Now I’m REALLY glad I didn’t buy Vans smart shoes

I haven’t. I’ve only really used Citra for Pokemon 3DS games. When it didn’t run well on my phone I just resolved to play on PC.

Wow thanks for sharing that gist! I never even considered installing and don’t use it, it’s just wild to see how insane that list is.

I’ll have to check that out. Happy with what I’ve been using but always glad to support open source!

I’ve used the paid versions of My OldBoy!, My Boy!, and Drastic for years for GBC/GBA/DS emulation and been very happy with them. Citra for 3DS struggles on my Pixel 6 but is great on my PC

Aight I had to re-read that like 4 times before I realized it was the onion. Like WTF is this timeline 🤮

It’s unfortunately a valid “defeatist” point that I hate finding myself falling back into over and over on so many issues. It shouldn’t be so hard to say ‘yo can you stop taking advantage of me for personal financial gain in every possible scenario’?

I got mine for just under $1800 US early this year, with just online deals available at the time, no waiting for better pricing (honestly PSU prices were INSANE at the time and that made a difference). I wouldn’t change a single part today. It does everything I need (including video editing/rendering)

Short answer: good plan. Check PCPartPicker. Your build is definitely overkill for most people, and you can easily get away with consistent 4k gaming for much cheaper.

Going back through your specs…bro a 4090 costs basically the same as my whole PC that’s running games at 120 FPS+ on a 4k monitor with no issues.

Check out combo deals on Newegg for Mobo+RAM+CPU, or Microcenter if you have one nearby (I don’t). Your biggest factor for gaming will be the GPU. You can run 60+ FPS on a 1080P monitor on 5 year old midrange GPUs. If you need 4k res, ask on PCPartPicker forums.

What I usually tell people is “set a budget”. You can always fall in to the trap of $20 more here, $40 more there…etc and explode your budget.

If you can keep moving the needle, you can keep dumping more into better components in different areas.

Use PCPartPicker to make sure everything is compatible, check the price history to see if there’s a similar component available for cheaper or if you’re getting a good value, and make decisions on what is necessary. Also, pick a date. You can hang around for MONTHS waiting on a certain part to hit a price drop.

The beads speak for themselves

I second John Dies At The End. You may find it under the pen name “David Wong”. Amazing book and a really great movie adaptation, IMO as someone who watched the movie first.

I’m not MAD, I’m just disappointed. And glad I stayed on other apps for podcasts this whole time. Counting the days until they kill YouTube Music for yet another new app that does mostly the same thing but shittier for a couple years until they rinse and repeat the cycle.

Typically once every other day, depending. I spend most of my average work week inside at home, and my very thin hair responds much better when I only wash it every 2-3 days. If I’m going out or otherwise get dirty/smelly, it’s cleaning time regardless.

I’m a huge fan of DiOro at least for silicone utensils. I believe their silicone spatula was the ATK recommendation a few times and I’ve bought a bunch more since then.

My Breville Toaster Oven. I rarely use my regular oven since it’s so much more efficient, and fits 90% of what I cook in a house of 2 people. The air fryer function works really well (obviously not quite as good as a dedicated one).

Wasn’t my first thought but I’m with you on that! I’m personally a huge fan of dioro

Hi shitty sexist choice, it’s me, “consequences”
