5/10 - No emotional connection at all. It tries to say an obvious thing in the least understandable way.

I had one in my apartment, same number of lost legs, looked almost identical, including size. It's a male Carolina Wolf Spider. (probably young, but not unusually so) Wolf spiders are almost totally harmless to humans, though their bites can be mildly painful. (equivalent to a wasp or bee sting, but they would much rather run than attack) They do however keep a lot of pests out of your home, including actually harmful spiders. (they are notorious for keeping out brown recluse and black widows, usually without themselves dying)

Ok, so someone is a dick on the internet, and this is a big deal for people? I think we all need to take a quick step back from the internet and regain perspective.

Hang in there, it can only get better or worse. Damn, I suck at consoling people.

The reason you can't do a snake isn't because of the snake itself, but because of the snakes food. Snakes eat rodents, and rodents carry diseases... Still sucks that you can't have one.

Maybe, pizza and Squirt...

Have you seen my Steam library? It's bigger than yours... I like torrenting to see if a game is worth purchasing, or for that matter, playing. If it is, I buy it. If not, I don't. Also, the NSA does keep a list of online purchases made by everyone. (it was originally intended to allow them to see who was buying stuff to make IEDs, but they have yet to use it for that purpose because nobody is stupid enough to order bomb making supplies online) OT: Deciding if I should eat or not.

I have, nearly... 24 mics, two pianos, 3 guitars, an electric fiddle, and a drum set. Took 2 hours to untangle, and they were organized.

Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens [SPOILERS]

Botrytis. It's not the best, but it is worth seeing at least once. -
Still, why bother? It's not like most people really care.

Wait, this is a thread? I thought it was a hamster... Possibly a fruit bat. No, wait! It must be a dump truck! That's it, a Tonka Dump Truck! Not the new-style plastic crap, but the old need-a-tetanus-shot steel ones that never die.

Motion blur is just taking two sequential frames, and blending them together... Most programs will do it for you without any advanced input from you, it's usually just a small checkbox or option box.

Other countries/locations in the Fallout universe
BTGBullseye replied to Selfsurprise's topic in Gaming in general
The main problem with a Fallout game set in any European country is that the area has already been established to be completely without any usable resources, and highly radioactive... Essentially Fallout 4's Glowing Sea, only covering the entire continent. Africa, parts of China, India, and much of Russia would've probably survived to some extent. (I don't remember anything about the middle-east in-lore) -
I never managed to properly play Ares - I think I had a demo, or was too inept at computer games at the time to get anywhere - but the music at the start of the game stayed with me. It's a banger. The premise and style generally looks to be similar to the Homeworld games... (though technologically primitive in its implementation due to its release date)
-
The Tribes 2 soundtrack is really good as well, but I can't seem to find a good download/torrent link for it right now... (which is unfortunate)

Look in the RL Pictures thread in the FFA section, I'm not overly svelte myself... Still, even if it would likely do no good, I would grab SOMETHING to defend myself if the opportunity presented itself. It's been the downfall of many of my 'scary' dreams when I pick up a bat, or some random object. (chairs are remarkably useful as a thrown weapon)

Not bad... I hope you don't mind, but I like to suggest upgrade paths for systems posted here. First thing you should look into is getting an SSD. Doesn't have to be huge, but it'll be a significant system performance boost. They are as low as $130 for a quality 480GB SSD from Newegg. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100011693%204814%20600136715%20600076740%20600038499%20600038502%20600038492%20600038491) If you want to go really high-end there are 960GB drives with good performance for as low as $250. Second would be the PSU, simply because most better GPS will require more power, and that would be the biggest bottleneck for gaming in your system. Don't go for under 600w for a new one though, or 800w if you're thinking of doing multi-GPU. Also, higher rating is ALWAYS better, as it reduces strain on the PSU, and reduces power fluctuations that are sent to the motherboard and peripherals. (the fluctuations can get bad enough over time that it can literally fry the hardware in your system, usually starting with the RAM, and northbridge/southbridge of the motherboard) I personally recommend the Rosewill brand. They are inexpensive, but good quality. A 600w from them with 80+ Gold rating is only $75. If you don't care about efficiency, you can drop down to 80+ Bronze rating for a $50 Raidmax PSU @735w. (Raidmax is another good brand with generally low prices, but not quite as good in quality as Rosewill in my experience) Third is, of course, the GPU. Since you aren't likely to go spend $300-$500 any time soon on the previous upgrades, I recommend waiting for the Nvidia Pascal GPUs that will be coming out later this year. I don't recommend any AMD cards currently out (or in the planning stages) as an upgrade over what you already have, mainly because they aren't better on the price/performance ratio than competing Nvidia GPUs. Also, AMD can't make a professional driver to save their lives. (they have been known in the past to flat out ignore entire portions of standard OpenGL and DirectX code calls when deploying drivers, and I have personally been burned by them MANY times by AMD on various levels of GPUs, but never on the numerous Nvidia GPUs I've used and abused, even if they were cheap or old) After those three upgrades, you'd really need to get a new motherboard/CPU/RAM setup for increased performance, so I won't get any further into the upgrades unless you'd like a full new system design made for you.
