Potatos and spaghetti don't go well together, it's a metaphor

When you're a programmer, you get a little satisfaction out of writing code that almost no one will ever see. It's like a nice easter egg if/when someone does stumble across it.

On Pbe LCU client it was called that originally. But yeah, I'd play on a http://www.potato.es/wp-content/uploads/potato-slider.png

On a more serious note, is there actually any performance gain from switching to the low spec mode? Tried both and it made no difference.

My PC is made of potatoes and broken dreams. This mode is perfect for me.

I wonder if they have a toaster mode.

Yet the 'potatomode' still feels like it's running Far Cry 4, Battle Field 1 and Forza 3 in the background.

they need one of these for the new client i feel like i could play three games of LOL at the same time with better Fps than the new client by itself.

I don't think this should exist in the first place once we're out of Beta because i shouldn't have to remove parts of the client expierence just because my computer can't handle it and it's not optimized well enough. Hopefully it won't be there afterwards.
