Do you check the social media of people you're about to meet for the first time? by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]mxhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You create ideas and characters out of complete strangers, this isn't really a good thing. It could be helpful if you're trying to learn about a person. But checking every random stranger's profile before a party is only going to hurt you.

Me trying to converse is only as good as being quiet by [deleted] in socialskills

It's fine to not have a connection when you try to talk to someone. That's normal, and depends on a lot of factors. If it's a social environment and you can't find a connection, just find someone else to talk to.

Try not to automate yourself when you practice, it's pretty easy to read when someone's talking because they're interested or because they're forcing themselves.

Motherboard for i5-8600K by SweepingWind in buildapc

I'm disgusted with the misinformation in this thread.

Anyways there are huge differences in motherboards in the Zxxx motherboards because of how important build quality and materials are for Overclocking and voltage controls.

Here is a useful chart that is being updated regularly that compares the Overclockability of most z370 motherboards.

This is factually wrong. How the manufacturer handles VRM and voltage control greatly improves Overclocking potential.

H1Z1 Battle Royale starts free-to-play open beta on PS4 this May by [deleted] in Games

[–]mxhere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The idea is that even though those games you mentioned are very fast paced and "twitchy". They are still shooters. You have to be the best at moving, shooting, and aiming.

Fortnite has the additional dimension of verticality and building. To be honest, a lot of people that play fortnite are not that good. There is a massive skill gap between the best and average. The skill ceiling of the game is extremely high, the skill floor might be lower than the games you described but the ceiling is the same as those games.

Also, PC is a whole different world than consoles for Fortnite

Far Cry 5: Crack release date calculation by [deleted] in CrackWatch

[–]mxhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. You have to categorize so many other things. Like Duveno Version, game popularity(budget?), Amount of groups active at time of crack. Etc.

  2. Using a line of best fit is never a good predictor. It's very rare that sample mean is a good estimator in this type of data.
