3 Ways to make your Minecraft faster

1) Download Optifine- Optifine is a program that will make your Minecraft faster. It will also make shaders available on all graphics cards. Download Optifine from here ( choose the version you want ) and run the file. After that, you will need to choose the Optifine profile when you launch Minecraft. Optifine gives you a lot of extra options and it gives you the ability to zoom in.

2)Close all windows that you do not need- I don't think I need to explain this. : )

3) Turn off all particles- Using optifine-Go to video settings in Minecraft, then go to animations. In the animations tab, click the button that says all off. You can also turn of rain and snow in Optifine. (This is good for PvP) To do this, go to the video settings tab,but hen the details tab. There will be an option that says rain and snow: off. Turning graphics to fast and smooth lighting off can also help. Just go to the details tab and turn everything off or to fast.
Without optifine-

Another way to make your Minecraft faster is to upgrade you RAM or allocate more RAM to Minecraft. If you want to know how to do this, please comment. I will do a post about this in the computer section if I get any requests.

If you have any questions about Optifine, please ask. If I get any requests, I can do a post n the features of Optifine

Donald Trump

Today I want to talk about Donald Trump.Some people think he is the best person to vote for but I disagree . Even though he has the highest number of polls, in my opinion, his views are despicable. He has made unruly comments about Mexicans like "They (The immigrants) bring drugs and crime with them. He said that they should not be allowed in the country. He has also insulted women by calling them "fat,ugly,slobs and disgusting animals".

In the presidential debate, Donald Trump said bad things about Rosie O'Donnel. Also, when one of his supporters said that president Obama was a Muslim and not an American, he didn't bother to correct him. .

His motto is " Let's Make America Great Again." Donald Trump's meaning of "Great" is driving out immigrants, being xenophobic and saying bad things about women. This is not right. He has to remember that America was made up of immigrants. I hope this gives you an opinion on Donald Trump. Thanks for reading.Please comment if you have different views and make this discussion interesting!!

Choosing the right computer

Is your computer too old? Need a new one? Then, this is the right guide for you. The first choice you have to make is between a laptop, a desktop and an all-in one computer. A desktop has a better performance/price ratio and is more customizable but it takes up a lot of space (in most cases) and is not portable. A laptop, on the other hand can be easily moved around but it is very hard to upgrade processors and graphics cards on a laptop. An all-in one computer. It usually expensive but mostly offers better performance than a laptop. It is portable but usually has the monitor and keyboard separate.

Desktops

Desktops are very easy to customize so I would recommend building one. There are many websites to do this. They will let you pick all the parts you want and give you a total price for all the parts.This way you can build a desktop according to your budget. You can also order the parts too on some websites. Websites like pcpartpicker.com also show desktops that other people have built.
