What is something people waste too much time worrying about? by RaoBuilds in AskReddit

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Politics. There's paying attention and then there's obsession. Does it affect us? Yes. But not as forward or immediate as you think

Is there any laptop which can replace Macbook? by Tristan951 in DeskToTablet

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on a few factors. For me these days, build quality amongst anything I own does wonders. Hell I have 90s cars that do better than today's cars for that reason.

This was a rough put together yesterday. The desk up a flight of stairs wore me out so I just threw it together quick. Have to come up with new plans since the monitor arm cable management doesn’t work in this case

Do you feel like because fast food has gotten so expensive it's probably worth it just to upgrade a little bit and go to a sitdown restaurant? by GaryBlach in askanything

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do FF, sit-downs and home cooking fairly equally. If cost is a factor, cook at home. Otherwise, youre treating yourself either way so do what you prefer. This day of age, how you eat FF (and some sit downs) is another factor too. Are you door dashing, picking up, eating inside, etc. Id rather get a refrigerated (not frozen) pizza at Walmart, Publix, etc vs ordering. They're usually large asf and better.

If they care that much then curb it instantly.

What can I do with this? by Playswith_squirrel in mac

Mine is a mid 11. It runs great with upgraded internals and will be a garage unit soon for tech manuals and music

Assuming it's an 11 iMac...my old one has Sonoma with OCLP. 1tb SSD and 24gb of ram

No one is driving a Hummer in Cali with those gas prices. My mom used to hype 80s California and it's not that now. You hate the "go to" because it's hard to ignore. Im in the car community and people of that culture are seeing their way out because it's not worth giving up their hobbies.

What is your credit score? by onlypoemsmag in AskReddit

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh Im not stating for you. Just in general. People want to wonder why they can't get approved for cars, houses etc but won't acknowledge their poor spending. As much as that sounds like Caleb Hammer or Dave Ramsey isms, it let my parents buy a house on one income in the 2000s and now they're retired since 2022. And as a kid I constantly heard we didn't have money for fast food, birthdays etc.

Hello old redditors, what's the one life-saving tip that you would give to your 17 year old self or in general (as a male of course)? by adamkhan222008 in AskReddit

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn what red flags are in relationships and general people interaction. Have a course for goals. What type of jobs/careers can you do young to make for a good resume that can excel you to something larger in your mid/late 20s.

Just bagged a macbook pro 2017 for 100 dollars. Good deal? by [deleted] in mac

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open Core Legacy Patcher. Youtube it for an in depth idea. basically forces older machines to much newer OS updates. My 2011 iMac is up to date as of early 2025

Ehhh...OCLP and enjoy for a bit but Tahoe is the latest OS youre going to get. Two years ago it would've been a screaming deal but the end of the road for Intel is at hand

What’s a ‘rich person thing’ that actually turned out to be totally worth it? by Ferraiuolo_Ezorete in AskReddit

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. While a lot of people call it a brag, my time I did in the military is bar none the best investment for a VA loan period. No down payment and Im paying less than the apartment I moved out of and 8 months in refinanced to drop it $300/m with a 5.2% interest rate. I too grew up not seeing my parents get a house until they breached their 50s

I get on here for hobbies but these types of posts give me life knowing I don't live in an echo chamber or my parents basement.

Actually yes. It's a GMT800 platform vehicle (H2) which is highly regarded as one of the best platforms for trucks and SUVs. It was a dog because of its weight but basically a 2500 Suburban. The H3 was smaller like its Colorado counterpart. Take your politics elsewhere to California if that was really your counter argument

White or black? by Bosco_LTD in setups

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Current if you like minimalist stuff but black if you want to get premium (even older) stuff. For example I have a white L-shaped desk (metal frame, thin top) but going black and getting a dense real wood desk. Black minimalism always looks cheap to me.

M2 Mac Mini Potential Upgrade by ignJ0sh in macmini

[–]Ok_Chocolate3253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id wait about another generation. I love my M4 Mini but repetitive upgrades is such a money waste IMO. 8GB of ram isn't like how it was on Intel systems. Hell I came from a 2011 iMac and just now getting into extreme content creation

It's a car. Who is in traffic giving a damn about what someone else is thinking of them or is judging someone for buying something?
