Thermaltake
i dont even have one drive
idk whta that is
Are you using another online file backup system?
If not, it's OneDrive
no
Yeah it's auto installed with windows
check apps for onedrive
I drank expensive whiskey and now my favorite whiskey tastes gross to me.
My fav is Wild Turkey 101
You can't uninstall it iirc but turning off file backup in it and stopping it from launching at startup is the same as uninstalling
it saids one dive not sync
Woodford is okay but I'd take Knob Creek over Woodford
Have you even had WT 101>
yes
wat
no thank you
WOW
I'll have to try it. I usually drink J.P Wiser's and have Jameson as a treat.
But have you ever had thermal paste
Actually I have a bottle on my shelf rn
Wiser's 18 year was the expensive one.
you talking regular WT 101 or the 12 year
Reg
ah
You hate to reverse the polarity of the electron flow
ohhhh, you have different taste than i do
one drive folder is emty
i don't like JD either except the red label rye
i am so confued why it has green tick
I haven't liked the American whiskeys I've tried
everything i can find says it's onedrive
but i never sgined up for it
Yeah believe so
you don't have to
Look in your taskbar
and its not synced
Click on the blue cloud
s'all good, we don't all have to like the same things
Click on the settings cog
No you have to like everything I like or bad
Find the option to turn off file backup
i like old fashioneds and JD and WT don't cut the mustard anymore after some higher end stuff
ig i have to create acc to see
Then quit OneDrive from task manager and turn it off at startup
If you have a Microsoft account you've got OneDrive
wait asus makes fans too?
ok
daheck
JD kind of killed my expectations for American whiskeys
it's better than the others
Im used to the sweet taste of Wiser's.
ah, you aren't in the us?
No, I'm in Canada
figured after you said wiser's lol
What I will say is this last work trip I was on 3 places didn't ask for my ID when ordering a drink which felt good.
taste will come to you or maybe not
I must be looking older, I'm only 23 tho
or some places just don't care
I act older
confidence will do that
It was a good trip
Didn't get asked for my ID 3 times, got a womans number, got work done. It went great.
after Blantons and Angels Envy and Knobel it's hard to go back to regular bourbons
It takes a while to get used to.
i have only tried a hand full of whisky
sounds like a good trip!
I'd say start with the nose, once you get that then move to pallet
i also drink it straight and don't mix it, that might change things also
just some whiskey rocks
Also knowing what you're talking about when ordering a glass of whiskey helps
yeah they know you're not a noob then lol
I remember when I unlocked the ability to taste the different flavors in whiskey. I was staying in a train station for the night and watching Netflix and I stopped watching the movie just to focus on the whiskey
it's amazing what happens when you can concentrate on that
the coffees, vanillas, wood barrel all come out
worst for me was when i had the C
everything tasted like water for 3 weeks
even alcohol
I ended up drinking way too much that night and threw up in the parking lot right before a 10 hour car ride
bruh that's rough
Like saying
"I want some jack Daniels or if y'all have anything stronger gimmie that"
VS Saying
"I'd like a double Jack Daniels, served neat in a old fashioned glass if you have it"
You get two totally different results from the server.
had a decent old fashioned at a japanese steakhouse last night
hibachi place
they actually used woodford too
I don't go to bars or restaurants so I just enjoy my whiskey at home while listening to music.
ya know what we do that camping
get the Boom outside, camp chairs, sip a little drink
watch a fire
Drinks at the fire with friends is a good time
not gonna hurt anything other than annoying checks
ok
My friends don't drink though so I have to do that with my dad's friends.
i mean its just rlly random like i clicked nothing and boom green tick apears
or whiskey and root beer
try right click desktop and choose refresh
I'm not allowed to encourage mixing caffeine & alcohol.
||Do it it tastes good, but at your own discretion.||
I have to wake up early so I'm going to head out now.
night!
Byeeee
I don't see the refresh
I'm not even having a whiskey night.
huh i have a refresh on Win 11
I was working this past week & met one of the Modelo reps, this guy hooked me up with a ton of Modelo merch & a case of beer
not sure if win 10 does or not
I'ma just leave
530 bucks not bad
Thanks for help
welcome sorry they're still there
matches the build so well
somewhat
for half price i wouldn't care lol
7900GRE where i live goes for the same price
bro got lucky fr
525 usd hmm
Back to James Bond binge
still hella cheap
looks like this is the cheapest USED 7900 XTX
What's the xtx nivda equivalent?
^^^
4080 is bad value for gaming but good value for tensor core stuff
from what I gather
Also going to try to learn how to install Gentoo manually
I mean
It's honestly not too bad
wow thermaltake has come a long way with fans
$960 atm vs $910 xtx
clip together reversible rgb fans for $60/3
I keep seeing them for $1100
Look at 4080 super
well for new units $1000 is the cheapest I see
ah
open box is my version of "new"
Wait why cant I send images
oh dayum for 58 more you get the super
Ah
since you're new you just gotta talk a bit (do not spam)
make sure you read the rules before posting
Ok well, I suppose i'll just explain the computers I have lol
ok
My daily rn is a old Dell Inspiron 1520 with a battery acid green shell lol
It runs Windows XP
And I got like, tons of other laptops, my collection includes
-A thinkpad 11e (bad keyboard)
-A Dell Latitude D600
-A Dell M4800 (bad batt)
-A Hp G62 (bad batt)
-Random chromebooks I kinda just use at random
Mind you, this does not include the multiple parts laptops I have lol
well..... hate to break it to you but battery acid is either transparent or a bit browned from lead and zinc or whatever leeching in it
💀
Oh, sorry
lol it's fine, but unfortunately it's not green lol
mt dew green got it lol
Never have been able to describe the color well, so I always went with battery acid green
ngl not many fluids that we have in use that are naturally green
Naaaah its lighter than that
coolant is sometimes dyed green
Definitely lighter than coolant
fluoro green?
Nevermind I cannot
nah, there's no channels you can post images in yet
doesn't matter lol
gotta get level 3
real
Could ya post it for me then, I suppose lol
work hard to show us the green
^^^
Eh, fair enough
mans bringing back the 90's
Well, kinda, im just broke lol
how about compaq?
nothing wrong with that
Hence why I use Windows XP
Too late
oh
Hey lookie another mutual server member
Eh, mines been doing ok for a month now
Looks like you're fitting here
don't do any kind of sensitive stuff on it
considering nobody else engages in your old tech talk in another side
Granted,i've been using a secure browser
i'm not kidding
Oh, no no I dont do anything sensitive on it lol
so, discord does work on XP?
LOL the server went ham on him saying its not safe
Yeah actually
well obv u can use discord on browser
keyloggers..............
oh wow
Well wait, the app?
ye
Nah i'll have to test that
Well, thing is
do you have any plans on building a future pc?
but anyway whats the question?
This laptop is so old, that it cant lol
ahhh
Sometime,yeah
the pc dream
But thats when I earn more money doing lawncare
i'll bet if you sold all that stuff you could get a decent newer laptop
good luck then
Eh, wouldnt be right to me morally
I got alot of it for free
oh
Built some stuff outta spare parts
i mean, i get the morals
I would use the M4800, but
Its got a bad battery
So its just kinda a desktop for now
have they shown you the video about connecting xp to the internet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uSVVCmOH5w
Have you ever wondered if it's true you can instantly get malware? In this video we discover how dangerous XP really is.

you should check some of what he finds
The 11e used to be my daily,but the keyboard went pfft
conhoz.exe etc
Well, tbf I dont do anything too crazy with it
If anything,I mostly use it for classwork
it's not you doing anything crazy they'll use it as part of a botnet
Have kinda considered transferring all my data to a Vista install
Apparently, Vista is still pretty secure,for some weird reason
inb4 someone invents green battery acid
Not sure why
it's secure because everyone hated it and no one is still using it
Ah, yeah that may explain it lol
everyone and their mother had XP
Might be a good idea to switch to Vista sometime then
i would recommend
The ironic part is all the work that we do is benefiting someone else.
it was new and clunky and the biggest issue with Vista wasn't Vista
it was 3rd party drivers
they caused the majority of issues
Yeah I mean, honestly Vista was pretty neat, all things considered
for its time
I had Vista with an i7 920, 12 GB of RAM and Radeon HD 4890... that was peak Vista
i forgot about aero
My laptop is literally designed around the look of Aero lol
Aero was the best UI MS ever made, and then they threw it away...
Its a Inspiron 1520
It was, honestly
Now its just bland, simple shapes
So bland, that when I had my 11e, I got rid of the w11 ui lol
Using Openshell, Winaero tweaker and Retrobar, I decided to have a little fun and basically make my copy of W11 into a Longhorn 4074 clone lol
are those all laptops or do you have a desktop?
The Gateway 366c and E-3000 are my desktops
I also have some incomplete projects in other places lol
Like a Apple IIe i'm rebuilding
internet exploder
Thats about how it is, yeah-
strikes again
Never understood the Edge rebrand
it's because they switched to chromium
they moved to the chromium engine
The name "Internet Explorer" had more character to it though
internet explorer used to run on microsoft's code or whatever
which is why it was so garbage
Honestly, i'm surprised it still works
I greatly dislike edge
Like, seriously
Bring back Netscape Navigator pls
Internet Explorer still works
It seems apple coded
Just,it connects through Bing now
it works but performs like crap
Its weird
Oh I see you Eclipse.
Whatcha mean
You forgot about mic
(The switch to IPS actually deleted my web cam lol)

Anywho, im gonna save all my .rtf docs to google docs
Firefox is where it is at
So I can switch to Vista
Basic chroom
i use chrome but i dont use google
I don't need to worry about ram atm, i don't do anything ram intensive really
And when ya got cheap laptops like I do,well
I'd likely be fine with 16gb with what I do atp
You want all the ram you can get
I upgraded to 32gb when I was streaming but that didn't last long
I use Firefox and DuckDuckGo
No I get it
I was on a 4030u laptop with 4gb for a long time
Then a gt 1030 3470 desktop with 8gb
Im on a 2gb Inspiron lmfao
I left for Firefox when Google made that change to stuff in an attempt to stop adblockers
I just can't be bothered to switch over
And I've never cared enough to use an adblocker
Actually, if I remember correctly
Firefox does the switching for you
Or no wait was that Opera
I also greatly dislike opera
On said 4030u laptop, before I had it my grandma installed like 40 downloads of opera
bruh
And if that fails,back to XP
WAIT IM GREEN NOW
I CAN SHOW Y'ALL THE COLOR OF MY LAPTOP
This was before I cleaned it,but this
This shade of green
that's the green of old plastic
hydrogen peroxide and uv light will make it new again
Ye I dunno what it is
Called it Smartcar green for a time
Cause I mean, the name wasnt far off
The Inspirons had fun colors though lol
Mine used to be blue, before the IPS swap
Had to look it up, apparently my laptop is called "Spring green"
The old color I had was "Midnight blue"
Vista time
i had the cherry color
well my family anyway
nvm it was a vostro
that color man
snazzy
Ngl I like that color
We had a Dell Inspiron from when they did the Lollipop commercial
Core 2 duo go brrrr
I think Vostros are similar to Inspirons in some ways though
I know I used a Vostro driver to fix my Inspirons speakers lol
Man. Why cant laptops come in fun colors anymore
Only ones that still do that I know off the top of my head are HP Streams
Pretty sure you can still buy one in pink lol
idk don't own any lol
My fans go whiiiir
but for the build i'm considering they'd look good
something has to be wrong here
Nah actually
Oh my bad lol
I finally got around to changing the thermal pads to thermal putty
so far I've only run VRMark Orange room
but Memory junction hit a max 42C so far
I was climbing as high as 110C before
gonna go Spy on some Time & see how that goes tho before I declare victory
I can probably fry a egg on my Inspiron after running it for awhile lol
Also, man
Decisions
Think I should do a dad move and use the chess pic
dog, always dog
well it appears it might be a little on the older side
thats wild, my gpu hit a max of 70c mem today
cuz of how it looks & it appears you're using win7 lol
Nope,older
Vista
oh nooo
run 7 or xp but not vista lmao
I decided it upgrade from XP to Vista
Since I connect to wifi alot
Apparently Vistas pretty secure still, so thats neat
windows vista technically was my first OS experience
I'd be happy as heck with 70C tbh. I'm not exaggerating hwinfo was showing max memory temps at 110C before
my first computer that was actually mine
yikes
had the infamous Millennium Edition
I decided to go with the dog
flower pic is for real OGs
fr
Yeah but I prefer the flower pic for 7,tbh
I usually went with the chess piece ngl
you know there's a relatively updated vista?
I had it in a VM
???
i wonder if opening solitaire on OG vista actually blue screens the PC
like in this one video i watched
it's called uh...Vienna maybe? hold on
Gotta get that classic Vista background, 110%
third pic looks like the matrix a little bit from the way you took it
what is it, a forest
A forest,ye
HOLY SMOKES THATS MY FIRST FAMILY PC
my first PC had Windows XP, but not OG windows XP
the login screen on my winXP was different from the OG login screen
I had the OG Compaq with the JBL speakers on the CRT & the speaker grilles matched the front of the PC
It died due to overheating
it's still in my garage somewhere
has a floppy disc drive lmao
i cant believe pcs back then in the 2000s still had floppy disc drives
mine would do this thing where it would just randomly freeze, make a beep noise (old enough for POST speaker thing built in still lol), & wouldn't work for like 4 hours
mine had floppy & it was so baller it had CD-ROM & CD-RW
Im 17 now, so I wanna say I had my Dimension when I was 10 or 8
Dell dimmadome
my first monitor
1440x900
i think mine has either dvd-rom and dvd-rw or cd-rom & cd-rw, don't know but it has two disc drives
it lasted a good while
i really wanna know what version of WinXP it uses though
Those speakers
it's different from normal windows XP
My monitor, for awhile, was a generic Acer
Judging by the style,if I had to guess
low quality but it got the job done
SP3
Costco baller system lol
Wait,wrong person
not too bad
old baller
I actually have a old Compaq case in storage
Gonna use it to build my pc,when I get money lol
if I still had it, I'd bench it then build a modern system in it lol
bro is gonna make a sleeper
I still have my first laptop
A Dell D600
Remember when laptops came without Wifi cards
my friends used to come over & give that poor PC diseases downloading trash on KaZaA
okay running Steel Nomad rn
Heck yeah, seems all the drivers work flawlessly
if memory stays cool thru this, I'm declaring victory lol
I hate how long Steel Nomad takes to launch wth
lol be careful that OS is so outdated that putting it on the internet might be risky
Actually, its still pretty secure apparently
I wonder when it stopped receiving updates
Probably 2014
Win8.1 Embedded Industry Pro is pretty fire
Same time as XP i'd assume
you can get all sorts of old OSs on archive.org
lol if you look up Integral Windows XP
they still update that crap
these crazy hecks keep it updated https://zone94.com/downloads/software/operating-systems/160-windows-11-23h2-16in1-x64-integral-edition
Free interesting content from across the Internet (Articles, News, Videos, Music, Images, Programs, and a lot more).
last update was like 12 days ago lmao
oops wrong thing hold on
Was about to say-
sorry last update was June 6, 2024 https://zone94.com/downloads/software/operating-systems/123-windows-xp-professional-sp3-x86-integral-edition#:~:text=Includes ALL the latest Windows XP and POSReady 2009 Updates/Hotfixes
Free interesting content from across the Internet (Articles, News, Videos, Music, Images, Programs, and a lot more).
Huh, and its still safe to use?
How'd they do it?
based on the changelogs, I think they mostly patch windows 8.1 updates into it somehow
lol tbh I dunno how safe it would be to use
Well,only one way to find out
Yknow the Weird Al song "Dare to be Stupid"
lol dunno that one
Fun listen,but anywho
his Episode 1/American Pie song is good
I'm daring to be stupid rn lol
grab like a $30 SATA SSD for that system & it'll run so much faster
if you're on an HDD atm I mean
ya my dad's old computer ran on an HDD & it was so slow
Only lasted like, a few minutes-
I got like a $30 PNY CS900 for it & it was like night & day fr
lol I wonder if you put a USB drive in it if it would offer to use it for ReadyBoost
RAM used to be so slow that using a flash drive helped
Rufus cant burn it onto my USB-
I use Ventoy
so I can have a bunch of ISOs at once
instead of like dedicating the entire usb drive to one ISO
Well,lemme see if that'll fix it
Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk again and again, you just need to copy the iso file to the USB drive and boot it.
If not, then yeah i'll just chill with Vista lol
lol can you install Discord or anything on vista? ig you could use web browser version
Windows seems really easy to corrupt these days I dunno why
CPU-Z will run on a potato

It corrupted itself, so it wouldnt install = /
Oh well, Vista time it is then
ah heck oh well
I put thermal putty on 4090
SuperPosition 8k Optimized
GPU temp (max): 48.3C
GPU Hot Spot (max): 57C
Memory Junction (max): 82C
GPU Rail Power: 540.127w
GPU OC: +240

gonna try +270/+1200
heck it doesn't wanna run
moar voltagee
heck doesn't like it
Moar voltage
I'm at 1.46 memory & 1.010 core
Which putt putt u use
the heckin K5 cuz Amazon had it
I know there's better
I should've been patient
funny this is it's been sitting on my desk for like a month lol
heck still won't run benchmark
gonna drop memory a bit ig
K5 is fine imo
Just don't throw like
800W through the block
Then it becomes a bottleneck
Utp-8 is way better, fixes that
GPU core has liquid metal ofc
I'm interested that you somehow have worse mem temps on less power than I remember mine having on K5
Might be block difference
bitspower block is like EK status
Not that it really matters unless you evc
dunno what's up with this heckin thing tbh
ya I saw that thing you tagged me in
They have a press block in place or something
I haven't seen anything new about it yet
The longer we don't know what's going on the worse it gets
well yeah the government is going after them
I think their accounts are frozen or something
Cos there isn't anything
government froze accounts and put the hammer down
I check techpowerup randomly to see things I can't afford lol
once governments bring the hammer down like that, they're often quiet until they finish asking questions, reviewing seized documents, etc. lol
for like power delivery on usb?
They're making that 8 for next gen am5
Ya and pcie
They've increased the power limit on it
iirc that's what some boards I have that have the extra connection on the board claim it's for iirc
80C mem temp 549w
They add anymore and these boards will have usb vrm soon wtf
lol & we'll need PSUs with 4x 12vhpwr
150W rated max draw
Like
That's at least 4x50a
For step down to 5v
That's ridiculous
& PSU will come with two wall connections so you can pull power off multiple circuits cuz typical 15A home circuit won't be enough
ya damn USB does run at 5v
Lol
that's some serious amperage lmao
need like what, uh 6 AWG or something lol
damn I'm not even sure what I'd do with it like
charge my laptop while using desktop?
ig I wouldn't have to pull out the charger
charge phone in 40 minutes & wonder why it's so hot
monitor has a 90w usb charging port 
damn dude
someday I wanna have like a dedicated office & what not
& by the sound of it, I'm gonna need my own sub-panel in there
on a lighter note, I think I can move back to 7900X3D. As fun as it's been messing with all this crap, I think I'm gonna go against my usual ways & leave some performance on the table
I don't wanna test core offsets anymore to heck with this
whatever PBO, you can keep your 50mhz I give up
LOL
Literally me a year ago
Me when
First thing i thought

Is this mexico
Why is it so yellow
The rog oled monitor has 90w USB charging port?
yo guys
is it worth it?
i need some fans and well this is also an aio
which i dont mind having at all
Been playing Monster hunter World/Iceborne again
I forgot how insanely fun it is
trying new weapons now too. Lance is so goofy to use
My 2080Ti had a type c port that would put out 27 watts and supported PD fast charging
ah makes sense
Neat
I forgot to reinstall XP while sleeping
So uh
We're doing sketchy stuff in the middle of class
Looks retro
Apparently if you have an oculink port, you didn't need that psvr2 adapter to use a psvr2 on pc
From what I read, the psvr2 uses a slightly modified version of oculink for its connection
higher fps
that isn't very assuring

Sad bruh
Bruh when are we gonna get a dGPU in consoles lol. I'm tired of these weak little APUs
also Series S existing doesnt help
I liked Vista more than XP tbh
but I also had Vista when it was already fixed up and drivers were good
also had it on hw that was overkill for it
This guy installing Windows XP mid-class
"I hate this job"
Cow tools
what happens when you mix switches
on a keyboard? nothing
like holy panda x with silent blues
sound wise
some people have different switches on say like, the space bar
oh
probably not a huge difference
Same. I never understood the hate. I thought vista was way better than XP
I never had any issues with vista lol
Same
i think most people who say xp was the best were the ones that havent tried vista
i feel like most people went from xp straight to 7
Iirc the problem with vista was that the OS was too heavy for the PCs at the time
💀
It's when windows 7 came out the parts inside the computers caught up
8 was the only windows OS I had a ton of problems with but they fixed all my issues with it within about 6 months
of me having it
i was on windows 8 and then made the foolish decision to upgrade to 8.1
my netbook decided to crap itself from that
the only thing I really hated about 8 was the start menu being like that appstore lookin thing
was running great on windows 8 then it didnt run good at all on 8.1
I remember using windows 8.1 on my athlon ii X4 630 rig
I thought the OS was quicker
but there was a way to convert it to a win8 version of the previous start menu
8.1 was better but he did say an old netbook which I'm imagining is one of those small notebook laptops with like, no power.
I had one and trying to upgrade windows on it was a mistake lol
I got a win10 device that was basically a tablet with like, 100gb memory (barely enough for the OS) and had an dettachable keyboard
i put win 11 on it, barebones as possible
it runs so bad lol
Hey, do any of y'all remember clockgen or setfsb?
nope
Back then, I used clockgen to overclock a Dell computer
And then it would crash on boot lol
I didn't OC at all until my ryzen 2600 lol
Heh
The only other thing I've OC'd is a pi

good job
I am a slight idiot
I mean, I figured you were calling me that,which I agree on
all i said was good job
Cause somehow, like a absolute moron, I installed SP2
Yeah well i'm pretty pissed off at myself for it
Wth
Yeah pretty sick huh?
@everyone
Nice try
💀
imagine a failed @everyone attempt

Good general use laptop with a touch screen? $500-$1000 budget
Not that knowledgeable
So I’m askin
For you or for one of your clients?
If it's for you, I promise you won't care about the touchscreen after a week of using the laptop lol
But probably just any Lenovo with a touchscreen would be fine
i wouldnt say that
there's def people who need it for certain things
lol
What's a good fridge brand
general electric
bosch
whirlpool
(not in any particular order)
avoid samsung and lg fridges
i have a kenmore fridge, but that doesnt exist anymore since sears went defunt
but it was made by whirlpool afaik
main problem with samsung and lg fridges is that getting them services is hella expensive
they do also have some reliability concerns
also the less features and more dumbed down the fridge is, the more reliable (and cheaper to repair) it is
which is why commercial grade freezers and fridges are so good
they're easy to repair relatively speaking

Friend of mine
I find it weird why it can do so much better, but also end up matching its previous gen so often. For me i pay more attention to how far ahead it can go as that can show you how well it will serve you doing forwards. Sure previous gen can barely edge it out in some very few cases, but going forwards current gen will def be catered towards and should outpace it in the future

Is it a prebuilt?
Link it to us
Would you be alright with refurbished? I can find something a little better.
wait this is refurbished?
Nonono
on the newegg site?
I was asking if you’re okay with a refurbished machine.
Like if I can find one for you.
Thanks
@dense cosmos you got access to eBay?
no
Hm
Then I’m gonna suggest asking one of the Canadian people in here
Am unfamiliar with Canadian stuff
Is ebay still reliable
100%
the link i sent you think the spec's are not good enough?
They are, but there are other deals elsewhere that might be better
Less ram and storage, but $300 cheaper.
In US**
that's 900 USD
mine is 1400 CDN
CDN ebay will be WAY MORE
we don't have the best conversion rates
but thank you for looking
I’d suggest letting a Canadian individual here look into any alternatives before you buy that one though
Thank you
@craggy shoal do i go for it
It's the same fan in the video just a different person selling them
Yo they come in white too

Yeah that's kinda what I'm thinking lol. This might just be Lian Li's supplier
Its only 104 for 9 fans so like not that bad considering they look the same
Ima try them out, if they don't work well i can always return them
lemme know how well they work. I'm wanting some new fans too lol
I only went for them since they have a reverse set so i can appriciate the infinity mirrors
That too
bruh these are the same exact fan 💀
The hate was from a combination of:
- OEMs shipping systems that couldn't run it... with it installed.
- The "Vista Capable" stickers being a joke
- Lack of drivers/bad drivers at launch
- People not used to UAC/elevation dialogs
- There being a really low end version with basically no customization features
If you avoided all that it was a great OS.
You really needed at least a dual-core and 2 GB of RAM as absolute minimum for a decent experience.

anyone have feedback on this link https://www.newegg.ca/p/N82E16883360502

If anyone can help him better than I tried to earlier**
Gayt

Bruh I'm at work and this goober is showing me his tattoo
Noob
bro wants attention
He's talking to me because I’m the only one around lol
tell him it looks nice
So cute
I’m over here just wanting a new car and this goober yaps about his tattoo
Thats crazy
They are half the price
Less than half actually
lol my first desktop shipped with vista and it was a dual core cpu and 2gb ram That's all I remember about the specs really tho. My mom's pc shipped with it too and it looked fancier but the specs were lower and it did have some issues but it was usable. I never had any issues with it what-so-ever and I just had a much more enjoyable experience than the XP family PC that sat in the livingroom. It was like going from something super old school to something that looked like a spaceship to 14 year old me, and being young I easily adapted to it
100%? nah there defo is still bad actors on there lmao
I think it was an HP pavilion
there's always been bad actors on ebay and that will never go away. Ebay is super buyer friendly though. Just look at the reviews for the seller you're buying from
Noob
Well yeah
But eBay as a whole shouldn’t be discounted for its past
True
Though I still wouldn't have said 100% in case of a false sense of confidence in the platform
Hell, I wouldn't even fully trust Amazon's marketplace sellers
The platform is only as trustworthy as the sellers are
But again, amazon is also very buyer friendly. It's really easy to get your money back if you buy on their platform
so I would argue they are both good options, maybe not quite 100%, but up there
True, Amazon does provide a bit more protection
Definitely better than some other options lmao
Almost got scammed once so I reported the scammer to their support... next day I got an email stating they deleted the scammer
So does ebay. If you can't resolve an issue with the seller, and you escalate to ebay, they will almost always get your money back and punish the seller as long as you attempted to talk to the seller in good faith. The problem is, this can bite sellers in the ass a lot
Ebay is great for buyers, not always great for sellers IMO
probably why ebay sellers leave positive feedback on my profile when I buy from them because that is the process I do. I never had to go beyond the seller though because I tend to buy from sellers with a rep to maintain
yeah I've only returned like 2 items in my lifetime to ebay, and ended up getting full refund and keeping the product both times
never had to escalate beyond seller
eBay HATES sellers that scam. They will yeet them the second they start scamming
same for Amazon
So, the oddest occurence happened today

I reunited with the first laptop I ever bought with my own money lol
I sold it over 2 years ago,but somehow, a teacher at my school bought it, and was gomna get rid of it
how do you know it was your specific laptop
This was after I sold it to someone else
A very specific skidmark lol
well, neat
That's so cool
You should install what you had on it at the time
Thats what i'm gonna do
It was still Win 8, near the end of its support actually lol
I wonder what's going to happen to my current laptop
I once bought a copy of pokemon gold and was talking to a friend about it and he told me his got stolen but he had written his name on it, and his name was written on the back of the copy I had just bought lol
Hahahahahahaha
he tried to convince me to give it to him for free. I said no he can pay me for it or I keep it lol
oh yeah it was hilarious
Little thing must have had a wild journey, seeing it ended up where I got it from originally lol
My laptop's four years old now
but I aint losing money so if he wanted it he had to pay me what I paid for it. And this was during the big pokemon boom when they were like 80 bucks at the low end lol
I can remember when it was new
4 years is nothin
i think my main laptop is 3 years, and my gaming laptop is like 6 or 7 years old
both work fine
well the gaming laptop works fine when plugged in. got it back in the day when gaming laptops ran like an overloaded netbook if they were unplugged
Boy am I glad to not open my back door.
Ever.
you gotta burn your house down now
the hell is that?
He’s still outside
weird ass spider
But I’m so glad my back door hasn’t been opened in 2 years
that doesn't look like it's outside
☠️
I have a screen door and an actual door
