Digitec Galaxus which is Switzerlands biggest Online Shop has also expanded to Italy among other European Countries:

As long as your total is at least 50 Bucks in value shipping will be free.

 

They're great, I buy all of my Tech and other things there.

Minecraft Java Edition

The best is when you get paid lots for doing really simple Stuff you don't even have to look up:

Oh lmao, LMG can't catch a break from doing f*ck ups it seems. This one is pretty bad too.

 

If you can't stop yourself from making way too inappropriate Sex Jokes then just stop making them altogether. You'll just end up looking way less professional then you already are and piss off your audience even more.

 

Maybe get inspired by the Hardware News Episodes from GN. They're very well made, straight to the point, no annoying Background Music and if there are Jokes then Steve presents them in a tasteful and relatable way. Without making it seem inappropriate.

Heck yeah, good for them.

Also OnePlus was good until they raised their prices, and made their whole line-up kinda useless.
imho

Yeah everything which came after the OnePlus 6 was just weird and so overpriced. I liked my OP3T and OP5T. OnePlus once was the cool and really affordable phone Maker. Now they're just like their Competitors who they once swore to destroy by being more affordable.

Yes, it's optional.

Do I require the Cash Strap Plate? or is that an optional thing? Because the leather cash strap will probably work. Im just trying not to gouge the screen of my phone as I dont have a screen protector on it.

All 3 add ons for holding Cash are used independently of each other. So you can either install the Money clip, the Plastic Cash Strap or the Leather Cash Strap. Or if you decide that you don't want an add on to hold Cash, you can run your Ride Wallet bare without any attachments as well.

I have the Cash clip on my Ridge Wallet and it's great even when you've got a lot of Bank Notes in there. Why would you want to carry your Phone and Wallet in the same Pocket ? The Ridge Wallet is gonna scratch up your iPhone good for sure. I have the Ridge Wallet, Keys and Swiss Army pocket knife in my front left pants pocket and phone is front right pocket with nothing else in it.

 

As for the money straps they have the standard one which you can get with every Ridge Wallet as a default which is just made out of plastic and now they also have two new fancy ones made from Leather: https://ridge.com/products/leather-cash-strap?variant=40381217996874

My inner dumbass really wants to give it an i7 6700, 32GB of RAM (anything higher than 2400 is overkill, but it'll probably get 2666), and a 512GB MP33. Just for the memes.

Do it. I just love Mini PCs who's Power Brick is basically the same size as the Chassis itself but the thing has a Socketed CPU.

Alright man thanks for the opinion but what do you think about the disconnection vulnerability of the usb? 

Why would you use USB to connect one of the HDDs to your PC ? If you want to use both of them just hook them up with Sata.

should i swap the hardrive and use a laptop one instead since it runs faster and has faster RPM

Yeah that would be an improvement.

oof, you don't have an SSD ? Sata 3 SSDs are dirt cheap nowadays, that's a no brainer Upgrade you should definitely do right away.

I hope that who ever did that will have to pay for the Smart Card and will also be fined a good amount. Destruction of Government property, what an Idiot.

 

This is the same type of User who would take a Hammer to their USB Wireless receiver from a Peripheral which is plugged into their Notebook for that flush look.

inb4 they wanna get on the Hype Train of adding some shitty "AI" assistant to your Browser. Welp, I hope I'll be able to disable that BS once it gets added. I guess I gotta look into Tor again and see how fast and good it is nowadays. Might as well just switch to Tor once Firefox becomes contaminated with "AI" BS as well.

Well it's been a long time since I showed off my setup. Never showed my current setup properly. Now I would say that I have one of the more special setups:

 

First the PC, originally built in fall of 2021 and so far I have upgraded the CPU from the 5800X to the 5800X3D as well as added the Noctua Fan Hub and the 4 Pin PWM extension Cables for the Noctua Fans. Will then also Upgrade the GPU from the RTX 3060 to the Sapphire Radeon RX 7900 XTX Pulse once I have more money again. Once I do that I'll also get two more 8 Pin PCIe Custom Cables from CableMod in my color scheme along side a Custom length Sata Power Cable for the Noctua Fan Hub:

 

Specs:

 

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D

 

Asus ROG Crosshair 8 Impact

 

Kingston Fury Renegade 64GB (2x32GB) 3200MHz DDR4

 

Palit Geforce RTX 3060 Dual 12 GB with the OG GA106-300 die

 

Fractal ARC Mini R2 digitec Edition

 

Samsung 980 Pro PCIe 4.0 2TB M.2 SSD and Sabrent Rocket PCIe 4.0 4TB M.2 SSD

 

Seasonic Prime 1000 PX 80+ Platinum and Custom CableMod Cables

 

Noctua NH-U12S in Chromax.Black, 5x NF-A12x15 PWM Fans in Chromax.Black, NA-FH1 Fan Hub and 4x NA-SEC3 60cm extension Cables. NT-H2 as the Thermal paste.

 

Pop OS

 

My Desk setup:

 

Sitag height adjustable Desk from 64 to 129cm. Desk Surface is 180 x 90 cm. (Bought used)

 

Herman Miller Aeron Chair. (Bought used)

 

Foot rest I built myself in High School in Arts & Crafts

 

Nice heavy duty Drawer which is literally full of Tech

 

GamersNexus Volt ModMat, signed by Steve.

 

Dyson Pure Cool Me

 

Xiaomi LED Desk Lamp

 

Some cheap digital Thermometer

 

Cable Box (I have 5 of these, 4 are in use in my room lol)

 

Simple TP-link 8 port unmanaged Gigabit Switch. I have 3 of them, one is in the TV Cabinet and the other is in my Nightstand.

 

3m USB C 3.2 Cable and 3m USB 3.0 type A extension Cable with a simple Icy Box USB Hub plugged into it going down to my Tower.

 

The Tower setup on the floor:

 

Coming down from the top side of the Desk are 4 Cables: Power, Ethernet, USB C and USB A extension Cables:

 

On the front of the Tower I have two more of the 3m USB 3.0 type A extension Cables managed together with LTT Cable ties for the Cable of my Roccat Sova Keyboard because the Cable wouldn't otherwise reach from my Bed to the Tower:

 

Everything nicely Cable managed:

 

The 5m HDMI 2.1 Cable from Club3D is running along the Wall with Ethernet behind the Fridge up into my TV:

 

Getting a Fridge for my room has been one of the best things I've ever done:

It's a 110L Kibernetik without a freezer for those wondering.

 

Also plugged into the TV via HDMI are the Steamdeck via the Steamdeck Dock and the Raspberry Pi 4:

 

The TV is the LG OLED55CX (55", 4K, OLED, 120Hz):

 

This is still the single most expensive piece of Tech I own which I bought myself. My E-Bike was technically more expensive but my parents bought it for me so I don't count that. Also once you go OLED you never go back.

 

Inside the TV Cabinet where my Steamdeck lives on top of the Steamdeck Dock:

 

It's the OG LCD "64 GB" Deck which was upgraded to the "512 GB" LCD Screen. It has Skin, Screen protector, Stick Grips and the Killswitch Case with the Dock accessories from dbrand. I also have 5 1TB Lexar Play Micro SD Cards for it with my whole Steam Library on them.

 

Also in here we have my Printer, another Switch and behind the Deck is the Pi 4. On the below level on the right is also my "charging Station" with a Pine 64 Desktop Power Supply and the proprietary chargers for all the things.

 

On the left of the TV Cabinet which btw I've also built myself in Highschool:

 

Cables everywhere you look but they're all neatly managed.

 

My peripherals of choice:

 

Roccat Sova Keyboard (so glad that I was able to find & buy this back in 2021), Logitech MX Master 3 aka IMO the best Multi Media Mouse there is and I also Game with it and it's great, Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones with the ModMic Magnetic attachment on the left Ear Cup

 

My Bed setup:

 

Wired into my Nightstand are Ethernet and a Valve USB C 45 W Power Supply (I have 4 of those, they're amazing lol)

 

On the Nightstand I always have: TV Remote, GamersNexus Coster (I have both Coster packs) ontop of which is my favorite type of Ice Tea which is this Peach Ice Tea, my Yubico Yubikey 5Ci (also have the 5c and the 5 Nano, all are mirrored), Antlion ModMic Wireless (such an amazing Mic) and the thing I took all of these pictures with: My Fairphone 4 (running LineageOS, soon to be the De-Googled Version)

 

And also a big LTT Couchripper Pillow, also have the OG LTT CPU Pillow.

 

And the money shot:

 

I wear T-Shirt and Shorts all year round Inside so that's why the Short Socks lol

 

Out of all the setups I've had over the years this one is definitely the most comfortable.

 

So next up I'll Upgrade the GPU and also the SSDs so that I'll have more Storage and then finish building out my Desk setup by buying a new second Gen QD-OLED Monitor and a good IPS Display as a secondary Vertical Monitor. I already have everything else I'll need to build a proper Desk setup.

 

It's been 3 years now since I've had a Desk setup, before having built the Desktop my Desk setup consisted of my Notebook on a Notebook stand with the Logitech MX Keys Keyboard (which I've since sold) and the MX 3 Mouse on a small Cooler master Mousepad. My Notebook currently just lives in my drawer.

 

If you wanna know what else I have or have owned over the years then click into my Signature and go to my Profile and About Me section to look at that

Needed a new Bedframe as my old one which is over 20 years old was literally falling apart. So bought a decently reviewed Box spring Bed for 270 Bucks:

 

It's called the Roanne from the brand Beliani, my Mattress size is 90 x 200 cm BTW (it's the OG Emma Mattress if anyone is wondering):

 

All the parts:

Building it was super simple and straight forward. It definitively was much less of a pain in the ass than it is to build Ikea Furniture.

 

So out with the old junk:

Yeah I used Duct tape to hold it together temporarily lol

 

And in with the new:

 

 

I also got new Sheets for the Mattress in dark grey but they haven't arrived yet. Tomorrow I'll have to figure out how to best arrange my Tower on the floor lol. Kinda not have enough space in my room to do stuff the easy way so I have to get creative at times.
