That's what I got from the launcher output. This has been an ongoing issue, I remember having it in 1.7.10 before as well. I'm in 1.12.2 now. I've tried adjusting everything else that I could, undoing overclocks, changing allocated memory, I've determined it must be Optifine. I tried changing to a different version 3 times (testing all of the E versions) and that didn't help. Is there some other earlier version for 1.12 I can use to fix this?

EDITED TO ADD: This also isn't an instantaneous crash. I can play the game for anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour before it does this...it depends case by case.
