Maybe. Post your specs. If they're in the ballpark, you can manage as long as you take it slow and don't get too ambitious. There are some computers I know of that are under 500 that are capable of running this kinda software fine, even if not able to do other things like gaming, so if you're ever looking to upgrade for this purpose, it shouldn't be be toooo expensive.

1.75 GB RAM with a 2.2 GHz one core processor, running virgin windows xp alongside a completely worthless ubuntu install I never use.  620 GB of disk space from two hard drives.  Also has two disk drives.  Not bad for a 11 year old computer.

Haha, there isn't any. I've spent the last couple years casually learning about production because it's fun. On various computers, either really shitty laptops, the family computer, or my brother's beast rig. I'll make something someday, when I feel I'm ready, I guess. Til then, there's still so much I haven't learned how to do, or need to memorize.

Well. I've thrown stuff together in private, but haven't bothered to post it. There are already thousands of mediocre musicians on the internet putting stuff out before they know what the hell they're doing because they wanna be famous, whether I'm good or not, I don't wanna get buried by them.

In the event I can get my own computer though, and learn some of the things I've been wanting, as well as legally purchase software, I'll consider it.

I don't know nothin or nothin yet but I plan to use my first concerto as a learning experience.  Hopefully I won't be buried in a large pile of shit because there are relatively few orchestral composers on the internet compared to the large number of vaporwave post-post-post doomcore bedroom meme pop bullshit that /mu/ flagships.  Not that it's all bad.  Guess it will be nice to have a larger slice of the shit pie. 

He's just good at typing overly long posts and "I guess" a lot. Helps him distract himself from tuppers.

I, too, haven't really put any of my own anywhere in particular. There was some stuff on my "Fede's Shit" site a while back, as I'm sure you remember, and another random composition on YouTube. All experimental and quite basic. Maybe I'll get more into it one day.

Clearly written isn't overly long.  Wagner opera is overly long.

Yeah I remember super hot dog land.

If you were to get into it what sort of shit would you make?

Make a fart song.

No.

So when I possibly move out this August, or around that time as my dad needs me to get out asap either way, because he needs a room for my three-year-old brother who still sleeps in the parents' room, I'll be forced to live in the living-room of the new place, cause three other roommates and l drew the short straw.

Anyway, regardless of how much that sucks, I probably won't be able to save for a nice and big desktop cause it's cramped as shit, so I was wondering what people thought of spending ungodly amounts of money on a gaming laptop. I'm on the fence about it because on one hand, holy fuck, expensive for less, but on the other, portability and taking up less space is really convenient. And even if I don't move out, I don't have the room for a desktop here which blows, so I'm really considering it.

I've looked through some boutiques, and for about what I'd want, I'm looking at 2k-2.5k USD, and ohgod it's so much. Is this something I'd regret later on? It really would cover anything I'd realistically need it for, even regarding recording music, but I'm wondering if it would be better to buy something significantly cheaper and just wait until the day I have the space for a desktop (Of which ideal specs would be over a grand less).

All theoretical right now, as I don't even have the job I'm probably going to have until I've put on more muscle (moving furniture, brother does it and is paid very well, all things considered there), but yeah. I mean, I know some of them can be really nice, but I don't know if there's anything I'm not considering that I might facepalm at later. Anyone ever bought a pricey laptop? Thoughts or regrets?

Floor sleeping isn't too bad.  Its good for the back I hear, and it feels good.  Good support and everything.

Just get some "standard" computer and put some more RAM in it.  RAM is pretty cheap, and if you're on the fence about gaming it will help you decide.  But I guess gaming computer is an ambiguous term, so what do you want in this computer?  Hi-def audio?  Multiple HDMI outputs?  2 TB of ROM?

I vote for MOUNTAINFIST THUNDERBEARD, a male nord with a penis.

!!!!UPDATE!!!!
Game is going to happen at 11:00 AM EDT.  Its on Civ 4, through the steam community.  Ill update the post when I get the game set up.

If it doesn't involve the very specific list of modifications I use when playing the game, I don't want to participate. Sorry.

No it won't.  Its the vanilla game.

I have Civ 4 too, and would actually prefer to play that since I'm more familiar with it, but I don't know if anyone else feels the same or can even play online with it anymore.

I don't see where I implied differently and it's not like every single thing you do with a tulpa ever = forcing, either.

I thought that was what forcing is; interaction with a tulpa. 

I don't think you implied anything.  Rather our definitions are different.

These days, I wouldn't say normal talking is forcing even though it basically is narration nor would I say that normally spending time with him is forcing or something. I guess whatever you do that is forming the tulpa is forcing but once your tulpa basically is well developed enough, I wouldn't call the time you spend with them after that forcing.

Do you consider forcing to be what creates a tulpa, not what sustains it?   Aren't they pretty similar actions?
