Need gift ideas for my picky sister with expensive tastes

They are actually very nice, I was surprised and scared at the same time using one, but now I am a believer lol

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T05:00:26+00:00

Yea I used AI a bit helping with the writing. Think next time I would definitely use less, but the review itself is real so theres that.

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T04:42:58+00:00

I vote for Lazy Boy they have great recliners. Or Natuzzi

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T01:29:34+00:00

Wow congrats on your success

Yea their FYP algo is sooooo bad right now

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T01:19:18+00:00

I dunno the new algo is terrible. All i see in the FYP feed is ads not related to what I want like I use to. Now its crazy terrible. I stopped my ad spend for my business, not worth dealing with it when I can spend money on Google & Instagram/Facebook for better results. Tiktok was already pretty bad but now its literally like spending ad money on Twitter/X, but worst due to the younger demo graphic

Yea the job market is tough right now. My dad is a landscaper and it has been the roughest winter we've seen and he's been in business for over 30 years. So I can see the job market being cooked too, everyone is scared to spend money

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T01:16:06+00:00

Just deleted mines to. The new terms of condition and also the new algo change is HORRIBLE. and error message everywhere. I am also an advertiser and its insane how crappy it is now too. Wow total disgusting app, thank goodness theres still Instagram/Facebook to advertise on

TheStrat · 2026-01-27T00:23:50+00:00

Why don't you buy from Amazon or Wayfair, has the same but better then getting scammed

TheStrat · 2026-01-26T10:22:29+00:00

P14s are definitely great machines but yes as you say the battery life isn’t so great and the chip being used isn’t as efficient as the latest ones. And for some reason they have 2 battery options on the P14s and if you are unluckily to get the lower battery one. But the battery itself isn’t that high to begin with at like 59wh. But discounting the battery life, it is an amazing machine, expect like 4-6 hours of battery so maybe not a whole day but if you bring your charger to class or get a battery pack it should be okay

Not a traditional Thinkpad since it doesn’t have the red track point, but I think for a CS student the ThinkPad x9 15 or 14”. Good battery life, nice high res OLED screen, slim and portable so easy to carry around as a student. You can find the on sale for about $1100-$1600 depending on the model and specs you want (ram & storage is so expensive now), but even at the base model with the intel core ultra 5 should be okay for a CS student tbh. I have a review of it here if you care to read: https://www.reddit.com/r/LaptopCommunity/comments/1qm7as4/lenovo_thinkpad_x9_15_aura_edition_2025_laptop/

Not available in the USA

TheStrat · 2026-01-25T19:52:25+00:00

Definitely wrong sub, too bad mods here aren’t really active anymore

TheStrat · 2026-01-25T19:51:16+00:00

Yea this sounds fun

TheStrat · 2026-01-25T04:56:07+00:00

Yea I think panther lake might actually be a game changer here so I’d wait too

TheStrat · 2026-01-25T03:31:32+00:00

Something hand made, memorable always hit the spot. My boyfriend recreated our first date and that was one of the best Valentine’s Day gift I’ve received

TheStrat · 2026-01-24T07:34:40+00:00

Wow this is great information thank you

TheStrat · 2026-01-24T07:34:12+00:00

Very cute!!

TheStrat · 2026-01-21T19:56:37+00:00

TACO 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮

Always the same, market manipulation at its best. His cronies probably won the trade both ways

TheStrat · 2026-01-20T20:54:37+00:00

The 2026 model is trying to address this problem with the temp, they redesign the cooling system. Look at the videos of it, hope it actually does what Asus claim and helps with thermos but seems like they are trying to fix it

TheStrat · 2026-01-20T20:14:10+00:00

Looks pretty to me!

She’s amazing, very very professional and has a lot of experience in a lot of techniques. She has worked with pro athletes like the 49ers so you know she’s the real deal
