@Cole, I don't really get in to the whole celebrity thing but I would need to answer Neil Patrick Harris, I respect how talented he is, its one thing to be a movie/tv show actor, you can always mess up (even if it annoys the director) and it won't (really) matter, then you have play actors who need to nail it every time they are in front of people, then you have musical play actors, they need to be able to do the play actor thing and be able to sing and dance at the same time and always hit the notes. NPH has done it all. He also some how survived as a child star, so extra props there.
@QueenZelda: If you mean physical looks either a traditional case (i.e. no window panels) and no RGB, or just place it on a test bench style case because its easier to move stuff around in/swap out.
If you mean spec wise I will just leave you with this:

Do you think you'll ever try playing anything on consoles?

I have in the past I use to have a PS1 and PS2 as a teen, oh and a Wii.
Near the end of my last relationship oh so many years ago she had a PS3 and I bought my self a copy of RDR....that I never claimed/got back when we broke up....
If there is a game compelling enough for me to drop the money for a console sure, or if any future SO I may (or may not) have has one yes, assuming split screen co op is still a thing (so Hello Nintedo?)
RE: I'm the old man who rants! Ask me stuff I guess - queenzelda - Aug 29th, 2018
Actually split screen is still a thing. More so with the Nintendo Switch cause they want everybudy to enjoy the experience.
Are you on steam? :p

That's why I said "Hello nintendo".
The major issue PCMR (at lease at one time) took issue with consoles other then holding back PC graphics for a period of time when we had that really long console generation, was how the PS and XBOX wanted to be more then just gaming along with removing split screen gaming, which never really worked that well in PC gaming...at lease when ever I tried it.
I am

Could you add me to your steam; my steam name is the same I use here: queenzelda. My avatar is that of Lightning from FFXIII. :3 Btw... xD My mom's pc started to work the moment she told it that I was coming over to fix it. I thought that was hilarious myself.
question: Would you rather be famous or successful?
RE: I'm the old man who rants! Ask me stuff I guess - lp0 on fire - Aug 30th, 2018
Added.
That happens a lot in IT. Issue is "Magically" resolved when I get there, often when you get there the user is more aware of their actions so they are more likely to do what they were trying to do "correctly", then what they were doing before.
Since success is defined by the person I would say success.

Would you rather be famous or happy & poor?
RE: I'm the old man who rants! Ask me stuff I guess - lp0 on fire - Aug 30th, 2018
Happy with enough money to not need to worry about bills/food/housing/etc

Does it come with a Eggs Woodhouse or a bloodymary?
But yes I would..
(Other then the cross over episode [which was in Archer], Im surprised Bob's burgers hasn't included any other Archer references. Like maybe some sort of Bloodymarry burger or the like).
RE: I'm the old man who rants! Ask me stuff I guess - queenzelda - Aug 31st, 2018
I saw this chef talk to the actor who voices Bob, while he cooked up a Bobs Burger for him to enjoy. It was great, it's in YouTube if your interested.
Favorite weather app you use constantly?

Here are my daily drivers,
Radarscope (iOS, Android, OSX, Windows 10)
GR2AE - Windows
GREarth - Windows
Three three above are meant for weather enthuses and professionals GR2AE and Radarscope just delivers the radar images straight from the source (which look often a lot different then what commercial sources like The Weather Channel offer).
GREarth gives you more information and an over all picture but lacks the details of Radarscope and GR2AE.
https://weather.gov - for local forecasts and information, I find it way more reliable then commercial sources, especially if you are not near a major city. If the National Weather Service (or its "departments") are hyping an event up shit most likely is going to go down (i.e. Moore and El Reno 2013). They are not driven by profit from hype unlike TWC
https://spc.noaa.gov - The Storm Prediction Center they offer up a nice map of the chances of severe storms / hail / wind / tornadoes. At lease for me it helps me know what I should be looking out for. Also a great source of infomration for weather nerds about what is going on in terms of how likely things are going to happen if you read their text products.

Lets go to the local duck pond and see what they say.

The amount of pseudoscience and pseudo-medicine peddled by him and his guests and shows like it, it does way more harm then good.

Imagine if The Chew or Gordon Ramsey said "Oh hey you can safely prepare fugu fish too! It doesn't take an expert sushi chef!" This is the equivalent of "advice" they give while using their position of authority as Medical Doctors (or at lease presented as such) to say "Oh hey this thing which defies the laws of physics, chemistry, and logic tots work fam!"
