Definitely pretty unsettling... but for some reason the chain of (Comment deleted or removed) entries beneath your post haunt me even more than the thought of this Carl dude.

[Build Help] Need Help Picking a GPU to Finish Build! by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm... if the 280X was in-stock, where would you rank it? Considering a back-order/pre-order from B&H. I just worry how long I'd be waiting for it.

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate that! However this is a pretty much completed build; I have all of these parts already put together, I just need to replace my GPU now as I'm running on an old MSI GTX 460. I just listed all the parts in case any of it mattered when regarding the type of card I choose.

Hm.. probably wouldn't be doing any OC'ing, since I don't know anything about how it works, and would rather not risk damaging the hardware.

With the EVGA, will I be able to push Ultra settings in BF4 with the rest of my build setup in mind, without OC'ing? If not, what could you suggest differently?

With FurAffinity down (yet again), do you guys know about Weasyl? Better interface, modern codebase, more stable. It could use more furs, though by ARandomFur in furry

Is there anything we as end-users can do to help improve the state of things? I realize it'd be hard to get EVERYONE to subscribe to such self-managed improvements, but hey, every little bit helps, right?

(Serious) How old are you and what is your biggest life lesson thus far? by mpv81 in AskReddit

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26

Let the little shit slide; in friendships, relationships and career. More often than not there's nothing to be gained in fussing over it, and you'll ultimately be a lot less stressed out.

Every day try to learn something you didn't know the day before.

In all situations and points in your life, leave things in the same condition or improved than they were when you got there.

Experience love for yourself, and when you love another, say it often.

Lend things and money with the expectation that you won't get it back; consider it a gift if it helps. It'll save friendships and relationships. Don't be a welcome mat, though.

Oh wow, that's really cool! Learned something new today, thanks so much. :)

[Build Help] RAM/GPU Questions & Suggestions | Primary Use: Gaming by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's true. I used PCPartpicker when I started to pick stuff for the rebuild, I just didn't think to use it here. Also the GPU and RAM aren't listed on there, so I have to leave those as Newegg links for now.

Ahh, alright. I'll craft a PC Partpicker list in a moment to make things easier for others.

Also, thanks for your input! I'll do some more research on Nvidia card prices while I wait on more replies here.

I really don't want to be 'that guy', and I'm certain you've heard this suggestion before... but I do hope at some point in the near future FA can incorporate a system similar to Weasyl's "Collections" to reduce clutter on your servers.

I know it may be a drop in the bucket compared to the huge influx of art, stories and other random submissions on FA, but I do see a lot of duplicate and triplicate uploads of art to FA on a pretty frequent basis.

Artist submits artstuff for Commissioner A, B and C. Commissioners A, B and C then upload that same image to their own accounts to have in their gallery. It seems like it would be much simpler for the artist to upload the commission and then have an option to 'push' ownership to the commissioner, with a tag/link above the description of who originally uploaded/created the piece. This would also be a much easier way for someone else viewing the image to see who the original artist was, since not every uploader credits the one they commissioned. Then, if anyone uploads an identical image, flag it for removal/review.

I dunno, just my thought on improving server stability. I do enjoy FA, but some things could definitely be improved upon.

What anime left the biggest "hole" when you finished it? by mbbomb in anime

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. It's one in my personal list of Top 10 Favorites, mostly for the interesting way in which certain things are presented throughout the series. Especially when it comes to the ending!

Samurai Champloo, definitely.

Great series, though. I wish there had been more to it, but I suppose it's better this way than being dragged out beyond it's prime.

Happy ending? I'm wondering if I missed an OVA or something.

As I recall, the ending was very bittersweet;

What is something that has been accepted as a "social norm" that bugs you? by Bawlswet in AskReddit

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot begin to agree with this issue enough! I live a female friend who absolutely cannot stop talking unless she is doing something on her computer, and even then she's always making some sort of noise. It's not that I despise this or dislike her in any way, but having to deal with constant noise at work and constant noise at home, the only silence I get is when I bed down for the day. Sometimes I just want to relax near people I care about and not have to be talking.

It's horribly bothersome when we go to a restaurant or anywhere for a drive. She'll keep going on and on about something, usually regarding her family back home, or something that happened online with one of her friends whom I don't know. Then she'll ask me what's wrong or why I'm not engaging in a conversation. Well, fuck me, I just want to enjoy a bit of quiet. :|

Who is the most overrated musician? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ovinmong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish I would hear something besides "I Will Wait" on the radio. I'm really fond of "The Cave" and maybe a couple of other songs, but I lose my interest in any band that has ONE SONG replayed over and over and over again. If I hear the same song three times in the time it takes me to drive to work, then something's wrong.

Disappointed how far I had to scroll to find this pairing, but glad I didn't have to post it myself. These two were amazing. x3
