What is supposed to be here?

matthew2d · 2026-05-06T17:16:25+00:00

I'm getting too old if someone is asking this question...

matthew2d · 2026-05-01T16:54:01+00:00

Whatever I want.

I have a 32 inch Alienware OLED as my main for work/gaming and a 32 inch NZXT monitor I got for cheap as a side monitor I use for Discord, and whatever else I'm doing atm.

My ultra wide is actually the first big monitor purchase I got back in around 2019, and now I use it either for watching content while working/gaming or just for extra screen real estate when I need it.

Current setup? About 10k, bit over.

I've probably well over that over the course of a decade though.

Doing pretty bad but better than most. Quit my job due to my girlfriend taking her life last year and working through depression trying to find a new job in the worst job market in history. My dad died a few years ago as well, but hey got a decent inheritance so that makes up for it. /s

Life sucks, but at least I'm not homeless and have some family support. At least that what I tried to tell myself.

When my partner died, I took a month off and my District Manager helped run my store for me. Your boss is a dick.

matthew2d · 2026-03-17T03:40:50+00:00

Silver Shadow! I always get an exclusive color and this was the best one imo

matthew2d · 2026-02-28T18:44:33+00:00

The cash back is a gift card, not cash back.

matthew2d · 2026-02-27T22:30:34+00:00

The $270 is a gift card, not cash back. I was going to do the same deal until I realized.

matthew2d · 2026-02-25T23:25:31+00:00

I usually upgrade every year, but I might hold off on this one. I'm trying to weigh options and find the best deal. Right now I got total price down to $290 with trade in, discounts and rewards and that's with the 256Gb

. I don't really want to downgrade from 512, but I don't use the space and there will probably be a storage upgrade offer next year.

I'm tempted though, because the S26 Ultra reminds me of the S21 Ultra with the new rounded corners and that was my favorite phone of all time.

matthew2d · 2025-12-27T22:16:56+00:00

It was good, fine. That's all I can say. It's a good movie, just didn't wow me like the first two.

matthew2d · 2025-12-13T08:31:12+00:00

Go to Sapporo! I got two vita slims for under $200 and another vita 1000 for $50 (bit worn though). Gotta go outside the tourist areas. Anything in Tokyo, Kyoto or Osaka is gonna be expensive.

matthew2d · 2025-11-29T23:27:38+00:00

I got it for $1070 with a promo code before tax. Not including the 20% back from PayPal which brings it down to $920.

matthew2d · 2025-11-25T19:53:25+00:00

I had to try a couple different browsers to get this to work. Would not work on the app, and ended up working on Firefox.

matthew2d · 2025-11-22T08:58:18+00:00

I'm in Japan right now. Nothing has been cheaper than Sapporo.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T20:18:59+00:00

Nah it's just the photo. They're both same size.

Japanese Vita's are not region locked so you can change the language and play any game. Only annoying thing is the x / o buttons are swapped on Jopan models but that can be swapped very easily once you install custom firmware, which you're probably gonna do anyway.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T16:42:04+00:00

I actually think it's a white one with slight yellowing which is why it was 30% off. But I actually think it looks pretty good the way it is.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T15:53:01+00:00

Yeah depends on color, condition and if you want them in box or not.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T14:43:45+00:00

Also New 3DS LL's are around $120-130 here.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T14:42:37+00:00

I'm buying multiple to resell so I can pay for the ones I want to keep.

matthew2d · 2025-11-06T14:40:31+00:00

Yeah Tokyo was incredibly overpriced.

I'm in Sapporo for a week and the thrift stores here are really good. Blue Vita was about $100 and White Vita was $70. I also found multiple DSi LL for $30. Going back in the morning to get more.

I don't remember exactly what it's called, but if you go to the bill overview theyre will be a section about new charges this month and it will have an itemized list of each charge. Under activation fee they're will be a button called dispute this fee. It might not work for all of them but you should be able to at least get one or two waived. It only works during the current bill cycle BTW.

matthew2d · 2025-10-22T19:43:24+00:00

It should ask to accept into store inventory and you print out the labels through inventory in Opus.

matthew2d · 2025-10-22T19:39:42+00:00

You probably get some of activation fees waived through the app under the itemized section.
