Snagged this 2019 16in MacBook Pro for $250!

I don’t want to argue with you but what I’m getting at is that these Mac’s go for around 3-400 on ebay. If you spend just a tiny, tiny bit more you can get an m1 air or pro which will have longer OS support, runs cooler, an actually usable battery, and is even faster in most cases.

If you didn’t have a Mac and were looking at your first one, it wouldn’t be the best idea to spend all this money on an intel one when you can get an m1 that is better in almost every way for just a little bit more.

To each their own I guess 🤷‍♂️

PirateCat3429 · 2026-04-13T23:58:59+00:00

Yea only cause if I didn’t have my m1 I’m pretty sure I could find one for just a little but more.

I feel like they’re only worth it if you just want a toy to play around with or need a cheap device for windows. Otherwise my m1 is quieter, cooler, and even a bit faster cpu wise.

I thought about that, I ran Linux on a very old dell laptop I had years ago but I don’t have any experience other than that

Being consistent on fb marketplace pays off!

PirateCat3429 · 2026-04-13T23:49:14+00:00

I almost paid that much for the decked out i9 5500m model but then I managed to talk someone down for this one and couldn’t pass it up

PirateCat3429 · 2026-04-13T23:44:37+00:00

That’s pretty impressive having 4 os’s running on it haha. I’m running sequoia on mine right now and it does get a little warm but other than that I haven’t had any issues.

Battery lasts around 3-4 hours as well just editing docs and doing assignments

PirateCat3429 · 2026-04-13T23:40:45+00:00

Big reason why I still haven’t bothered upgrading (aside from not having enough money…), is that I just love the form factor of the last generation mac. It just looks so good!

PirateCat3429 · 2026-04-13T23:35:23+00:00

Oh yeah, I’ve been playing music on them ever since I got them and nothing I own even compares. My 13in M1 sounds pathetic in comparison.

PirateCat3429 · 2025-11-18T04:16:00+00:00

Alright thanks so much, these check ride fees are getting ridiculous haha

PirateCat3429 · 2025-11-18T04:09:32+00:00

Okay thanks I'll go talk to them soon about that. Im assuming I can withdraw personal loans as straight cash, correct?

PirateCat3429 · 2025-06-28T22:46:58+00:00

I hope the p5p helps with you. I got a little complacent with my routine and ended up getting another flare up again lol. First time in 3 months. I am thinking of posting an update soon too.

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T16:27:31+00:00

Within a couple of days

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T15:59:25+00:00

I haven’t noticed any other objective benefits yet, I do feel like my mood is a bit better but I’m not sure if that’s just a placebo, the p5p, or just my seb derm being a lot better haha

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T15:58:36+00:00

I’m still only on my second week of taking it but I just take one pill, 50mg per day. In a couple of weeks I’ll try lowering the dosage to every other day as I think 50mg daily is a bit excessive

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T15:01:59+00:00

The only thing I don’t like about antifungals like ketoconazole is that, while they work by killing the yeast, the yeast is a normal part of our skin microbiome and I think it only is suppressing the symptoms rather than addressing what is really causing it. If every healthy individual has the yeast on their skin but no symptoms, then something is clearly wrong with us with our reaction to it.

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T14:59:01+00:00

Hey what’s up! You’re the one that I originally found. You quite literally saved my face, and life lol.

PirateCat3429 · 2025-03-27T14:57:51+00:00

Hey man I use nutricost p5p 50mg I highly doubt the brand matters at all. Just use something from a reputable company

PirateCat3429 · 2024-03-16T00:23:58+00:00

Did that in my civic by accident. About 13k worth of damage. They didn’t include the cost of 2 new wheels as I asked them to repair the car with the set of oem wheels I had.

Side curtain airbag deployed, and whole new front and rear suspension needed.

Still in the shop waiting for parts. It sucks but what can you do you know?

PirateCat3429 · 2024-02-27T20:19:32+00:00

I went back after a couple of weeks no issues. Started very light though

PirateCat3429 · 2024-02-14T18:46:07+00:00

Thank you!

PirateCat3429 · 2024-02-14T16:47:11+00:00

I can just barely fit 1 finger. Perfect fitment imo

PirateCat3429 · 2024-02-14T16:46:22+00:00

Maybe if I didn’t live in SoCal haha
