@Rip: Honestly, all the sodium in all the food around here is why I thought I might've been having a heart attack. I managed to cut sugar to near nil, but sodium's a bitch.

@Rune: I'm running an i7-3770. After processors stopped using speed and cores as the metrics, I stopped paying attention. What sort of performance boost would I get there?

@Theo: C++, right. Glancing through, our logic is baaaasically the same. So well done. You were on the same trail as me.

Ah but what about the build quality?

(Yes I have done that in the past with my current set-up, using an i7-4790K.)

Hmmm, if that's the case I might need to sacrifice a couple of month's pay and just buy myself a new GPU.

Mind you I might have to consider a whole new rig replacement after that as to get better RAM I'll need a Motherboard that supports DDR4, at least, so I'll have to get rid of my Sabertooth Z97-mk2.
Which would mean I'd need to remove my heatsink off the thing too, which I have never done before and don't really want to do...

No real surprise that a Zelda game is getting extremely high reviews.

Edit:

Ok, based on review aggregates, its (at least for now) the most critically acclaimed game of all time.

I watched a delidding video for the Zen 1700 and if that was anything to go by, the build quality of the CPU itself is actually rather good. Better than intel when it comes to the material and processes used to attach the heat-spreader onto the chip itself, though this method means that anyone wanting to delid their CPU is probably gonna just break it.

So it shouldn't melt unless you use bad cooling and actively disable any kind of thermal throttling.

Been reading posts on the romance system in SAO:Hollow Realization. God It's complicated. There are star points and heart points. And depending on the play type that you want for your NPC romances you're going to focus on certain styles of talking to them to achieve fighting styles in the combat mode.

https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/181869- ... n/74559692

This helps, a little, but wrapping my brain around how to develop the character to what I want has just been nuts.

Standard. That always happens with Zelda. Back before Gamestats went defunct Zelda Ocarina of Time was top of the list for years and finally got bumped by some other Zelda game I don't even remember. Don't get me wrong, Zelda is good, but I seriously don't think Ocarina of Time was *the* best game ever. I think Zelda gets tons of bonus points just for being Zelda (as do assorted other franchises).

So...Ana->Sombra->Orisa

The next hero will be an infant with skin as black as midnight. Superbaby confirmed.

More seriously though, why couldn't this woman be older?!

Because I'm all about tribal African women, yes I am.

I have a good feeling about this afternoon. Drove my car for 50 mins around the foothills of Ventura and the beaches after having a cool start and idle for 10 mins and idle with full A/C front and rear defrost for 30 mins. Drove somewhere around 30 miles. I know I'm going to pass my smog check today. I can feel it.

Looked up the Ryzen and it appear that it would have given me a little more for the price I paid for my Intel i7-6700K. Oh well. If I feel like needing a serious upgrade (which I currently don't), I'll know where to look.

"Best game ever" is more a matter of personal opinion, anyway. I can say that Super Smash Bros Melee is the best game ever simply because I have a lot of fond memories of it, but that doesn't necessarily make it true.

So I decided to organize all my Pokemon into a "Living Pokedex" while i was waiting for Zelda and the unthinkable happened...

Now, I dont want to concern anyone but... I was missing 13 Pokemon... I had not, as I believed, caught them all.

But its OK! I finally corrected the mistake. I have officially, FOR REAL THIS TIME, caught them all.

Patrick Stewart is becoming a US Citizen to fight against that thing we really shouldn't call a president and all who support him.

Good on him. We need every voice we can get to get rid of that piece of shit and everyone involved with him.

Before this gets kicked over to the politics thread, let's remember that Patrick Stewart is pretty influential.

I'm excited to see what he does to fuck over trump and his cabinet.
