if it weren’t for my family, I would have exactly zero of these subscriptions because I rarely watch anything.

I try to minimize my subscriptions because they are like vampires on my bank account.

most of the computers I have are a decade old at this point. Which…for what I do on them is perfectly fine. See no reason to waste money on anything newer.

This one’s an i7-2600…from 2011.

It took Amazon two tries to ship me a CPU fan that wasn’t broken. Thankfully I didn’t have to return the broken one…nor did I have to request yet another one.

And I now have things backing up to S3 again. Just in time to consolidate onto my VM servers that have been largely idle.

your sanity is worth way more than that.

I’m not technically Japanese so I probably can’t have one anyway 🤪

I guess 8-9 years of life for a CPU fan is alright. Sadly, it means buying another one. Fortunately they’re relatively cheap.
