Nal, you can't really get much. Maybe you could get a stuffty case fan. Buy dust filters or cable ties so you can make your computer colder/cleaner

i found a 320GB western digital scorpio blue at the recycling plant yesterday, would this thing be good for storage?

5400rpm? not bad but not great. it's SATA so it should work on modern mobos

I've been meaning to ask, why does my 1TB HDD show it only has 931gb total?

for some reason, advertised terabytes are different than storage terabytes.

Thanks for the advice, I just like making sure so I have 100% compatible parts down to the connectors and drivers & such. Well I have a ATI 9550 extreme (?) and it cannot run shaders (on BL) nor minecraft at far(? is that CPU dependant?). I'll also check those cards out thank you once again.

ok 7970 it is :D

that gpu is kinda old. i wouldn't be surprised if your motherboard bottlenecked, if it's as old as the card

imo coding isnt art. you can make art by coding but it itself is more of an activity

hopefully steam will bolster the stats.

i feel like i go on blockland forums less now. none of the topics captivate me very much. we need more discussions.

i suppose you're right. i'd say learn the syntax, read iban's tutorial, learn about dump() and trace() (two very useful functions) and start experimenting with blockland.

Well lets see. He couldn't have known that the child took the gun. A steak knife is found in a kitchen, the magazine has the same case as the gun, and a sledgehammer is something you find in a toolshed.

A good percentage of these are common items around the home.

you dumb. you should put a gun in a loving lockbox.

i'd like to again push my hypothesis that the reason people think all coders are richards is because you don't know the non-richards are coders.
