My graphics card is a geforce 210 so I don't know what's Bottlenecking in the gpu. Regardless I can't run some other games like csgo on native resolution.

Oh, wow. Yeah, a 210 isn't going to be able to run much at all. You'll probably have to go below native resolution to get some games playable. Or grab a cheap graphics card - $90 will grab you a 640, which while hardly a powerful card, should be about ten times as powerful as a 210.

7750's cant be much more than that (I got mine for £70) and it really is an amazing card for the price.
Look on ebay, you should be able to grab a 7750 used for cheap.

I can run cs:s relatively OK :v:
Can't really afford a new or better graphics card so I'll deal with whatever I have now

Glad I don't go back until the sixth, allows me to wallow in my post Christmas misery.
I took the entire last week off, and I come back to learn:
-I'm moving to a shittier cubicle (mine already sucks, I'm right next to the break room and phone support, so noise is constant)
-A lot of the shit that I did before I took the week off was broken by morons fucking around
-I can't even fucking work on the code because Visual Studio is being a massive piece of garbage
So I get booted to the cubicle right next to the copier and I can't even get work done in the meantime. The hangover doesn't help me already being pissed off (but my friend's band did a show last night and how else do you celebrate a show!?)
I got a letter today and thought it was anthrax because I forgot I asked for an fp holiday card

I didn't understand the Rust reference because I haven't played Rust, though I still enjoyed mine.
i didn't even remember they were a thing so i didn't ask for one :v:
Wifi adapter broke after being slightly crushed.
Solution A) Spare Wifi adapter: Can't find it
Solution B) Use 15 meter Cat5: Cat5 not at house
Solution C) Use phone and usb tether: PC and Phone are being dicks, not seeing eachother
Solution D) Cry: Can't, time for internet
Solution [fuckitlasttry]: Remove casing, suddenly works without issue
Well fuck you too adapter

They banned advice animals and meme images and everyone got pissed off and formed about 500 splinter subreddits and they took it off the front page.

Sup people,
I haven't caught up with most internet stuff. I specifically didn't use forums or reddit while up here. Just caught up with email, YT messages, and twitter.
I've been spending my time outside taking lots of video and pictures, and lots of timelapses.
I just got home from my brothers wedding. It was great. Very small, fast, but "intimate" I guess you could say. But on a personal level really strange. My brother was always the person who would go like, "Damn, look at the ass on that" or talking about going clubbing, etc etc. Typical stuff for someone who is in their mid 20's. But when he with his girlfriend/now-wife he's so different. During the ceremony he was kind of red in the eyes, and I saw flashbacks of us as kids playing video games together or talking in our bunkbeds or together in boyscouts. And my mind would flash between that and him giving his vows.
It was kind of surreal because, for me atleast, I still am relatively a child. I can drink, drive, fight, vote, and I've worked before and am finishing up my bachelors degree, but in most senses... I live at home. I'm with my family a lot and I still somewhat fill the gap of the younger brother even with my brother no longer really around. I have two younger sisters we adopted. 3 and 7, but they are kind of part of a different... generation as it were. I'm 23. While I still think to myself, "Are they really my sisters?" I would still kill anyone who tried to hurt them. It's a strange feeling being the younger brother, but now older brother trying to act like the mature one.
It's a strange feeling.
Along with the flashbacks from my childhood, oddly enough, I got hit with intense depression towards the end and I started imaging killing myself (again) because it seemed like he was so happy in all he got through and I wouldn't reach that kind of level. Thankfully though that feeling passed, though I still sometimes have those moments of feeling like the moron of the family, socially. So part of it is, with all he's gone though. Drugs, Rehab, closing his business, drugs again, hospital, and what he's gotten out of it. My life is extremely mild, no highs and no lows it seems. Maybe I'm waiting for that.
Sorry to drag down the mood, I just started typing nonstop and didn't think. Also I got used to the laptop keyboard in this particular position on the floor.
In other news, timelapses. I purchased a cheap 60D battery grip and it arrived today. I can now run two of my LPE6 batteries. I've been doing twilight timelapses ontop of this mountain. Each one is usually 30second exposure, at F4(widest my 10-20mm can do), and ISO 2000. Sounds really high but those get the results I liked. But in any case, each of those shots last about 5.5 hours. With two batteries I can now do 10+ hours or more. So perhaps sunset to sunrise. We'll see. You can see the galaxy rise over the mountains in some of the shots, depending on the weather. It looks incredible, even on my small 3" screen. I can't wait to come home and edit it. I had to go by a 2.5" External HD from walmart for about 75 bucks. 1TB, pretty good deal I thought.
I needed it since I already shot about 300GB of 18MP raw pictures for this timelapse montage. Probably my biggest timelapse project I figure. 5184x3456 in RAW is like 23mb. Well that's all for now. I am copying my current card data off the camera to shoot another timelapse tonight, both batteries are charged now.
BTW the Canon 24-70mm F2.8L USM II is pretty legit. Zoom and focus rings are meh, but the USM rocks on it and it's sharp as fuck even at F2.8.

I wish there was a rating for interesting. I always imagined growing up to be different than it is.
Suddenly I'm 18, I thought I'd be much more mature by now, ready to move out etc. But nope, still feel like I might as well be 16 or even less. Shit happens so fast. But also very slow, in a way. (School certainly feels like it's taking forever).
The only thing I can say about growing up is that age doesn't make you mature. The experiences and choices do.
My brother, brad, has been through such a significant amount more than me, and hence he is much more... "older"

Seriously there are things I still did earlier in the year that made freaking 10-year-olds look mature in comparison but then one day I decided to change that specific thing and from then on I kept it that way.
I ain't perfect, I still have [i]many[/i] personal issues that dog me very day but at the very least I can look back on myself as say: "you know what, I really did change myself for the better"

I know the feeling. It's the goddamn mediocrity that gets you. At least if your life was shit, if you had legitimate problems, you would actually feel like you were accomplishing something. But instead, you're stuck doing practically nothing significant, day after day. It's infuriating.

It's actually 52 little boxes inside. It's designed to look like a normal nerds dispenser box.
