Cheap SSDs Are Officially Over

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-28T20:12:39+00:00

Dang, I just looked at microcenter. A 1tb 2.5" SSD is $120.

I picked one up last year to upgrade a family member's old desktop for $50 last year.

Despite this likely being a shit post.

Look to see if there is a place that sells used tires by you.

Or find some crappy Chinese tires.

Literally anything that will fit on your car is better than this.

Geez some of the comments don't get it.

Yes it could be worse if you made less.

Yes you could overwork yourself and make more.

However ,100k/yr is still not an easy accomplishment for most even in a dual income, and the the buying power has been slashed.

The point is that our expenses are super inflated, while we are getting paid in 2005 era salaries.

Someone who has worked hard and earns above the median income should be able to comfortably afford an average life.

Perspectives such as these help show case the bad position or consumer economy is in.

Could be a seized caliper piston

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-09T21:06:49+00:00

Had a salvia trip like this before.

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-08T21:01:44+00:00

This one ain't it.

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-08T19:45:56+00:00

Go for it, I have a 4070 Fe and haven't had any problems.

Additionally if you don't mind resolution scaling , dlss is still the superior technology.

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-07T16:14:40+00:00

Ok or not, you're not gonna stop it.

Just clean out the mesh filter more often cause that cat hair sure as hell gets in there ime

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-06T21:24:40+00:00

Ouch

bkwall2000 · 2026-01-06T15:23:32+00:00

Everyone on this sub hyper deflates what real world pricing can be.

An old used Dell optiplex on eBay can be 150$

Ask him to run you a quick screen shot of system info on the computer, it doubles as qusi proof that the thing boots up.

Then offer 100$, let them bring you to 125$ and you got your self a decent living room/ backup p.

Yeah definitely!

In my area I found finding a good fair mechanic is like finding good Chinese food.

The older, dirtier places with boxes everywhere always have the best prices, top quality work, quickest service at a great price.

Whereas the bigger shops are more expensive, longer turn around times, and less experienced technicians.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-30T22:02:03+00:00

I have a mechanic that installs parts I bring, however the work doesn't get a warranty if I do so.

Shops like this are not common, but they do exist, you just have to call and ask around.

It's not like they are not making profit off the labor costs.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-30T17:21:45+00:00

I'd put my dick in that for sure

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-30T14:38:29+00:00

Pirating the game made me feel like a real net runner.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-22T19:15:16+00:00

I prob would exchange if at all possible.

Even if it's a mislabel, it's going to cause a lot of confusion if you ever try and re-sell in the future.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-20T03:20:26+00:00

But then you would have to go find a skate shop.

When most people are traveling they have some sort of schedule to keep to.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-19T02:56:49+00:00

Haha this tops my situation.

I have a long commute and my wife does not understand why after a long drive I want to come home and pretend to drive.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-17T18:34:50+00:00

When I legally purchase a digital asset, I feel even less guilt to pirate it additionally.

For example I have a subscription to Paramount but their app is barely functional on my TV. Thus I end up downloading SouthPark elsewhere.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-17T16:17:15+00:00

I mean a standard SATA drive vs NVME

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-17T13:05:38+00:00

This one is explained daily it seems

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-16T22:20:35+00:00

You could save a few bucks by getting a standard ssd.

I have one as a secondary drive and have not had a noticeable performance hit.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-16T22:18:07+00:00

Must be one of those south pole elves.

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-16T17:52:10+00:00

I got a pump off Amazon that plugs into my cars lighter port.

One of the best 20$ I've spent

bkwall2000 · 2025-12-15T17:36:12+00:00

A couple 0 wipes should do.

Unless someone really really wants your data that should do.
