    Don’t believe capitalism’s empty promise of finding happiness in mindless consumerism <3

      But also stop feeling guilty because you’re underpaid and consumer goods are overpriced.

      Find joy in life where you can. Look for opportunities to share that joy with others.

        Feeling guilty for spending money sucks so much. Sure, a reusable water bottle without microplastics and whatnot is a great investment, but if I had just kept reusing plastic bottles, I could’ve saved money, and that money might’ve been useful elsewhere. I’m happy I bought the bottle, but it took me a long time to convince myself to do it.

          My 1060 6gb still rocks 99% of games at max settings. It’s just a struggle to get Cyberpunk to hit 60fps in 1080p and games that use RT that it has trouble with.

          I gave myself a treat and buyed a used 1070ti last month. Before a had the same 960 for like 8 years.

          I thought I made a mistake buying a 2070, but then covid shortages and machine learning chips in the card made it worthwhile. With major warfare on the horizon, now might also be a good time to get one. If Taiwan gets invaded, it might be impossible to upgrade for a while.

            Right!?! Getting a GPU just before prices went nuts was good timing. I also got a nice used car just before used cars went insane mid-covid (certified pre-owned luxury was a good deal for a lot of car for me).

            I’m definitely gonna look into a new GPU within the next month or two now that you mention that aspect. 2080 TI ain’t quite holding up to newer games at 4K

              I’m more interested in getting a new cpu, as I still have 1080p monitors (I’m broke and don’t care about graphics much at this point)
