Gilligan's Bar was the best fix for a beach without paying to be there, other than buying beers/food (which I had no problems doing).
What would be a good alternative now that Gilligan's Bar is no more (sadly)?
For a year and a half (eighteen months of my life) I’ve been sitting here squinting at my monitor like a Victorian child, wondering why my "beast" of a PC looked like it was running on a prayer and a hamster wheel. I’ve been out here struggling with an HDMI cable, convinced that 99 Hz was the peak from my old rig.
I finally did a "diagnosis" because my games looked like finger paintings. That’s when I discovered the DisplayPort. I plugged it in, hit 175 Hz, and realized I’ve been playing in slow motion since 2024.
I don't just feel stupid; I feel like I bought a Ferrari and spent two years driving it in school zones. 😞🤡
Meeting someone IRL as a 47M has not been great in Old Town VA. Most women I see are already in a relationship and usually on a date in this romantic part of Virginia.
Where does one go to meet single women in this small part of town?
Do I have to go back to OLD? Please .... anything but that. 😩
47M I’ve spent most of my time on single-player titles, but I'm looking to get out more and find spots where other gamers 30s/40s actually hang out in-person. I'd love to find a place where people hang who enjoy this hobby as much as I do. Does anyone know which local venues or events tend to attract a more mature, single crowd of gaming enthusiasts?
Continues Bar & The Board Room have been good. Anywhere else?!
Update: Found a few to visit!
