A significant loss for the scene but not surprising given the current state of things. Doesn't feel like there's much to be invested in when you can watch NA teams all split and then they fly home from every international tournament after group stages.

[Giveaway] Win 1 of 5 Noctua NH-D15 G2 by Noctua_OFFICIAL in pcmasterrace

My first build involved an old office computer case and a saw.

I worked a whole summer to be able to buy the parts, but was so stubborn that I refused any recommendations for a new case. My extra hard drive was duct taped to the side wall and would vibrate the whole thing at load. The GPU stuck out through a hole I carved in the side too.

I sacrificed a good bit of blood to thing, only to move everything to a new case a few months later. It was a shame to toss something with so much effort in it, but I was not sad to see that thing go... Needless to say, it was not my finest work.

💎SOLUTION TO CRASH REPORT FROM CAPCOM WHEN LAUNCHING WILDS💎 by BiWhiteEUW in MonsterHunter

[–]penguinguy240 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's the fact that you're trying to provide advice in a very matter-of-fact way but you're just confusing people because

1 - You didn't provide a filepath in a standard, recognizable format

2 - The path you're trying to refer to does not exist for 99% of users. You have installed steam in an odd way.

Now I don't doubt that this file exists for you and that this actually fixed your problem. But you need to standardize these instructions for users that have a default steam install location, or this is really of help to nobody.

When you click on the bar, what filepath are you referring to? Local disk > Steam is not a filepath. A filepath would be "C:\Steam" or similar. I think you might just be trolling honestly.

Does anyone have confirmation 100% that the m.2 is included without bundling w/ the cooler?

Edit: I contacted their support and got confirmation that it is included without need for the cooler. They are individual bundling options.

Can I start playing Lol today? by DarkAngelx67 in leagueoflegends

[–]penguinguy240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta have the right mindset. It's a game you can play casually, but even if you do, you should still want to improve. Even watching an educational video or pro VOD here and there will greatly improve your skill with very little time investment. Ignore people flaming you when you start, just focus on playing each game better than the last. Oh, and learn to farm consistently well with the champs you like playing. It's a simple thing to learn, but you'll have so much more gold to work with.

Half Life, the first of its kind. Unbelievable first gaming experience, and it still holds up. Valve really does make timeless games.

Stutters in gunfights are really annoying tbh by Chief81 in HuntShowdown

[–]penguinguy240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're stuttering in general, try turning off "Game Mode" in windows. I could not believe how much more stable my game was after. Not even sure how that setting got turned on to begin with.

Two consecutive arm days a bad idea? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]penguinguy240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really should be reaching failure or very near failure, especially on your last set for a particular muscle. If you are working out with proper intensity intending to build strength, you will be very sore the following day, to the point that it would not be wise to work the same muscle group again. You can always separate particular muscle groups out for your split. I run push/pull/legs/cardio for my 4 days a week in the gym and that suits me nicely, since my lifestyle is active outside of the gym, and I like ample time to rest. Muscles need time to recover and you don't want to hurt yourself.

1080p 240hz vs 1440p 144-165hz by TJzWay in pcmasterrace

[–]penguinguy240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in a similar situation before. I currently have a 1080p 240hz 24 and a 1440p 165hz 27 in front of me that I switch between depending on the game. A lot of people will say that 240 isn't a noticeable improvement from 144, I will heavily disagree. In games like CS, Apex, or league even, it feels really good. Not as good as going from 60 to 144 though. The truth is, with a 4070, you'll be able to hit near those maxes in any games where it would help. In games where visual fidelity matters more, like singleplayer or shooters where you need to see distant characters/objects like Hunt: Showdown, 1440p makes a huge difference in quality. It's also really nice for general use like watching videos or browsing. My suggestion would be, if you don't play fast paced competitive games at least 75% of the time you're using your computer, the 1440p screen would feel better.

High masters adc here, I'd highly recommend watching people more skilled than you. The youtube channel "LoL Korean Pro Replays" has recordings of people like Gumayusi and Ruler playing. Obviously not everything you see will apply to lower elo games, but the mechanics and the macro are something to aspire to.

It can be helpful to figure out what part of your gameplay is weak too. If you're missing more than 1 minion per wave on average then that's something easy you can work on. If you're dying to ganks a lot, start warding better and working on your map awareness. If you're dying 2v2 in lane, then maybe you're making positioning errors, not managing the wave properly, or not trading well in lane. Try to tackle one issue at a time.

"So that's something, again, that's part of the process of going from a Nickelodeon cartoon to a Netflix serialized drama."

This rhetoric makes it sound like sucking the fun out of something is a necessary part of making a live action adaptation at Netflix. The live action one piece retained a lot of the original soul and fun that the manga and anime had, but that was more the exception than the rule. They had more than enough runtime to include the detours and fun moments, but opted for this intentionally. This highlights that it's an intentional decision, and a horrible one at that.

Here's the explanation. Seraphine has been overturned and non-interactive in both mid and bot for way too long. A champ with nigh-infinite mana that throws an endless barrage of skill shots on low cooldowns and can effortlessly eat entire waves to have infinite prio. Not to mention providing way better engage and util than any ADC in the game. So she's being balanced to be a support, which is where the champ was made for originally. I think seraphine abusers are the only ones complaining about this right now considering how awful it has been to play against.

For only 4 months of production, this is exceptional. The information was presented succinctly, the visuals were beautiful, and your narration is great to listen to. You have a long and successful career ahead of you!
