  1. when you say "custom water cooler", do you mean a custom loop?

  8. Last time I checked, Zimbabwe is not South African
  9. Yeah, former dutch colony. My language (Afrikaans) basically sounds like trashy/retarded dutch with tons of slang and english words thrown in
  10. I don't think I've seen any other South Africans here, so if anyone is here....
  11. I stayed in Taipei for 4 years, and I really loved it there. In Taiwan they speak Mandarin, people often refer to their accent as "Taiwanese", but that is false, Taiwanese is a different dialect of Chinese that is only really spoken in secluded places by grandparents. Everyone speaks Mandarin. I found Taiwan to be more modern in terms of their infrastructure than suprisingly enough, Seoul... So that is saying something. The people are nice, as long as you actually make an effort to integrate into their culture and learn proper Mandarin. While it is significantly more westernized than the rest of China, English still isn't spoken all that widely, but that is changing very quickly as English is now a mandatory course in their school curriculum now. BUT, if you are sensitive to being made fun of, or "bullied", then don't go there; they won't hesitate to call you a 老外 (lǎowài). A good amount of the people are fairly xenophobic, but it isn't much of a problem, if you learn Mandarin they will accept you with open arms. If you have any questions feel free to ask. It is under direct control of the PRC So yes, technically it is part of China. BUT, it retains de-facto independence in some issues.
  12. +1 for the patches Also, give this particular collection a try, the performance hit isnt too bad and it looks gorgeous. Linkage
  13. Oh, and I forgot to mention I will be ordering a Logitech G502 Proteus to go with it.
  14. I have worn my Mionix Ensis 320 out really badly, and now I'm in the market for something new. I personally detest cloth mousepads, so hard plastic or aluminium is preferred. Also, on a related note: are there any websites that offer customization of plastic / aluminium mousepads? IE: like the websites who do the $1 mousepad thing where you can add a custom picture or whatever. Is there any website that does something similar for plastic / aluminium mousepads? Thanks in advance
  15. As long as you dont link porn or post the links themselves, im sure its fine. Its one thing to talk about it or mention it, its another to downright link it
  16. I would have to say my favorite is the case, the front mesh looks amazing, and the finish looks great aswell.
  17. Just talk with as many people as you can in English, try and isolate the sounds that make your accent distinguishable, and work on those sounds individually. I know the feels of having a super heavy accent, most people don't understand my English because of my Afrikaans accent
  18. Corsair air 540 in my opinion, its gorgeous

    Mic under $20?

    My friend is looking for a mic, i suggested the zalman clip-on mic, but he doesnt want one that clips on. Preferably a desktop mic. Also, he lives in canada... Any suggestions? I realize he doesnt have too many options.
  22. All twitch chat is more cancerous than a tumor. It's best to just add /popout on the url of any channel and just ignore all of it.
  23. Linkage Expires Oct. 4, US only I believe
