Last year I spent about £1800 on flight and hotel alone, but this year I have found a much cheaper AirBnb and the flights are currently cheaper. Flying out on the 4th and coming back on the 11th from Gatwick. 
@BobbyPdue Want to go to breakfast and Cafe Jam again?

Anyone going from the UK or been before?
 
Im from the North West, I'm considering going to LTX2020, but I was wondering what sort of prices people have managed to get so far - or paid last year? 
 
They seem quite expensive - I realise Vancouver is expensive in general, but maybe it is more of a time of year thing this time,as other times of year seem much much cheaper! 
 
I'm just looking to gauge it before I commit! 

Forget hardware, if you had 200 trillion pounds today you could buy and own the USA government ? Donald Trump's dream.

Well my school had one acorn and a bbc micro

Imagine if that was in Pounds.

70% of the year I don't even want to wear a shirt, and I still want one of these hoodies.

HOOLLYY YESS (I swear to god Gearbox, if it has a battle royal mode...just let it be a normal, perfect game its meant to be)

Yeah we're well-aware of rtings, and given the typical TV upgrade cycle, I don't think 5 years is an unreasonable timeframe.
 
Also, there are plenty of TVs from the last few years that have ass-tons of delay and make for a TERRIBLE gaming experience. 
 
The other benefit is G-SYNC, which we still can't get on other variable refresh rate TVs since it's limited to DP.
 
I dunno. I see why you're mad, but I think you're focusing on waht we didn't say vs what we actually DID. It's not like we recommended this thing as the only option for big screen gaming.
 
Maybe a dedicated piece on cheaper low input lag TVs is in order though.

Uhhh, still soon™??
 
LTT's Designed by humans store is still under construction:

Their own store only sells T-shirts and velcro ties:

Well you certainly are no salesman ?

reddit?
I'd rather piss glass than visit reddit

the only people who need to know that information are Linus, his wife, his accountant and the tax inspector.

I would have phrased the answer differently, but some times there's just no pleasing folks.
Don't lose sleep over it

Water Cooling 101
I have been reading a lot of posting in this sub-forum and am seeing a lot of the same questions. So I figured this forum need some basic guide to water cooling. My basic idea is to take a ton of information on the internet and condense it down to as short and simple explanation of Water cooling. This should be a good starting place for most people. You will need to much more research than just this to be a successful water cooler.

I have spoken to a Mod and this should be made into a sticky soon.

My goal with this guide is to be of a FAQ than more of a building guide. Try and explain everything that has to do with what goes into a custom water cooling loop. I am trying to make a guide that will work well with Linus's water cooling videos on the NCIXcom Youtube channel. Trying hard not to cover what he has but make sure nothing is missed.

So welcome to my Basic Noobies guide to water cooling. Please feel free to comment or post with your ideas of what I could add or change.

So why do we water cool? Why would you want to stick a tank of water in a box of very expensive electronics?
This is a question that gets asked a lot on the forum and I thought one of our members summed it up best;

From our own MdX MaxX;
“It's not just about temperatures, but about noise. With water cooling, you can run fans at much lower speeds and lower noise levels than you can with air cooling and achieve the same temperatures. Especially for GPUs, I mean GPU fans get loud. Plus you have the benefit of cooling everything you want in the same loop.

And "good enough" isn't what enthusiasts strive for. Sure, multi-hundred dollar loops aren't necessary. An NH-D14 or Silver Arrow is "good enough." But being a PC enthusiast is much more than having a "good enough" rig. Most people here would have much lower-specced PCs if they only wanted what was "good enough" for them.

Also, it's fun. Building is fun. Taking on [such] an intensive project is a thrilling challenge for a lot of people. You get to really absorb the experience rather than putting together a system in 2-3 hours and then you're done.

And lastly, water cooling loops are freaking gorgeous. I mean look at them.

I would just add that for most of us that use water cooling is more than getting the best performance out of your rig. For most of us it is a hobby. Once you get started it is hard to stop. You always want to try something new or add something to you loop, or even multiple loops.

Time to tag all memes with the CC license, lol.

so, i currently do IT for a school district.
 
chromebooks are cheap, easy to replace, easy to get fixed if broken, easy to manage (our domain accounts are linked to google accounts), and easy to lock down.   you cant install anything on it, so students cant fuck them up with stupid shit(we have students installing fortnite and other shit on some of the normal windows computers).
 
not to mention if there is a software issue its fixed with a 5 minute wipe that the teacher can do without me either driving out to the school, or even having to be on the phone.
with a windows computer, that means a 2 hour re-image that requires me to actually go out to the school.(i spend my time and the district office)
 
 
and honestly, all the students need access to, is Google Docs, and normal web browsing.   chromebooks are perfect for that

So... VPN time?
