No one believes an anonymous coward! Post with your main account if you want to have a n intelligent discussion. Anyway, your main reason for voting for the other guy is wrong. Trump would be prevented from doing much of anything by the House and Senate. Hillary is the one who could do some damage .... or maybe some good. Thus the question is do you really believe Hillary is going to do more good than harm? Personally, I'd rather have a phony outsider who has a love for his country than a corrupt politician who has repeatedly turned their back on Americans.

You're completely right, automated watering and monitoring has been done before (mostly as a fun arduino project). A better idea would be create a modular system to monitor and water your plants using drip-hoses, sensors, and a webcam connected to an intuitive app/website. In any case, I feel that hydroponics is a much better option for growing a small amount of veggies / greens at home (more easily automated and controlled).

What else would you expect from a slashvertisement?

Building a PC to game with isn't hard and it's not that expensive. I built my PC 3 years ago for ~$1500, and it's still performing very well and I get 144fps on CS:GO. A new mobo+ram+processor+watercooler will probably cost close to 700, but I can still use my monitor, keyboard, mouse, case, and psu. New graphics cards are coming in around 300 bucks, too. If you want to have the best graphics while gaming competitively, then yes, that's expensive. However, most people play with the graphics turned low in order to have higher fps. Also, lowering graphics can also help with seeing an opponent around a corner/hill or through grass/trees better. Physically, assembling a pc is fairly easy provided you are using a mid-tower case (not very cramped, good air-flow), which anyone would for a gaming pc. The screws are easy to use and put in. Also, the screws go from the back of the case to the mobo, so there is no risk of dropping the screwdriver on anything. If you do drop a screwdriver, you're not going to break anything expensive unless you're an idiot and drop it from 10ft and it's a big, heavy screwdriver. The hardest part of assembling my pc was putting in the case-lighting, which I have turned off most of the time anyway.
