Well it’s
been a bit of time since I really sat down to write something, mostly because I
haven’t; felt like I really had anything worth saying on the blog, but a good
friend of mine in Chrissy Williams asked about it today and since it is her
bloody birthday after all I guess I can muster enough motivation to put at
least one post together.
So what
to talk about? This is kind of the problem eh? I usually want to write about
just one thing but I suppose writing on several things isn’t that bad right?
So let’s
start here. This is the going to be the computer I build later this summer. It`s almost entirely based on this build. I excited to build it. There were a couple of parts I thought about changing up, but ultimately this would be the best bang for my buck. I
like my laptop and all, but let’s get serious; you need a desktop to get the
performance I want without paying like $2500 or so. This build is about $1000
and should be able to play any game I want and record/stream it with at least
passable quality. So yeah, building a
computer like this is like way way way worth it because I’ll save hundreds of
dollars that would have had to be spent on a pre-made computer. The only real
downside to this is that when it’s done, everyone that I’m related to will
think I’m some sort of expert that can fix any of their computer problems for
them. Which might be true, but only because I know how to use this site.
Quick
note on my thoughts about Yeezus and Magna Carta Holy Grail. Yeezus not that
good. Magna Carta quite an enjoyable listen. It seems to me that Kayne feels
like he still needs to prove himself, which he totally doesn’t. Jay-Z though
just makes stuff he likes and it sounds like that. Thus fun to listen to. Magna
Carta is not a very deep album in all honesty, buts I like listening to it. Don’t
take these criticisms to seriously though, cause you know. I’m not really
qualified in any way. (Pseudo-intellectualism at its finest!)
As a
final note let’s just briefly mention that the United States government
recently recognized players of the League of Legends Championship Series as
professional athletes with the same visa privileges as players of the NFL, NBA,
NHL and other organizations. This is huge. It means that E-sports is really
here to stay. Huge numbers at the Evolution championships this weekend are also
another great sign for the community. All in all, I’m super excited for this
fall so I can watch The International Three (Dota 2) Season 3 Worlds (League of
Legends) and WCS finals at Blizzcon (SC2) Gonna be a huge time for E-sports
this fall. One can only hope to see my boys Dignitas make it to Worlds for
League. If your intrested in reading more about the whole League players getting recognized as pro athletes you can read the article here.
