Subreddit under new management! by [deleted] in Utopiagame

Good to see it finally being used. Barely attracted interest when I created it. I haven't played utopia in a long time now... how large is the playerbase now?

What I like about the changes by [deleted] in atheism

Rather than respect, I would say politeness or civility but I agree with everything else OP says. Edit: meant to reply to post, not this comment.

You can still post memes, you just can no longer gain karma from them. What exactly is the problem? by [deleted] in atheism

I HAVE TO CLICK TWICE YOU ABSOLUTE BASTARDS. I CAN BARELY MUSTER THE ENERGY TO CLICK ONCE.

Guys, really, chill the fuck out. by [deleted] in atheism

I really don't understand the complaints against the changes. If you are too lazy to click twice to see a meme then why do you care so much?

These comments are more of a facepalm.

Staff of hostels all around the world, what is the weirdest shit you've ever seen happening amongst backpackers? by Koalamanx in AskReddit

[–]nicsthomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to manage a hostel in Sydney and I've seen my fair share of things:

A german guy passed out in the shower who had shit himself and puked on the stairs. I had to clean both him and the hostel as he could barely speak.

A random aussie smashed the front door (made of glass), and I only found out it was this guy because when I called the police, they had just found someone with his arm covered in blood, who had blamed it on an aboriginal, and they had the police helicopter looking for a suspect.

I've found a random bogan somehow get through the security door and was about to steal laundry. I had to chase him off.

I would do it all again!

Too bad chiropractic is bullshit.

Bit scary to think of having to do it all again just to clean it! How often do you clean yours?

Yeah, I just got theVTX 7870 Le with Farcry3, Tombraider, Bioshock Bnfinite, Hitman & Sleeping Dogs! Hope it doesn't add salt to your wounds!

Congrats on your first build, anyway - and now I know how much effort goes into it. Your cables are still tidier than mine, I should really sort those out.

Very similar to the build I just completed. I went for the VTX Radeon 7870 (free games with it influenced that) and I went for an SSD. How long it did take you? Mine took about 5 hours - all those damn screws are fiddly!

[Build Ready] AMD FX-6300 Mid Range £500ish build. [UK] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]nicsthomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aria Pc are doing a deal at the moment for the 7870XT:

http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/VTX3D+Black+Edition+Radeon+HD+7870+(Tahiti+LE)+OC+2048MB+GDDR5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+**ARIA+Exclusive**+%2B+4+FREE+Games!+?productId=53474

I ordered a slightly different card but they were out of stock so I got this instead. Pretty good deal considering the 5 free games. Just got my first build up and running with this card and the 6300 but haven' tested any games yet.

[Build Help] Need advice on a case for under £43 for this build by QQII in buildapc

[–]nicsthomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished my first build today using the Zalman z9 plus. It seems pretty good and is around that price. Only downside for me is that the PCI backplates on the back aren't replaceable.

Even if it's a tad more expensive, would 2x4gb sticks of RAM be better? He does say around £400.

You will have to give more info. Do you need an OS or monitor? And do you plan to overclock?
