I don’t have anything to hide but I also don’t have anything I want them to see.

Oh you want to play Batman Returns? Well let me just pull out my boot disk here.

Good times but also bad times.

I’m in an MBA program and it is even dumber than I had assumed.

I started using Qobuz as an alternate streaming site. I enjoy it and it has helped me broaden my musical horizons. I also go to shows, buy music at shows, use band camp to buy stuff, and frequent record stores. I don’t need some fucking dip telling me how to enjoy music.

That’s an interesting theory on the CPUs. Though it walways takes longer for prices to drop than it does to rise. I’ll be keeping an eye out.

You’re right that selling the parts may not actually be profitable or even recoup expenses. Though I was thinking I had a gpu that’s decent enough for my 1080p gaming so could sell whatever 5000 series comes with it for cheap and give someone a nice deal.

What is the feasibility of getting a prebuilt gaming PC and using it for the parts I need/want and selling the rest of it? Anyone do this?

My old HTPC is running a Z87 motherboard with a 4770k i5 cpu with 16gb of ddr3 ram. It is chugging along. I had plans to build out something new in the same case but I don’t want to feed into this bullshit by buying now. The more people show their willingness to pay these prices the happier manufacturers and retailers will be to charge them. But I think it might get worse, too, and maybe not better. Ugh.

Whatever I build might be the last one I do considering how long I kept this one.

🤨🤨🤨

Oh I might need to try jumping back in to this. I had fun with it way back when.
