Even windows is going to be pumped full of ads. YouTube is costing Google money. Costs more to maintain than it brings in. This is unsurprising.
Some folks get Netflix. I get YT premium. I spent most of my days on it til recently, because my headset broke.

Have you tried Freetube, Reaper?
Nope, never heard of it.
So as some of you know, I used to be pretty active in Morrowind's Tamriel Rebuilt/Project Tamriel mods. In addition to some quest design, I also wrote an in-game book, "A Pearl Betwixt Empires", describing the islands of Cathnoquey in the Padomaic Ocean. This expands on the semi-canonical lore of the 2nd Edition Pocket Guide to the Empire.
Towards a Dragon'd Sea: Cathnoquey
A Pearl Betwixt Empires
I just found out that someone created their own mod based on what I wrote! Specifically, a flotilla-city of the Chimeri-quey. The flotilla-city concept originates from the 2nd Edition PGE; all I did was expand on it. But that detail did provide some inspiration for this modder.
Here's a video from the Morrowind Modding Showcase

Very clever - a moving village of connected ships!
Neat.
I started playing ESO again and I don't know if I can keep up with it. I haven't played since Morrowind so I restarted and I have no dlc, no other chapters, and feel so behind and like trash tier.
I also don't know anyone.
Bleh.

Saki, I imagine it can feel overwhelming if you don't stay up with everything. Just be patient. Chorrol has an ESO guild. Though not very active, it has chapters in both PCNA and PCEU. We even have a subforum here for ESO.
I feel so left out now, dunno why..

If you join the guild, you can easily see when other members are online. Helping someone catch up is always a good excuse to repeat content without the pressures of making progress yourself.
I just need the @name to send invite(s).

Have you tried Freetube, Reaper?
Nope, never heard of it.
It's an app you download to your desktop. It mirrors Youtube so it has all the videos completely without any ads. I in fact have to use it now as I got the popup directly that blocks everything. It's not better than youtube but it works in a pinch. I'd suggest downloading it and try if you have the same problems as me.
Still Crappy about the ads thing bird 
And my tag is @Sakiri, ofc.

I didn't mind them at all way back in the day when they were simply a banner at the bottom of the video which you could click away after awhile. During which time the video played as normal btw. But now, man. I don't want to waste my life away watching all those ads. It's bad enough watching the videos ffs!
Lol.
Yeah I haven't watched YouTube in days.
No sound. T.T

I will invite on both servers, as you are entitled to use both. Many of us play on NA and EU, as each has its busy and slack times, and they differ.
I'll hop to EU to accept later maybe, I'm so dead tired atm lol.

I haven't touched ESO in a VERY long time. I've kinda lost interest in the TES franchise altogether
.
I had a lot of fun with ESO, thanks mainly to the good people here in the Chorrol guild. I just got to a point in my life that I couldn’t devote enough time to it for it to be worthwhile. As for TES series in general, it’s just been so long between entries that I can definitely understand people moving on, but I am very curious to see how good the next game is. Will the backing of Micro$oft’s financial might make a huge difference? Time will tell.
Oblivion FTW 
MicroShaft better not hose TES6.
All I gotta say.
All I gotta say.
Well, they can't touch my Oblivion or Fallout 3 at least 
Also; high, Saki!

I've been hearing mixed things about Starfield, though time will tell if it eventually finds a place for itself in the pantheon (it's not uncommon these days for games to take time, patching, and DLC to really become good). Like a lot of big studios, Bethesda's a bit of a victim of its own success. Their last cultural hit was Skyrim, and while subsequent games did well financially, they've received mixed receptions from the community. The problem might be that Bethesda's trying to duplicate what they think made Skyrim successful, but struggling in figuring out exactly what those elements were.
I suspect TES VI will do pretty well, but won't achieve the same status as Skyrim simply because it'll still be in the older game's shadow, and because the industry has changed a great deal since 2011.
Possibly. I don't know if they can top Skyrim, tbh.
Also, hi birb.

It seems Freetube is indeed my new Youtube as they won't stop the popup which I hear is actually an illegal thing within the EU. And I'm not talking Star Wars or Marvel here.

I rather doubt they can. You'll never be able to top Skyrim with more Skyrim; you need to offer something new. But they're too invested in making lightning strike the same place twice for that to happen.
Ha, yeah.
OH bird? Not heard that.

Power just went out.
That's why I got a generator from Biltema; in case power goes out at cottage for extended period of time. I've tried it with coffee maker and computer and they both run fine on it. Don't need much else honestly...
Sorry, Saki.
Mirocu, I completely agree with and endorse your power priorities.

I haven't touched TESO in a long time. I've gotten so behind on DLC's I just lost interest. Now I play Conan Exiles and there was much rejoicing...yay.
And I just keep getting back to Star Wars: Rebellion
I'm behind on dlc too.
Friend surprised me.
He asked which house I had on EU. It's the harbor house near Gnisis.
He bought it for me. Furnished.
He's since gotten me Greymoor and Murkmire too. So I have other storylines to do now.

O.....k...... 
I'm sorry birb?
That was just me not understanding anything
mirocu doesn’t speak ESO.
Swedish, English and very small amounts of Japanese but yeah, not ESO
Lol.
Basically my friend bought me stuff for the game so I can do stuff with him that was added in it. Dlc and stuff.

Kinda...it's GBB (gas blowback) meaning it'll shoot just like the real thing and doesn't have a gear box like the AEG does. Can't wait for the 29th of December! Late Merry Christmas gift and early Happy Birthday present for me

Decided to take out my BB rifle for some plinking.

Wow that sounded really snappy, I'm impressed! Almost like how fullautos with silencers (suppressors) are portrayed on film. Does it take 12g CO2 or an 88g? Also; it is the crosman AR-15 lookalike, right?
