What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

Gaming, lightroom, development.

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

I'd like to spend $2000. But if justified, I can go up to $2500.

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

When the i7 9700k and RTX 2080 comes out. I already have the RTX 2080 on preorder ($749) scheduled for 9/24 delivery.

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

Tower.

My parents are hard working middle class people. But they've made bad investment decisions in the past. I won't get into the whole story, but they acquired a significant amount of capital losses a few years ago. It's enough so that they realistically have no hope of using it all up in their lifetime (from gains and -3k loss tax deduction).

In the meantime, I have been making ok gains in the market, mostly by following the index. If I sell all now, I would have to pay a large amount of taxes from capital gains. Is there any way I can utilize my parents capital losses to offset my gains?

My purposed solution: I was thinking of 'gifting' the stocks to my parents and let my parents sell them.

My eyes aren't what they used to be and the UI elements are too darn small on 27" 1440p screen. I saw there was a UI scale option but it was grayed out, saying that it's only available for certain resolutions. Anyone know a way to make the text/UI bigger?

Even changing the %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\AppOptions.txt UIUpscale manually doesn't seem to work.. =/

I would like to preface by saying I'm really glad I read r/TIFU a few weeks ago. Otherwise I would have never discovered LiS.

Indie artistic games are not typically my type and I have only liked one other indie story based game in the past: To the Moon. I also ruin experiences for myself by setting high expectations based on reviews and subsequently being let down if the experience wasn't absolutely amazing.

The first part of LiS Episode 1 didn't immediately jump out at me. The hallway intro scene was cool, but high school drama isn't my thing. The central mystery surrounding the storm and Ra
