    I was curious when the first Automatic transmission was created, so I googled it and wow. The first Auto transmission was created in 1940, I thought Auto was created decades after that.

    Todays room temperature, a more tolerable 25C. Humidity unknown, I don't have an actual sensor for that and had to pull up climate data for london yesterday. May have to order some humidity sensors next time I do some electronics shopping

    Did anyone in the UK have a thunderstorm near them last night?
    In Kent where I live the Thunder and Lightning was amazing.

    Yep same here.
    I also woke up at around 5AM when the storm was most probably at the climax.

    your humidity is usually lower though plus you guys are used to it. This is a heatwave for us and with a higher humidity you also tend to feel the heat a little more.

    It's pretty comfortable for me right now. My window fan says 76F which sounds about right.

    In other news, I now have enough money for a FX-8320 :D I'm gonna be ordering a new one direct from Amazon for $160 since I have $65 on my amazon account. I was gonna get a used one on Amazon for an amazing $100 but someone took it right before I ordered it. Ah well. I just need the $50 I made from mowing today put into my bank account.

    I also made the front page of Imgur for the first time today! Today is a good day for me. (http://imgur.com/gallery/5twGxI2)

    Welp, I ordered it. Managed to get free one day shipping which is AWESOME. Seriously, Amazon customer support rules. Hopefully it comes tomorrow.

    I'm backing up my gamesaves and stuff. Hopefully copying my entire Steam folder works. Last time I reinstalled Windows I got yelled at for going over our data limit of 250GB. I'm copying it all to my dad's external 1TB drive. I'm still not sure whether I should try to get Windows 8.1 or go back to Windows 7. Any thoughts on this? (Currently on Windows 8. Updating to 8.1 did not go well at all.)

    personally, i suggest staying with windows 8/8.1 (the same os, microsoft just renamed it to get people who don't like to download actual updates to download it) as youll have better chance of anything you copy over from your dads 1tb drive working correctly, and windows 8/8.1 tends to have better performance in most things then 7(including boot time, yes it's technically cheating the way it does it, but it IS faster), of course, don't forget to think about what you like, it really boils down to your preferences :p

    I never have. I just ride comments and make posts that get around 20-50 upvotes at a time. My record was 280 I think. :p It's funny that I saw that though, I didn't look at the username. Dalek had an account but deleted it.

    EDIT: I also remember your top 3 comments. (I go on imgur too often) Are you seriously deaf? I don't know if I trust you. :rolleyes:

    Yeah, Dalek deleted his. He made a new one but I completely forget his username on it. And yeah, I have two Cochlear implants.
