    I don't know if you'll really be needing a 2TB HD as well as a 1TB SSD unless you plan on storing your entire life and your children's lives on there. Just stick with the SSD and you'll be fine.

    ConnorJ got a reaction from Ben17 in Is C# a good programming language to learn?   
    I have been learning C# on and off for the past about 3 and a half years and I mainly use it in Unity. As I get closer to becoming an adult I am starting to wonder if I should continue to learn C# as a language for eventually getting a job or maybe use it in hobby projects. I did do research to see what the curriculum of my local college has for computer science and it all has to do with C++ and various web development languages. It kind of just feels like C# is not worth it to learn nowadays besides for Unity.

    Do you need to have a registered copy of Windows? I know that at least Windows 10 runs fine without being registered.

    ConnorJ reacted to Snowmirage in Do you take LTT for granted?   
    I've been a fan for years.  After the first handful of videos I happen across way back in the unboxing on a park bench days I've enjoyed slowly working through the back log of videos and watching the new ones daily over the years.  I think I can say with confidence I've seen every video on the main channel at least twice, some well into the double digits (<3 2 gamers 1 cpu)

    I was thinking today just how much I look forward to the daily video.  I've spent 100's and 100's of hrs with Linus and the other hosts over the years and every-time I pull up a new video its like seeing an old friend again.

    Maybe its this amazing beer I've been enjoying all Sunday afternoon talking (Thank you Ithica Brewery! <3) but despite of because of all of LTTs nerdy quirks I feel right at home.

    To Linus and all the LTT staff thank you for doing what you do, and please don't ever stop.

    We love you guys :fistbump: ??

    you just have to make a lot of stuff
    Try making a basic interface with tkinter, learn stuff along the way.
    try making a tool that can view (or modify) file properties, learn stuff along the way
    try making a "game of life" type thing, or cookie clicker, learn stuff along the way.
    rinse and repeat until you are the next steve jobs.

    You make a good point. I never thought an earthquake would happen where I live and two happened in a row back in July and yet here I am, having had that happen. Definitely nicer to be safe than sorry.

    I'm not actually much of a console gamer, I mainly use it for entertainment like Netflix, YouTube, and watching DVDs. This is the son by the way.

    I already have peripherals and some spare hard drives. I'll probably spend all of my storage device money on a nice SSD.
