I'm fairly certain I'm .06 points from bumping up one of my letter grades in a class and the class is done with meeting for the semester. I've never felt so angry and disappointed at the same time before

I'm also incredibly conflicted on some instructions that have been given for a paper that I need to write. The syllabus says to use APA format (double spaced, 12 point font), but also says to use 11 point font. And what's even better: we haven't been informed whether or not we need to submit it online or bring a hard copy to lecture tomorrow, so that's just a fantastic thing that I'm having to deal with

I also look like a homeless person that hasn't shaved or gotten a sound nights sleep in a few weeks and haven't bothered to set time aside to shave and take care of myself. Meanwhile deadlines and opportunities for things are passing by and I'm not able to find the time or energy to do things that I want to do.

I hate that I get demotivated so easily, if that's a word. Sometimes when I'm in a groove of productivity there's almost nothing that can stop me from getting something done, but after that it's just like everything stops. No wind in the sails, no gas in the tank, nothing.

I've been this way since high school with schoolwork and I don't know how to get myself out of this rut that I keep falling back into. I'll have one week where I'm staying on top of everything, reading my textbook for class in advance, and getting assignments done well before their due dates. Then after it just seems like there's nothing that I want to do more than be on the other side of the planet from my studies and responsibilities. I'll sleep, or play TF2, or just do something not productive and let things pile up until the last minute, leaving me at crossroads like where I am now with writing this where I just want to go to bed but I know that I can't because I need to finish something, leading to me just procrastinating more and losing sleep for it.

It's not uncommon for me to want to just get up and leave all that I've done so far with schooling behind (I'm in my 3rd year currently) and just start over, but I know that I can't. I keep being told that I'm so close to finishing but I always feel like I'm so far away from "the finish line", which nowadays doesn't even feel that satisfying to cross anymore. I can't just throw away my parents' money to go off and chase some pipe dream that I have for myself which I haven't even started towards. I know that's incredibly selfish and would only make me feel even worse about myself.

I want to have some sort of a career in esports, but I feel like if I were to take on another responsibility that I'd end up biting off more than I can chew, which would end up causing everything in my life to be thrown completely out of balance, forcing me to start far back at square one, which is a massive fear of mine because I know that something that takes years to build up can be destroyed in seconds. And through the passing of many of dear family members, I've come to understand that time is one of the most valuable resources that we have, and we truly don't know how much time we have left in this world.

Sorry about the length or if it wasn't truly venting, but this was something I just needed to get off of my chest because it seems to be getting harder and harder to find a reason to keep going forward. My best IRL friend went abroad to study in Hong Kong and he's basically the only person that I actively talk to outside of my immediate family and online friends, which very few of them I talk to on a regular basis to begin with. My life isn't exactly in shambles, but I've definitely seen better days.

Edit: If I also make another post in this thread upset at myself for not studying sooner it's because I have what are essentially 3 finals in the next 48 hours and a lot of work that's not completed and I'm really bad sometimes at taking care of myself

Happy Birthday Jarrett!!

I wonder if you're going to remaster/remake any of your older ones that had frame drops in some clips (MGEMike, jukebox just to name a few) in the future. I know there are some airshots from Mike's later years that would definitely be legacy video worthy

Edit: Off of the top of my head here are a few that have noticeable framerate drops in them that might want to be redone. I probably missed some and will edit this later if I find more

• MGEMike/MikeyA
  
• harbleu
  
• tek
  
• zebbosai
  
• TLR
  
• numlocked
  
• Platinum (there were a few transitions that had wierd stutters, might not be major enough for a rework but thought I'd point it out)
  
• A_Seagull
  
• lansky

I feel like role queue and (maybe) role ranks could be a solution to this

Why not have the teams vote between mumble, discord, and in game voice when getting matched together? and if there's a split decision defaulting to the in game voice codec can always work. All that's needed at that point is a message to have everyone's voice_enable value set to 1

Also how big would the theoretical beam be? Seems to me that since tf2's characters hitboxes are literally boxes there has to be some sort of rework with the hitboxes right? Or am I just thinking about this too much?

I believe bear has a wireless g403 so he's probably the one you want to ask about that

As someone who has an ec1-a and switched from a deathadder, the shape is amazing. I got the white edition not expecting there to be an ec B series at the time but I still love it and don't plan on changing anytime soon

Any deals on graphics cards? I'm mainly looking for a GTX 1070/1060 and haven't been able to find anything that good but have found this RX 580

My dad showed me these monitors and was wondering if they'd be a good choice for gaming. The first one is 120 hz (or that's what is listed in its specs) and the other is 75 hz but both have a 5 ms gray to gray time. Regardless of price, are these worth buying? Mainly wondering for the higher refresh rate panel
