I am probably overly optimistic about it, it is true. The Hunger Games has been really Hollywoodized (like you said, appearance, but also a lot of the promo for it is pushing the Gale Peeta nonsense that is barely in the books), but I am still very hopeful that kids have been smart enough to see through that (especially because, irony of ironies, THG directly critiques media culture and standards of beauty)

I don't know too much about 3DS recording, it's possible that it's developed a lot since I last looked into it (which was two years ago). But yes, with the Elgato and any capture card you can stream and record.

I've considered this but I worry that like... midway through buying something new & fancy will come out that isn't compatible with the other parts I bought heh.

Well running it through a USB port wouldn't do anything for you considering USB is pretty limited, speed-wise. Computers can have multiple CPUs, though, but it's rarely seen outside of servers. To be honest it's just not really necessary for home users, especially considering the speeds you can reach with multi-core, overclocked processors these days.

Your laptop should be alright, mine overheats when I record sometimes but I solved that by just buying a cooling pad.

The 3DS is very difficult to capture off of. @Mixt may be able to provide you more info, but a standard capture card sadly won't do it. The Elgato can capture off the PS2 if you use component outputs, or if you buy an additional $10 cable.

You can do both with XSplit.

It cannot be done via CSS. I've done it before for other sites. There's no need to trouble yourself with this for KHV, especially because, frankly, I don't plan on rearranging them.

Only thing stopping me is that I have more important things to spend my money on haha

I know how to move tabs but I don't think it's necessary. Profile comments are far more important.

Using an alt hover would be just as if not more confusing IMO. I browse on my phone a lot and I have no problem checking profiles. Your two display suggestions would still force mobile users onto profiles as well (post info doesn't display on responsive and you can't hover over usernames). Honestly I think that this is merely a consequence of changing your name too often: people will confuse you. It's something people should keep in mind; it doesn't bother most people I don't think but it shouldn't come as a surprise.

I think it would get very confusing if we had two username fields displaying in posts. There's already your current username and the past usernames field that displays in your profile, that seems sufficient to me.

It's likely a thread you have posted in was moved or deleted.

Oh yeah, like I said it definitely isn't a fair thing to do, I just felt I should explain the other side of it.

When people confront me thinking there's a problem my first reaction is, often, to lie and say it's nothing. Part of it is just the environment, the atmosphere. Opening up is difficult for those who are more reserved, so if they're going to do it, they want it to be on their own terms. In those situations I often prefer to write my feelings and thoughts, it's frightening and difficult for me to vocalize them. Which I suppose it is for everyone, but maybe some more than others.

I believe deeply in honestly and I don't like that I do this, but I also know it's a deficiency of mine and try to work against it. Some people just need time to come around and need to be allowed to not only have that time, but express themselves in whatever way is most comfortable for themselves. I'm not excusing being dishonest or stringing someone along though, at a certain point it does become a crap thing to do. And it's different amongst people. I don't think I'm awful person (most days at least heh), what I need most out of people is patience while I sort out my head and try to make decisions. And that's rough to deal with and I know it's a ****** thing to do, and I try to work against that tendency of mine. Other people intentionally hurt others and I'll never really understand why. I guess the problem is deciphering when someone is just ****ing with you and when they're facing some kind of personal tendency or deficiency. Even if it is the latter, though, I understand it's difficult to have patience for those who do nothing to try and mitigate it.

It sounds to me like it might be time to burn that bridge. There's that whole fool me once / fool me twice saying which is a bit silly but it's applicable in this situation -- you gave it a go once and it didn't work out, that's fine, but on the second time around she did not conduct herself very maturely, shall we say. It doesn't seem like you have much compelling reason to get back with her besides that you once dated for a month and that she wants to get back together.

This is not true at all. We come into physical contact with other human beings way more often than you might think. Maybe I'm just hyperaware of it because I'm a bit squicky about germs, or because I work in food service (where your hands must be clean at all times), but consider every time you hand a cashier money, every time your hand brushes someone else's when you're walking in a crowd, that kind of thing... also consider more passive contact, like touching a surface with someone else's blood. Menstrual blood can easily leak through your clothing and onto other surfaces. Medical physicians are not the only ones who stand to risk from people leaking bodily fluids all over the place.

I don't think this is necessarily true. Or, well, it is maybe true, but I feel it's a bit misrepresented here. Some people might need time to sort out their thoughts and decide what they want to do. As you said, oftentimes this situation can be caused by something on their end rather than yours (like some kind of personal problem), which some hope they may be able to resolve and therefore continue the relationship. Other times you just need time to figure out why you're no longer happy with the other person, whether it's something you can work out or if it's just incompatibility. Sometimes it takes time just to find the words.

It's definitely frustrating for the other person to put up with this and I'm not saying it's right or fair or anything like that... but it's something I definitely do so I feel the need to defend it heh.

Signed, an indecisive person

I'd expect it to be on-par, visually, with FFXIII and FFXV. Of course, the Kingdom Hearts series has a very different style from these two games, so there will be some variation, but both are gorgeous games. There is still a noticeable difference between the FMVs and the real-time cutscenes in FFXIII (dunno about FFXV yet obviously), but it's not too big. Considering KH3 will be on the PS4, I'd expect it to be even more negligible.

Levels sound good. Only thing I would recommend is moving away from the mic a few inches; when you stay too close, your breath is often picked up and creates a strange noise. Most people stay too close naturally.

Try it with and without and see what happens. It will vary from mic to mic.
