I'm almost exclusively using tech from before the pandemic (desktop from 2019 being the oldest) and it's such a blessing not having the time to keep up with new games. I'm convinced I won't need more powerful computers before 2030.

I was dumb enough to get a new Samsung phone last time I needed a phone so the battery will likely be toast long before that, but in terms of power my old Samsung S9 (2018) is still plenty.

It's wild to me that gamers are still expected to upgrade their rig every other year or even sooner.

I just got out of the stock market recently to get myself a bigger apartment. Felt really insecure about the decision until now (budgeting is tight). Feel for everyone that have their savings in this dumpster fire.

That's how the world works unfortunately, someone has to pay for it

I'm so glad I made the choice to move away from Gmail and Google search a few years ago.

Can we just start to state the obvious? They want the minerals on Greenland for tech "adventures" so they don't have to rely on China.
