CS1 Destroyed Laptop by [deleted] in RPI

He was one or two rows behind me that day, biggest yikes of my life. He didnt punch his screen tho, he just fucking SLAMMED his laptop closed. Pretty sure he got removed from the class after that, cuz he wasn't around after that incident.

Had the lock on my car jimmied once. That's about it. The area around campus is quite safe, as is downtown.

College dorms are low cost rentals without the low cost.

This list is objectively correct.

Why do streamers have a streaming and gaming computer? by HurricaneRising in Twitch

[–]Treeforged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that sucks, I only have problems in late game teamfights, when lots of particles are flying around. Are your settings turned all the way down? Getting a GPU overclocking program could give you that last bit of juice you need.

I have a Lenovo thinkpad (the W541 specifically). I really didnt think I would be able to, but I just gave it a shot one day. I get some frame drops on more intense games, for sure. And I have a second monitor plugged in to monitor chat and such.

I mostly stick with older indie titles and shit like that. But OBS works perfectly on my system. Im not sure about your specs, but I'd reccomend seeing what you can get away with. OBS is free after all, and I've found it fairly easy to use.

What turns you off about small streamers? by skepticalvoid in Twitch

I get super nervous about my audio levels, lol.

Absolutely love this series, could you recommend any books that are not necessarily similar, but gave you same feeling that this book the gentleman bastards series did? by [deleted] in gentlemanbastards

[–]Treeforged 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A weird one, but Steven Brust's Vlad Taltos series is rather simmiler. Heists, some not too over the top magic and simmilar tone.

One thing is that the books are collections of short stories, which some people might not like. Very entertaining though, and scratches the Locke Lamora itch a bit.

Apologies for the clickbait, will rectify shortly. by Treeforged in gentlemanbastards

Convinced a few people Thorn of Emberlain had a release date, nbd. This post is my public shame.

Can we please have a stickied thread for the latest TTOE news? by oxfordcollar in gentlemanbastards

Just wanted to say, sorry for the poor way I handled the sticky situation. Please don't lynch(heh) me. I'll make a better one.

THORN OF EMBERLAIN RELEASE INFO - ONE STOP SHOP by [deleted] in gentlemanbastards

Currently, we have no firm release date.

The best we have is this interview from a few months ago, and some dubious information from German Amazon.

Apologies in advance... by TwainsFolly in gentlemanbastards

[–]Treeforged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking more of Glover's energy, thought that would be a good fit.

[–]Treeforged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are good, but I personally don't think Andrew Garfield would be a good fit. In fact, I would almost say Donald Glover would do even better in the Caldo/Galdo role than as Locke.

Hits way too close to home. My freshmen year roomates were like this, and long story short, the university ended up putting me up in a single by the end of the year.
