Which 4th May is this from? Because if it's from 2007 then that's a perfectly reasonable mid-range machine, but if it's from last month then I really hope he's only using it as a personal Linux box for tinkering.

Well, the x1950 Pro is from Oct 2006 but Grindr didn't launch until March 2009. And I don't know if it launched with the iconic colours but I don't remember any other colours and I do remember using Grindr in 2010. Not sure about 2009.
Edit: nice dick tho
You remember using Grindr? Hah, gay
Good thing that was the giveaway, and not the "nice dick" edit, because I'd like to point out that it's perfectly normal to compliment an acquaintance's dick or give it a suck.

I mean it's from at least roughly back when ATi was a thing
That’s actually kind of sad.
I remember doing a ton of stuff on my core 2 Duo iMac with 2gb ram.
Sure, you won’t be playing cyberpunk, but it ran all the creative suite apps, a few games, and I did a ton of image editing, made movies, and did programming on it.

Intel Core 2 Duo? 4 GB DDR3 RAM?
Cretaceous period intensifies
That was my home server specs til February. Upgraded to a third gen i5 and 8gb ram
I don't know what you guys are talking about?
I've used an old laptop with Windows 11 (just because I wasn't supposed to) which had Core 2 Duo T7500 (upgraded from T7100), 4GB of DDR2 RAM, GeForce 8600M GT, but with an SSD rather than HDD. Pretty usable with that thing.
Unfortunately it broke, but I think it would still be just as good.
oh god what the fuck you ran windows fucking 11 on it??? i have no words
Pretty usable with that thing.
Unfortunately it broke, but I think it would still be just as good.
So pretty usable until windows 11 broke it?

5400RPM?!
Ghosted.
I wouldn't have gotten that far. That utter savage can't even tell the difference between MT/s and MB/s.
It's energy efficient and quiet 🥺 it's romantic because it takes longer 🥺
5400 RPM spinning rust? Walk away.
4GB ram? this guy is lemon party material.
5 inches thick? It’s a chunky clam chowder can, yikes
Unless it's circumference, otherwise it should be advertised as a 5.25inch floppy

...what year is this???
You completely forgot to mention it runs Arch
That is implied.
The Arch is slightly to the left.
I hope this is a really old meme, otherwise I fell bad for my bro.
otherwise I fell bad for my bro
Not sure if you meant to write "feel", but it is too late now.
Maybe you should get in touch 😏

Those specs suck.
I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say the toned one wouldn't know the difference
Seagate never made a 512GB HDD at least that I can find.
Now, now, I'm sure the first guy was "enhancing" his own specs a little bit, too. We all do it.
That said, there are some arguably similar drives listed at 500 GB capacity on ebay. But it's not the size of the disk, it's the gesticulation of the allocation.
I have several 500gb hdd's. I've never seen one labled 512 gb. Only micro sd cards and SSD's. If they did exist, I'd suspect they were either IDE or SAS.
Look, we all exaggerate a lil' bit on dating apps.

Eww 5400 rpm hdd, even in the year here the pc is new is a hard no (also the drive would be 500 gb not 512 that’s an ssd thing not mechanical drives typically). 7200 rpm and highest cache amount possible please

Intel
Okay off to a bad start.
Core 2 Duo
Ok boomer.
But what's the radius of the balls?
~5 inches thick means the circumference, I assume? Because a ~12cm diameter sounds rather uncomfortable.

The PC... 🤏
In its hay day I would have killed for that.
P.S. my auto-correct wants me to say "have gotten killed for that". Yet again, I'm the victim.

As a man who doesn't use things like grindr, I get the feeling that men who get that specific about their body measurements are probably red flags. Is that correct?

How is that outdated machine the correct response? My brother in Christ, you need to upgrade that rig out of 2004.
