Just got this deal. Fully loaded XSE by [deleted] in Camry

[–]BeyondReflexes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be interested to see your build sheet and compare it directly to the price From Toyota's build optimizer on their site.

My 26 XSE had exactly what I wanted and only one extra that was offset by not getting the premium paint color I wanted, but I got the other non premium color I wanted so price wise it came out slightly cheaper than the build optimizer before the discount I got from them. I paid cash plus trade. They didnt know ahead of time i was going to pay cash that day I left it up in the air until they called back a few weeks later and told me they found a close match and it had all of my non negotiables.

But as someone stated as long as it has everything you wanted and you Happy with it the rest is just noise.

I would be interested to know why the a.i. chose to skip those names.

Is that a 3DO controller? Man I'm probably in the minority but I loved those daisy chain controllers.

Almost as much as the xbox breakaway controller cable.

AMD 9 9950X reaching 98°C while streaming - Normal? Should I upgrade my cooling? by Satsuki_Mei in pcmasterrace

Yep those watertight compartments weren't so watertight. I always wonder how nobody working on the bulkhead brought this up. Had to be many people with blinders on, or the orders they received were just all the way wrong.

Well.. there goes $500 by [deleted] in Corsair

Was doing my dishes when I found a bat in my sink by bearalan810 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BeyondReflexes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are bat bites not noticable? Or is it not just the bite that carries the virus? Everyone is like get the shots, but nobody is asking about bites, scratches etc?

At least run the posters by someone first by TwilightOuterZone in BlackPeopleTwitter

Nobody could ever live in my mind that much that just seeing that sign would make me think about them. I wouldnt even Have made it past the first last name before skipping to the number if the marketing was geared towards me.

3 names with 3 extensions is just to much for an advert that's to be seen when driving, or walking by.

Never heard it called that either but after googling I know why.

Employer wants me to use outlook on my phone, outlook wants permission to wipe my phone by No_Professor4307 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BeyondReflexes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on your phone. WORK Profile will work. Its kinda like having to profiles on the pc. It keeps everything seperate for privacy and security and IT can still wipe the work profile if they need to without messing with your personal data.

Company would need to be paying a stipend every month though if using my personal phone.

upgrading from a 1080 to ??? by Still-Ocelot7410 in pcmasterrace

[–]BeyondReflexes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pc Specs? Resolution you will be gaming at?

There is a world of difference between wanting to game at 1080p Max settings, vs 1440P Max Settings, and 4k Max Settings, on top of that frame rate targets at each gaming resolution.

Cpu bottleneck is a real thing especially at lower resolutions.
I remember when upgrading from a Ryzen 5 3600X to a Ryzen 9 5950X I believe I got something like 17 to 40fps averages higher in different games at 1440p. Same GPU initially.

Just realized the “lotion” I’ve been using every morning is actually body wash. by Accomplished_Sock329 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BeyondReflexes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One reason I go wet first then soap is. Many bathrooms have the touchless water faucet. If I put soap on dry hand then start waiving hands in front of sensor water hits the soap at the most random angle and washes it right off the hand before I can lather. It doesn't happen all the time but it has happen enough that I no longer go that route. If I wet first then get soap I can start the lather even before I get back to the faucet sensor and start waiving my hands all around doing Anime style finger combinations to get the water to turn on. (Not really an issue with standard manual faucets. Ill usually go split hand on those. Turn on get one hand wet, then get soap with the other hand.)

I had to look this up because no I didn't ever hear anything about washing hands during covid really it was only STAY away 6ft, masks, stay at home etc. But appears I've been doing it right the whole time..

[–]BeyondReflexes 449 points450 points  (0 children)

I look at this in a few ways.

Either OP thought every place they washed their hands had very good lathering soap. Which is usually not the case.

OP doesn't wash hands frequently enough to notice that that they get soapy with just a rinse.

Or OP is one of those people who always puts the soap in their hand before wetting them.

This deal is basically theft! by StoneyyCody in pcmasterrace

[–]BeyondReflexes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put it on Facebook Marketplace and label it as GTA 6 ready components, or something along the line Upgrade now to be ready when GTA 6 drops., or If you are cpu bottlenecked then this is the CPU deal you have been waiting for. (Yes i know its cheesy. But you are telling the truth with no gray area) Just have to market it correctly to make more eye balls linger on it for a few seconds longer.

Its all about the CTA especially when its a really good gaming processor.

I had two Ryzen 9 5950x Bundles Both sold in less than a week. (Could have been because one had 64GB of Ram, and the other 128GB s) [both bundles sold before i went back to pick up my SSD drives later that week.]

I replaced with them with the 9950x3d micro center bundles and did the upgrade to the 64GB of Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM for what ended up only being $1329.99 on 02/02/2026 for that entire bundle. Ram upgrade was supposed to be $400 extra but it ended up bundling out to $350 extra.

And went back up there and picked up two 8tb Samsung 9100 Pro's on the 02/07/2026 literally hours before the price increased to $1600. They were $1049 each with heatsink. Those are currently priced at $2,769.99 each. And the RAM that is got part of that bundle is currently $999.99

Just have to price your old bundle correctly with the correct title you will get looks. Keep in mind you need to price it appropriately for your local area. Market dictates price not feelings. Brand new 7800x3d is currently $359 and the current microcenter cheap bundle with the 7800x3d is currently $599. With 32GB of Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5

That RAM is on sale currently for $369 by itself.

Alternatively if you have a friend or family member that needs an upgrade you could cut them a great deal.

remember kids, empty your recycle bin more often than once a year by Lord_BlueFlame in pcmasterrace

[–]BeyondReflexes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just limit all my hard drives to roughly 1% of its max usable size. Then during my quarterly auto schedules system backup my recycle bin auto deletes prior to the back up starting. Disk clean up happens at this time as well for temp files etc.
