  1. Cerberus declined the mug, as he has opted out of prizes which I didn't consider. Yusuf_stew, you've won a mug! Please pm me with your shipping address and let me know if you want the 1.0 or 2.0 version of the mug.
  2. Thanks for the help you two. I'll pm both of them now.
  3. Prize winners: Fluxmaven $50 paypal PaperClip $50 paypal ExtremehwCFP your choice of mug from the store PayPal winners please pm me with your PayPal email. ExtremehwCFP, please pm me 1. Do you want the 1.0 or 2.0 mug, and 2. Your shipping address. Thanks for the cooperation guys.
  4. Yes, my wife has a MSI 3060 Ventus and it was running the entire time.
  5. I hate you Flux. Lol. You steal 3rd from me last month in the last hour, and this time you beat me by like 150k points. Sigh. Good job Anyway, I'll pick winners for the prizes later today.
  6. Agreed on all points. And yes, despite being a 2009 game, UT3 still looks great now. Especially the Deathmatch maps.
  7. I pretty much don't play fps games, I suck, but I freaking LOVE UT and especially Onslaught mode. UT3 was great even without community maps, the new alien vehicles were really fun, but UT2004 was like... Just perfect.
  8. Update: I am scheduled for hip surgery on September 8th. I will have to wear a brace and be on crutches for two weeks, as well as do physical therapy twice a week for 12 weeks. After 6 weeks I will have an office visit with my Doctor, and if the surgery on the left helps then I will be sent for a CAT scan on the right hip and get scheduled for surgery on it with the same conditions I stated above, after surgery. I believe the procedure I'm having is called a hip arthroscopy. There was a really bad f up and issue with the imaging, Northwestern health sent the CAT scan data to Stryker in the wrong format. This caused a significant delay of about 6 weeks instead of 2 for my Doctor to have the 3D model of my hip. Either way, I have quite a large mountain to climb, but I'll do it if I can sit and not have pain in the hips. I may not make a full recovery til March, and I may be doing physical therapy through then.
  9. If that's the case, running a 3060 for foldathons myself and seeing how long the WUs take compared to my 4090, I will lower the prize requirement to 5 WUs. Wasn't really taking into account how long modern WUs take because the long ones you're probably getting are the ones that give me like 1.3m points. My 4090 chews through those in an hour and a half. Hope this helps and remember, it's random draw still! GL guys!
  10. Good job so far guys, really rooting for you all especially to beat team OCN. I tried y-cruncher pi 2.5b on my rig, but because I have an X3D chip it is PBO only, no manual ratio. The score was like 40 sec and it gave me an error too, so Flux's subs are way better. Sorry I can't help
  11. White Peony | Rishi Tea & Botanicals RISHI-TEA.COM White Peony, also known by the traditional name Bai Mu Dan, is a popular style of white tea made of young tea... Get a tea ball, or you could do like me and use a French press if you have one. Highly recommended. It's good with or without honey. And damn, drinking every day of the week? Even when I was younger I would just binge at house parties til I vomited. Lol.
  12. Pretty funny. Lol If you guys want to start a separate drinking thread, go ahead. I don't drink anymore as I take benzos, but I used to drink.
  13. Got ENTERPRISE permission to do glitch art of our awesome admin. Sorry, the black and red one is more red than anything because of the way I do these, having black show up just doesn't work, it ends up grey. You've been glitched, man.
  14. Updated 2nd post with a few links. Please suggest more, especially for coffee.
  15. Was interested in Kicking Horse coffee and so just ordered a bag of Smart Ass and a bag of Three Sisters off Amazon. Living in the northern Midwest they probably don't stock these at the local grocery stores. Got em off Amazon, one was $9 and the other was $13. Definitely giving them a shot. Also, @ENTERPRISE@damric@Fluxmaven what powers you guys up in the morning or on long nights?
  16. If you made it for me that way and told me to drink it that way, I would gladly accept and listen. As I kind of stated in my second post in the thread, I really don't know squat about coffee and I drink what is essentially sugary junk, lol. Though much more rarely now. Tea is what I know a lot about and can give recommendations on. And actually have some class with. It's great to see the depth of knowledge here and people's methods of making coffee, though, I think collectively the posters so far could definitely share recommendations on coffee to try or machines to make it with. I'd also like to get some links to coffee companies online, good coffee makers or espresso and cappuccino makers, and so forth into the 2nd *reserved* post.
  17. Thanks for the posts guys. Yeah, I only do looseleaf tea and my favorite is Rishi White Peony (Bai Mu Dan - Chinese tea). It's a white tea, and has a very earthy taste. It is made from tea leaf buds and not processed or oxidized like a green tea. Good with or without honey. My coffee is just drip but from a higher end Cuisinart machine with a single cup brewer. I used to make it in a french press as well, but generally find it too strong that way nowadays. I make my tea in a french press, mainly because it makes enough for two 10oz or so cups. I will look into tealish. Thanks. Eventually I'd like the reserved post to have links to coffee/tea vendor websites. As well as recommendations. I too love the smell of fresh ground coffee, though there's no nostalgia for me or anything. Did you grow up in a coffee shop or something?
  18. As for me, when it comes to coffee I have one cup of either 8 o'clock french vanilla or Dunkin french vanilla every morning. I used to do two but recently figured out it was giving me bad anxiety every morning with two. And of course, I have a ton of coffee in the fridge. Tanzanian Peaberry by EVP coffee (recommended). And a bunch of junkie ones like 8 O'clock brand Mocha Macchiato, Caramel Macchiato and Berres Brothers Mocha mint. We have at least 15 of these junkie things but its way cheaper than getting Starbucks every morning. I take my coffee with sugar and milk. When it comes to tea, I am way more of an afficiando and have several teas I rotate through, usually making it in the afternoon. I drink it for the health benefits, but also because I like it. I am a very big fan of Rishi tea which is based near me in Milwaukee and imports tea from all over the world. I've had every grade of tea- white, green, oolong, pu erh and black. I don't have any oolong currently but have everything else, as well as masala chai. I also like the company Harney and Sons as they are quite a bit cheaper than Rishi, yet have good quality teas in larger amounts. So if anyone is a tea fan feel free to recommend stuff to me and I'll do the same for you.
