    But seriously I'm just posting this so I have somewhere to link all the people who ask me about my personal gear. Tired of typing it out over and over again for each individual component.

    c4pt1n54n0 reacted to LinusTech in Is Linus homophobic?   
    "Full homo" is a colloquial term used to imply that a relationship is sexual rather than platonic.
     
    The "homo" part means that the relationship is between two members of the same sex, so while adaptations could exist that are appropriate for use with a member of the opposite sex, I didn't need to use them because Slick is male, and I am male.
     
    It's about like any other joking around that friends (of same sex, opposite sex or anywhere else on the spectrum) might do. I've said similar crap to girls too, and no one cares about that. As long as everyone involved is comfortable with kidding around in such a manner, then it's all between consenting adults, and everyone else can just move right along.
     
    If anyone was offended, then two things:
     
    1. I'm sorry your feelings were hurt.
     
    2. Lighten up.

    Carrots, snap peas, nuts, popcorn, trail mix, Edamame, corn chip (plain). You can place the small stuff in a short bowl/plastic container and eat off the edge. The fresh crunchy stuff keeps you from eating a ton of other crap and the chewing aids in keeping your mouth active longer with less calories.

    c4pt1n54n0 reacted to LinusTech in FIRST BLOOD - Linus Tech Tips Forum Badges Now Available   
    Special Note: If you forgot to put your forum username in the PayPal notes, please PM Slick to get things sorted out!
     
    Special Note: The Pink badge has sold out!
     
    NOW CLOSED
     
    This forum (and for that matter the entire Linus Media Group operation) is not free to run. Many users/viewers recognize this and I've been asked many many times if Linus Tech Tips accepts donations or if we have a "tip jar" or anything like that and the answer has always been "No."
     
    Today all of that changes! We are proud to introduce the exclusive (one-time-only) "First Blood" forum badges (they will be resized and the name will be changed to "pins" later). These will be available to appear next to your posts permanently, and they will ONLY be available to purchase for one month. 
     
    You can contribute however much you want, but First Blood badges will be available in three different colours to indicate the minimum contribution level that was achieved
     

     
    Bronze - $10 (unlimited available)
    Silver - $25 (unlimited available)
    Gold - $50 (unlimited available)
    Pink - $500 (hand-drawn by Linus in mspaint, includes your name as a call-out on a LinusTechTips video, and we'll send you a video of Linus hand-making it to do whatever you want with (1 available. First come, first served) THE PINK BADGE IS SOLD OUT
     
    Click the PayPal "donate" button on the top right of the forum home page to submit your contribution and...
     
    PLEASE don't forget to include your forum username in the PayPal checkout so that we can add the appropriate tier badge to your account!
     

     
    Now if you don't have the money to contribute for a First Blood badge, if you don't feel like it, or if you just plain don't think we deserve it, we've got you covered! Unless something catastrophic happens Linus Tech Tips Forum membership will always be FREE! Furthermore, badges will not unlock any extra forum functionality at this time, and are simply a prestige item to add to your account.
     
    So while First Blood badges will only be available for a limited time, we will have other campaigns in the future, and there will always be opportunities to earn badges by contributing to the forum in other ways (such as joining our Folding@Home team).
     
    Thanks for reading, and thank you in advance to everyone who decides to contribute to helping us make this awesome community possible, whether it's through a monetary contribution, by lending your insight and wisdom to the forum with your posts, or even by lending a sympathetic ear to another member. We are grateful to you all.

    c4pt1n54n0 got a reaction from ericks_comp in Faster rendering. cpu or gpu   
    the 4770k will probably be faster than the 7850, however, be sure to disable gpu rendering, or to force cpu rendering, otherwise it will still try to have the gpu help, and it will get screwed up, i built a system with a 3930k and a 7970, and it was rendering alright, but it was slower than my machine with an 8120, until i realized that the cpu wasnt even reaching 25% usage while rendering, i tweaked my editing programs (I use both CS6 and Vegas, as well as many different 3d animation/modeling programs) to use the cpu exclusively (besides Inventor, it really does benefit from the gpu) and now it can spit out a 30 sec 4k clip in a few seconds. (I oc'ed it to 4.8GHz as well..haven't updated my sig yet) also, i would still upgrade that poor little 220 either way

    c4pt1n54n0 reacted to LinusTech in Ruin a wish.   
    Granted, but instead of progressing flat panel technology, manufacturers reverted to CRT technology with all the eye-destroying flickering intact, but much less accurate colour reproduction and lower refresh rates.
     
    I wish my Internet connection was faster.
