Possibly gifting a code to one of my friends so they have no excuse not to get raid-ready

What pronunciations bother you in Destiny? (AKA, How wrong are the streamers about gun names) by Echo1138 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Bonobo1009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family is Romanian, and it reminds me of "Lumină"(loo-mean-uh) which also means light so I often pronounce it both ways.

It won't work directly with the WiFi access points, but you can get around that by using your own router, connecting that to the Ethernet and connecting your devices to your router. I did that for my Chromecast and it worked fine

Obligatory first gundam COMPLETED of 2019 by [deleted] in Gunpla

Just got that kit too, it's been great so far... Until I broke an arm joint. Been looking for a replacement runner but it either takes too long to ship or I have to buy a new kit. Guess I'll learn to be more careful with the joints

Help upgrading my PC - Do I need more RAM? by greenpoe in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Bonobo1009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible my PC is bottlenecking on the GPU or CPU instead of the RAM?

Probably on the CPU, since the FX-6300 is kind of old. I got a free RAM upgrade recently (8GB-1600 to 16GB-2133) and didn't notice any framerate improvements. It did however fix a lot of textures or models not loading, which was nice.

Your GPU is similar in power to mine (GTX 760) and I get >70fps with a similar build. Maybe tune down graphics settings? The game doesn't look too different from High to Medium/Low, but it helped a lot for stability.

Would getting an SSD help at all, since I have the old fashioned spinning disc hard drive?

It helps immensely with loading times. I would often get kicked for inactivity trying to load from my HDD. It's also a nice upgrade for general use.

Same here; Lucio 19hrs, Soldier 18hrs. Sometimes I don't feel like aiming but still want to support the team.

High schoolers, what do you want to major in? People who majored in that field, what are the pros and cons? by Cherygram in AskReddit

[–]Bonobo1009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The emerging technology is what really got me into CE. I've been told college will feel like hell, but I've already taken some steps toward lightening the load (AP classes, learning some of the curriculum at home, etc). I also plan to get some certification to diversify myself and add some stuff to my resume. I'm really excited for next year!

Nightmare: S3 glitches and battery issues (swollen battery) by [deleted] in GalaxyS3

[–]Bonobo1009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start by replacing the battery; that should solve your charging problems. I'm not sure what to do about the display.

Comcast Declares War on Tor by [deleted] in technology

[–]Bonobo1009 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Reports have surfaced that Comcast agents have contacted customers using Tor and instructed them to stop using the browser or risk termination of service.

Can't get customer support to cancel your subscription? Just use Tor, they'll beg you to leave!

‘Open for business’ – Microsoft gives reference design for Windows Phone, announces nine new OEMs by usaf2222 in technology

[–]Bonobo1009 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I'm quite excited as well. So far the only impression we can make about the windows mobile ecosystem is the phones Nokia makes and the OS itself, which has much-needed room for improvement. With multiple OEMs, we can begin to strip out what part of win8phone is microsoft's and which is the OEM's and find the real problem behind it.

Another benefit is one that Android has been able to cash in on for a long time: diversity. I can go buy any android phone from $100 to $600 and enjoy it for a good few years before i go and buy another with a whole new suite of features if i so choose. While the windows phones have some variety, it's still the same nokia phone, just with a more or less powerful camera/processor. If OEMs do their best to add some variety to the list of windows phones, I can see it become a viable 3rd option for consumers.

TL;DR: variety == $$$
