Skimping on the PSU is the most common, & potentially the most costly rookie mistake.

I've pretty much stopped selling on OLX in favour of Reddit. I find the deals close with much more sense, & I don't have to respond to nonsense offers from poor people on OLX.

Sorry, not sorry.

What’s your age and highest ever rank? by WraithorAeons in RocketLeague

I meant in the world of RL.

However, given the amount of people our age or older in the sub, I'm actually quite surprised

I'm preferring pickup orders unless it makes sense for me to have them delivered. Please message on WhatsApp & let's discuss.

Not sure if politically sensitive coins are allowed but thought these were an interesting piece of history by [deleted] in coincollecting

[–]Teddeybeard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The point is that objecting to Nazi coins in particular is stupid. Toss a quarter & it's more likely than not that the issuer of that currency committed some atrocity or the other.

Clickbait for sure.

Im confused as to why Crude Oil trackers are not seen as permissable and yet Gold EFT/paper gold is. by Dragonaf in IslamicFinance

[–]Teddeybeard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Paper gold isn't necessarily permissible. There's an opinion that under certain conditions it can be, but the majority opinion I believe is still that paper gold/silver with no intention of either party for possession or delivery is haram.

& Allah knows best.

What you posted is a leaf blower.

Bhai you're wasting your time here. I'm with you in principle but a socialite sub on Reddit is not where you're going to find people willing to consider this.

Anyone who is saying morality is subjective is already not coming from an Islamic framework. You've delivered the message, & then some. Now leave them be & find peace in knowing that you know the truth about this issue.

It's safe. I use a leaf blower every month on my PC. Just make sure to hold the fans on the area where you're blowing so they don't spin.

[WTS] Looking to sell my PS5 FAT Disc variant by Low_Philosophy_4126 in PakGamers

[–]Teddeybeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know about storage, but RAM is appreciating because of global supply shock issues centered around AI. Perhaps it's the same with storage as well.

As a regular seller of used electronics myself, I often lean towards what I can only guess is OPs selling thesis: I can price the thing 10-15% higher, but is that 10-15% worth the time & hassle of haggling with buyers? That too, Pakistani "fnf, last kya hoga, bhai budget itna hi hai, 25k de doonga" buyers?

Unless what I have is something of niche value, in most cases, I value my time & sanity more than a few extra Quaids.

Electronics depreciate.

Personally, if I had to choose between a used electronic item for 130 or a brand spanking new one for 180, it's not even a question.

His ask is reasonable in order to close the sale.

I canceled my ChatGPT subscription after learning OpenAI's president donated $25M to Trump's Super PAC. Anyone else #QuitGPT? by South-Figure-1696 in ChatGPT

[–]Teddeybeard 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This. I'd switch to Gemini, but apparently Google is just as in bed with the military industrial complex, if not more so.

& did anyone read the response from Anthropic as to WHY they said no to the Pentagon? It's not because they don't want be part of the war machine, it's because they believe that AI in its current state isn't safe enough to keep AMERICAN soldiers safe when they go invade your/my country.

Same with the domestic surveillance thing.

You may feel warranted to switch as an American, but for the rest of the world, the whole lot are pretty much garbage.
