Self improving is constantly on my head and whenever I play CS:GO or Starcraft 2 I feel extremely guilty because it's time that I could be spending studying or learning something worthy.
Now that I am in college and I am independent, cooking, cleaning and doing house work takes a lot of time. The problem whenever playing videogames is that once I start playing them I usually don't stop until I go to bed. Playing one hour a day or one hour a week seems impossible to me. I have tried unistalling but I usually just install it again in 20 minutes thanks to high speed internet.
How exactly can I find the motivation to say no more and end games in my life, for one and for ever?

Just put away your computer for a while and get a laptop that isn't capable of gaming.

Get a job or start seriously studying a second language. Possibly do both. Very time consuming activities that leave you with no spare time to play games.

Having a hobby isnt a bad thing though as long as youre doing well at uni.

full time cs student, need my computer constantly

What do you need to do that can't be done with a low-modestly specced laptop?
>>
>>18227072
That's a good idea, I like it a lot
However I have several virtual machines installed that I need for some classes and I don't want them to be super slow

Maybe you can just remove your GPU for the time being. VMs mostly just use the CPU, right? Shouldn't be a problem.

Remove my laptop GPU? I am not sure how to do that and if it'd even work without it

Then don't start until an hour or two before you go to bed. Make a checklist of everything you have to do and put it by tour computer and then make sure you have done everything before you start playing games.

man for the god sake, be honest with yourself

CS student, in which year u are?

i'm talking a Computational Physics course (TCS student) and that's the only course i needed a decent GPU for, and for the hardest courses in a typical CS degree it will be Compiler Theory course or Automata Theory, a baked potato will do the jop, and probably the biggest project you will do is making a fully fledged OS, and for all that -except CPh- a baked potato will seal the deal.

I am in my first year and all I do is very very small projects in linux makefiles and sometimes use dev C++ on windows. I need both operating systems and I need them simultaneously, that's why I use the virtual machine. I assigned 4GB ram to my linux VM and it runs quite slowly. The thing is: I want a laptop that is not able to run games (extremely shitty grap. Card) and at the same time has a good processor and a good RAM memory so that whenever I use a virtual machine it doesn't take five years to open some programs. Where can I get such laptop? Do companies even sell that?
