“This is not the greatest topic in the world… this is just a tribute”

Solid plan dude!! You can do it. Decided to do the same, but seeing as we’ve been pretty much self-isolating since last week, I quit on Sunday morning already.

I’ve been wanting to give up for a while now, and the forced isolation seemed like the perfect opportunity to do it. I cold-turkeyed a 20 a day, 35 year habit. Lots of fluids, maybe a multi-vitamin booster too.

These first 3 days have been fekkin’ tough, especially with all the added stress of the looming lockdown, and moving my chemo immune system compromised mother-in-law in with us. Even so, I haven’t lost my rag with anyone so far, and don’t have any dead bodies that need hiding, yet. I reckon if I can get through week 1 I’ll be okay.

This is solid dude well done. I did quit for a few months but stress and work stress was just too much so ended up smoking again.

But since I met Anneli she asked me to stop. Not for her but for my health seeing that I’m prone to injuries and stuff.

I was so happy to receive my keyboard yesterday around 2pm. Otherwise, I’d likely have had to wait 3 weeks or more to get my hands on it.

Also - I’m calling my keyboard MGK (Machine Gun Keyboard).

Looking forward to it…

My annoying, talkative voice will likely overpower any clank you may or may not hear.

Day 6771 of the Apocalypse:

Just over 24 hours left until the lockdown. Good opportunity to save money on petrol. Put that into food instead. Gotta ration the food, and pray the power stays on enough to keep it edible. Blood seems to be seeping through the gauze. Need to ration that too. Should be fine on bandages, providing no one else gets hurt. Supplies should still be available if needed, for now. We’ll have to wait and see how the situation pans out.

Morning you sexy fucks :mechanical_arm:

So there a possibility that I might get an RX 480 8gb. My friend got one yesterday but according to him his mobo doesn’t put enough power out to it. So he’s going to bring his gpu over to mine to check if it runs fine on my rig and then I’ll swap him my 460 4gb

That’d be a pretty sweet trade! And if he’s not happy and wants to switch back, you might get the 480 for at least 3 weeks :wink:

Well he said it’s not performing for him do hopefully the 460 perform for him

Edit so he’s saying the core clock keeps dropping on his system so that’s why he wants to test it on mine and see if it does the same

Morning y’all.

Sorry for the late reply, @Entity. It turns out that fighting panic, hoaxes, and misinformation is more than a full-time job.

We are home safely, thank you. Still doing a bit of driving these last few days, and we may continue in the lockdown as an essential service to monitor the status of the network, but we will ensure that we’re safe and hygienic whenever we travel.

How are you doing? Everything in place at work? Can you work remotely?

And I was going to lower it as a means of getting it sold, but I had many willing buyers… So it worked out.
