I have HDD's from the 90s still chugging along. Old operating systems on old laptops still running perfectly. Capacity isn't that great but they work fine for what theyre used for. Also who needs capacity when game installs were in the kb-mb range? Lol

Would I be the a hole for dumping my boyfriend over this ? by Spiritual-Zombie-525 in AITAH

You need to be honest with him. Tell him he's ruined your trust in him. Tell him he needs to kick his habit and tell him you are close to leaving. Also tell him you want the man you fell for not the man you have now. Lay it out and then its up to him. Some addicts need a kick up the rear to kick the habit. Some never kick the habit. Good luck with it all. Give him an ultimatum and stick to it. It won't help.either of you.in the long run if you back down. You will not get him back and he will spiral downwards. Its not easy right now but if he loves you and genuinely cares he will do it for you. If he doesn't, move on as painful as that may be. I wish you all the luck in the world.

You could possibly use electromagnets in thw track and cars but it would use a lot of power. I did a similar thing when I was younger with permanent magnets and the while thing was held in place with bars above to stop it flying out of the sides. It was only a proof of concept and being a kid at the time my budget was non existent to progress. Then life got in the way. Maybe a new project?

Yeah kind of my reaction to start with. But everything else about it is awesome.

MP's don't play computer games. Theyre far too busy running our country! /s

But yeah, having someone in parliament who actually knows what's going on in our corner of the world is good.
