  1. It's Christmas Night here.

     

    And guess what I did? Opened up the computer and disconnected stuff to access the m.2 slot and set up a second SSD with Linux Mint, to have it dual-boot cleanly.

     

    That's my penitence, so-to-speak. My pint of blood for the PC movement. The yearly attempt to make this shiz work for my needs.

  2. Good! Not that I really needed that bundle. Had most of it already from years ago.

    Sometimes I like to imagine how insanely rich I…

    Indeed bitcoin is the better option. $800-worth of Bitcoin in 2009 would have been over $20,000,000,000 just 1-2 years ago.
  4. Poco X3 Pro NIB for $200 at the start of 2022

    No one has opened this box in 20 years.

    I bet it has a ton of old-ass SATA cables, one backplate for the IO, and likely a baggy of rando' screws n shit for coolers that were last seen ... 20 years ago?

    It's quite surprising that the LTT mods haven't…

    It's a bandwagon and lots of people get on it without looking. Since it's noisy and some people just like the noise they can add to it.

    It's kind of impressive how bad Seagate manages…

    Then stop being friends with people being investigated by the FBI! It's obviously their HDDs will be dead The owners probably degaussed them
  9. I went with an 870 Evo 4TB for $169.99. This will finally rid me of all HDDs within my system, for the first time. It'll serve as a storage + temporary torrent seeder drive.
  10. The LTT community is getting older. Do you know how I know? Because the Hot Deals section doesn't have a topic for Steam Sales. Hasn't had one in several years now.

      As long as @WereCat sticks around to randomly like my dumb status updates it's all good and I refuse to leave!

      It has been normalised. It's no longer a "hot deal" just another sale.

  15. Poco X3 Pro (8/256) got it just over a year ago, for around $240. New in box.

    The saddest thing about getting a car in your 3…

    Not that category of car, and there are no facilities of that type in the country. And besides all that, who in their right mind will stress one's own car?! It's one of the biggest financial investments most adults do and abusing it is utterly foolish.
  17. The saddest thing about getting a car in your 30s is that there aren't many friends left that are willing and able to go out for a few hours anymore.

     

    Like that old French saying about the young, middle-aged, and the old. Well, I'm middle-aged, more of less.

      I'm in my 40's. Trust me you're not middle aged yet.

  18. I replay GTA every 5'ish years. A few other games too. As soon I realize I don't remember it too well. It's tens of hours of enjoyment I can relive and it's marvelous.
  19. I insist you try giving it at least 20 minutes. It's less a game and more a story and a feel.

    It makes you a denizen of the underbelly. An unprincipled tramp. A night-time butterfly of the gaming world.

    Buy a Windows laptop. Bash the Mac with the Windows laptop. Two laptops enter - one laptop leaves. Who run Bartertown? Say. Say loud.
  23. Well, yo' boi got his first car, at the ripe age of 36.

     

    New, from a dealer.

    Dacia Sandero Stepway 2022

     

    And I pledge that I'll use it (her?) for as long as it will work.

    None of that "sell it after 2-3 years" or "don't let it go over 100k and sell it ASAP".
