People quote long image posts so when I'm browsing on my phone I have to scroll through them all a second or even third time.

baram. posted:I bought GTA5 last night hoping to play after work today. At 60gb for the download I had just enough time between then and when I get home from work to play. I woke up this morning and their lovely download manager locked up at ~20gb, so it's not gonna finish until it's almost bed time now. I preloaded the 60gb and the game unlocked 24 hours ago but between work, sleep, gym and social life I haven't had a chance to play it yet.

Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:I have to go to the doctor (which is gonna cost like 100$) to get refills on medicine (which is gonna cost like 150$) which both he and I know I need to take for pretty much the rest of my life. I have a lifelong condition that requires medication but my (first world) government provides it for free.  My FWP is that I still have to go all the way to the pharmacy to get it. At least I can order refills online though.

I occasionally watch minecraft videos on YouTube and it drives me crazy that pretty much every one is by somebody who can't pronounce words like 'sieve' or 'excavator'. The only other videos are by literal children.

We connected a chromecast to the TV in the office but my phone won't detect it. I have no reason to use it, don't own one myself and have no intention of getting one but it irritates me that I can't connect. I've read that using the TV USB port might not be supplying enough power, but if that's the case how exactly is it 'wireless' if you have to plug it into the mains to use it?

BioEnchanted posted:Aww there's always something to bitch about. I enjoy my job but if it gets extremely busy (Tech Support Call Centre) then I still bitch about it when/if it quietens down because that is kinda annoying. That's true, but I have a job in an industry I'm interested in that I studied for. My friends have jobs they took just to make rent. Also, it drives me nuts when they get mad they don't just get offered jobs that they want.

YeahTubaMike posted:Similarly, ever since I got a job I love with a great salary, I feel like I can't commiserate with friends anymore. It's probably weird that my friendships were/are so heavily based on commiseration anyway though. Continuing this theme, I just got approached out of the blue by a better company looking to hire me for a better job. I don't even need to look for and apply for new jobs anymore.

drgnwr1 posted:Order from a reputable online store (newegg) and if any of your worries happen, they are really good about getting it fixed fast. Yeah, then all you have to worry about it loving up putting it together  My FWP is getting cheques because it's the only reason I still have to physically go to a bank and none of the branches of my bank are conveniently close to me. Last time I went out of my way it was closed for 'staff training'.

DrBouvenstein posted:Your bank doesn't have an app that allows mobile deposit? I'm not in the US. You can pay cheques by feeding them into an ATM? Unless I've not been paying attention I don't think that's an option in the UK. Brightman posted:Just watch plenty of youtube tutorials for any step you're worried about. Hell, the last computer I built the loving heatsink had QR codes that linked to videos that showed how to do each individual step. Also i don't know if you've posted your build in the PC Part Picking thread in SH/SC but doing so might help ease your mind. Seconding this. I build my first PC about a year ago and the documentation that came with the parts was useless, some diagrams were smaller than a postage stamp for detailing how to connect things to the motherboard. Thankfully most things are pretty standardized nowadays and there's no shortage of YT videos showing how it all fits together.

I either don't care too much about who individual SA posters are or use the SALR extension to highlight individual posters. Beats looking at the dumb newbie avs or anime/cat avs all the time.

Brightman posted:Got any stats on that? I mean if we check the Steam Hardware Survey it does look like most people are at least rocking Intel and Nvidia, and the popular options (but not overall majority) for other things are adequate for running a lot of games, except vram, that's sorely lacking. Most popular amount is just a gig, almost a quarter of the stats above that are just 2 gigs of vram which is sorta pushing it. I think this is less a 'pc gaming is bad' complaint and more a 'bethesda makes buggy games' complaint. More precisely 'Fallout 4 was buggy on release ergo all PC games released have to have the last 2% coded by the gamer in order to even run'. My FWP is there are too many mods for Fallout New Vegas that I want to install.

I ordered Christmas presents for my family on Amazon and because I have Prime they told me the guaranteed delivery date would be Friday 4th so I set the office as the delivery address. There was a delay in the shipping and Amazon don't deliver to businesses on non-business days so I had to wait until yesterday (Monday 7th) to get them. It's three weeks until Christmas and I'm concerned other Prime orders I make might be delayed too but the whole reason I got Prime was to have guaranteed and speedy deliveries.

Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:I put on my shoes and went to check the mail (it's been rainy) and I got an orange card in that says COME GET YOUR poo poo, so I got ready and grabbed my wallet and was all set to go, and then I checked a box that was delivered on Sunday and realized THAT WAS THE DELIVERY BOX, so basically I got ready and put on pants and all that jazz for what amounts to no reason Around this time last year I got a red card through the door saying 'We tried to deliver you something but you weren't in'. After two failed attempts to re-deliver (they never even tried) I got two buses on a rainy December morning to the depot because I thought I was getting a Christmas present or something. Turns out it was a letter from my letting agents telling me my rent was going up.

I got a large amount of money in a cheque from my grandmother for Christmas. My mother said she'd put it somewhere safe and now she's lost it. I know it can be cancelled and reissued if we don't find it but I was going to cash it tomorrow. Now I've got deal with arguments and watch them unpack every bag.

I bought a Nintendo DS on eBay that didn't come with a charger. It arrived on Tuesday but the charger I bought probably won't arrive until tomorrow so I've had a DS sitting doing nothing for days and I just want to play Mario Kart.
