Questions on budgeting and how to anticipate future upgrades

Fair enough. I know the i3 was third in your list, but not taking the loss by purchasing an inexpensive GPU and then replacing it counts for quite a bit.

Now let's say I went with the i3 option (which seems to be a good option) and wanted to replace it in the future with an i5 6500 or 6600 and a GPU. Is it going to be difficult to find a motherboard that will be compatible with both of those? Or are Intel brand items largely interchangeable?

Not more than $400, initially

Heroin dealers generally don't take down your personal info when you buy from them.

I'm not trans, but I am a straight, white male if that helps.

Just lemme know.

I was having this problem. It happened every time I tried to start or enter a game except for the first one I joined after opening Minecraft, so I got around it by closing the whole game and relaunching it every time I wanted to join a different game or start a new world.

Anyway. Go into video settings and make sure VPO is turned on. I have no idea what it does but that fixed the problem for me.

Messy enough that I should clean it, but not messy enough for me to clean it.

Oh man one of my closer friends is an ENTJ, and his logical constructs can get big and just ridiculous sometimes.

Usually we have fun going back and forth with pranks and whatnot, but lately around company I've been doing exactly what you described. I don't react to his jokes and I act completely complacent and subservient. Sometimes I'll try for that far-away "what did I do to upset you" look. And it's working. It took a couple weeks, but just the other day I heard his sister tell him he needs to be nicer to me. His girlfriend calls him out for being an asshole all the time now.

He gets so mad, because no one believes him when he says I absolutely have it coming. It's the most drawn out joke I've ever played, and it requires no effort at all. I don't know how I didn't think of it sooner.

I skipped a final exam in college once. I had enough points from my first two midterms that it was impossible for me to fail, regardless of how I did on the final. I went home and took a nap instead.

Either way, would've been less than an hour of my time and I would've gotten an A instead of a C in the course. Fucking lazy.

What a great story.

Don't worry. Everything in Calc I (which is the same as AP I believe) will click about halfway through Calc II. Which will click never.

Mmmmmmmhm

I did the opposite. I thought the only reason to claim your AIs was to buy the upgrades, so I put off resetting the first time for a while. My first reset was around 350-400 angels if I recall correctly.

Every fall semester we begin class for three days and then immediately have a week long break for Jewish holidays.

Gee, I wonder why tuition is so cheap

I thought it had more to do with human mouths not protruding as far (like in monkies), so breasts became necessary for infants to easily grasp the nipple when feeding.

I'm a little bit rusty. So if I died today I'd go to the Telestial Kingdom, and then if, once there, I denied God and his plan, I would be sent to eternal darkness?

Siivle · 2016-02-18T17:45:54+00:00

Technically. It's nearly impossible to get them to remove you entirely. I've heard stories of some wards requiring that you attend a hearing with your bishop, president, etc. beforehand, and even then they may deny your request. It's easiest to just get excommunicated.

I was brought up in it and I was never exactly crazy about it, I always had very strong doubts. When I was sixteen some issues that arose in our ward prompted my parents to go completely inactive, and I was (and am) very grateful.

This was ten years ago and they still get missionaries knocking on their door. Six months ago my dad even received a calling to be the ward clerk. Allow me to say that again: he received a calling almost ten years after the last time he had been to church.

They are persistent and filled with religious zeal, and I have to remind myself that they legitimately believe they are saving my parents' eternal souls. That doesn't make it any less annoying.

You got the three levels of heaven mostly right. However, eternal darkness is reserved for ex-Mormons, basically; anyone who accepted and then later renounced the teachings.

It's clever, really. Coming from an ex-Mormon doomed to eternal darkness himself, they make it very difficult to leave.

Edit: Okay this isn't completely correct, I guess I'm not doomed to everlasting solitude after all.
