  • I used all 3 for a few years a short time ago until I traded my aging MacBook for a newer iPad Pro. I still think about going back but for a Mac Mini on the side of my gaming PC.

    But then I feel like it’s more of a gimmick. It’s that feeling I get to just spend for the sake of spending to get something new and shiny, not necessarily because I need or would actually use it for anything I don’t use the others for. I didn’t do much different on there. It was nice for some situations when the other computers (let’s be honest, it was always the Windows PC) would act up like fixing a bad partition.

    But now I am good enough with Windows and Linux. Doing my best to move solely to Linux, but VR and work keep me back. Ugh…



  • The one I got off Amazon for like $25 is only slightly more difficult than replacing your toilet seat. Remove the existing toilet seat, screw this one in, put your toilet seat back on, connect to the water inlet the toilet uses. About a 30-45 minute job in total.

    There’s no electronics because it uses the water pressure to push the water through, so it’ll work even with the power out.

    Especially good for renters because it’ll be just as easy to remove and leaves no permanent change.

    You could go all out and get a more expensive one with heating and other features too, but this has worked for me. Saved me a lot in money.



  • This doesn’t mean anything. Something only has as much value as the customer is willing to pay. People don’t want to pay more than $60 for most new games being released today and companies need to accept that.

    Fuck what it cost years ago.

    Same goes for everything else. You could make the same argument for cars and trucks which are now reaching $50k USD for base features. Still doesn’t matter. Still overpriced.

    Let’s talk about what we’ve lost too. Games used to come as a complete edition. Now you get the game and it’s unplayable on the first day without an update and even then still has features broke, waiting for an update weeks or months later. Not to mention DLC.
