Is a used car from like the 90’s gonna be a bigger money sink than something more recent? My dad is telling me to buy something more recent, but I just want an old Honda or Volvo or something…

@PurpCat Shein junk is showing up in thrift stores now, accidentally bought a Shein shirt at Goodwill and it actually disintegrated in my washing machine

ThinkPad W500 ATI GPU dieded :blobsob: I just want a cool old laptop with no problems

@beardalaxy yeah nigga my boomer parents were literally just going around saying "I hope XYZ gets Luigi'd" at every minor inconvenience for the past few weeks while simultaneously crying that these overvalued inflated companies have finally sprung a leak. Didn't the S&P double in five years while we were locked up in a "pandemic"? Weren't people saying we were in a bubble for that entire time? The fuck are people crying about now. We're probably on the cusp of the biggest "I told you so" of our lifetime.

How is it an order of magnitude cheaper to get an AliExpress USB cable shipped from Guangzhou than it is to buy one at Walmart (also shipped from Chyna)? Wasn't Coke hiring South American PMCs to kill unions in their factories or some shit and now people want to protect the company? Foxconn paying slaves like $12 a month to make iPhones and I should care Apple is in the red for a week? This shit isn't sustainable or healthy. Don't give a fuck anymore, if I can't buy a house you can't buy your yearly iPhone bitch.

@beardalaxy I dunno thing I have notices is when $70 games started showing up and when that $100 GTA6 rumor started too people were saying "I'll gladly pay it if it's good and not live service slop," not saying that people complaining are the people who were also saying that but that is a reasonable take I think. So unless MKW and other Nintendo games are just bad and have live service mechanics then personally I'm okay (just okay) with more expensive games. In the case of MK specifically I think it will probably have way more content than release MK8 but I fear they might dip their toes into live service/microtransaction junk with costumes and stuff.

I'm kinda shamefully sold on the Switch 2 fuck me I'm like a beer battered housewife

@beardalaxy CRTs are just "retro gamer monitor $200 I know what I have" it's fucked. I mean I'm sure you know... but dammit, people were giving them away 10 years ago!!! And prices on good 4:3 LCDs are getting unreasonable now too... I just want a normal option for 4:3, at the least, dammit! There's new 1080p monitors for like $80, why can't they just chop the sides off of it!!!

I got a CRT but I'm about to trash it, it's too dim (even at night) and has some weird alignment issue... If I can ever find a reasonably priced 1600x1200 CRT locally I'll definitely jump on it but I haven't seen much around the past few years...

Why don't they just make modern 4:3 gaymer monitors with nice color gamut and 240Hz and super high resolution I would kill for one reeeEEE

WEBSITES DON'T EVEN USE THE EXTRA HORIZONTAL SPACE 16:9 IS A FUCKING SCAM

2025 must be the year of "normalfags finally figuring out shit we were telling them over a decade ago"

@beardalaxy If it's good then they will have people asking "why didn't they make this story a game" so thinking it will be extremely safe and mid

@PurpCat @Forestofenchantment @beardalaxy @sneeden Considering Jobst's pivot from nice positive vids about speedrunning achievements and milestones to clickbait constantly bashing on Mitchell and random literally-who cheaters, I'm kinda thinking "get fucked" just a little bit

Would stupid faggots be trying to bootlick Miyazaki and complain about copyright infringement if there were a bunch of hand-drawn Ghibli-style memes or nah

@beardalaxy yeah that's FGC streamers that try to channel their inner Aris/AvoidingThePuddle but end up just being shitty to everyone who doesn't praise them for existing
