I think that's one of my customers.

RE: What's on your mind? - MetalRenard - 01-16-2013

Hahaha Yep seems legit. :P

Ok, now all the hype has died down over the fact that I finally have a worthwhile PC, I can safely say it's everything, and more, that I hoped it would be. I got a processor that would be able to handle MORE than I need so that later I could easily expand, and it seems to have worked well. My RAM fills up about 2x faster than my processor's capacity which means it could easily cope with 32gigs of RAM if I need it to later. :)

RE: What's on your mind? - Taylor - 01-16-2013

What do you mean it fills up twice as fast as your processor's capacity? Doesn't that mean you're using more than it's capable of?

32GB is absurd. I'm perfectly okay with 8GB. What I need is a better dedicated graphics card or a slightly faster CPU... neither of which I can exactly upgrade on a laptop, and I'm not keen on moving from this tablet PC. Ever since getting my previous machine... I have to upgrade always to tablet PCs now.

Which might become more common because of Windows 8, even if it's retarded in many design elements.

RE: What's on your mind? - MetalRenard - 01-16-2013

Hahaha you have no idea. 32gb is in no way absurd. In my line of work, you don't need a powerful gpu, you need RAM.
Virtual instruments load directly to the RAM and orchestral virtual instruments are the biggest. A single piano uses 400mb of RAM, my drum software uses 800mb. I don't even have "big" libraries, those use even more!

Also what I meant by capacity is that my music software uses my RAM up faster than my CPU which means there's room for improvement. It's easy to add RAM, but it's a pain in the arse to change your cpu. Considering mine cost around £300, another £100 for more RAM is nothing.

Well, my absence yet again was partially because classes started two days ago, combined with needing to move back on campus.

One of the game mods I worked on for music is getting quite a bit of press already upon release, which sort of surprises me as it's just a mod out of many for Amnesia.

Anyone got Steam? I recently signed up and my buddy list is kinda empty... XD

RE: What's on your mind? - DerVVulfman - 01-18-2013

I did a full 4 to 5 hour maintanance routine on my PC. Full Boot Scan, CHMDIR check, Defrag (of course).... the works Yep, I went out when the CHMDIR routine was running. That took the longest.

A couple of glitches I suffered before are no longer .... glitchy. Well, I do have 8-12 hour binge sessions of coding at a time.

RE: What's on your mind? - MetalRenard - 01-18-2013

Steam?! Yeah! I'll make a thread for it I think.

RE: What's on your mind? - yamina-chan - 01-19-2013

My Steam-Friendlist has been empty ever since I first installed it XD'

As per Topic: there have been many things on my mind lately. Especially something that has me starting to worry and be scared, once I realized it.
Some of you may know that I am undergoing a schooling for my chosen job at the moment, and hopefully will continue untill summer 2014. This of courlse involves work and effort and results in schoolgrades that will determine if I will make it or not. I love what I am doing and I worked hard to get the chance I currently have and I am happy about it. And yet...it has come to my attention that I have stopped caring if I do good or bad in something.
I don't know when or why this started but I know that I don't like it.
When I was told by one of my teatchers that I my grades in one particular subject are quite in the dangerzone I agreed, promissed to try and do better and didn't care. When I got the best possible grade in a performance in an other subject whith a teacher that is hard to please I smiled happily, said "Thanks!" and before the lesson was over I no longer cared.
And there have been other moments as well.
Ever since I realized this, there has been a pattern. I check my notes for something that needs to be done, don't feel like doing anything of it and wander off to do something else, realize my attitude, become paniced, rush back and work for it on a while, get angry or dissapointed -or sometimes simply bored- with my results, decide that I no longer care and wander off again. Repeat. Eventually I ignroe all thoughts of it and focus on something entirely else without beeing able to enjoy it properly.
I know I can't continue like this, especially since I do NOT want to fail this chance, or myself. I am, however, at a loss on how to solve this problem.
The fact that we had to read a text the other day about something verry similar and the fact that I need to write something on the subject as homework isn't really helping either.
