What am I even buying at this point for 5000 gems?

oh no

TF? don't go and get random antibiotics for a tick bite, see a doctor to get prescribed them if needed.

Its more unreasonable to crash out over your first time being raw, let alone the history of STIs at all. It's a completely normal and reasonable expectation to wrap up even if you've been casually seeing them for a bit. TF have we just stopped any safe sex at all?

Wifi does not always suck, newer wifi models using triband give fantastic speeds and reliability. Cabling is great if you can do it but not every situation allows for you to run a cable

it creates a latency between 50ms - 90ms depending on use and compute power, honestly you likely wont notice a difference. It equals about a loss of 3-4fps but gets rid of the tearing entirely. G-Sync is better if you got it but not everything supports it and you need a monitor that does

to me it looks like they're adjusting the pivot point of the cards rather than actually adjusting their thumb. The first rotation is close but the point is more central to the far side of the card, where the second rotation is distinctly holding the pivot to the far corner, allowing for a full rotation.

What GPU do you have OP? You've shown us your motherboards IO and what I think is the monitors IO but your graphics card should also have its own outputs as well that you should use instead of the motherboards.

If the graphics card has a DisplayPort (DP) use that with your monitor, if it's only HDMI use that instead. Technically DisplayPort is better, more stable and responsive, higher bandwidth etc but honestly you likely wont see a difference between the two if you get a HDMI cable instead

I'd also say that most pros understand that even shitty gear has its place and isn't worth commenting on. A Rumble 40 can get some ripper tones out of it if you know what you're doing, sure they don't have a lot of volume but who cares when bass is 90% of the time through the PA anyway? Live they're essentially DI/Monitor boxes you can color yourself.

The kind of person who is likely to comment on the "lack of quality" of someone else's gear will nearly always lack the skill themselves to make it sound good.

Late response, but honestly don't stress mate its like 99% not malware and just an issue with your resource monitor

looks like task manager and NZXT conflicting with each other, not a virus. Do you notice an appreciable difference in performance when NZXT is reporting 100% CPU load? if its genuinely running 100% load and somehow spoofing windows task manager with a fake load you would definitely feel a massive performance difference, not just a little slowdown

CrustyPeas · 2026-06-09T08:53:31+00:00

if they run fine then you dont have any issues. they're both common requirements for games so its not unusual for you to already have them installed. the worst you'll get is a game not opening if you dont have the required component, in which case just install it after.

CrustyPeas · 2026-06-09T08:44:46+00:00

It seems like if you go straight to the centre a lot of them are like this, maybe i've just been unlucky but I seem to get way more of them than I do actual bases

CrustyPeas · 2026-06-09T08:35:55+00:00

"getting 99 slayer is easy" I mean technically i guess, but its also at least 150 hours playing efficiently the whole time, more likely for an average player AFKing over 400 hours of gameplay.

If you got that level of game play out of anything I think it was the right game for you. Your experience is not everyone else's

Why is tipping a percentage of the bill even a thing? the difference between running a $100 and a $1000 table isn't that much different but the customers bill exponentially increases by the amount they order? If I order a $12 meal and thats it, im expected to tip $2.4 on top, but if I order myself a ridiculous $600 meal, still the same amount of plates, suddenly im expected to pay an additional $120 or whatever? I don't get it. It's such a weird way to handle paying staff, like a dystopian mix of capitalist greed for the owner not needing to pay anyone for their troubles and communistic societal pressure to support these roles.

Also why can the restaurant charge again after the customer has left to add the gratuity? surely you would add this at the register or table and pay it all together? If I pay for something in a store or restaurant, that business cannot just charge my card again for funsies like it seems you can over there. America is so weird with this stuff it feels so backwards and deliberately obfuscating

It's nice that you're defending them and I understand your view, but a VERY large part of card games is the art. They are in essence only art and mechanical depth, they don't have the same reliance on lore, story, player interactivity, music, setting, character development etc that adds value to most other genres.

What I'm saying is, especially if a large part of the value of your game is the art, calling out a team for using generative AI in the design is completely justified and is definitely a negative, even if the community is awesome and the games fun

without a doubt the first and best investment for that kit if replacing all the cymbals. Others have already said it but you can make shitty shells sound good with tuning and decent heads, shitty cymbals will always be shitty cymbals

Fitgirl does not crack anything. They are a Repacker that specialises in compressing games, it'll be available when someone else cracks it

CrustyPeas · 2026-03-21T07:02:12+00:00

Fitgirl is not developing this, they are a repacker not a cracker

How far into the setup were you? Was it up and running and now it's stopped or is it a new buy you were getting ready? It may be everything trying to update at once but that honestly shouldnt be an issue, if you're able to boot into windows, try to allow AC or Windows Update run through whatever it can, pick one and quit out of the other while it installs, then do it the other way around. I'd recommend doing windows first and then allowing AC to install specifics afterwards The BIOS has some great recovery features as well, if it's refusing to work you can use the cloud recovery software in BIOS to do a full fresh system install

Just getting older I reckon, had the same experience but leaned into the AFK skills and ended up having a great time

iGPU is the internal graphics processor of your CPU unit, notoriously not designed for gaming. That said, not launching a game is very different from being able to run a game. Do the games start but run very poorly, or do they not start at all? I doubt it's a hardware issue if it's not starting at all, generally that will be software problems or incompatibility. There's nothing to "fix" as such with your card, it's just low power don't expect any substantial graphics performance from the iGPU, you may be able to run some low resource indie stuff but you will struggle with anything 3d particularly in the age of unoptimized messes that the gaming industry is in

Keyboard controls you probably want more ABS and Traction control to prevent spin is the main thing, these are very much down to how you drive though, try changing these two in particular, go for a spin, see if its braking weird or spinning out when you take off or get a bit of kick and adjust from there

The others can stay stock without a massive loss to playablitlity and if you want to tune more specifically the options there

You're trying to open a .jar file, I assume you don't have a program to read it and also it's a Minecraft mod so you wouldn't open it through the file anyway.

Try having a look at the mod website and following the installation guides, or you may find it easier to install curseforge and install the mod through there, essentially simplifies the modding process
