Atm it's anything that doesn't involve work or studying for more advanced IT certs... Been getting hit with overtime on variable hours pretty frequently as of late, so my sleep patterns really don't facilitate a life outside of work and study anymore. ?

 

In better times my non-gaming, non-computer hobbies I had consisted of going to the gym to work out, a bit of weed here and there, and tennis. In university I also dabbled in D&D.

 

Now I don't have the time for any of that, I even have barely enough time to game on my PC which hasn't gotten a lot of use since building it a few months ago. Abstaining completely from the weed because my job involves random drug screening, and quite honestly I don't want to risk falling into that stoner lifestyle as I am "susceptible" to getting addicted to things.

New Build (The Compromise): CPU - i7 9700K @ 5.1Ghz | Mobo - ASRock Z390 Taichi | RAM - 16GB G.SKILL TridentZ RGB 3200CL14 @ 3466 14-14-14-30 1T | GPU - ASUS Strix GTX 1080 TI | Cooler - Corsair h100i Pro | SSDs - 500 GB 960 EVO + 500 GB 850 EVO + 1TB MX300 | Case - Coolermaster H500 | PSU - EVGA 850 P2 | Monitor - LG 32GK850G-B 144hz 1440p | OS - Windows 10 Pro. 

Peripherals - Corsair K70 Lux RGB | Corsair Scimitar RGB | Audio-technica ATH M50X + Antlion Modmic 5 |

CPU/GPU history: Athlon 6000+/HD4850 > i7 2600k/GTX 580, R9 390, R9 Fury > i7 7700K/R9 Fury, 1080TI > Ryzen 1700/1080TI > i7 9700K/1080TI.

Other tech: Surface Pro 4 (i5/128GB), Lenovo Ideapad Y510P w/ Kali, OnePlus 6T (8G/128G), PS4 Slim.

. I also like fishkeeping, orgies and raising birds but I travel too often to have commitments.

 

This went from 0 to 100 and back to 0 way to fast :P

Fetish photography (I make money this way, to fund my other hobbies)

Were you the one doing the LTT themed one? Looking forward to whatever that brings tbh

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

My hobbies outside of computers and computer nodding are:

 

Motorbikes - got my A2 lisence recently and own a 1996 GS500E. Has sport fearings on it which are kinda poorly installed and a bit crushed after I dropped it while changing tires :(

Looking forward to when the snow melts and I can start riding it again. Probably going to spend quite a bit of this spring and summer on it, riding is the best feeling ever! 

 

Cars - I enjoy cars a lot, don't like how they destroy the environment and all that though so it's a hard one to really enjoy :/

 

Im the head of the student body council and that is something I deerly enjoy. I never thought I would enjoy it as much as I do. We don't do much and rarely anything grand but there is something that feels so good about getting involved and coming up with things and solutions. It is simply amazing. 

 

Making things is kinda fun, I'm pretty bad at it but it's enjoyable and if you never try you never learn :D

 

Theatre has always been present in my life too and I really enjoy it. Both of my parents were involved in it, mom being a freelance actress and dad being a producer for the regional theatre before he retired. 

 

Used to shoot air guns a bit but never enjoyed it enough to keep going. And fishing is something I do and I'm involved in but don't really enjoy much tbh. 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Gaming is really my only hobby. I enjoy working on computers but I don't think I do it enough to call it a hobby. It isn't that I don't enjoy other things but I just don't have anything else I devote enough time toward to call a hobby.

Electric skateboarding. I built my own board and it costs more than my computer. Sure is fun going 30+ miles an hour on a skateboard I made myself though.

Outside..

 

Is that an answer? Running, Rock Climbing, Snorkeling, Paddle-boarding, Camping, etc. If it is an outdoor activity I probably like it lol. 

 

Reading/Traveling/Cooking are also really big things for me as well.
