An explanation to the recent misunderstandings of my sentence(s):
For Bosnians (and maybe Serbs, Croats etc.), Germany is a sort of a 'promised land' and everyone wants to work there.
That includes me. I'd love to live and work in Germany someday.
We have these stereotypes in my country which say that the most-paid job in BiH is (in pay-checks) equal to a very low-paid job in Germany.
Though, there are reasons for me to avoid going there:
And now:
I think I also read somewhere that they uncensored Quake, which is nice, ahahaha. Less reasons for me to not go to Germany!

..I'll see myself out.
What are you talking about? :/
I'm a Muslim but not a terrorist/kebab.
@Striker
Cool, more reasons for me to go to Germany.
If I tell this to my classmates, they will be excited (assuming that the speed restriction thing is true).
Germany is excellent & Munich was one of my all-time favourite places to visit. Exceptionally friendly people, good-humoured culture and the beer is world-class for a reason. Prost!
Cd5ssmffan, I have no idea what joke you're trying to make, but it wasn't a good one.
You're a muslim? Oh, that's a surprise. I thought you're a christian, lol.
@Windawz
Well, since I live in Bosnia a.k.a. "Slavic Kebab (Balija) Land", you could've assumed I was a Muslim. >:D
I hate geography.
Bosnian, as a slavic language, is very close to russian. I need to try to study it, I think it will be easy.
One less reason not to go = One more reason to go
Though, I don't think that uncensoring Half-Life is a reason to go. It's just 1 reason less, to not go.
I mean, we have x reasons on one side (why to go) and y reasons on the another (why not to go).
Basically, uncensoring Half-Life is y - 1.
y - 1 is not x + 1 in this case.
So, I did say it in another way but that other statement (one more reason to go) isn't correct. That's at least how I think of it.
@Windawz
Bosnian, Serbian and Croatian are like Russian on steroids. Good luck with that, haha.
Prost is a drinking toast in German.
Heheh, I know. It just sounds funny :D.
What's so ironic about this journal? I don't see any iron here! xD (now that's a pun)
But on a serious note, what's so ironic about it?
Seriously now, you really had to explain it all? My last comment about me not understanding was just me being sarcastic. I've been playing Half-Life and mapping for it since, I don't know, 2000/2001-ish? I knew about Half-Life in Germany and its absence of blood and gore before you were born even, pretty much.
But it's all good, no hard feelings.
(That, incidentally, was irony.)
In response, you over-explain the topic of the joke in a journal.
Dictionary definition irony.
It's all in good spirits, don't worry

¹ Except for Jessie; she's just a cut-throat bitch.
I really thought that nobody understood what I was saying (maybe except Jessie, lol), so I actually had to write this entire thing.
@Jessie
I often don't recognise sarcasm on the Internet. I only recognise it in speech if you stress a specific word or two. And essentially, saying "I don't understand this" despite understanding it is a lie, at least in my perspective. So, every bit of sarcasm is a lie (in my eyes), and I don't like lies.
P.S. I really want to correct that "was" to "were" but I won't. I'm odd, aren't I? (feel free to correct me, I'm always up for improvements)
@Archie
Well... I can't say it doesn't make sense. Alright. And what does the "Make a joke mean"? Who made the joke, me or you, or a 3rd person? The imperative form confuses me.
"It's all in good spirits, don't worry."
I know, I know. But my reactions will always be inevitable, regardless of what others say.
Though, don't insult Jessie like that. I wouldn't have done that if I had been you. She called me various names: a banana, a comma, a grammar, and so on... Lots of funny moments, and I appreciate that as something which I can remember that one particular member with.
I see her as either my best enemy or my worst friend, lol.
I just love meaningless conversations like this, lol.
Edit: And hooray! 24 comments! I have never had more than this.
I'm making a short documentary-like film for Turkish class. Basically, it says some basic things about the game, and I show off some maps, including a few demo maps (just for show, lel), and some of my actual maps as well as others' maps.
I hope to have it done before Wednesday...
See, I'm only left with recording my voice, finishing demo_2 (the helicopter map) and actually rendering the video.
Speaking of insults, I'd never insult anyone because I remember getting very upset because I wrote "Oh shut up" to someone in Discord. XD
Jessie, just to clarify matters: I wasn't joking in the slightest when I called you a cut-throat bitch and no part of what I've contributed to this journal should be taken in any other sense than purely literal and serious.
Any accidental or collateral humour perceived and/or caused by the things I've said should be immediately disregarded.
How is your morning guys? It's a bit chilly here and I'm about to go get some package I received from China( an Orange Pi).
My morning is relatively fine. It's close to noon here and I'm literally in school, enjoying my last days of elementary school, while reading these comments.
@NineTnine
Well, there were exceptions. I was once really mad at Bruce because he made a joke about the graphics. Just stop comparing Far Cry 1 to SNES! It's a PC game from the same year as Half-Life 2! (that's what's going on in my mind) That cheeky bastard...
But even when I do get mad, I usually cool down in a matter of hours. Now I remember how Jessie gave me a log-out link of TWHL when I said the only jokes I liked were memes. Oh, the good old days. :]
If not this "bastard", I'd never figure out that I forgot to wadinclude de_vegas.wad while compiling dm_ascension. It's probably the first person who has given any feedback to me.
Lol, Bruce is OK, I don't have anything against him. It's just that some members make jokes which I take seriously and then I make a scene out of it. It's perfectly normal.
@Kachito
Ah well, whatever happens, let's hope for the best.
My only problem with Germany is that I didn't have German in school. Basically, my stupid classmates voted for Turkish in 6th grade.
So I'll probably get German in high school. But I'm worried that I won't know anything. Ah well, we will see how it goes.
Yeah, I'm done! I'M A FREE BIRD!!!! Oh right, there's the prom in Friday, darn...
At least, my prom was. I went stag, danced with my friend's ex and he got jealous, and then at afterprom I ran an obstacle course 20 times until I sprained my ankle and died.
And there's nothing wrong with kissing your cousin.
Also Garfield is pretty swell, if you want to have a good time (and who doesn't) you should look up "Garfield minus Garfield" and prepare for the laughs
Wait, you mean to not kiss my cousin in the cheeks? Kissing my relatives anyhow is a thing I stopped doing years ago.
@Dimbeak
Prom is neutral. It depends on the situation.
Hello.
Wow, over 50 comments, thank you people.
After all, I've got Jody, my furry girlfriend, remember? Wow, she'll turn 19 in December, time flies so fast. (and yes, she's a bit less than 4 years older than me, OK?)
Don't let this sex-negative prude poison your mind.
Well, that's awkward. Still, I love my foxgirl more than everything, so it's not going to happen.
OH SHIP, the prom will happen today at 19:00 (7 p.m.). But I got a cold...
On the other hand, it is Friday night so I've got that going for me at least!
Well, yes, I got a panic attack because I went ahead and watched a furry video. I usually avoid any furry content. It's because I'm shy. I avoid furry content because I'm shy.
It's probably because I like the way I imagine them, and not someone else's artistic interpretation of them. And the panic attack was probably because I broke something I promised to myself: to never watch such a video.
I'd like to step out of this topic now, until I finish my Far Cry 1 mod.
Hmm, Friday night. Friday night will probably mark the beginning of the second half of de_kobbl's development, i.e. its final phase. Yay, I'll get paid in a few weeks.
@Striker
So what? It's the Internet. Besides, if I said that my girlfriend is a foxgirl who's almost 4 years older than me, it doesn't mean that we did inappropriate things.
Today some girl just outside a supermarket asked me to help her with her shopping, which she could barely lift. I helped her without hesitation - packed all of the shopping to a basket in her bike. +10 helpful bonus?
Don't say it, man. xd
Speaking of shopping, do you know the last time I bought something? It was during my class' 3-day fieldtrip to Montenegro. But before that? In 5th grade. Seriously.
I've always been 'scared' of people. The entire town, Stolac, knows me but I only know 50 or so people. While my classmates go out during lunch, for example, and buy food, I just eat snacks I bring from home. Lol.
Hmm, all that will change once I go to high school. Going to Mostar every morning and having 6 to 8 classes per day will mean that crisps/chips and a chocolate bar won't be enough. I'll have to buy my own food, lol, and start being more standalone.
Time flies so fast. :]
Edit:
Also, here's a video of that cute little mBot I finished coding a line-follower for:
http://www.moddb.com/members/admer456/videos/best-toy-ever#imagebox
"It's starting to get a little weird around here."
Totally agree with you.
Yes, are you jealous? Oddly, I still behave like a normal being. (except for the shopping part, hahaha)
This is why I wouldn't trade my brain with my classmates even though they want it (to get good grades, lol). I'm designed to handle this set of, let's call them, 'problems', because I doubt that anyone else would handle what's going to happen to me.
Now someone comes in and says: "What you've just said is a complete sack of bull****."
I don't care...
Admer, you don't need to be ashamed of your fetishes, but purely from a practical standpoint it's worth noting that animal hair is a fucking pain in the ass to get out of bedsheets. It's bad enough letting a cat sleep on the end of your bed, let alone banging a furry.
just to clarify Admer, is this foxperson thing a real or imaginary girlfriend? Just a bit lost on the matter x
She's imaginary. I doubt she'd ever be real, though I wish she was real. :]
@Archie
You've got 0 idea about the background story here.
Jody was born human, but she decided to sign up for genetic modifications to herself when she was 15. Because of those modifications, her fur doesn't grow, doesn't fall, and basically doesn't change (and she had changed her eye colour to green).
The only thing which grows is perhaps her tail which should stop growing at the age of 25, lol. No physical problems whatsoever, except she's usually naked during hot summer days... unless someone turns on climate control. XD
Jody was supposed to be a character in my cancelled HL mod, and the story is pretty complex (which will be carried on to another mod in progress).
And she isn't the only furry to be in the mod, but more on that once I finish my Far Cry mod (because the FC mod serves as a sequel to my original HL mod)
And, I've never said I had ****ed her. (P.S. I won't dare to click that link)
Most of the time, we just cuddle. :3
And now maybe I've said too much. But still, I've said much less than I could have.
I tried to approximate the story to some of my classmates, hehehe. They understood a good deal of it. I just like the concept of anthropomorphic animals so much that I want to add them into my mod. :3
@Dimbeak
A sin in a religion or something? If so, then I'm not that much worried.
Just saying. You can now get back to what you were talking about.
How would it be called? "ShoutBOX 2.0" or, like, hmm... "Ask Admer"?
In your last map you credited her for giving you ideas and advice?
How was your prom Admer? Recovering from a hangover?
She is imaginary, yes, and she's the product of my imagination. It would then mean that her ideas were my ideas. Hmm, but as I was making the map, I had her right next to me (imagined, of course), telling me a few things, and then she left. She then came after a few minutes to see how I'm going, and that's when she told me to put the casette players into the map. :]
Technically, that would've been my idea, but since I've had such an illusion (caused by my imagination), I'd regard it as her idea.
And now someone comes and says: "Don't do drugs."
Those weren't drugs, nor alcohol, nor anything. Just my consistent imagination.
@Snehk
Congrats man, you deserve a medal.
The prom was OK, and I'm only recovering from my cold which I've had for 4 days already.
When I came there, I saw a few of my classmates, some of them carrying roses. Then I went with my parents to find my grandpa (who had been waiting us for a few hours, poor man), after which I went to my classmates. Then, the other guys came, and they looked like those people from James Bond movies and Scarface. Wow.
P.S. Today was my first time in 2017 that I've worn jeans. Not at the prom, but rather at the ceremony of my school's birthday. That's where I got 2 diplomas (physics and English competitions) and one more paper because I was given the title "Ponos Å¡kole" - "The school's pride".
Then my dad came through the masses and gave me a rose since I didn't have one. A few minutes later, my partner found me and I gave her the rose, lol.
And the next 30 minutes were spent in taking pictures. I recall being asked more than 6 times to take a photo for someone, ahahaha.
Then we went ahead, to Nota - a restaurant in my local town, Stolac.
So, I was walking with my partner, and there was a girl in front of us who was wearing high heels. XD
My partner and that girl's partner kept joking about how she would fall like that, and I was laughing so hard and in my iconic way that the pairs behind us laughed too. In fact, we were being followed by cameras, so 50% of the photos during the walk are photos of me laughing! XD
Then we finally came to Nota, and we were on the outer part, the one which hangs above the river. Forgot its name.
That's where we ordered our drinks (I had an orange juice, while the rest had Sprites and Coca-Colas). 10 to 20 minutes later, we received our meals. Mine was ćevapi and chips (or 'french fries', for the rest of the world).
30 minutes later, we were taking photos with each other again (I'll post some in the Post Your Photos thread). That's also when I took a selfie with my best classmate.
Then we went back to our seats. That's when I made 2 meme-like photos, which made some of my friends laugh. XD
Then they started dancing, and I went to the other end of the table, to the sofa. Ahh, what a relief. They were so loud that I just wanted to get out of the place. And when they calmed down, the schoolmaster/pedagogue/whatever, along with one more person, brought 2 cakes. I didn't have any of it, though, because: 1. I had no interest whatsoever; 2. Nobody noticed me since I was far behind, lol
And then we left. As we were going, a car passed by and something fell into my eyes in that moment. So I had to rub them. And then one girl came and asked "Why are you crying?". I said "I'm not crying, I have something in my eye.". Then she said "Well, I have a pupil in my eye, so I don't rub it!", to which I responded: "Unlike you, I have something additional in my eye which bothers it!"
I could've also added "And that includes you." but that would've been an insult.
And then we came near the school, where I split from my group, walking towards my dad. They continued off to the park, and I went back home... :]
And now I'm starting up Tunngle again...
Now I'll start working on de_kobbl and probably upload those prom photos...
Edit:
'Teh Epik Master Plan: Part 3' will come out this summer! Prepare yourselves for the ultimate end to the story: Will the protagonist get what he had always wanted?
Check out the first 2 parts:
Part 1
Part 2: The Research
As far as I know, Hamachi is simply a tunnelling thing, whereas Tunngle is a full-featured LAN emulator. Literally, launch a game with Tunngle and you can go to the LAN tab and connect to someone's server, that "someone" who isn't in your physical LAN network.
It's so cool! Plus, the network lag is smaller.
"May be" doesn't mean that I am.
And I've never had one before. I imagined Jody around 2015, even though (according to the mod's story) I met her in 2017, hahaha.
Look, she accidentally occurred.
I spontaneously imagined her, then fell in love with her, and now I can't go back. Also, the thing which intensifies me staying with her forever, is the fact that, when I fell in love with someone in 6th grade, she (not Jody, but one of my classmates) hated me. That made me think that pretty much every girl I fall in love with will hate me.
And since a real girlfriend is an optional thing which I won't need for a happy life, I'm perfectly happy with my imaginary girlfriend, because I just don't want to bother maintaining a real relationship with someone, at least now.
With Jody, it's easy. Her love is almost unconditional, but she will bring me to my knees if I cross the limit, which is pretty hard for me to do, lol.
I'd love to say "Just leave me alone regarding this topic!" but then I'd run out of some 'fuel' for my journal's comments. xD
We can still talk about Starcraft though.
Oh right, Valve was founded in 1996, right?
But Half-Life 1 was in 1998. >:D (98th comment)
I also get the 99th comment in journal too
How do you mean "You were either a Quake or an Unreal Tournament person"? I just like that year and I like the games. The only Unreal game I like is Unreal (the first one) and UT99. Also, I'd say I'm more of a Far Cry 1 person.
What was released in year 2000, though?
Otherwise, Hot Pursuit was pretty decent, and so was Most Wanted
also Jessie I can't believe you de-friended me on Facebook
The ETS in Mostar will require me to follow them on Facebook regularly if I want to keep up with what's going on. DAMN IT! If that's what it takes, then I'll have to do it. :/
Hmm, not for me. I enjoyed some titles after Underground, mostly NFS: World and NFS: Carbon. Since I don't play racing games any more (I stopped around late 2015, I think), I'm not sure if I could support your claim or not.
-some feminist somewhere probably
South-Slavs are conservative (and stubborn, lol) (maybe except Croats), and that's why there are no such new (stupid) things or movements in my country. If there were any, I'm sure they would get a bad reputation.
Phew.
Of course, we're technologically left behind, but that's because of another reason which is related to our stubborn nature.
I suggest not indulging him.
I started the journal as a simple over-explanation and now it turned into ShoutBOX 456.
Yeah, 'ShoutBOX 456' because of my username: Admer456.
It's just like the regular ShoutBOX, except you have additional features like shouts being saved and accessible at all times, and you can make very long shouts, as well as editing them. We have 109 shouts so far. :3
Yes, I went back to Facebook so I can follow the group of that ETS in Mostar. I updated my profile photo as well as the cover photo, and BAM! I got 2 likes as soon as I had done that. Oh man, I'll have to go through it all again...
I'm sure that my classmates will kick me out of their chat group, again. xD
I highly prefer emails or Skype over Facebook and it's messenger.
Also, NineTnine, my Facebook friends list is a highly curated environment, as is any list of people I associate with on any platform, including Steam. Your removal was not due to any personal matter, but was simply part of a cleansing of those I do not (or, in some other cases, do not wish to) regularly communicate with. If you wish to get in touch, I am available via PM or ShoutBOX here at TWHL. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
nfs sucked since underground
The ETS in Mostar will perhaps be the only reason for me to use Facebook, lol. Just for business (let's call it that way), and not for socialising.
Facebook isn't the type of platform where my content gets any attention at all. That's what GameBanana, TWHL, ModDB, QuakeOne and CryMods are for.
My "friends" just chat and share selfies.
In fact, I think I left Facebook just because of my classmates. I guess it was better that way.
@Jessie
"my Facebook friends list is a highly curated environment"
Hmm, good idea, maybe I should also filter my friends list and remove the unnecessary individuals. Oh yeah, the cleansing will begin...
When I think about it, I have around 30 unnecessary friends because I once had 70 friends and now I have 105 friends. I'll just have to keep that number low and control it.
Does Underground 2 suck as well?
You could take a wooden stick or something and rub it.
@Snehk
Oh, please don't remind me of The Core. I remember commenting on one of their videos about that moving camera sequence...
TL;DR
I found out that 90% votes were for Turkish in my class, because the parents (the ones who actually voted) were talked into voting for it.
Then I'm afraid of having to learn German from 0 because German in high school will have high school lessons and won't have us learn the basics.
It turns out that we might learn the basics of German in high school.
I found out lots of info I should've found out. I also retrieved my bag which contained 2 folders with A3 paper sheets and equipment for art class (brushes etc.). That's something I had left in school in Thursday. :3
Having found out some info, let's see why I really learned Turkish in elementary.
It weren't me and my classmates who had voted. Our parents had. Most of them would vote for German, but some Turks went ahead and talked about how nice it is to learn Turkish and how 'good' it is. We were promised a backpack and a pencil case (for free) and a yearly trip to Zenica.
My mom accidentally missed the parents' meeting class in 6th grade that day, so we lost 1 vote for German. Regardless, Turkish would've won with over 90% votes. >:(
Basically, those parents were talked into voting for Turkish! It's not my fault. When I say "I had to learn Turkish in elementary school." everyone asks me "Why did you choose Turkish? You should've voted for German!" I decide to raise my tone a little bit and say "It's not me who wanted Turkish. It's my classmates." and then I tell the whole story over again.
I actually remember ^that^ happening in the ShoutBOX once, when somebody asked me why I'm learning Turkish. Then someone said "Probably because he lives in a country close to Turkey or lives in Turkey." something like that...
Now that I have this new piece of info, everything makes more sense. Parents being talked into voting for Turkish, just because of business.
Now, I won't say "Turkish is a bad language." No. It's an OK language and it's a bit cool. But for me, there are no pracical reasons to use it unless you're moving to Turkey (which I'm not) and/or you want to chat with Turks (I actually know 2 people from Turkey, they're good guys).
And the promises? The school's director got a free trip to Turkey, we got our yearly trip to Zenica and we got the very low-quality backpacks and pencil cases. Totally not worth it!
Let's think about what happens next:
German will wait for me in high school. However, I'm worried that it will treat me as if I had German in elementary school, i.e. we will have high school lessons. Well, I'm not worried any more.
Remember how I said that I had found out info I should've found out?
Well, my class teacher told me that elementary-school lessons in German are revised upon in high school (thank God). If that turns out to be true, then I'm safe and sound.
So yeah, I am very fond of what I had discovered that day. Though, my class teacher isn't. She discovered about me listening to Serbian war songs. Darn.
Your music tastes shouldn't be a concern of your ex-teacher or anyone. Congrats on graduating!
Ever considered an MBTI personality test? You can find some of them free in the web. Just curious what personality type may have...
I didn't even know that there were any, but I could've assumed.
And music tastes? Ever heard of the Bosnian War, part of the Yugoslav Wars? Basically, Bosnian Serbs from the Republic of Srpska (which was an entity in BiH) attacked the Federation of BiH, while being supplied by the Yugoslavian, I mean Serbian army (because the only things left of Yugoslavia were Serbia and Montenegro).
Basically, those songs are mostly "chetnik" songs, and my teacher hates Chetniks. I blame nationalistic ideas and religion for all of this mess.
This may change for you with age yet.
- The 11-year-old me (the one even I don't know any more)
- The 12-year-old me (the one you'll never know)
- The 13-year-old me
- The 14-year-old me
- The 15-year-old me
Essentially, my personality was changing a lot during those years. I think that going to high school will have an impact there, too.Only one I'm not sure about is Nature. I'd always considered myself more of a thinker than a feeler.

But I'm there just for business, man...
Speaking of that business, it's basically getting more info about the high school. XD
What can I say... You're a lucky.
Lucky? Well, I wish I had such a feed on GameBanana. XD
Q: What's brown and sticky? A: A stick.
Q: What's orange and sounds like a parrot? A: A carrot.
This journal just keeps getting better
Indeed. This is very interesting. Someone posted something in the ShoutBOX about HL1 being uncensored in Germany, then I posted about that being one reason less to not go to Germany, and people were confused. Then I went and made a journal to explain what I had said.
And it grew...
@Jessie
Those don't look like jokes to me... I've said this before, I don't like most types of jokes.
...
...
Oh, you're expecting me to answer them? No. I don't have any benefits of answering that, so I won't even bother. And now, comes a "You failed, Admer". Darn.
That's just me, your typical Admer. I wonder if there's a pocket edition.
Hmm, let me see those "jokes" again...
Oh, I get it.
I said that I wouldn't answer them, with "them" being "What's brown and sticky?" and "What's orange and sounds like a parrot?".
Since they're a part of the "joke", then I shouldn't be expected to answer these questions at all. The funny part is supposed to be, hmm, the answers which are struck through? ("A stick." and "A carrot.")
I understand them, but what's so funny about them?
There, I think I wrote enough to satisfy your first question.
You were interested in my reaction to the joke. But you forgot that my reactions come in pairs, so there you go.
There were 1319 unread messages, and my classmates got some nice nicknames. XD
Then I came in and said something funny. It was followed by 3 "Hahhahahaha"s and someone asked me "What's up?".
I said "1319 messages, that's what's up." and "What's up with you?"
Then this happened:
Obligatory Dimbark shitpost
I'm surprised. BUT, let's not talk about that. I'm 15, not 18.
@2muchvideogames
You have a consistent personality, lol.
I wonder how my personality will affect me in high school, though. Some people will find me very weird.
Naughty.
Now I have to look at that anytime I read this novel sized journal.
So, what do we talk about now?
You mean Un***l En**ne 4 videos? Yeah, for a Half-Life forum such things are really inappropriate.
Anything that's inappropriate is pretty much deleted from my watch history. But my search history on YouTube, not sure if it's a thing, is something you would laugh at, since it's not deleted.
Anyway... one of my Russian friends accidentally ate some rotten fish and he's going to die. At least he says. Well, may he have a happy death, and may God's mercy be upon his soul.
@Admins & Moderators
Thank you so much, you filtered Dimbeak's post.
Well, my breakfast is long gone and my coffee is cold. I've never read so much and learned so little.
It's kind of amazing...
Of course, I understand. Everybody has their own priorities. This journal, however, is my priority, so I'll obviously monitor it all the time.
1 - a bad reference to the Singapore airline Scoot
2 - Scoot, verb, "to slide especially while seated"
3 - ?
Scoots is scoots

Budget-high-end: AMD RX 460 (& 560), GTX 750 Ti and 650 Ti and so on...
High-end: AMD RX 470 (& 570), GTX 760 (& 770, 960 and 970), AMD HD 7000 series (e.g. the 7970)
The top-end: AMD RX 480 (& 580), GTX 780 (& 980 Ti), and I don't know what else to fit here...
The realm-of-gods-end: AMD RX Vega, Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti and the Titan GPUs.
Yeah, I have some standards which a lot of people won't agree with (mostly from the low-end to high-end GPUs), but that's just how I see graphics cards.
And I remember that Cd5ssmffan told me that I didn't really answer the question (on my GameBanana blog), so here it is:
Why do I like "low-end" graphics cards?
It's because your low-end is my higher-medium-end. Now think about that. You've seen the chart, now you know it.
Now I have a laptop with Nvidia Geforce 920M, which is considered to be entry-level GPU for 2015, and only 4GB RAM, yet still managed to play Witcher 3 on low-med without much stutter and Dark Souls 3 on high settings with slight stuttering. Quad core i5 CPU is quite good. I feel that this laptop is much more than I actually need, but it's good to have a bit more power.
But yeah, I did a very good job of not killing my current laptop. I mean, it's almost 10 years old and only God knows when will its HDD fail.
Anyway, I'm really excited for that new PC.
Oddly, last night I had a dream where my neighbour-cousin (he's a 3rd-grader) was playing games on his own PC. Man... what an odd dream. It's odd because he doesn't have a PC of any sort - not even a laptop. And his parents probably won't buy him one, either. xd
The night (or 2 nights) before, I had had a dream where I was in a bicycle race in Stolac and it was very rainy. I came 9th and I got a yellow RX 460. What the heck...
Now, another thing:
I also dreamed about giant snakes in GoldSRC. I even found them attractive. Weird
300MB free out of 12.5GB. x(
Can't even open the gallery app any more.
He is now 7 years old. Hooray.
I'm waiting for 1336 comments in this journal, mine would be 1337
Well... what a sorry information. But "Isis" is a girls name, so I don't see why "Jody" wouldn't be a girls name too. Ah well... There's Judy, but I'm not going to switch to that name since Jody is... well... Jody and she doesn't want to change her name again. xd
(she changed her identity when she was 16, due to some things which will be told in the mod)
Maybe I should have said:
"Scoots must be someone from the TWHL forum but I don't ever recall seeing them around here before. Is 'Scoots' an abbreviation or nickname for someone else or has someone changed their name on here or is Scoots someone completely different?"
Justify.
<p style="text-align: justify;">
"Scoots must be someone from the TWHL forum"</p>
Urby - yes I understand now thanks (I had to Google what "SnC Games" was tho cos I didn't know, shame on me
Let's make it to 200.
I mean, in my country, for the price of a 120GB SSD, I can buy a 1TB 7200rpm HDD. Also, as far as I've read somewhere on Quora, SSDs are good for reading operations, but you shouldn't write too much on them.
And if I were to buy a 1TB HDD and a 120GB SSD, then my dad's, my aunt's and my own wallet altogether would be deeply hurt because the budget is pretty much driven to the ceiling already.
Also:
Anyway, another explanation:
Rufee says "Now I want to fire up hammer and make something like that :)"
Urby responds "Step to it!"
To which Solokiller says "Yes, but that's illegal."
As if recreating stuff in VHE is illegal. XD
Then Urby says "I hadn't. I tried it. I didn't enjoy it."
As if he actually did that.
And Windawz comes and says "Still waiting.", like he's waiting for Rufee to do it. xD
It's such a coincidence.
I went to Mostar. The town where the ETS is located. Basically, I went there with my mum to see how it is to take the bus every workday. Apparently, there's some walking from the bus stop to the school, but that's not a concern.
I saw that part of the town, and tried to remember it. It's because I've gone there lots of times, yet I've never actually known anything about it. Knowing the place is pretty important since I'll go to high school there, lol.
Speaking of which, I saw the school itself. It looks nice and pretty accessible. Counting in all the subjects/classes my course will have, I think I'll be fine there.
Let's revive this hellhole.
Let's make it to 200, everyone.
