  1. Hi! I still know who you are, so it wasn't that long How have you been? Is your husband back from the military maybe?
  2. Man, I'm so happy I backup every damnation thing on my computer... If you're interested I can give you a referral link to cloud backup program that will back up unlimited amounts of data from one computer for $5 a month. It's surprising how expensive the data recovery is...
  3. Hi everyone! I will be building a new PC for my fiancee in a month or two and I'd like to ask you for help. It's been a while since I built a PC last time and I'm not sure if I have correct judgement anymore. The computer will be used mainly for heavy internet browsing (>200 tabs in her Firefox ), playing media (Full HD videos) and basic video editing. I know that it is nothing extreme, but I also know, that I want this PC to last for at least 5 years and provide a smooth experience all the time. The machine should be solid but at reasonable price. So far, my plans are: Use an old graphics card from the previous computer (some old GeForce, capable of playing 1080p videos), because video editing will be handled by CPU anyway and there won't be any games played. At least 8Gb of DDR4 RAM. I want to support AMD, so maybe one of the new Ryzen CPUs? I was thinking about Ryzen 5 with 6 cores. Brand new SSD drive for the C: partition and HDD taken from current PC for storage. DVD drive from old PC. Now I'd like to hear your opinions on following questions: How to balance my finances between SSD drive, CPU and RAM? Do SSD speeds have a noticable impact for casual users? Motherboards have a quite broad price range. Are there any significant benefits when buying more expensive models? (I know some allow overclocking while others don't. Any other differences?) Any other things I should consider? Please don't recommend any specific components as prices and availability in Poland can be very different. I need a bit more general suggestions.
  4. Europe - even the diseases are less deadly than in other parts of the world. 100% best place to live
  5. Influenza is so bad in USA? o.O Here in Poland I haven't seen even a single news report about the flu. It's just like every year, no worse, no better. And definitely we don't have tents outside hospitals to deal with people that have flu...
  6. Oh my, it does need spoilers, I totally forgot about it xD I'll edit your post to add [OB] tag and hide the picture in spoiler box.
  7. Happy birthday!!! Have fun renting cars!
  8. I like this idea. The toaster is intriguing.
  9. I recognize your nickname, so that's something!
  10. That long google link should be shortened to https://goo.gl/vxT7M5 or represented a text link, but apart from that everything is nice!
  11. a new meme going on the internet: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/ugandan-knuckles
  12. Actually, 3 users managed it. Twi, Kobold and Voidus. Twi is gone, Kobold isn't very active and Voidus is somewhere in the void.
  13. So what is this Arcanum thing that I keep hearing about?
  14. I'm not good with image manipulation, but here you are. You're toasted!
  15. That's a very weird way of spending your free time.
  16. There is an easy way to post a table in posts that I didn't know about back then. Make the table in Word or Open Office, copy and paste it. test Middle test test middle test The only problem is table borders an formatting though, but maybe it works with Word?
  17. In comments to one of Brandon's posts about the album: Sae Sae Norris is one of the authors.
  18. I'm still waiting for it to hit Spotify, but I guess they want to sell as many copies as they can in a traditional way... If you want to talk about it, feel free to make a topic about it
  19. @Steeldancer It always makes me happy when children with superior tech-knowledge use it to overcome limitations set by their parents Maybe you can cheat your phone and make it work after certain hour by simply changing the clock on it?
