    Jeric Q&A

    in Poniverse AMA's

    Hiya Jeric :D

    Got a few bunched up words ending with a question mark here for you.

     

    * What's the best part of being an Admin?  :love:

    * Who's best pony? ;)

    * What's the best thing that you've seen in the fandom since you joined? :)

    * Quick! PC or Mac? ^_^

    * Best Console game?  :muffins:

     

     

    (I might throw some more questions your way later :P)

    Gone Airbourne Q&A

    in Poniverse AMA's

     

     

    That is something I am in the process of researching and wanting to save up for a nicer computer later on as well.

     

    Yeah, researching for dekstop is darn hard. With all the different parts that's going into it in the end XP

     

    Good luck :D

    What are your computer specs?

    in Media Discussion

    Damn it Feld, I was just about to make another post asking people for comp specs >:P

     

    Alright, here's mine. It's a school laptop, the laptops that were distributed for the Year 8s (High School starts @ Yr8 here) in 2014 for the entire state.

     

    V7_V5_Polaris_gray_nontouch-photo-galler

    It looks almost like that, but just imagine it a bit more worn. It's a Acer Aspire V5-473-54204G12tii, but instead of the usual 4GB RAM, the school decided to add another 2GB in as well. And the stats from the website (linked below) =>

     

     

     

    • Core i5-4200U(1.60GHz, 2.60GHz Turbo), 14"HD LED, 4GB-RAM, 120GB-SSD, NO ODD, Intel HD 4400, WiFi-n, Bluetooth, Webcam, USB3.0, Windows 8

     

    And about the CPU, it has 4 Logic Processors, but it's a duo core. I'm a web developer and sometimes I work on art, that means I would need to use up a fair bit of data. But unfortunately, I only have 61GB to work with when I receive the laptop, so most of the work is stored in a very old external Harddrive. In fact, it was even manufactured in the late 90s! (September the 6th, 1998. To be exact. FYI, it's a 300GB Toshiba HDD :P)

     

    But currently, I'm building my first ever desktop using parts from my friends locally (and "internationally". Thanks to the help of one forum member, of which I wouldn't include the name ^_^). So instead of paying $AUD2.5k for this build, I'll be only having to save up $300~400 to get the: screen, storage, PSU and an optical drive.

     

    Still, I feel like this computer is a rip off. Acer gave us these laptops and they knew that it was faulty. My laptop had to get the motherboard replace numerous times, the first time being the last week of school last year. Approximately one year since I first booted the system up. And then, from June ~ August (only last week), I had my computer wiped (reverted to school image) twice, motherboard replaced twice, LCD replaced, computer fan replaced, and the cables inside the PC fixed as well. It has been a hectic two months with this laptop. I've only got it back on Monday this week :)

     

    The school do give you replacement laptops while the original one is getting fixed, hot swaps are awesome :D

    Still, I have used it on and off since June. And just to note, you'll get a hot swap with the same model to the one that you get in your year level. So I my hot swap is a 2014 laptop, not the ones they year 8s get this year. (Which has 400MHz lower CPU speed and even less disk space, 40GB...)

     

    Opps, did I rant about how crap my laptop is again. Sorry :P

     

    All the stats of school laptop here. (The laptop costed a fortune, but it does have the Adobe Master Collection on it :3)

     

    Acer Aspire V5-473-54204G12tii w/ Adobe Master Collection (CS6) costed my mum $1600, plus $300 3-year warranty.

     

    (Also, school internet speeds.... Average speed is either -100Kbps or 350Kbps. Very rarely (for 3 min every week) I would get speeds of 2Mbps. And the school is upgrading the internet infrastructure next year, at the cost of 1 bucking million tax-payer dollars D:)

     

    If you're reading this, I applaud you for staying with me through this rant. Here, just imagine someone catapulting a Acer laptop into the air and then smashing it when it comes back down (I saw the gif on Imgur a few weeks ago, but forgot to bookmark it :|)

    Ever been featured on EQD?

    in Sugarcube Corner

    Well, if getting your name onto the site is a feature. I'll say that I've done it up to 3 or 4 times now. All of them would be relating with big important pony news, or just something that the fandom would be generally interested in.

     

    I think to date, I have sent over 300 or more pieces of new/artwork/videos/etc to EQD. ^^"

     

    And a few meetup pictures for the Night Roundup...

     

    Though I would love to get at least one of my artworks in a Daily Drawfriend ^_^

    PONIES: THE ANTHOLOGY V

    in Sugarcube Corner

    I saw the new one was up last week at some point, by random chance, and the dumbest of luck, so I was actually on my XB1.

    Watched it on a nice big TV, with a steak. Was not disappointed. XD

    ...Almost dropped mah steak. D:

     

    Heh, I almost woke my brother up by laughing so hard while watching this :P

    Are you looking forward to the next one? ^_^
