Alright, I haven't actually made any plans to go through the hassle of picking out a new username just yet.

And what if you weren't even banned or anything?

I mean, I suppose it'll still be pretty obvious from the outside who this new handle actually belongs to, but honestly, I was just getting bored with the old one.

So, I am officially on the hunt for some actual workout gear!
I’m heading out shopping tomorrow, and just to give you a baseline, I’m sitting at about 220 pounds right now, which means I usually squeeze into size 14 or 16 leggings at places like Target. Depending on the brand, that might translate to a 16/18 elsewhere. Since I’m planning to actually commit to an intensive training routine over the next few months, I really need to find some pants that won't immediately disintegrate at the thighs like my cheap Target finds always do—and ideally, something I can actually move in while working out.

Does anyone remember the name of that software for tweaking joystick configurations? I know I was using it just a few months ago, but my brain has apparently decided to delete that specific piece of information entirely.

I’m looking for a female friend to hang out with in person; I'm based out of San Diego.
I'm strictly looking for women, and I want to meet up in the real world, not just online. My interests are pretty varied—I spend a lot of time reading, playing video games, eating my weight in pastries, and grabbing coffee. I also have a soft spot for painting and writing, though I should mention upfront that I'm an atheist.

Thanks for the hand

My vulva is killing me, so does anyone know which cream is actually safe to use before I can get in to see my doctor tomorrow?
Basically, whenever I pee or have a bowel movement, the area feels incredibly irritated and painful. It isn't my urethra that hurts, though. I dealt with some pretty nasty diarrhea a few days ago after finishing a round of antibiotics, so I’m thinking that probably just left everything super sensitive and inflamed.

I’m on the hunt for a decent controller because there are just a few games I absolutely cannot tackle using a keyboard and mouse.
I was originally leaning towards picking up a PlayStation 4 controller, but if anyone knows of a budget-friendly alternative—something under $167 that still feels just as high-quality—I would seriously appreciate the heads-up.

I found The Sorrows of Young Werther to be a bit of a slog, though I’d still call it an excellent book; honestly, maybe its brilliance lies in that very boredom, since I actually found myself getting lost in every lyrical passage and the raw depiction of Werther's emotions. It was slow going, sure, but Goethe really was a master when it came to painting those scenes of nature and internal turmoil.

That’s why I’d love to see it stay on reading lists, even if it did shake up an entire generation of young people so deeply that it triggered a wave of mass suicides.😁

It’s been two days since my first post, and my buddy finally grabbed the rig to take it home and handle the Windows 10 installation himself. Honestly, thanks for all the input, but at this point, we're just spinning our wheels—it’s clearly not working and there's really no sense in continuing the troubleshooting here.

Timothy Kim60 said:Alright, so just tell me what kind of monitor you're actually running—like, which specific ports are we even talking about here?

Honestly, I have no clue; I'll have to bug my brother about it since he was the one who picked it up.

EDIT :
The monitor works perfectly fine on my old PC, so at least we know it isn't dead.

These slots.

My current setup

Gigabyte B360M h motherboard, LGA 1151 8th Gen
Intel Core i5-8400 processor (9MB Cache, 2.80GHz), LGA 1151, BX80684I58400
8GB DDR4 (1x8GB) PC4-24000U 3000MHz CL16 G.Skill Aegis, F4-3000C16S-8GISB
ASUS DUAL-GTX1060-O3G graphics card, 3 GB GDDR5, 192-bit, 1809/8008 MHz
500W FSP Fortron/source Hyper power supply, ATX 2.31, HP500, PPA5005003
Zalman Z1 mid tower case
1TB WD Blue HDD, 3.5", 7200RPM, 64MB Cache, SATA3, WD10EZEX

The only real issue I'm running into is that I have this other case lying around, but it only has one monitor port that actually fits; the other slot is just way too big for my needs.

I've got this old Samsung drive lying around, and I'm pretty sure I plugged it into the wrong part of the case, though I can't actually go in there to double-check right now.

Hello!

Every time I touch my PC, I get a literal shock of electricity.

The keyboard’s glowing, the mouse is lit up, the speakers have their lights on, the monitor is shining, and even the new rig is practically a disco, yet the screen itself is just staring back at me with absolutely nothing on it. It’s my first time firing this thing up to try and get Windows 10 installed, and so far, I'm just sitting here in the dark.

Ordered everything, just missing the SSD. 👋

It’s not like I’m out here downloading massive 80GB games every other day, but if I actually had to choose between raw speed and having a full 1TB of space, I'd honestly take the extra capacity any day of the week.

Adam Moore3 said:You need to select cash as your payment method to get that extra 10% discount on the whole cart. Also, you picked out a Zalman Z11 instead of a Z1 (I have no idea how crimsonstag84 even found that Z1, since the shop doesn't carry it), so you should probably grab something like THIS instead of the Z1.

It comes out to $5,900 with the discount, or $6,600 if you're paying full price.

EDIT: Actually, it just dropped even lower...
