I have given some thought lately to learning programming. I am wondering what the best programming language would be for me to learn first. I think it would make more sense to start with a more complex language since starting with an easier language like Python and/or Javascript might lead to...

Do you use a screenshot utility? I have been using Lightshot for a few years. It's definitely an improvement over the way Windows handles screenshots in my opinion, and the option to upload your screenshot instantly and get a URL comes in handy.

What is/was your favorite version of Windows? I will always be partial to Windows XP. I have so many childhood memories involving Windows XP. It still stands out as the most innovative OS from Microsoft in my view.

RE: AMD or Nvidia? I currently have an NVidia GTX 1060. I would love to upgrade to a new AMD GPU, but you have to trade in an arm, a leg, and a kidney for a GPU currently.

RE: HP Laptops I've never had problems with HP. I've owned a few of their laptops, and they've all seemed pretty decent. I would definitely consider buying an HP laptop in the future.

RE: PC Case I'm a huge fan of RGB cases. The last one I bought was a Cougar case with several RGB fans and some lights on the front of the case. It also has a window to show off my RGB components on the inside of the case. ;)

RE: Intel Is going to Lead! I think that AMD has nowhere to go but up. Intel's improvements have been far more incremental. It's definitely possible that Intel could take the lead again, but I don't see it happening overnight.

Does anybody here use Brave Browser? For those who don't know, Brave is a Chromium-based browser that is focused on privacy and security. I have been using it for several months now, and I like it quite a bit more than any other browser on the market currently.

RE: Spillages, Damages & Accidents I just cracked my phone the other day, sadly. I ordered a new one online and got a warranty with it that covers accidental damage for two years. I also got a relatively strong case. I'm hoping that will keep it fairly protected.

RE: Favorite social Media? I guess that if I had to choose one, it would be Twitter. I'm not a huge fan of social media, but Twitter at least makes it relatively simple to view content that actually interests you rather than just sponsored content.

RE: Batteries I prefer peripherals with cords. I like to decrease the input lag as much as humanly possible, and I still find wireless peripherals to be quirky at times. For me, having a cord is the way to go.

RE: What do you do? I usually watch funny videos or music videos. YouTube is my primary source for listening to music. As time goes on, it is harder and harder for me to find things that I enjoy on YouTube. Their algorithm prioritizes what they want you to watch, not what they think will...

RE: Home or theater? I do not like going to the theater. I rarely watch movies, but when I do, I do it at home. Going anywhere where there is likely going to be a crowd is not my cup of tea.

RE: Fun or learning? I do both. I rarely read novels, but I do often read short stories for entertainment and news articles and such to learn. I also do a lot of reading to learn about tech matters.

RE: Get into trouble for reading...? I actually got in trouble for doing homework when I was supposed to be reading. I wasn't trying to avoid reading; I saw several other students doing homework and assumed it was an option. Whoops!
