothing bad, but annoying. I'll be steering away from ASUS boards on my next upgrade. I also will back the 970 GPU upgrade. But at the same time, I'm not running a 4k monitor or a command center of monitors, just a simple 2-monitor setup. The 970 more than meets my needs.

    Recall that I asked about VR headsets a couple pages back. And that's why I ask about these things. Damn you Valve. Damn you.
  21. azrael
    Yeah, it does look awkward. Whether or not that will be fixed in the final product, I don't know.
  22. azrael
    That would screw with his semi-impaired peripheral vision even more...I would hate it if the shutters closed more at the wrong moment.
  23. azrael
    Wait for it. They likely will not need it during the first few episodes.

    So they went with the Romita/Ditko-look. CGI big eyes. No. Just no. It just looks silly. Deadpool did it better. And strips on the suit. No. Just no. Suit webbing could stand out a bit more. The Raimi-suit and TASM 2's suit still look better in that respect.
