86? That's like the double of our entire company management combined! You'll do good.

I'm no expert, but I'll give you my two cents. I play bass guitar and there are two types of connectors between amplifier and speaker cabinet. First one is plain barrel jack, second one is Neutrik. I've been talking with local amp maker and he said something like this: "jack is fine with low wattage, but with more power you'd do better with neutrik - it has much larger contact area " So I believe this is similar problem. We were speaking like 400-600W of power where jack starts to be worse. How about vacuum cleaner or kettle? Or similar appliance that can do 2kW... Small contact and higher drain means more heat generated in that spot.

Nobody recommended Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines yet. You should definitely try this one. It's a bit like old Deus Ex in gameplay, has excellent atmosphere and soundtrack. One of my top recommendations.

It never really crossed my mind there's even a possibility to not having something to read. Thinking about it a bit more, I see few reasons for my immediate thought.

First I'm quite slow reader myself. I read rougly 10 books a year so I don't burn through as many books as some other more avid readers.

Second I read mostly SF/F and there's just so many good books and series for people interested in this genre. And while not everything is perfect, I'm probably much more tolerant to some imperfections as a genre fan.

Third, I read in my (non english) native tongue and while we're definitely limited in quantity, it's usually a bit of a filter so most of bad and trash books are excluded. Who would pay to translate and print shitty book anyway?

We have two good local sites that helps. One is basically like "local goodreads", the other is strictly SF/F fansite. Both have user ratings and reviews which help a lot. Also my best friend has similar taste in books, so we often recommend our findings to each other.

I love that show, saw it plenty of times from start to finish...

Since this came to effect, there's nothing forbidding these authors to push update which has no new content except for maybe main menu "we're still alive" sign...

Well, Tim Sweeny can suck his own wiener then. I have hundred(s) of games on Epic and I haven't spent a dime there. And still won't spend, because I have principles.
