I forgot that I had that... Anyways, After about half an hour, I got into recovery(F8, advanced options), and that did the trick... I'm running all the scanners(including Rogue, Malwarebytes, Spybot SSD, Avast). Not at the same time..

In other words, GTA is starting to run like crap... I think it's the GPU however, since my CPU doesn't hit 100%...
 
GTA likes to stall out whenever a car so much as bumps into another car... and MSI afterburner is showing 0% usage for my GPU now... I feel like my failed experiments with EVGA Precision X may have caused that.
 
Today, my main 'live' league of legend account was hacked or something because I no longer have access to it. I had also verified my email with it, to make it very hard to change my password with my proper authorization, but they still got through it. So, seeing this as a wake up call:

- Deleted 5 unneeded emails have and am migrating everything to my main gmail(craigslist offers anything not important), and my ProtonMail account for my games and personal data.
- Changed EVERY password in the house, including all devices and the internet
- Set up automatic scanning for viruses and malware

Anything else I should do? I am stil figuring out lastpass, so before I add that, ill need to make sure it will work for me.
As for the account, I filed a claim with riot and showed them my billing history for the time I bought something with them. Apparently, this is a 1-2 week process before they can restore my account.
 


Make sure you have a spare or two... Emails that is. I think I have 5 or 6? Regularly used. One personal, one work(school), one for coupons, one I use for sites that I don't trust, and one spare.

On a more On topic note, My PC is still running great...but I know its still not considered "High end" Anymore but I hate to say this, I stopped gaming months ago....So it does everything I need it to really....
 
In 96 or 97 I saw the G3 tour. Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Eric Johnson. Kenny Wayne Shepard opened. Best guitar show ever.

If you have never heard of him, you should really listen to him. His techniques are amazing and he is very good. He also does alot of nontraditional stuff like the use of killswitches.
 
you won't even go 25mph. I never did, but the course may be different now. When I took the test (in a manual) the rule was if you stall the car, you fail automatically.

The test is super easy. Forward, backward, 3-point turn, parallel park in a ridiculously huge and super unrealistic space.
 


Hey I was at that show! Freaking incredible. I've seen Muse a bunch of times (going all the way back to when Black Holes & Revelations was a new album :lol: ) and they get better every time I see them. Though I think on Saturday I got the scariest seat in all of Staples Center. :lol:
