Owning a pet and being the brave one in the room to keep them calm worked well enough to keep yourself calm. As being happy and calm is almost as infectious as fear.

Hit that like button if more than a quarter of your annual income came from overtime-pay.

Winter storm warning in April, plus power outtage, resorting to a gasoline-powered PC and internet connection. Sounds more metal than it is.

One of the stranger cold-war films I've seen was a movie about the start of WW3 directed as though it were a western, set in Alaska.

You'd be surprised by how much flavor and spice can go missing from a forum post if you remove all formatting.

Bio
-There will be delays in replies. Largely due to working overtime, voluntary obligations; other RPs and online-things may compete for my attention.
'Bout me:
Started RPing (badly) back in '05, mostly doing nation-RPs with an emphasis on technology and strategy, later edging out to character-espionage and military-tactics before doing "less serious" character roleplays that were outside of the 2005-2008 continuity.
That's when I went to Dead-Frontier, and found the RP community there, joined a clan, did some pretty good roleplays and pretty much loosened-up my online-personality. When the clan-leader decided to move her RPs here, most of the clan followed.
Took a course in technical-writing back in '08, so now I may sometimes use the semicolon correctly.
In 2010 I dusted off the old nation-RP continuity I had, doing a few hetelia-esque RP-shenanigans there..
RP-Habbits: I tend to geek-out on little technical-details, and sometimes infer how those details would impact the background of the roleplay. Great for world-building, not so great when you had a perfectly good plotline and I just MacGyver it off the rails (though I usually er to the side of amusement, sometimes it creates very grim side-stories).

Well, you want to find out what sort of PCI slot your main board has, and what wattage your power-supply/board permits.
-There's a slight chance you're running a 20 year old chassis that simply cannot run the latest hardware anymore (the silver-lining is there's shiny surplus stuff that'll probably still manage PS4 level graphics)
90% of the time, when it comes to graphics cards "if the chip fits, it ships" and there's probably software (drivers) to let it function properly out there someplace.... those linux folk are scary, though... And you're kinda screwed if it's an Apple or Mac.
And lastly, desktop-tower PC master-race. When your rig is capable of being so large the air-ducts inside the case are big enough to lose a PS3 inside of... yeah... it has the case-capacity for utterly hilarious upgrades.
-Kinda like comparing a light pickup-truck to a racing ATV.
A bit of a tip is to have a hard-drive that'll function as a library of CDs instead of using CDs, as the read/write-speed is generally greater. Assuming of course doing so does not violate any EULAs (most of the time it won't unless you start renting out your hard-drive full of programs).
My approach was to buy a desktop from a pawn-shop for $200 and then clean and upgrade the hell out of it. Assuming you don't mind the system becoming slightly obsolete, it'll continue chugging for about 20 to 30 years with one or two comprehensive upgrade packages (current-gen graphics card to replace anything woefully obsolete, maxing out the RAM, using aging hard-drives as virtual-RAM etc) in its life.
And yes, I am that kind of guy to run a PC a five year old hard drive for storage, a ten year old one that came standard, and two twenties year old clunkers pulled from the junkyard running parallel as some emulation of a poor-sod's SSD.
Oh, and the version of DirectX hardware acceleration your graphics card supports is probably going to be the first thing to brick your PC out of the latest games than actual performance.

Oh, neat, I found the theme song to Battlefield V in a Nicholas Cage movie. From 1996.

Banned because with your combined efforts, I began looking at Warframe YouTube videos and now my recommended is arguably worse than it ever has been before.
What else can I say besides...
You're banned?
Banned because I need to explain this joke for you
Banned for vaguely resembling Sundowner from Metal Gear Rising Revengeance if I squint my eyes just right.
Banned because cherry-red octagons are bestagons.
(actually hexagons, but who here is counting sides to this arguement?)

Banned because you cannot see the winky-face.
Banned for turning this into a friend-zone, and we're all stuck in it with you.
