I upgraded my monitor to a high refresh 1440p IPS gayming one, fully knowing how many issues their panels have, also without considering my PC's specs.
In the span of a few months i basically had to upgrade my entire computer and now i'm poor as fuck because of it

I bought a years worth of webhosting from godaddy I probably won't end up using.

I love my 3D TV

Rtx 2080ti
Used rtx for like an hour then went back to playing the same old vidya from

The thing is I was using an ethernet cable. It made no sense to me at all that it didn't work

I fell for the gayming laptop meme during college. Wasn't until junior year I stopped stubbornly clinging on to that dream and just built a desktop. Wish I did that sooner, what a waste of money.

Worked like a charm until Nvidia patched it out.

I backed the oculus kickstarter and when my dev kit finally arrived and proved to be unusable garbage, I actually was able to sell it for $1000 to some hyped up shmuck.
