And you're unknowingly showing me another reason to find a new, better paying job. So I can afford more records and music in general. 

While I would always advice getting a better paying job, I don't vinyl records should be the reason d'jure. 

Buy records is a never ending addiction that will always consume whatever income you have.

There's no difference between rich and poor. We all go to bed hungry.

 

But really, the records I buy aren't that expensive. 

The most expensive record in that bunch was £15. 

When you move into more underground artists and distros the prices are usually quite low. 

For example, I just bought two records from Merchants of Death (which is sketchy as fuck) for €10 each.

Well, there's many reasons for searching for a better paying job, and especially one with more hours too. But, I also like to think of the leisure side of things too, and buying music is one of the things high on my personal lists. 

As for finding cheap records, anything above £10 at this moment in time is expensive for me, and to find records at that price or lower, I do have to travel, which negates the low costs.

I know people change hobbies sometimes but it always makes me sad when someone says they almost never game anymore...

happened to me a year ago. Today I sold the (almost) last part of my pc. 

Video games feels like a grind to me.... too much effort.. better sit back and watch stream, a.k.a seeing other people try to grind. LOL

Fresh restaurant sushi, from Japan Sushi, Hamar (Norway). Was also cheaper than the one I could buy at the supermarket. 

 

 

Got myself a printer for 349NOK (40USD)

I hope that never happens to me.  ?

 

Some games I don't like when they're too grindy but others it's fun to have a lot to do.  Like Breath of the Wild.  There's 120 shrines (sort of mini-dungeons) and I did them all.  It was a little tricky finding some of them but that's what guides are for.  lol

Yay wireless printing!  I don't print things often but it's great to be able to use my iPad and print with no cables or anything other than selecting print.

AND YOU DONT FIND THAT A GRIND??????????????  For me it was like: oh, wow. so cool! nah, just gonna power off and watch stream, a.k.a other people trying to grind.... (mostly LOL)

 

But seriously though... I still remember when I was 16 , I sit infront of that stupid overheating 720p laptop of mine and play need for speed 8 hours a day, 7 days a week....

A bit but trust me it's a lot more fun than you might think.  It's not grinding in the same way that fighting lots of enemies is.  It's a lot of exploring the game world and you stumble across a lot of them without meaning to so it's easy enough to find many of them.  

 

I used to play Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 on old Compaq laptop that doubled as a lap heater.  Does that count?  lol

And food

What kind of location do you live in (except Japan) where take out sushi looks 10 times better than what's served in restaurants in my area?

[demonix00]

 

Another keyboard since I want enough available for my systems when (and if I ever) get to build them plus I want to have some spares if one breaks down and I have to send it back (plus I was having some minor issues with the vantar which made it not suitable for general use).

 

 

And here's the monster all set up....

[FIXXX]

El Yucateco Sauce Habanero Green Hot (Pack of 4).

 

Not as tasty as regular sriracha but the heat is different. It's alright.

Fair warning: If you want to keep that glossy plastic looking remotely nice, use a nice microfiber towel. Like, a nice one. Otherwise it'll end up like mine with an assload of microscratches.

What's with the giant spacebar though?    I think I like it but I'm confused why it's that large.  

[comicsansms]

Idk if I posted this here, but I cancelled my order for my CPU, memory, motherboard and SSD with PC Case Gear, I reordered with MWave and Amazon US, the MWave stuff is currently at the Startrack depot for me to pickup, I think the amazon stuff should arrive today, but I am not 100% sure about that.

 

I have also ordered Minecraft: The Story of Mojang, C418's album One (MC:SoM Offical soundtrack), Kyell Gold's books Out of Position, Isolation Play and Divisions, (all as ebooks off Amazon) I'll order later books in that series when I have finished Divisions.

1. Nice K70 
2. Why 2 ?

The K70 LUX is nice, but if I build a Ryzen system, it'll probably be replaced by the K95 Platninum for my main build. The K70 will go to the Ryzen system.

 

And I got 2 because I have both a work and a business phone, and AT&T was doing a buy 1, get 1 free for DirectTV customers. The old work phone needed replaced, and I intended to replace the personal at some point, so 2 birds.

I bought a bag of lays potato chips plain from the vending machine

It's so that the thumb can still reach it when using the WASD keys (because jump is bound to the space bar in most if not all fps games).

 

Linus did a video on that keyboard a few years ago.

 

And back on topic

 

 

I received an unexpected shipping notification yesterday since this wasn't expected until next month (although I heard that releases being sent out around a month early is the norm for this distributor).

Oh.  That sounds like a nice feature to have.  More so if you play lots of shooters.  

 

That's cool you got Sound of the Sky.  I have an older DVD release that I haven't gotten around to watching for the first time yet.  ?

 

Have you you see it before that maybe you could tell me how it is?

 

Where'd you order it from?

[NumLock21]

Got one of this for $20 bucks. 32GB @150MB/s read

[Volbet]

I got some more cassette tapes today.

 

 

Top to bottom, left to right:
Requiem Aeternam, Tales of Old and The Forgotten Kingdom by Nazgal Dracul, Sabbat of Bahezaël by Perverted Ceremony and Horror of the Zombies and Ultimo Mondo Cannibale by Impetigo.

 

So, some Norwegian dungeon synth, some Belgian black/death and some American deathgrind.
