    Shit, all the Zen 5 AMD CPUs are out of stock or back order from New Egg =(

    Looked up all the parts from the Maingear pre-made ( and I swapped some they allowed, like the cpu and power). $2500 ordered separately and built at home or $3200 ordered ready to go. Big delta.

    This is fantastic information, thank you. I'll dig deeper into these topics this weekend and look up all of my options for longevity, then make the call. I think I'm leaning towards future-proofing options rather than a brick wall today. Even at a $400-$500 gap it would be worth the better...

    I appreciate this insight. I'll admit I don't know all the terms you mentioned, nor all the impacts that might have on what I'm doing, or how I'll upgrade the machine over time. But, I think context on my end might be helpful as well. I'm not going to be using this new computer - or expecting it...

    I've been out of the "know" for a while. I didn't have any idea Intel is in trouble. What's the context of that? @Jovec This one seems to be comparable; Navigator Elite | Prebuilt Gaming PC | Starforge Systems

    Looking at some pre-mades for ease of use and limited time. Thinking of the two below. The Maingear seems the better deal, but honestly I'm so ignorant these days on hardware specs that just because the numbers are bigger, I'm not sure if that's better? Looking to be under $3,000 for the...

    Neighbors are on day 4 of demo-ing their driveway. I'm pretty tired of hearing jackhammers now.

    Grand Theft Auto VI

    Not sure this GTA is for me, like past ones were. A love story holds no interest for me in this sort of game and the vibe of the audience is “teen gangster Dindu” which I’m not.

    Wills and Estate Planning....

    I second this. Impartial third parties are almost always cleaner and safer. Wills are cheap ( under a grand) and trusts usually aren’t necessary unless you have complicated assets or beneficiaries. Or, you’re over the estate tax exemption limit.

    Wills and Estate Planning....

    Only 43, but I often act crankier than my peers. I do estate plans for a living (in Texas like you) and am happy to refer you to a few different law firms so you can feel it out.

    Wills and Estate Planning....

    Better off having a law firm be an impartial third party. And firms (companies) generally out live people.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Do they? Never looked. But, I also don't live in a city where a small vehicle makes sense.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    150 from the OEM means 120 real world. 250 estimate means 200 real works. Immediately take 20% the OEM estimates for range and you're there (except Tesla, who can hit 85-90% sometimes). Its pretty trash mileage unless you really only live, work, and commute in a small radius. Same size/cost ICE...

    It’s way more nuanced than that, which is super fucking annoying and cringey, but those two OEMs are in a position of power to control their markets.

    No, anyone can buy a Lambo unless it’s they’re limited models of 3-10, which they rarely do.

    Home Improvement

    I can't find a carpenter to finish my library. All I need him to do is wainscoting, one wall of floor-to-ceiling book shelves, and 2 French doors. The market is a pain in ass right now. That's just one room. You're building a whole house, minus the foundation, framing, and roof.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I sent that link to my Porsche tech and he said those older V8s don't do well at higher mileage. I'd say 157k is high. Have a friend who got a Trans Siberian Cayenne and its badass, but its a diesel which is a bit better on the not blowing up part.

    Lots of hours required in specific series on specific tracks to get enough points for a Super License. Yes, that’s what they call it lol

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Formula 2. Follows F1 around the world and it races the same tracks (mostly) the day before. Below that is Formula 3 and the other feeder series for younger kids. Definitely not a lot of space in that world.
