My gaming desktop has a 5950x, I can run virtual machines and all games just fine. No reason to upgrade.
My Plex server runs an Intel 10400, handles everything I throw at it just fine. No reason to upgrade.
My home theater PC runs a Ryzen 1700 and again, runs just fine. No reason to upgrade.
I think the newest CPU in my house is either my Steam Deck’s APU or the one in my PS5.
I’ve got several flash drives from 2 different brands that are less than 3 years old that are already dying. SanDisk and Lexar, both large brands and they’re already losing reliability. Real shame that the older stuff works longer. I really only need them for making Linux bootable drives and they struggle with that.
Yes I am aware some people don’t have a choice but to buy cheap cars, I have been there as well. After high school I paid $800 for a 96 Suburban that was horrible on gas but it was my only viable option. I mainly judge people who spend obscene money on an overpriced vehicle or a big stupid truck that you can tell they only drive on pavement.
Not only am I one of those people, I’m also one who judges people for buying certain cars. Like “Ha, look at that loser who bought that early model Chrysler 300, enjoy your motor blowing up” or “is that a SUPRA that’s actually just a BMW Z4?” Then usually whoever is in the car with me asks what the fuck I’m talking about and I just say “nevermind” and move on to judging the next car in silence.
Except for Tesla’s, I will point at them and yell “ewwww” when I see them, but not because they’re EVs, because of Elon.
You wouldn’t dare
I do Active All by default, see what’s popping. After i exhaust that I go by all Hot. I have a lot of communities filtered (mainly porn ones) to clean up my feed even though I also am subscribed to several communities. Lemmy is still small enough where I don’t feel I need to only see my subs.
I’ve been doing the FBI Surveillance van one for years. 50 is the 5G band and I have 24 as the 2.4G band.
