[QUOTE=Daemon White;46625166]As far as GPUs go, I'm waiting to see what the Radeon R9 300 series comes up with for performance. And when the r9 390X comes out, Nvidia is more than likely to push for a GTX 980Ti.
Which might all happen within the next year. So I'm holding off on upgrading my GPU since this 7870 is doing fine for me so far.[/QUOTE]
Hopefully the R9 300 series comes out in time for my birthday next year, that could be a nice birthday present i'd say.
Off topic but, my brother likes to blare his rap music every morning when we drive to school (He said it's to wake him up) , and there is this song on his CD that literally goes like
[B]"THIS IS A TRAPS N TRUNK SOUNDTRACK NIGGA"[/B]
*3 incredibly loud air horn samples played at the same exact time"
It's this exact air horn sample
[video=youtube;u15mQ31WzZQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u15mQ31WzZQ[/video]
Absolutely retarded but I can't help but laugh my ass off whenever he blares his rap music
I mean I fully respect everyone's music tastes, I'm not the kind of person who is like [I]"oh i wouldnt dare listen to such vile trash!!!, classical music is for sophisticated people like myself!! *tips fedora and posts to reddit account with 6k upvotes*[/I]
but I mean come on, you have to admit that it's hilarious.
Okay and then there is another song he likes to blare
It's "Lil Bosie- They Say that Im crazy"
This song gets me in tears, because the first lines are literally this
"They say that I'm crazy... [B]CUZ I PISTOL WHIPPED THAT NIGGA...[/B] [B]FOR FORTY MINUTES[/B].... [B]STRAIGHT[/B].. [B]WITH MY SHIT[/B]....[B]FUCK UP YO FACE[/B]"
Like I said before, the songs he listens to are absolutely absurd but, they make me laugh whenever I hear them.

I'm personally nonplussed about the 300 series. Unless I see AMD make major strides in reducing power consumption like Nvidia has done with the 900 cards, I don't really see how they're going to pose a threat. I'm skeptical about their "high speed memory" technology until I see it in action, and chances are that Nvidia will find a quick way to match up against/counter it anyway.
[editline]fake merge[/editline]
Not to mention how they will likely never catch up in the driver department. Nvidia is always going to be better at making and frequently releasing graphics drivers.
In other news I've watched this at least 3 times and it still gives me chills:

That is beautiful.
Just tried a full-blown ENB (.254 version) on Skyrim. FPS still doesn't go above 40. Unless I stare at the sky, and that gives me 50 at best. And that's with Shadows set to High (2048 res)
Fuck, I found out where it went. The postman delivered it to the abandoned house next door. The one that has a lock on the mailbox because nobody lives there anymore and mail isn't supposed to go there anyway.
This day got a little bit better.

There was also a jury summons for my dad in the mail that wasn't delivered to us in that locked mailbox, so I'm glad I got that damn thing open.
Is it normal to feel like you're getting worse at your job the longer you work it? Or at the very least get more worn down by it?
I used to be like "oh I need to work the freezer AND dairy section today? No problem!"
Now its "oh I need to work the freezer AND dairy section today? Fucking kill me..."

Had to deal with a screaming baby today for an hour straight over the phone at work. Went from "Guess a few calls could help me be more confident." to "Ugh, another call." within a month. At least your day might not be that bad.

And they're putting us on the general purpose queue, which I always called the "grab bag filled with scorpions and maybe a peanut" due to the nature of general calls being complicated, one problem after another problems. So yes, I would call that normal.

No offense, FP, but a generic "lol lightweight" WebKit browser is [i]not[/i] Chrome.
Also I used to be much better at handling the overnight thing... Now its driving me up a wall.

I make my GF sleepy just by being around her or chatting with her, How :/
Such is the life of a poppy farmer.
I just removed some weird adware. Hopefully.
I'm 99% sure it was fucking Mcafee secure search/siteadvisor.
The Word Association thread is surprisingly fun
It was "Interenet Optimizer"
No idea how I got it. Thank god for System Restore, though. With any luck i'm not gonna wake up with stolen... everything.

My poor bookmarks. So much bookmarking lost.
Don't you hate it when people ask you for their avatar source, but you go to the other person's page and they have profile comments disabled.
Been enjoying SRIV so far but i'm kinda getting sick of the "Story Mission -> Five missions of go here and complete this list of Activities -> Story Mission" and so on.

Not bah-humbug enough. Probably should of specified that i hate Christmas for anything other than Christmas breakfast, which i don't get to have this year. So like, festive but fuck Christmas at the same time.
[sp]Thanks though, sounds kinda dickish and like i'm all "NOT GOOD ENUF" but i appreciate it[/sp]
I must find a Chrimbus Rigby before the actual date marks.
I think I want to build myself a lightsaber. Probably a long-handled one, black with an orange blade. I wonder if there'd actually be a way of using a laser and a crystal of some sort to light it instead of normal lights. Prooobably a longer blade than usually as well. I guess I'm going for a Light-Bastard Sword?
