That picture of him blowing Bubba is Putin's most prized possession.

Idk how anyone searches the internet anymore. Search engines all turn up so I ask an AI. Maybe one out of 20 times it turns up what I'm asking for better than a search engine. The rest of the time it runs me in circles that don't work and wastes hours. So then I go back to the search engine and find what I need buried 20 pages deep.

I used to a lot as a kid. It was pretty much the only way to get some more obscure games.

I pretty much stopped in the mid 2000s except for some collectors editions of games that I was 99% sure were going to be great Halo3, Fallout3, New Vegas etc. I still do the same thing now with the odd switch collectors edition xenoblade chronicles, the final fantasy pixel remasters, unicorn overlord but those were games I was 99% sure would be finished at launch.

The rest of the time I wait a year or so until the game is half priced and finished.

Who uses a sock? Cumrag or GTFO.

Wash once a week, replace as needed which is probably 10 years or so. Then they become dog towels.

Wealth the president dropped on us from a fighter jet?

I knew of Tesla and SpaceX and I'd vaguely heard of him but didn't really care so I wrote him off as another rich asshole immediately. Then I had some friends raving about him going to Mars and saving the world. I almost bought in but within a few weeks of that happening he called the guys who rescued the kids trapped in a cave a pedo just because he couldn't use his sub. That started my hatred of the man.

I just bought a used HP office computer basically for the 32 GB of DDR5 (only 5200 but I'll take it) on eBay. Just gonna throw a 9060xt in it for now. Combined its a sub 700 build. I'll probably swap it to a new mobo and case next year as the power supply is a little underspeccd and I believe the HP pinout is nonstandard. Maybe I'll just jam a flex PSU in there and pin the cables to match.

Check out the Superchunk cover of 100,000 fireflies.

I've been collecting vinyl for close to 20 years now. I didn't mean to but bands and labels were just trying to get rid of them in the mid 2000s so I got a dozen or so free records when preordering CDs. About half of them were not on any other format at the time so I got a record player.

So I mostly listen on that when at home or use volumio as a multi room playback system to stream off qobuz or from a local library on my NAS. I did get into cassettes during the pandemic and do find them rather entertaining.

Favorite band is easy, its Guided by Voices. As for why I can't really say except that they rock. You have to be able to see the brilliant uncut pop gems through the lofi tape hiss. Pretty much all their best stuff sounds like a first take demo tape.

He admitted he needs his teenage son to monitor his porn habits. Imagine what he doesn't admit to.

Look into volumio to make a whole home music streaming solution. You can buy various pi Hats to get better DACs than the internal pi one.
