I'm asking why he responded with "surreal", not what surreal means. I was aware of the definition of surreal.

If so, then the answer to your question was clear.

Why is it that so many forums, including this one, have a kb size limit on avatars but not signatures?

More people have avatars than sigs. Thats probably why

Nasa says we can expect to find Alien life from another planet within 30 years I believe.

 

If found.

 

How long do you think it will take before someone try to sext them?

Does this list have everything I need to run a game? Aside from the Monitor and OS of course.

According to a video I watched, the AMD chip and the motherboard negate the need for a graphics card.

It would probably run the games but at absolutely atroceous framerates. It is very limiting in what kind of upgrades it allows in the future. Edited April 20, 2015 by Andreaz1

We do have a limit on signatures, albeit done by dimensions rather than file size. We don't render signature images in mobile mode so as to limit the data requirements.

 

If people have signatures significantly above about 1mb in size I'll tend to disable them. I pulled one user's 12mb GIF a couple of days ago.

Ew, that is an ugly, ugly build. Don't do that. Just really don't. You can build a good PC on $400 budget, but it shouldn't be that thing. 750Ti is the only solid piece of advice there, given the budget.

Quick one for you K^2, It's easy but I am pretty tired right now so I am not quite getting it right.

 

Every year I put $10000 in to one companies shares starting January 2007. It has on average grown 15% per year. On January 2008 right before I deposit another $10000 my shares are worth $11500 (15% more) and then I get paid a dividend of 4.5% on the $11500 which makes it worth $12017.50. I then deposit another $10000 and the cycle continues.

 

So what would the formula be for a $10000 deposit x 15 % x 4.5% for say, seven years? I think what I am not quite nailing is the compounding for the $10000 addition every year. Thanks man.

It would probably run the games but at absolutely atroceous framerates. That's an office PC kind of CPU, and while you can get away without a graphics card for an office PC, you can't on a computer you want to play modern games on.So then I'd need a graphics card on that list as well, or a different CPU entirely?

Also, what is "atroceous framerates"? The only reason I'm asking what you meant by that is because I've heard people say anywhere from 30 - 50 being atroceous.

Below 30fps for sure, especially in such a new game as GTAV. Edited April 20, 2015 by Andreaz1

I'd ditch that CPU and motherboard completely to be honest. 30fps is generally quite playable, when I say atrocious I'm saying I (without having researched this much) wouldn't expect 10fps from that, especially without a graphics card. For gaming you will need a decent CPU and GPU, there's no way around it.Alright, I'll look around for that. Do you have anything you can recommend that's somewhat affordable?

[Andreaz1]

Actually, looking at some reviews it fares a lot better than I thought. You can get some <30 but still playable framerates with it. 1080p is stressing it a bit though.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-amd-a8-7600-kaveri-reviewsays it best I think.

 

If - as is likely - you'll hit GPU limits, the obvious choice is to buy a discrete graphics card, but move too high up the stack and the existing, effectively non-upgradable CPU will bottleneck performance, in which case AMD's own AM3+ platform, or Intel's socket 1150 simply opens up so many more gaming options. We were unable to test hybrid Crossfire - which sees users adding a discrete GPU to the existing APU graphics - but historically that hasn't offered great value on APU systems. To see a real boost to graphics power, effectively you need to replace the APU's own GPU, making it a waste of silicon. In short, Kaveri is the undisputed king of its own niche, but this is not the best platform to buy into if your gaming aspirations are likely to exceed the limits we've set out in the benchmarks above.

In my opinion this platform just limits itself so much it's not worth it. You might be okay today depending on your expectations, but tomorrow you will want to play another game which requires more power. At which point you might want to drop in a decent graphics card, which will bottleneck the CPU so you will need to replace it and the motherboard again. It just makes more sense to not close those doors for yourself and go for something that gives you a bit more freedom and upgradeability in the future. Edited April 20, 2015 by Andreaz1

Cool, thanks. I'll look around some more then. I'm only looking to be able to run V and some older games I can't buy off of PSN, and I'm only going to be using it for stuff like Microsoft word and photoshop otherwise.

[Andreaz1]

You should look up some more reviews of it. From what I can find, it's good value but "decent" when it comes to gaming and that was a year ago when it was released. You might be able to play GTAV on it but at low details with maybe some lagging. See if you can find someone else who has tried GTAV on that exact chip and see what they felt as every game is optimized differently and so on. Normal office work won't be a problem.

 

[edit:] Actually looking at this video and translating the description, doesn't seem the game will work at 1080p but they got the game working at 720p at 35fps so I guess that's basically what you can expect from it.

 

 

We test with the AMD A8 7600 Apuan GTA 5. 1080p graphics memory is not enough to open the game could not be opened in which you can reach the beginning of the video that setting.

My opposition to religion is based on reason rather than hipsterism.

Every position is based in a reasoning. There's nothing specifically provocative about that.

I know, and I wasn't trying to spark a debate. It's true that hipsters most of the time take up a contrarian stance, so I just wanted to clear that up.

New question: when did these fedora jokes actually start? You know, the typical association with neckbeards/douchebags/nice guys... What were the first instances of this meme?

 

Since when did nice guys become synonymous with douchebags?Oh, I don't mean guys who are actually nice. I meant those dudes who act like women owe them sex and are just pretending to be nice.

 

lol i got a friend just like that. he wants to be friendzoned before he makes a move. makes no sense to me. i think its worked once or twice out of a 100 girls

Can someone who's installed Ubuntu on Windows 7 help me out?

Did you seriously just call it a gaybox? Grow up.

he's like 15 what do you expect, its why i said this forum should have the same age limit as the game

I'm 15 and I don't even act like that.

Still, you only got to be mature after v2.3.6

Anyone watch James Bond here? Are there any movies that the plot is strictly tied to each other so if you'd want to watch a particular movie, you'd have to watch another one first? Because I want to watch The Spy who Loved Me but so far I've only watched until On Her Majesty's Secret Service and I don't want to be confused about the story.

[Andreaz1]

Just the account in the vast majority of cases they've said. Legitimate members or visitors could be affected by IP bans, if I remember correctly there was one just a month or so ago.

They're all made to be viewable independent of the others, but there are many injokes across the series. You shouldn't have an issue with viewing any particular one out of the canon.
