Saw a YouTube video yesterday of a sim racer hobbiest that spent upwards of $700+ on literally just a wheel, shifter, petals, etc. Like not even the seat or computer or monitor or anything. Literally JUST the wheel parts.

Which is crazy but I have no way to complain as I’ve spent like 1,000 on my computer setup at least even excluding the actual PC.

Then there’s Steam…

* note I bought 2 steamdecks in that time and my account is like 4 years old

Honestly I fear Vance more than trump. He’s young and sneaky.

DONT use the “I Don’t Care About Cookies” plugin. It was sold to Avast. The same company that stole users information and sold it ON A PRIVACY PRODUCT illegally for years causing them to get sued for 16 million. (slap on the wrist tbh)

because modern online articles are filled with 800+ words of literally no meaning other than getting the viewer to see the 2,000 ads plastered on the website

Edit, Lemmy formatting killed it, here’s what it was supposed to be.
