Comment Overclocked it to death (Score 1) 317

So, what category does that go into? But I got some other old stuff, like two Amiga 500's. One of them is overclocked, swapped out the stock cpu with one that's rated for higher Mhz and doubled the clock. To bad the I/O chip tries to write to the floppy drive at twice the speed too. Works great besides not being able to write hehe.

Comment Re:Steam is actually fine (Score 1) 109

You can only start Steam in offline mode if you've started all your games at least once while being connected to their servers. If you got one game installed that you haven't run since you (re)installed Windows and/or Steam you're unable to start Steam in offline mode. I found this out the hard way when I was without internet for a couple days after a recent reinstall so many installed games had not been launched since the reinstall.

That game will be old news by the time I'll be any good at it then, if this story is true. I'm having a hard enough time trying to teach myself how to use a computer mouse righthanded after having used it lefthanded for 25 years-ish. Most people won't bother putting enough hours a day into teaching themselves to do something "wronghanded" like your tennis example. The benefit is just not that great, unless it means you'll win the grand slam.
