  1. gonna make a GoFundMe to help with Avacado's incredible luck
  2. thought they were the same but the counts don't match. Gold: 58 + 127 + 96 + 7 + 75 + 22 + 19+ 3 + 1 = 408, not 357 Silver: 25 + 43 + 63 + 19 + 26 + 10 + 7 + 1 = 194, not 179 Bronze: 28 + 19 + 29 + 15 + 19 + 7 + 3 + 4 + 2 = 126, not 117 Medal: 30 + 58 + 32 + 14 + 31 + 13 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 195, not 184 I barely understand HWBOT points beyond the basics though, I just submit scores ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  3. make sure you show silver cups so I can be #1
  4. It's more annoying than painful unless I overdo it. The only real lasting effect is a damaged peroneal nerve on my right leg (weakness + pins and needles). I've got foot drop when walking/hip drop when standing and I get "shocks" in my back if I sit too long. If I stay within my limits I'm pretty pain free though. Working on my rig isn't really an issue, I just switch between standing/sitting throughout. And the missing lung I don't even notice, I can still rip bongs like a pro. some SMOK mods (and I assume others) have a max puff setting with a lockout that gives you a set amount of puffs an hour/day. have your wife set the PIN and not tell you? kind of high-horsey: but if you want to quit then you can quit. everybody has more reasons to not quit
  5. that's not how any this works D'Jango doesn't get free stuff, he gives me free stuff
  6. had a DVT that caused a PE back in 2016. Got one lung, a 10/10 scar, and my right leg and foot are pretty fucked. Got back pain from my new gangster gait, I can't squat, and look like a grandpa if I have to get up from the floor. I can't sit/stand/walk for long periods of time but if I switch it up I'm usually ok. I used to run a bunch and still miss it. I tried a few times but about broke my face each time if you want to quit: try vaping? It was a lot easier for me to ween off nicotine that way since you can precisely control the nicotine %. I started with 55mg -> 35mg -> 12mg -> 3mg -> 0mg over the course of about a year. The only withdrawals I had were when I first switched from cigs to a vape and it was only sweaty palms (no spaghetti). could be a new hobby while you recover too if PCs aren't right doable now. you can try different mods, tanks, flash custom firmware, build your own coils, DIY eliquid, ...
  7. Meshify 2 Compact? kind of pushing it though. your GPU length + radiator thickness = 344mm, case GPU length spec is up to 341mm GPUs with the front 25mm fans. Use a 15mm fan in front of the GPU and you should have room
  8. i'm thankful that d'jango is sponsoring my next build
  9. Borderlands 3 since Starfield got delayed
  10. 11 years ago it was already in the consumer space. the G6951 was $50 and had $50 "DLC" you could buy to unlock hyperthreading and more cache.
  11. http://static.hwbot.org/api/Query_API_1.0.pdf ? from 2012 tho
  12. he's stuck in a loop, someone reboot him also:
  13. Like I said in the OCN thread, I'd have been all over it ~2 years ago. 32" master race because my desk can't fit anything larger
  14. was considering grabbing one for Plex duty but I'm holding out for one that doesn't require external power
  15. are you on the latest BIOS/agesa version?
