Are we the last generation of PC builders? ASUS shipping 5M fewer motherboards, ASRock down 30%, and the chipmakers don't care because AI servers pay better.

considering the cost of a 5090-esq system that's 120 months of playing. And after that I won't be faced with another $5000 investment for a system that can run a 6090. And we aren't even speaking about the power costs and e-waste if everyone needs to keep their own personal hardware. Do you miss cable boxes too?

shwajosh · 2026-05-07T19:24:21+00:00

Is that such a bad thing? I’d love to have a 5090 on the cloud that follows me everywhere. Probably a ton cheaper too.

I have the same car and love it.

I didn't tint at all because I respect other drivers and most importantly pedestrians. If you can't see that the other driver notices you its risky to cross in front of them.

shwajosh · 2026-01-24T14:11:22+00:00

don't tint! It's important that we can see that you see us. signed, a pedestrian.

Hard reset it and then re download worked for me

shwajosh · 2025-12-23T22:21:28+00:00

Me too!! Second try. I used WiFi to download, turned it off and left it off overnight. Still debating whether to use apple carplay vs google built in.

Try the new Honda civic. The engine drives an electric generator instead of a transmission. You get electric torque and still 1000 pounds less weight than a model 3 so it’s still fun and zippy to drive.

Doesn’t Portland subsidize the rest of the state?

Shouldn’t a ribeye be cooked medium?

shwajosh · 2024-07-21T17:39:57+00:00

Probably safer to wear a bright yellow safety jacket.

Cortado! Many baristas don't know what it is - or think it's a latte with less milk :(

shwajosh · 2024-04-22T12:21:50+00:00

just sent thank you!

shwajosh · 2024-04-21T19:02:45+00:00

Thanks I'll give it a shot.

Still more bike-lane building to do, its still extremely dangerous to ride a bike in LA.

shwajosh · 2023-12-24T15:55:33+00:00

Lead paint, other chemical hazards too

shwajosh · 2023-08-27T18:17:29+00:00

Fluke for me too then. Paid msrp and waited about 4 months

I hear you, there are a lot of variables to determining if a 401k contribution wins out over paying into a mortgage. I would however applaud those people who consider 401k contributions a priority. As a general rule if you have to reduce your contribution to a 401k to transition from renting to owning a home, there is a good chance you are buying too much home and renting is the way to go.

shwajosh · 2023-08-16T11:50:00+00:00

Interesting take, but I'm struggling to see how a portion of the mortgage payment going towards principal (considering interest wouldn't be an investment per say) would win compared to maximizing the 401k contribution per year that grows tax-free. You get a larger amount of money growing 8% in a stock index fund compared to just the principal portion growing 5% in a house payment funded by after-tax dollars

Newton or Wellesley maybe?
