If it's the sort of file you never need to edit with more stuff, it might be worthwhile putting it in a vpk with other files in a similar boat (surfaceproperties for one, or even just individual cfg modules you'd never edit such as the net quality settings).

I would still install cfgs to the dedicated cfg folder. When the game loads any resource (and it loads tons) it has to manually check every single folder in custom if they have that file. When you have multiple folders in custom, it becomes a substantial hit to loadtime speed, even if the folders are completely empty. And it's especially bad nowadays since the game will reload all materials when you enter a server (at least as of the last time I tested) so you're going to be going through this process hundreds of times every time you enter a map.

That's why it's best to use vpk's wherever possible (only real exception is huds because fonts don't load from within vpk's + customization is easier in a folder) because they don't have this problem, but with cfg's you can ignore the issue entirely and just put them in the cfg folder.

We know that they have been working on reworking mm, and according to that geel post they don't feel ready with what they have been working on, so I think it coming in a later update is a safe bet.

If you're willing to go down a size, there is the magicforce 68 or the v60 available in the UK. Or go up a size and buy a gmmk tkl and get some Gateron Clears on your own.

https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/ is a good bet on finding things as well.

Building yourself is always an option too (and with a kit, much easier than it sounds).
https://mechboards.co.uk/shop/all/75-diy-kit/ is an example of a 75% kit.

Sounds like you already have a pretty good idea about what you (don't) want.

What exactly is it you don't like with your psychology courses, and what were you looking to get out of it? It could be that the specific subject area isn't exactly what you want and something else fits more with your interest, or it could very well just be that the quality of the courses where you're taking it isn't up to par.

When it says "I only purchase keyboards with mechanical switches", does that include Topre? Membrane and mem-chanical aren't things I'd buy, but a Novatouch reboot would be amazing.

Always great to see more companies communicating with us and tf2 people moving up in the world, cheers

I don't think this is necessarily the case. Depending on the people you can do literally nothing productive, or you can motivate eachother to be productive hours past when you'd normally stop. The trick isn't to group up with your close friends or even necessarily the smartest people you know, but with the people who are going to study nonstop. You still write tons of stuff out on paper, but you also get the chance to either explain things (and explaining something is a great way to know it through-and-through) or get it explained to you (so you can get your questions answered immediately, instead of looking around a book for info that may not even make complete sense to you).

I've gotten 95-100% on midterms I thought I was going to fail solely because of solid 10+ hour group study sessions, while smarter people than me actually did fail because they couldn't bring themselves to study on their own for more than an hour or so.

usual location: CS lounge
usual time of day: all day
method: group w/ someone smart
any other things/tips: just fucking power through it dude

(assuming uni/college) If the math department has a lounge (where people actually go), you will almost certainly find someone studying math there or more likely someone who already took the course (it's good to regularly hang out in these types of places in part for this reason). Potentially even the people that mark the assignments and/or tests anyway. You can also organize with some friends from your math class to go to some lounge and study there (it's also good to be friends with the type of people that study hard even when they know most of the material). Group studying can keep you, and them, motivated. And for math in particular, if the textbook / notes / lecture material doesn't make 100% sense to someone, others can help and explain it in another way / give examples that make it make sense.

The lounge again is good for solo study (because you'll likely be able to ask help), but the library is also a good option (because it's likely the most quiet spot to study). Home can be alright as long as you go somewhere you don't usually play games or anything. Whether you should use the textbook, online examples, or video resources would depend entirely on the course material and the quality of each. In any case you should be trying examples and sample problems. The key to either online or video is to keep focused--going on tftv or reddit or wherever will completely kill all your momentum.

For online / video, the majority of undergrad material can be found with a quick google search. While it won't go over very complicated questions, khan academy is my go-to material review and refreshing. The textbooks and previous assignments will usually be the best for practice questions as long as your professor is consistent, even if they don't always do the best job of actually teaching it.

Clean TF2 is an option to get shadowless maps / unlit materials / fullbright without sv_cheats. That said it completely breaks on sv_pure last I checked, so you need to know what servers you're going on before you do that.

We really ought to start using one single hud identification thread

All it takes is adding "wrap" "1" to the label iirc. I can't actually test atm but I believe that's all it takes (and is what the default hud uses in certain places to get wrapped text).

If you have a hobby that can be applied into a major (if you like programming, cs) I'd say that should be the first thing you look at. As a cs major myself, most people I know who enjoyed programming beforehand (even if they didn't do too much) tended to do well in the courses (though some people who never did before also picked it up and liked it, but they were not most).

If you have anything you want to learn on your own, a university course is probably the best way to motivate yourself to do it. That would be another thing to consider, if you're interesting it in, you will not only likely enjoy it but also have an easier time with it than many other people.

In the case of careers, your degree opens doors to some but connections do too, and your degree does not tie you to anything. A surprising amount of people in my courses now are people who've worked in cs-related jobs before, but want to get formal schooling for it (either pushed for by their employer, or because they would be more employable in what they already do). Though connections are arguably harder to build and if you have two choices in major with one having plainly better job prospects, I would consider that one all other things equal.

I've known people who entered university/college with a vague idea what they wanted and ended up loving what they did, but I've known just as many who switched majors after a year because they just didn't like / couldn't do what they first majored in. That said, realize that most other people also have no clue what they're supposed to do, and as much as it can seem like an expectation, don't let it pressure you too much. One thing you'll learn pretty soon is that most people who seem like they've got their shit together are mostly just winging it too.

You can replace the cable
ie http://www.overclock.net/t/1621381/paracord-mice-cable-made-by-ceesa/0_30

It was a plugin. If you had the plugin it'd be easy, but afaik the plugin used for that isn't public.

Change everything that gets animated by hudanimations_mmenu.txt to have MMenu_PlayList_Expand's xpos value by default. Then make all those animations empty so that pressing the expand-menu button doesn't mess it up for you.

I don't think it's anything malicious. Omni is only mentioned for making the tftv / toth huds even though making huds.tf was a far bigger contribution to the community at large, as another example, and I don't think tsc has anything against the hud community. Whatever you got against the guy personally, I'd give tsc the benefit of the doubt that he genuinely wants to make a complete list but just doesn't personally know outside communities.

Saying "this is a circlejerk fuck this" isn't really helping much. No one can argue against "these people also did a lot of great things and are deserving of a nomination" like you did with blackout jon. If you do that and tsc says "nah I don't like hl" then I'd happily swap sides and agree with you, but as someone removed from whatever drama it seems like you just starting shit.
