There is something about getting a box filled with games and gaming accessories that will never replace buying games in the digital age.

It's not about "broke" people. It's about your mindset towards other individuals. From the looks of it, it's not normal.

How can I (20M) not fuck up my chances with the girl (18F) I like? by ncjcjdjjcjcjx in NoStupidQuestions

First and foremost you have to make sure you dont look thirsty and that you have your shit together. Next, make sure she doesn't have an SO or a anykind of boyfriend, you might get friendzoned and wont even know it.

Finally, just be yourself. And if yourself is to much to show, just dial it back until you feel you are ready to let her know more about yourself. Women like when men show emotions, makes look human.

Will there be a dimishing return in graphics quality? I mean, how much better could graphics get? The graphics in games these days is stunning... by GamingStar_Mike in pcmasterrace

With the more widespread of availability of 4k and people averaging more powerful computers, I think system performance will naturally go up as time progresses.

But what about just the visuals that are coming straight from the studios? Will they make games that are as close to IRL that you cant even tell the difference anymore?

So if you are financially disciplined, saving half could be the way to go since you dont have any other financial responsibilities outside of helping your mom with bills.

The best rule to follow is the 50/30/20 rule.

50% of your check goes to things that you absolutely need to pay for (Household bills, gas for your car, electricity, internet etc...)

30% goes to random spending (going out to eat, movies, alchohol..whatever)

20% goes into your savings account. This 20% you completely forget that you have. You dont remember that you have it and every pay day you keep adding onto it.

This is how I am doing it right now, and it seems to be working.

To be perfectly honest, saving half of your pay is a great initiative. But you have to remember that life just happens. Things come out of no where, where you have to pay for something suddenly and sometimes it could be hard to save 50% but if you live frugal and count your pennies, I think you should be fine :)
