We've got a high paid inspector here, asking the important questions rather than helping some guy destroy evidence.

So I was playing MW3 and matchmaking put me in a domination server. After about 5 mins of playing, this dude joins and the text AESIR CHEATS begins appearing multiple times in the center of the screen. I try to exit the game but it doesn't let me. Then some other dude in the lobby types "Aesir cheats puts you in a botnet get out". In a panic, i try task manager, which doesn't work, and crtl f4, but no dice. So I press the power button on my PC and restart it. I am currently running a malwarebytes scan to check if his claim was true. So far, it hasn't detected anything. Could some MW3 hacker actually make my PC part of a botnet? Could malwarebytes detect this? If not, how would I know if im part of a botnet? I'm honestly not that worried bc cod hackers are usually full of bs but idk.

Looks interesting; thanks.

try this web site to check if your DNS is dodgy https://www.dnsleaktest.com
It might be that your ISP DNS just sucks. You could try switching from your ISP's DNS to openDNS

It depends on how you feel. The XPS/Surface/x360 would last and are decently built, but they are not upgradable  if you really want to future proof. If longevity is a real concern, business laptops would be your best bet - either the ThinkPad T460 or the Dell E7470, as they have fantastic build quality and excellent warranties/support. 

Sure you could theoretically play gmod or csgo assuming that this isnt clocked at -1ghz. To say "best-in-class battery life" is huge and knowing its going to be a indiegogo campaign it probably will not come through with what they're claiming.

I would highly suggest you kick the eve idea right now.  Its an indigogo project and from the looks of their staff they are all young probably out of college and wont finish at all and if they do it will probably be junk.  I have seen a lot of tech stores trying to clean out laptops with last gen GPUs in them so you might be able to snag a decent one with a GPU pretty cheap.

LOL
 
I like how the page even says that the 4W speakers are almost as much power as the CPU... that's not a good thing

or a Lenovo Y700

Dell 7559

What version is the graphics driver? Consider rolling back.

if someone is capable of doing that, why would they do it for you and only get 45% profit
when they can do it for themselves and get 100% profit
 
?!?commonsense?!?

hahaha 2.5k
ok then...
i bet 25 people would totally go to your gambling site and bet $1
 
there are people with 1M+ on youtube who are willing to advertise a website for less than 1% cut
so yeah, you need to get some more realistic expectations

Seems like a good idea, no clue on what language to use but hope you find your answer! Good luck!

If you're gonna make something for just Android, might as while just use Java (in Android Studio). Java is a very good language

Java.

Since you say your game will be for Android the best language would be Java, which is what most android apps are written in. However, graphics is another story. If the game will just be menus with some pictures then nothing fancy will be needed. But if you want a game with animations, colorful graphics, etc. then you will need to learn OpenGL ES (The Graphics Library used on mobile devices). This will require a steep learning curve for a beginner programmer, but if you are determined enough, you can do it. If you need more information you can always PM me.

I'm pretty sure I just had an epileptic seizure looking at your avatar. Please consider changing it. Please. I beg you.
 
It's a workstation laptop. The GPU isn't really optimized for gaming use. If you have a specific use for it, it makes sense depending on price, but it's not something that the average laptop user would get much mileage from imo.
 
Please change your avatar.

If it's only in firefox ignore it. If games are clean then it's the browser. I've had them too - check Bugzilla - LOTS of artifacting in FF and Chrome

Are you sure it's not just a glitch or whatever in your FireFox skin? You automatically assume the GPU is the problem, have you tried another GPU or intergrated graphics already?

Then it's the browser. Try Chrome and see how that is

Thanks, I'll try that!

Also try a different cable as well. I had an issue with a brand new cable, only a month old, and it caused me to buy a new monitor to find out it was the cable that is bad. 

try with onboard graphics

You can try drivers. If it continues happening, maybe roll back a generation or 2 of drivers to see.
