  1. Hi all, little warning, gonna be a Long and maybe slight depressing story but I just need your guys help with something I went out for a drink with someone I haven’t spoken to in a year or two and we bumped into a really close friend of mine. We had a couple of drinks With him and we were ready to go but my close friend wanted a few more drinks so we stayed but I didn’t drink anymore. Next thing you know he’s ordered a bottle of wine and some high percentage pints of beer (2-3 pints) for himself and drinks it all pretty quickly ***Slightly graphic*** next thing he’s in the bathroom throwing up all over the place and over himself, he then disappears and I got a call from some girl who I haven’t spoken to since I left school (3-4 years ago) saying she found my friend throwing up outside a store laying in his sick. **slightly depressing** After spending about 20 minutes trying to get up and walking he started talking to me about him being really depressed lately and trying to put on a face to hide it and letting it Bottle up inside of him. He told me that breaking up with his gf tipped him over the edge and he started drinking and doing some drugs to let it all out. He’s started doing this a lot more and tonight definitely wasn’t the first time he’s got this bad. He was saying he just gets drunk and takes drugs when he gets in a really bad mental state. i don’t know what to say to him and don’t known how to help him or what to do. I’ve spoken to a few friend and they also don’t know what to say. I just don’t want him to do anything stupid. Any help will be really appreciated
  2. PLEASE DELETED IF NOT ALLOWED I’m flying over to Los Angeles in October (I’m from the UK and was going with 3 friends but 2 of them had to drop out) Instead of us getting the money back for the flights and hotel (it’s one of my dreams to go to California) would anyone be up for meeting in LA, we plan to go to six flags, Santa Monica, Slab City and Hollywood and really anywhere we’re both 19 so ideally someone our age. We’re in LA for a week (land of the 7th fly back on the 14th)
  3. Out of curiosity for all my friends out in the states, is Drum and Bass a thing in the United States? Just a quick google and I’ve basically not heard of any of the dnb DJs and producers in America and Canada. It just seems like most of not all dnb producers are from the UK and surrounding country’s
  4. ***Remove in not allowed*** Hi all. Wondering if anyone would help Me out. I'm re decorating my house have converted my attic into man cave. Now for decoration I wouldn't mind having a few licence plates from a few states like Florida, California, Arizona and Texas. two questions for anyone over in the US. Is it illegal to take/buy old licence plates from cars in junkyards?? Hopefully if not would anyone be willing to help me out and send me a few. I will cover shipping and stuff.

What Networks would I be able to use and what would be the best network. im pretty sure I can only use networks on GSM but I may be wrong
  6. Have you tried downloading an older nvidia driver for that card, i had an issue with the latest driver for my 1070, it wouldn't detect my 2nd displays resolution.
  7. that works for about 5 seconds and then it glitches out and does that.
  8. Setup NV surround and it broke windows, any idea on how to fix this other than not using NV Surround IMG_0247.mp4
  9. Just noticed my loop changed from a deep purple to a brownish orange colour. the only thing I can think of if it’s neen really hot in the uk lately and my windowed side panel has direct sunlight hitting it, it’s changed colour over a week or 2 I’ve attached 2 photos, one is the colour is currently and the other is the colour it should be
  10. no idea why i didn't check that haha thanks alot man that fixed it.
  11. yeah ive tried the lot im out of ideas
  12. so windows was downloading updates in the background and explorer.exe crashed and restarted. now my icons will not show up and I when I more icons to my desktop it tells me that the shortcut is already there. I can create folders but they wont showup in either explorer or my desktop but running the DIR command in CMD it lists the new folders. Ran malware bytes and start up repair, both had no issues. Any ideas
  13. not really, i got High sierra using apple new APFS and windows dual booted very easily with minimal bios tweaks only changing VT-d a few boot flags depends on hardware really if its common intel stuff you should have no problem but i dont think clover (the boot loader most people use to dual boot OSX and windows) supports linux, but i might be wrong, if you need any help im always here
  14. IMO, i think Microsoft is slowly making windows a mess and overall a pile of Sh*t. I think latest updates show that as well. Here is just a few things i hate about it. 1) So when installing, (this may be a bug) why am i forced to setup a pin. i dont have a number pad so it just makes life much harder signing in to windows. I know you can just remove the pin once inside the OS but there should be an option to not have one in the first place and when i click no to a wanting a pin i dont want another screen telling me why i should set up a pin and only having one single option to setup a pin. 2) it may just be me or is the background process that forces game and apps like candy crush and other crap getting worse. every day (i used a reg fix to stop the service now) i used to boot up my pc and find at least 2 new apps i didn't install and when i removed them they were just being replaced with more crap. 3) Again this might just be a bug but since i disabled the pin in windows every time i boot up my PC and login i get a screen that again tells me why i should have a pin instead of a password but at least i can click "set up later" on this screen. 4) i just think Microsoft are just adding random crap to there OS because they can. i get it, windows 10 is meant to do everything and have all the bells and whistles but i think we need a really striped down version of the OS and i mean really striped down. i would be happy with a start menu, a browser, and a recycling bin. And lastly i think there should be an option to disable all the telemetry inside windows and been able to uninstall all the crap they they install. I feel that you shouldn't need third party apps to disable and uninstall it all. just like Barnacules said in many of his videos. Whats your opinion on this? Do you think MS should just stop adding crap to W10 or do you honestly not give a sh*t and just let MS just what ever they want?
  15. i love Apple's Mac OS. ever since i got my mac book pro late last year its been been my daily driver, i only use my pc/windows for gaming now. ive even installed OSX on my main gaming rig and dual boot windows. Windows is really starting to piss me off and with the latest update, ive pretty much stopped using it apart from gaming, but i just get steam to launch in big picture mode.
  16. i just removed the fitting and swapped ti with the one on the other side of the rad and it stopped leaking, guess it wasn't seated properly
  17. could possibly be the o-ring, I installed every fitting the same and tightened then all by hand and all the others are bone dry, ive just taken the tube off and it seems to be the tube was loose, the others are on tight but this one I can just pull off with not that much effort. hopefully it just that.
  18. ok well the fitting is as night as I get it by hand, guess im stripping down the loop
  19. Less song more albums but the these albums by J.Cole and NAV J.Cole NAV
  20. just put together my EK A240 kit and theres a small leak in one of the fittings this is my first ever loop so I really don't know much about water-cooling. you might be able to see the water in the image, its the darker shade of black on the bottom of the fitting any help would be much appreciated
  21. so this is going to be my first water cooling loop ever, i was watching a few videos and all of them said to clean the radiator and other parts out with either distilled water or mayhems blitz but will it be ok to just use de-ionised water (since its just as pure as distilled water) and will this stuff be ok or is it worth getting the mayhems blitz stuff https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/272512807?sc_cmp=ppc*GHS+-+Grocery+-+New*PX+|+Shopping+GSC+|+All+Products*PRODUCT+GROUP272512807*&gclid=CjwKCAjww6XXBRByEiwAM-ZUIOum_OXnlgzQFjpAU684lWUHvIy28efhL5m_4MBgO-WnDkdHnaPC7hoCMKoQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=COea06Pg59oCFfcS0wodXBkNjw
