    You'll definitely have to compromise and go for a much cheaper computer. All the obvious ways: Attempt to get an allowance and start saving, ask for a computer/money for your birthday, etc.

    Getting a computer sooner than later is a much better decision. Shoot for maybe at least a $500 laptop. $1,950 is two months worth of my salary. That amount of money could feed a five member family for at least a year. You need to get realistic here.

    If you don't know what keeps you content, what the hell have you been doing your whole life? Nothing good comes out of sadness or depression. Get out of that **** any way you can.

    Simply enough, GO HAVE SOME FUN.

    Quote from minermanbob

    I like playing with my friends so i will get GTA though should i get the expansions?


    You should. I recommend buying everything Rockstar has made this generation (Red Dead, Max Payne). They could **** out a game and it would still be good.

    posted a message on Gabe Newell Says Windows 8 is a catastrophe for Steam
    He is complaining that he will lose business? Welcome to capitalism Gabe. Of course Microsoft will try to stifle software sales and turn things into their favor. They are a behemoth. Their app store will probably consume everything. I bet they will be getting people to pay THEM to get their software on there, when normally it would be the other way around.

    posted a message on What Programming Languages Do You Know?
    A know the basics of Java. That is the only useful language I know.

    I'm very familiar and good with Game Maker Language, which is used with a program called as you could guess, Game Maker. It's like Unity but it's geared more towards 2D games. GML is basically java but is not strict and doesn't need to be compiled.

    I'd like to learn C++, Lua, Python but don't even know where to begin. Anyone know any good tutorials for C++, or care to share what they used to start learning?

    posted a message on Alienware...
    You should never buy a gaming computer. You should seriously just build one yourself. It's fun to make your own computer, you'll learn more about parts and such, and save money.

    Alienware is **** because they are a company. Companies need to make money, therefore their prices are inflated.

    posted a message on Favorite TV Show?
    Louie is a great show. I recommend the **** out of it. Louis C.K. has complete creative control over the show, so it has zero ********. Every episode teaches you something new (especially if you're naive like myself). You'll laugh a lot too.

    I thought about losing faith in humanity when i only saw one person in this thread likes Breaking Bad. Breaking bad is hands (or nubs... if you don't have any hands) down the best TV show in existence. Bryan Cranston is brilliant.

    Peep Show is a British show that i recently found. The first few seasons really made me laugh, very enjoyable to watch.

    (The above shows are all on Netflix instant streaming, so get the **** off here and watch them if you haven't!)

    Also:
    Dexter (Up to season 4 only)
    Party Down
    Freaks and Geeks
    Spaced
    It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

    posted a message on MineCraft Crash, Can Somebody Help?
    You had it working fine at some point right?

    If you just installed a new mod and got this problem, then remove that mod.

    OR if you just updated minecraft, then one of your mods could not be compatible anymore. I'd then suggest to remove all mods and slowly add them back in one by one. Test the game each time you add a mod to find out which one is the culprit.

    posted a message on How to reduce lag in Minecraft

    I'm not entirely sure yet but I think playing in a smaller screen (playing without fullscreening Minecraft) helps it run a little faster.

    Playing the game at lower resolutions is a good way to improve performance.

    - Stop all unnecessary processes with task manager, and close all other programs.
    - Update your graphics card drivers
    - If you have a 64 bit OS (On windows you can check by right-clicking Computer > Properties. It will tell you under System Type), make sure you are using 64 bit Java. Downloads here. This will make minecraft "large address aware", so it can use up to 4GB of RAM.
    - Lowering your computer's screen resolution to 1024x768 (that is, if it is above this resolution) will help too.

    posted a message on First thing you said when you saw minecraft
    The random level generation is extremely impressive. This game is some kind of novelty!

    Too bad it easily becomes trivial. Minecraft isn't the best in large doses.
