My friends and me with magic the gathering

It only feels that way because corporations and their billionaire leaders keep eroding our ability to afford anything beyond basic requirements and decreasing the amount that they pay for labor. Working 40 hours a week should give you enough money to survive and have a couple of hobbies, at a minimum.

That's why I won't start painting 40K minis, even if I'd love to. I wouldn't even want to play. Besides, I wouldn't have anyone to play with, anyway.

Og dawn of war with unification is fucking awesome. It's not entirely like the tt game, but I personally think it's better.

[–] t_berium@lemmy.world 3 points 57 minutes ago (1 children)

DoW is what got me to 40k in the first place! After all these years I'm still not interested in playing the TT. I just read the books and play the video games. But I imagine painting the minis would be therapeutic.

Craft beer for me.

I live in Canada, do you know how much the standard video game costs here now? Like $90.

Conlanging is a very cheap hobby. Quoth Tolkien in A Secret Vice

It is incidentally one of the attractions of this hobby that it needs so little apparatus!

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i mean, my hobbies have major upfront expenses but are cheap afters. bideo games: console expensive, library games free. musical instruments expensive, reeds/springs cheap, music cheap/free. smoker expensive, food only a little more expensive. just gotta choose well.

Between photography, motorcycles, and tools (woodworking/metalworking/automotive) this does seem accurate for me - I have ended up spending a fair chunk of money between these over the years. The tools do mean I can do stuff myself though rather than paying someone else so they at least are less of a money pit.

Every now and then I think paragliding would be an interesting thing to try but I have to tell myself another expensive hobby is hard to justify when I'd like to actually own a place to live some day.

What do you mean? You will simply live in your paraglider! You'll be like one of those birds that stays aloft for months at a time. There you will be, a child of the sky. No need for land. No need for rent. Just a literal leaf on the wind.

You can't take the sky from me...

Not in America! My hobby is my second job

[–] Scrizzle@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 hours ago

I play Star Citizen. My wife has no idea the cost. I have no regrets.

These guys seem awesome. They deleted their backlog in like 1992 or '93 and said they wouldn't release an album until world peace was declared.

They didn't really keep that promise, but their next release was "K Cera Cera (War Is Over If You Want It)" in 1993, released exclusively in Israel and Palestine after the peace deal between Israel and the PLO.

I got into self hosting a while back

EOL enterprise equipment can be very thrifty. But if you ever need something specialty that isn't available in the second hand market, good luck.

Do Thinkpads count?

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

My hobby costs nothing after that initial ten years and a total of $10k investment in classes & equipment. Now with my own gear I can do it anytime, anywhere in favorable weather plus expending a shit-ton of physical exertion.

...the suspense is killing me! What is it?
