Whats up with this pessimistic veiw of yours. You always say "well its gonna end not matter what." I dont care how much we dont see eye to eye, you shouldnt go through life like that. Its depressing.
It consistently has stuffty points of view, it's useless trying to reason with it because it doesn't use reason to think things through.

In much more important news, leaked DNC emails show favoring of Hillary and attempts to subvert Bernie

will they release a 3gb version for the 1060?
The price difference between a 6GB and 3GB 1060 would be minimal, it wouldn't be worth sacrificing that.

It's fine as long as you don't overdo it, like only drink on special occasions and not in stupid amounts
Yeah it's really only when you get to repetitive binge drinking and full alcoholism dependence that you really damage your liver.

Either way it's still a respectable choice to not drink, nobody's going to hate you for it.

What page stretch?  I have the window right now snapped on one half of my 2K monitor, so the page is at a little less than 1280 pixels wide, and I have the forums at 110% zoom because it's tiny on 2K resolution, and it still didn't stretch the page.

oh cause you edited it nvm

yeah im getting the ITX 1070 for my bitty comp.
its way overkill for 1080p gaming, but thats kinda the point lol
That is a game changer, it almost makes me want to get an ITX computer because my room is pretty damn small plus I'd be able to carry it around literally whereever.

I am currently in school, but during the summer I interned at a huge telecom company. I was observing/doing tasks in the crCIA center, assembling Virtuoso edge qam modulators/testing unreleased modem configurations at the tech/soft division and shadowing an executive in meetings by rotation/jobs done. Right now, like days after finishing it, I went to an intensive 2-week swedish language course because I want to study abroad at one point. True story.

There is no excuse if you put your heart into your work.
You can put your heart into your work and still have something to complain about you know.  You can put your heart out into working in government, or working retail, or working food service, and there will still be someone who makes your job miserable on the consumer/public side.

I used to do phone calling to alumni/parents/community for my university (cause it's a pretty great hourly wage and it's e-z money, no commission tho).  66% of convincing the person to give a gift to the university is having a great personality, character, and being very social with them on the phone.  I put 110% into phone calls, particularly with people who have a history of giving in the past to the university because that's like an almost guaranteed new gift, and there will be times when the person on the phone is really pissed off or angry for some irrational reason.  Many reasons have included things like their child didn't get accepted, or the school went to the Big 10 championship and left the ACC, or the whole American Sniper film fiasco on our campus.  For every stuffty call though, there's one really awesome call (some have even offered me jobs or internships just because of how I was on the phone and how well I convinced them).

There will always be a reason to hate something about your job no matter how much soul you put into it.

You're what, in your twenties? Unless you plan on killing yourself now, Blockland will be at least 40 years irrelevant by the time you die of old age. You builds might be remembered as cute little art projects, but they've never made news. They haven't changed lives. They don't have a physical monument. If you're lucky, they will last another ten or twenty years until Badspot finally decides to pull the plug on the master server and retire.
Yeah, they'll be in history books right next to Shakespeare and Newton
You guys are trying to argue with a deluded clown about the worth of education and any job that requires effort, it won't budge.

some beer is okay.
coors light is on my stufflist, however
Coors light is like one of the easiest beers to drink lol, I will never understand anyone who hates it.  Hell it's one of my go-tos along with America, Natty Boh, and Miller lite

u nasty bro
I could chug Jaeger it's so enjoyable, and I hate licorice.

Can alcohol taste sweet? I'm curious. I feel like a non sweet beverage would be nasty
The more sweet it is, the worse of a hangover you're likely to get.  There's flavored spirits and liquors though.



Anyone ever have Zelko?

I'm not at all an expert on AMD CPUs honestly, don't take my word for guaranteed certainty.  I would definitely recommend piling money up to do one big internal upgrade actually more than anything.  Assuming your case, power supply, and etc. are all fine, it'd be highly beneficial to simply upgrade mobo, RAM, CPU, and GPU all in one.  Even if it's not the greatest parts available, new or older generations (e.g. Intel Haswell CPUs, GTX900 GPUs vs. the pricier latest), it'll do a world of good.

There are absolutely massive databases of textbooks and academic resources online that college professors compare your paper to. It's usually done automatically if the teacher uses something like TurnItIn to accept paper uploads.
He wouldn't know, I'm not sure if he's made it pass high school.

Will a 1060 be able to run with a fx-6300? The only thing stopping me from buying a 1070 is me having to also upgrade my cpu and I really don't want to do that now.
Definitely not a 1070, that thing is a beast compared to your CPU.  On games that are less CPU intensive the 1060 would be fine but your best bet at this point would be to upgrade the processor too.  Try looking for one that'd fit the socket.
