@envgen well, I used to have 5 jobs and I was paid about 95% of what someone in mcdonalds gets

@envgen not the paying part, to be clear
I used to build PCs for a living

@envgen I'll do it

@envgen a lot of power supplies market themselves on being silent an you can get an idea about how honest they're being from the reviews

@envgen sleeper is a term from car modding that made it into pc modding. it means having good parts in an ugly old box

@envgen make a sleeper pc with goid parts inside a dell case from 1999

@envgen yeah they kinda just did nothing for a few years then they fundamentally changed how CPUs are even manufactured

@envgen intel physically cannot manufacture anything resembling a ryzrn 3000. their processes are too archaic and expensive

@envgen better for productivity, cheaper and less power intensive; less vulnerable to attacks like meltdown and specter. intel is complacent and their 2020 plan ( no joke) is to pay people to lie about their products being better and bribe OEMs to use intel over AMD

@envgen laptops are very expensive for the parts you can get in them.
for productivity youll likely want a ryzen 3000-based desktop system. i can help you with parts if you have a budget in mind.
if you really want portability you can get a cheapo thin and light and use anydesk to access your newly upgraded desktop over the internet. if you really want a laptop youre looking at 150-200% of the price for the same parts

@mogwai_poet i wouldn't doubt it

@mogwai_poet hi! former "blockchain technician" here. that would be unuseable because games are gigantic and blockchains are hideously slow and necessarily orders of magnitude more storage intensive than a normal database. blockchain is good for almost nothing at all

@pup_hime more useable inputs sensibly placed is always good for everyone all the time forever

@pup_hime consoles should have paddles as standard- reprogrammable or otherwise; for no other reason than using wasted space on the controller and giving more accessible controls to anyone playing a game requiring stick aiming
