Here's a news article for someone ^.^ https://www.gamerevolution.com/news/462533-loot-box-investigation-federal-trade-commission-ftc

It is up to the game developer to stop these websites and it is their responsibility to make sure shit like this is know. Trading in general isn't bad but do you really support this system over earning your gear? IMO I'd rather have a game release a DLC every 3 months for $20 that adds a decent amount of content to a game than deal with people putting $1500 into case openings.

At least there support is somewhat quick, though slow to get the answer and information they respond once or twice a day. -
A 4790k in no way should be slowing down a 2070 and if it is, it's in very few games or scenarios. Have you completed uninstalled old drivers and reinstalled them? Changing out parts, even from a 1070 to a 2070 can cause some odd issues sometimes.

Nice! I try to do good throughout the semester to make finals easier, it's been an alright semester. MUCH better than Fall 2017 and Spring 2018... I hope I can get into the University of Calgary, away from all distractions and hopefully for graduation I hope to get the cash to buy a bike if I get out there. Want to pursue various other hobbies and if my first year at Calgary goes really smoothly with their qualifying engineering program I hope I can make it into University of Alberta on a pretty big scholarship. My GPA isn't perfect but I'm hoping the fact that my GPA is based purely on a 14-18 year old having taken all college classes will sway me in. I really hope it all goes well, the next 2 weeks I have around ~8 test. A few are easy, a few I have to sweat on. My ACT which I got a 23 on without studying one bit I'm hoping I can now get up to like a 29 which should get me in.. Sorry, a bit of rant. Somewhat stressed, excited, scared etc. -

62% on test* That was worded poorly. -
An upside is for government along as I do all the assignments I can average a 62% in government to get B
Once I turn in my other lab for my Electronics class I'll have an 89%, final is only 25% of the final grade but it's multiple choice and open book
I missed a quiz Monday but I might just retake it, worst that happens is it doesn't effect my grad (lowest grade dropped), best case I gain an extra 2%, at minimum need a 70% to gain .32% lol
Though Math... I'm happy to come out with a C.-

Man so much goes wrong the week before finals ?
DarkBlade2117 replied to DarkBlade2117's status update
Nothing really in my control, I feel too shitty to drive, had to take my Grandma to the hospital (she cut off part of her finger). I've missed my Monday and Tuesday class now. Both aren't a BIG deal but I'll have to make a quiz for my Monday class and hope something sends me the answers to the practice test so can make sure I know what I'm doing for our last test before the final. Probably won't pull out with the best grade in Math. It's annoying also, I'm quite good at math... when it's put in real world scenarios. We do math everyday in my Electronic Devices course, a lot of Trig, Algebra etc but the moment you throw shit at me that means nothing to my career I blank. -

@DarkBlade2117 Don't give up. It ain't over till' it's over. I want to see you get through this semester with a smile when Christmas rolls around
You can do this!

Showed my buddy my PC and he was like "Why'd you get this?" Pointing at my cooler.
I said, Why'd you just spend $600 on a 144Hz 1440p G-Sync monitor and 1070Ti? Because you felt like it, just like I felt like getting an AIO Cooler. -
I have so many ideas in terms of setup design and what I could do but I have to wait... like a sim racing setup with a 32:10 monitor would be insane. At the point where only little things will be done over the next 5-6 years until a major upgrade will be needed. (I hope)

DarkBlade2117 replied to DarkBlade2117's status update
Ha, more like this is where most my money went too. I just don't buy random ass things all the time, between this and coffee 2-3 times a week, the rest of it just gets put away. Will sometimes buy a game or two every other month or so but really that's it. -
Added up basically my entire setup... this isn't the mention off the top of my head probably well over $500 worth of random other parts I've had over the year. 750Ti, i3-6100, BeQuiet! Silent Base 800, random DDR3 8GB kit, a different HDD, an entire different keyboard, mouse, mouse pad(s) and headset... holy shit.
-
I just noticed that right now is the first time I'd consider my setup "complete", we all wish or hope to have more and always crave it, I could probably list 20 things I'd like to have for my setup or in general but in terms of it being complete I am happy. I mean, really not much more I could ask for and if this is what I had for the next 2 years I think I'd be perfectly fine. Hopefully it'll last through college until I need a proper upgrade.
-
lmao when anything I'd maybe want consist of USB Hubs, Cable management shit or LED strips and what not for some neat back lighting around my desk, tv and bed.

Oh no, it's been like 3 days and I have 24 hours in Destiny...

Destiny 2... the first game in a long time I've had fun with playing alone.

I don't mind it, what I do mind is inconsistency. By mid-term I should feel comfortable with how the rest of my semester will pan out. How tests are, how much I can get away with etc but nah this class has taken a complete 180. I should be able to come through, just have to take each opportunity I get for studying etc. -
Kid who misses over half the classes, when he does show up he's late etc get's an extension on this little project
I, early, always turned in everything on time ask for an extension for ONE CLASS and I'm getting at least 25% of the grade docked... Fun. Not like those 30 points or anything will likely be the difference between a B and C... ;(
Love professors who play along to the sob stories, I'm sure some kids actually have issues but when it happens this often this fuckers are lying.-

4-7 days... I ordered my monitor Friday at like 3 a.m. lmao
Nice birthday present -
Hm.. Guess I didn't think of whether or not a 32" monitor would fit on m desk. I'll squeeze it on somehow.

Grandparents may be concerned but this is hella worth it https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=0JC-0081-00019&Description=Pixio 32 inch&cm_re=Pixio_32_inch-_-0JC-0081-00019-_-Product

R7 2700U w/ Vega 10 laptops are already pretty good for the price considering in my opinion the target user base, if the prices for these can be really good it may be something I consider to look into. Lightweight laptop with fairly good keyboard is what a lot of Uni kids are looking for and Vega 10 has just enough juice to run some games for what time someone may have in between classes. Curious see what price manufacturers can get around for future releases.

Man last time my sleep schedule started getting this bad I started doing extremely poor in my other classes. Going to have to pull through... can't let it nearly fuck me over again. It'll be a tough one, especially going to have to focus on 2 specific classes. Time to put in that overtime of extra H.W. and study techniques... hope it all works out

DarkBlade2117 replied to DarkBlade2117's status update
I mean... those 3 quizzes basically mean nothing now and we have a test over what we've done for about the last 4 weeks, probably the longest and hardest test yet and then a final only a week later over everything... I'll be happy to come out with a B. Maybe I'll pull an A in both my other classes I hope.... -
I honestly really dislike professors who are terrible at weighting. Every quiz has been about 10-20 points up until now, Quizzes, we've only had 3 and really they only make up about 50 points. Quizzes are 10%... our final quiz was 120 points ;-;
And despite the syllabus giving us 2 weeks to work on it we had just over a week and even showing him all but 2 questions were done it's not affecting my grade more than it should.
Man I hope he doesn't dock to many points and I hope he doesn't fuck us all over with these last few test. We have 4 classes left, the last class day we have a test and a final a week later
