I'm looking for a PC for my grandparents. All they use it for is online banking, Facebook games, and an occasional youtube link. Right now they're using a 7 or 8 year old Intel something that was only a couple hundred even back then. But now it is slow as shit and the power supply is getting wonky.


I'm looking at Chromeboxes and in theory that seems pretty perfect for them, but their monitor doesn't have an HDMI port. Something similar. In the $200 max range is all they really need.

Honestly it sounds like they need an android tablet or old ipad.

Everyone Should watch space battleship yamato 2199

Orton's quality depends greatly upon what he's given and how much he cares. Despite how shitty they booked him in 2013/2014 he was pretty great on his own merits.

In the $200 range they would probably be better off with a tablet.

Pretty much. Old people seem to have an easier time with tablets, and they can't download blatantly fake email attachments.

I'll watch Harlock instead

Go to Newegg and check their prebuilt section, then make it so it shows you prices low from high. The first non refurbished one will suit them fine.

the new harlock,movie that's on Netflix is pretty dope. Highly recommend

 

[Arrowgigantic]

They have cables that convert HDMI to DVI.

Woof. I just remembered that Reigns has only been back since TLC. What a rough few weeks he's had. Definitely needs another build up year before he's ready for the Wrestlemania main event. I can't think of one meaningful single match he has had. I'm starting to think it will be him and Big Show at Wrestlemania this year.

 

[Data West]

Ramenman is the GOAT anime wrestler. Bro legit shook the universe on his debut

 

[serenewarfare]

This is my favorite thing Orton has ever done.

 

[strobogo]

I thought about getting them both a cheap tablet but they don't understand the concept. They do better with a real mouse, keyboard, and monitor, at a desk with a chair.

 

[Frecklestein]

I need to read Ultimate Muscle/ Kinnikuman

4 lyfe 4 lyfe

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

knew it was gonna be the orton star jump~

I like him a lot but I think he really needs that one storyline to make this stage of his career really something.

hard to remember that during legend killer he was actually midcard.

what about the orton storyline against hunter

he was in evolution too before legend killer

imo the guys career is pretty memorable

Yup. He needs that push now!!

 

[Masquerader]

Guys! Quick. Let's do something.

Post a gif of what is, in your opinion, the best camera work in a match. Doesn't matter what it is, so long as it actually adds to the moment/move/whatever.

Here, I'll start:

 

[Anth0ny]

one piece is the GOAT manga

anime pacing is bad, especially the later stuff. unfortunate because the voice actors are legends and music is great. manga is way better.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

I still think it's dumb Orton lost the No. 1 contender match to Cena and then got written off tv for three months to film some lousy movie.

I wanted Orton and Lesnar, god damn it.

Always loved the framing of this one:

 

[Alucard]

Stro, have you watched enough Sopranos to tell us whether or not Tony is a TMF?

Fuck watermarks.

 

[Pavaloo]

Not a fan of the zooming, but the hard cut really makes Orton look swift.

This entire segment was actually really well framed too.

 

[Plywood]

I can't stand when they zoom or cut on the impacts, it's like fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkk youuuuuuuu.

 

[strobogo]

Stro, have you watched enough Sopranos to tell us whether or not Tony is a TMF?

Definitely not. He's an emotional wreck, prone to depression, panic attacks, and occasionally crying. He also fucks up everything around him, but not in the TMF way. When he's angry, he's TMF, but over all I can't give him the nod due to his emotional issues.


Furio is TMF. That mother fucker is ICE COLD. More than anyone on any crew.

 

[Data West]

Remember the Attitude Era PPV wobbly camera?

 

[Frecklestein]

Fuck watermarks.

Soooo good.

 

[Man God]

The best camera work of all time would have to be one of the various Wrestlemania walk down the gigantic aisle with Hogan or maybe Bret. Some of those are god tier bits of film work.

 

[Heroman]

You're a bad show

You know it true.

 

[Jimmy King]

Not camera movement but -- Perfect low angle with the Mania sign in the background.

 

[serenewarfare]

One of the few times the cut helps sell the impact so much more.

 

[Masquerader]

Fuck watermarks.

That was the brief moment in which I thought (in all my hope) 'Holy crap, Bray might win this!'

Not a fan of the zooming, but the hard cut really makes Orton look swift.

Ugh, the zoom's so annoying. Makes it look so comical. That cut was amazing, though.

The low angle helps a lot.

One of my favourites is when CM Punk is kneeling over Undertaker, urn in hand, although I can't seem to find that gif.

 

[bean breath]

Why are you guys cyber bullying BronsonLee?

 

[Data West]

Hogan's Uncensored entrance is probably my favorite entrance of all time. Even without any crazy cool Muta type stuff

I can't find it to make a full gif so it's got to be chopped up versions

 

[strobogo]

Here are some examples of terrible usage of cutting at impact:

There's so much potential for cool moments when walking down the aisle, and they just don't do them any more. A pity. :c

Where's heel?

Oh, you.

that slow reveal... masterful on vince's part and the camera man's

I love how evil he looks. Just so damn evil. As in, the only genuinely intimidating authority figure ever.

The peak of Hogan as a heel, imo. Great stuff.

Here are some examples of terrible usage of cutting at impact:

Additionally, I guess a little bit of zoom would be good every now and then. Thems some nasty hits, and they sure don't seem like they are at all, thanks to the camera.

Hogan was so cool then. That entrance, dope.

Hearing Stardust speak again on Smackdown has me finally nailing down what his promo style reminds me of, a campy 60's Adam West era Batman villain, I think this makes things better.

He's actually supposed to be Jim Carey's Riddler to Goldies Two Face from the same movie. They actually cut a promo and it's EXACTLY how they were in the movie. Pretty great.

He's meant to be Riddler. It's fantastic.

EDIT: Beaten down like a quad.

Oh yeah that works to, still the way he speaks really channels that classic goofy vibe.
I still say Cody deserves better than his current position.

Man...Wrestle Kingdom 95 must have been when Inoki went full MMA because this event is meh :/.

Hollywood Hogan was never, ever cool.

Earl Hebner is such a shitty referee. His pin counts suck. His count outs suck. He sucks.
