  • I randomly decided to upgrade from a 3700x to a 5700x just after the price dropped to $130 (😮)

    Nice, painless, cheap upgrade…

    Unfortunately…the bios upgrade needed for my Gigabyte x370 board just flat out doesn’t boot so i had to revert it…

    So then i was like fuck it I’ll get a 5000x-ready x570 board…

    But then it’s like hmmm…i can do DDR4-3600 on these boards… might as well get a couple Trident Z Neo sticks…

    And hmm… this board does PCI 4.0 NVME… might as well splurge for a Samsung 980 Pro…

    And now I’m wondering whether to get a new PSU so i can do a second PC with the spare parts… and scoping out GPU deals because I’m already in too deep at this point…

    So now my office is starting to look like a budget version of this post 😅


  • Because we are largely ignorant and easily manipulated by news and social media and there are zero policies in place to address that in any way whatsoever.

    People can hear endless disgusting things about someone like Gaetz and a hand-wavy “fake news!” is all it takes for them to ignore all common sense.

    It’s a disease, it’s terminal, and we have no cure in sight. Don’t be like us. Information warfare is real, it’s effective, and it does require very serious conversations about what is “free speech” is vs. blatant dishonest manipulation of the public.

    We’re not the first nation, nor will we be the last to have our system poisoned and irreparably destroyed endless assaults
