when i have questions like that i usually head for thewirecutter.com and see what they think. they're often wrong but it's a good starting point

i think lenovo thinkpads are still in vogue for cheap laptops as long as you take the time to blast all the crapware away asap

but yeah any laptop for less than 4 figgies is gonna be pretty ripe rear end

wirecutter’s kind of crap for certain things including computers imho. And their new site design is steaming dogshit

also here's one real weird thing about exercise: it simultaneously makes it easier to sleep AND gives you more energy.

humans simply did not evolve to sit on their rear end 90% of the time and doing so causes a cascade of effects on every part of your body and mind

Where the gently caress is the genetic engineering and badass cybernetic implants to fix this sort of bullshit???

i dont even know who yahtzee is, there just is a gigantic "pc master race" subreddit where people go arround laying "sick" burns and harrassing people for not joining in on the circlejerk, and all this "console peasant" and that logo shite is theirs

Yahtzee makes funny video game reviews for a website called escapist (he first posted some videos here and was close to being on the front page but lowtax couldn't pay him enough, lol)

in one of his reviews he made a joke about the pc gaming master race. that's it, just one joke poking fun at consoles.
