How long do you run your console in the heat before giving it a break?

I was talking about reading for fun, but yeah, my studies were probably affected too.

Yeah - it's definitely going to get in the way but the most important thing is that you took care of it.

Now I want my IQ retested.  The state of Virginia says I have a 97 IQ.  I know I have a higher IQ than that.

Is it going to cost anything to retest it for you? If not, then you should get on with it and see the results again.

I don't know what it will cost or if there's a way to test it for free.  I test it online sometimes and come out with a 130 IQ every time, so that might be crap.

Personally, I don't really trust all those online test trash because in most cases, they are not reliable.

Well at any rate, I'm smarter than having a 97 IQ.

You can only be 100% certain of it once you get the new test done. 

[Family sedan]

Yeah, but I don't trust my past result because I was distracted by someone screaming all throughout the test.

Wait what!! How can they allow an IQ test go on in such a horrible environment? That's unheard-of.

Well they kept threatening to toss the woman, I forget if it happened though.  I think this was way back in 2008.

I don't tend to play for a long time in one sitting so this is not a huge issue for me to worry about really. At most, I play for around 1-1.5 hours and then go do something else. Plus, the temperatures don't really get that high in the UK anyway.

I do remember it seemed pretty hot on my summer London trip of 1999.

Exactly. It's most cold ❄ up there like it's freezing. Most people who don't have much spare time for gaming can't manage long hours.

Once it's summer season, there is always a possibility of having hot weather once in a while.

In Virginia, so many people work two or more jobs, I don't see how anyone has time for much gaming.
