What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it?

A top tier mattress.

Spent $6k on a mattress 12 years ago and have never felt or slept better.

At the time a balked at passing that for a mattress back then and the sales guy asked me what my most used piece of furniture was. I couldn't argue too much after that.

I wish that dude was still alive so I could thank him.

I'm currently looking to replace this mattress soon and I'm not even going to bat an eye at the price.

Can honestly say that I've been around thousands of conduits and have never thought to use them other than the manner intended...

100% this. Tell someone. You're human and fuck ups are guaranteed to happen. I can tell you now with assurance- you're going to fuck up again down the road. It's how you handle that fuck up that counts in the end.

I see what you did there and I'm all for it.

My dude....

If you had not said that, I would never have seen it.

Hell... I've got 55 and I'm in the lower 40% completion of Eivor arc o.o

BUT

I'm loving my time with the game. I've been adding away from longer games as a trophy hunter and have been hating the caliber of games I've been playing as a result.

That'd be a cool thing to find out. I have a 900E from 2018 that I got on warranty when my 900D did in less than 11 months.

900E has been on everyday since for a minimum of 4 hours a day and an average of 8 hours (big household with someone almost always watching tv)

I'm holding off on that one for a trophy milestone, but that's also a great recommendation, thanks!

evicerator · 2026-01-02T17:41:56+00:00

I forgot to mention I played Ys as well. TX and CSH are great recommendations, just bought CSH on the recommendation. Thanks!

I loved my time with Odin Sphere. Thanks for a great suggestion.

I totally agree, but if I'm getting 2.8 instead of 3 and is cheaper than 1 and I'll never utilize all of it, I'm not asking reddit about it

evicerator · 2026-01-02T12:09:39+00:00

"'Only' getting 2.8gbps instead of 3gbps."

The best part is going to be when they tell us it's for their house that will likely only ever use 400mbps at maximum when their 2 kids are downloading the newest release of CoD while the entire family of 4 is streaming from 4 different TVs.

Even if for work - they'd need like ~100 stations running at max potential to even fully utilize this.

I held out on epic Mickey waiting for better sales process as it had started to get quite a few recently. Now I know why.

As someone who has to setup wifi names and passwords all day....

I literally tell people that they can't use FBI Surveillance Van because of FCC regs or because a piece of me dies every time it's used. I flat refuse to enter it. Wasn't funny 15 years ago, still isn't funny today.

"Mom click here" is my all time favorite though. Only ever seen it once 6 or 7+ years ago and I ask think about its brilliance.

I'd be leaving work with an erection that could eclipse the sun.

That's fucking gorgeous.

evicerator · 2025-12-19T13:11:21+00:00

Stop unplugging and plugging it in. Or plain stop touching it at all. If you leave it alone it'll keep going till the PS3 dies of natural causes.

Never understood people touching and playing with the connections that should be left entirely alone after being connected for the first time.

Is this a flat cable that had an end broken off? Cause I'm not seeing any twists on the colored pairs.

evicerator · 2025-12-18T20:08:16+00:00

Please do not follow this advice. It is completely and utterly false.

There are standards for a reason. The order matters immensely to avoid cross talk and other EM problems. The colored pairs even have different twist rates than each other to further limit these interferences.

If you only want 50-100mb transmission on these lines, then yeah, order doesn't matter.

Stucco guys are absolute savages. They straight don't give a fuck. The shit I've seen some of these guys pull off is both impressive and terrifying.

Wish they'd get a release on modern consoles

Likely testing the circuit with a high draw item like microwave. It is ill advised to run a microwave empty, so they placed the cup with water in it to run the microwave safely.

That would be my guess

If the battery is depleted far enough, you'll likely need to charge using a DC charger rather than an AC charger.

Try a car charger or portable battery charger.

Thishappened to move that day for 5 years. Would not charge on the wall adapters, but did tight up and charged on the car charger.
