  • Tbh it’s probably projecting/venting frustration from buying a few (on separate occasions) new processors that turned out to be delidded and broken. Hard to come to any other conclusion (at least for me) than linus tech tips memes gone wrong to get that 10th of a frame performance bleeding over into my hardware.

    Per the specifics of RAM. I have a “enough is enough it’s probably the cheapest component short of a fan component” mentality. But I have a stockpile, buy the cheapest shit, and who the hell am I to judge? People do some wild cool stuff home labbing.

    Sorry if it came across the wrong way, I wasn’t aiming at our community.


  • What does an opinion have to do with my instance?

    You don’t find the computers people sometimes to be excessive? Wasteful? Perhaps components in general would be cheaper otherwise. Cheaper for everyone.

    Maybe you are one of those people. In which case insert greta how dare you meme.

    Your turn slick (you had cool and snappy outtro so I felt obligated)


  • I don’t have any sympathy for people who are equally wasteful making overspecced gaming rigs to get that extra fps out of minecraft or whatever stupid shit people use to justify themselves. Especially if they are just crying about not being able to build this months linus tech tips inspired monstrosity. I say they can go fuck themselves.










  • Parry and hit back. Ask her why it matters what you use if you can function with them as if you use google. Then return fire with your favorite reason not to use google. For me, I like to open the dev tools in Firefox, and show the head of any website. Let them choose. Find the line with google analytics, google tag service, or google ad sense. “Wow this website has nothing to do with google. Why is this here? To track you. Did you know that google can track your mouse? Even if you don’t click on anything? Or they can track you by installing fonts?” Etc. Etc. Scare the shit out of them and they’ll leave you alone. Hopefully you can slowly begin to convert them.
