Haha, he looks just like Katalenić.

Btw, great UFC night.

Two brutal KOs... both the guy and the girl were out before they even hit the canvas. Belal Muhammad pulled off an insane comeback too, just choked him out...

The crowd is solid, energy is high.

If Belal Muhammad pulls off two more wins, he’s gonna be a massive superstar.

He looked good handling all that pressure while B.B. was talking trash...

Fuck Dana White: negotiations, contracts, coke, and hookers in Martial Arts & Combat Sports ·
Look, the UFC is just a company that puts on fight events, but they act like they’re some massive corporate employer.

It's like, I'm your boss, but you're just a day laborer. You don't get benefits, you don't have a formal contract, nothing. Yet, somehow, you still have to sign some paper saying you won't go work for my neighbor from Monday to Friday. It's ridiculous...

Man, these guys are out here signing these shady-ass contracts that would probably get tossed out of any US court instantly, but these fighters are broke. They don't have the cash to take on a mega-corporation in a legal battle...

Nothing is going to change here as long as every fighter on the planet is dreaming about being the UFC champion. There's maybe ten champions, but hundreds of fighters... 2% make the real money, the rest are just struggling to survive.

They operate like a bottom-tier company that pays peanuts and expects you to work three shifts, 24/7. Companies like that don't change their ways as long as people are begging for jobs. One guy leaves, another walks in. A company never goes under just because its best worker quit. And the UFC won't either.

Until fighters realize the pay is pathetic compared to the slave-like conditions and the actual beatings they take, nothing changes. And honestly? That’s probably never gonna happen.

The UFC brand keeps growing, and there will always be kids who think that belt is worth more than all the money in the world. But once they wake up in 10 or 15 years and realize a belt is just a piece of metal, the UFC won't even need them anymore. They'll be washed up, old, and sitting on records full of losses, so the company will just move on to the next young stars like Sugar, Pimblet, or Makhachev...
They don't need "potential," they manufacture it...

Forget Conor. A guy like that comes along once in a century—someone who actually becomes bigger than the organization itself...

So, how am I supposed to check that?

Between the pandemic, being bored out of my mind, and all that other crap, I figured I’d hop on Steam and grab a game just to have something to do... you know, just to kill some time..

And get this, I buy Medal of Honor Airborne, right? It's from 2007. I know my laptop isn't exactly a beast, but hey, if I bought it back in 2016, it should be able to handle stuff from 2007, right? Surely.

Anyway, no way in hell. Drivers are installed. Tried updating them, but it says everything is up to date and I'm good to go.

I can't even launch the damn game. It stutters so hard I can barely move my mouse... it's insane. There is zero chance of actually playing this.

So I'm asking you guys, is this normal?

Here's what I'm working with:

Dell Inspiron 5795 laptop

Intel Core i5 6200u CPU
8.00GB RAM
64-bit OS

Intel HD Graphics 520 and AMD Radeon M5 335

Someone please tell me—are these graphics cards seriously such total garbage that I can't play anything... like, absolutely nothing... I've mentioned this before when I tried hooking my phone up to the TV via HDMI... the cursor lags on the TV screen too... but whatever, forget the TV... the point is I can't play anything at all...

F1 2015? Same story. No chance. Stutters like crazy, drives me nuts... and so on. Look, I don't really know much about this stuff, maybe the laptop is just straight-up trash and can't handle anything, but I honestly thought it should at least run some old games without breaking a sweat..

Is this normal... does anyone have any advice?? Maybe someone could jump on TeamViewer and fix something or I don't even know...

Please?
IPTV in Germany: Troubleshooting and fixes in IT Support ·
Hey everyone,

So, like the title says, let's talk about this whole IPTV mess.

I'll start with my own disaster. I've got an LG Smart TV hooked up via Ethernet with a solid 50mbps connection.

I downloaded the Smart IPTV app—the SSI app—and started buying lists. One, then another, then a third... I’ve burned through over ten different ones at this point and absolutely nothing works. It just constanty buffers like crazy. My internet is fine, though. Download, upload, ping—everything looks perfect on my end. I'm using AT&T as my provider. Basically, I can't get anything to actually run.

Then I thought, "Fine, I'll just buy a streaming box." So I set it up, fired up the TV, loaded the list, and boom—it worked perfectly. Zero buffering, everything was smooth. It worked like a dream for maybe four days, and now? For a whole week straight, it hasn't worked at all. Not through the box, not directly on the TV. Doesn't matter if I use the cable or Wi-Fi. To make things even more ridiculous, I used to be able to catch at least *something* during certain hours, but now? Absolute zero. Nothing.

Anyone got any advice or ideas? Why is this happening?

I know a ton of people using the exact same provider who have IPTV working flawlessly regardless of which list they use.

How do I get Tapatalk to actually remember my login info for this forum?

It used to work just fine, you know? Then some random update hits and suddenly everything breaks. Now, it’ll hold onto my credentials for maybe a few minutes, and then boom—I'm staring at the login screen again, having to type out my username and password all over again. It's driving me nuts because I have another forum on Tapatalk that works perfectly; it remembers me forever without any drama.

I already tried deleting the forum from the app and adding it back, but absolutely nothing happened. Zero luck. After about five minutes, it just forgets me. I'm using an old Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini.

Someone please give me some advice, or better yet, a real fix for this mess.🙂

Tapatalk won't save my login info for Reddit, but it works fine for every other site I use. For some reason, it just logs me out after like five minutes. What am I supposed to do about this? thanks

Wait, are you actually kidding me, or is it just impossible to get anything decent for more than that now?

Hey guys, I need some help here.

I'm trying to sell my PC but I have zero clue what kind of price tag to put on it.

I'll drop the specs below, so please just tell me what you think it's worth!

Intel Pentium(tm) 64 X2 core processor 4000+ 2.1 ghz.

2.5 gb of ram ddr 667
150gb hdd

The deal includes a 19 inch Philips square LCD monitor too

ati radeon HD 4650 1gb

plus a mouse and keyboard.

What's a realistic price for a rig like this?

I'm only offloading it because I want to grab a laptop instead. Everything runs perfectly fine and honestly, it’s pretty snappy on Win. 7!

Thanks!!

ps: if anyone's actually interested, just let me know 🙂
