Hmmmm, I'm probably misremembering the size now that you mention it. I'm also practically incapable of remembering when something was, but it would have been around the late 2000s - early 2010s. I do remember it held Windows plus 1-2 games, and I juggled around the games I played most from SSD to HDD and back.

Building and racing cars make dopamine go brrrrrr. And when it breaks down you'll cry anyways. 🤷

American ambassador to Italy refuses to live in the official US residence in Rome. Instead, he stays on a yacht and helicopters to work. in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Holy fucking hell..... I had to reread that 5 times in the article to believe it. I bet if they rebranded it the Fertitta Embassy and flew in Mattress Mack to party he'd stay there. Or maybe it's all a mission to steal family recipes and open an Italian Landry's.

PC SSDs when they first came out, I saved $ and splurged for 256 GB over 128 GB. In the first week I was slightly upset I didn't save more $ and go for a big expensive 512 GB one. Immediately I was telling my other PC gaming friends it's going to revolutionize PCs in general, and to get one ASAP!

Edit: I can't remember shit for fuck, but the size I bought was probably quite smaller than 256 GB lol.

I'm legit scared to try them on, and be overwhelmed by how comfortable they are that I don't care about their looks. But the fact they're the shoes from Idiocracy is keeping me from ever trying. IIRC they weren't even released to the public yet, and Mike Judge was like these are perfect, ain't no way anyone would ever be caught dead in these ugly ass shoes.

Looking good! Very similar to mine: 5800X3D + 6800XT.

Might be worth looking into undervolting that CPU and GPU. I do it for both mine and it is a very noticeable boost to temps, and slight performance increase.
