Me who finds really cheap eBay hardware:
Me who digs stuff out of e-waste bins in office building parking garages.
I watched my father go this way and I shan’t let it happen to me! I’ve bought a motorcycle like a normal fat, middle-aged man.
I hate this meme and yes absolutely
I mean… Cars suck…
Some of these cases are so expensive. I am wanting a Super Micro CSE-836 style case to upgrade my NAS and I have an eBay alert I set a few years ago when I couldn’t quite justify spending the money. Turns out I should have because even used the prices are going up and up.
Hmm which depreciates faster?
That’s not mid-life, that’s entire-life.
A super fast car is a toy, fast electronics are useful tools.
Sure, but from some point up enterprise-class tech stops making sense for home use.
A super fast car is a tool to make me happier. Not that I’ll ever be able to afford one.
The Miata and the BRZ/GR86 aren’t fast though.
Por qué no los dos?
Opportunity cost
at least a home lab can do things. people who’s entire social life and personality are dedicated to internal combustion bullshit are depressing. vrroooom vroom vroooooom is not a replacement for actually having a life.
You DON’T unDerSTAND I must go vrrroom vrrroom on city streets regardless of pedestrian safety or my wife will remember my dick doesn’t work.
the wife left him years ago lol…
It’s not a midlife crisis!
I actually desperately need this, my current server’s just not specced right for the 2 dozen VM’s I still want to add.VM’s I still
So each VM has their own iStill? That’s a new $2ooo gadget from apple?
Not sure I’m parsing the apostrophe correctly. They’re still not for pluralization EVER, right?
when pluralizing an acronym you add an apostroph
makes same sound
Gento fans go brrrrr
Is it really a midlife crisis when you’re just buying the toys you ways wanted because you can finally afford it?
I built a ridiculous computer with RGB everything a few months back… It’s dumb as hell but I always wanted one and at this point why not?
Sorta. But I think the problematic part of a midlife crisis is the irresponsible reckless behavior (say unaccounted for big expenses) that affect the people around you. If you’re not doing that then pop off, have fun, life is short!!
Why not both? My homelab supports car related activities.
Probably why I don’t have the Porsche though.
Mid-life crisis? I’m in my mid-20s!
Who’s gonna tell him?
