I love saving money as a US expat in the UK!!!!! I love deciphering arcane tax laws to determine what I'm allowed to do and what will get me fucked!!!!! I love not being eligible for any of the good saving schemes!!!! I love researching weird options trading strategies just so I can hold ETFs!!!!!!

paid but the lowest tier

bought it around launch so it was £2499

severance now joining everything everywhere all at once in the category of "holy shit i didn't know things could be this fucking good"

i feel like gamers talk about optimization like its some magic switch you can flick that every studio is choosing to ignore

september but true…

my bio is so old here it said i’m 23 😭 i’m 25 now

same price as 4090? you may be right, i havent looked too much into it

the transformer dlss is absolutely the real deal, tested it on my display back with the 4070 ti and it made ultra perf actually playable. and yeah for 1440p 5090 is absurd overkill lol.

5080 looks pretty ehh in all honesty unless you absolutely need the 4x frame gen and smooth motion (later of which is actually kinda sick from testing) - both features may end up coming to 40 series anyway

it depends on your display tbh, the 5090 is really the only card that can power mine while also maxing out settings (as long as ur ok with dlss which i am). for the vast majority of people though i agree, its a pointless card lol.

😭😭😭

yep, i’m uk

got lucky on bonus and tax refund lol

this card is actually astonishing, actually makes having a 4K 240hz monitor worth it

hotstock app, gives me notifs if/when stock appears. considering it was from amazon i honestly expected a box of rocks though lol

sure but at least the search and queue management works

made it like 5 months tho so that’s pretty good

finally gave up on apple music and switched back to spotify, there’s still parts about it i prefer but good lord its search algorithm is the worst thing ever made and it still suffers from general clunkiness over spotify

bluesky

nuh uh

idk, guinness is generally regarded as the one good macro beer and i personally like the flavour. i think there are regional differences as well though, not sure if that affects things.

ofc tho it's not the best stout (though i don't really know stouts well, i'm mainly a pale ale/pilsner enjoyer)

honestly guinness is good though

and yeah i know it's because they're cheap but man at what cost

at the risk of sounding like a snob, i've always found it so bizarre that the most truly unpleasant, undrinkable beers are the most popular ones. wonder how many people say they "don't like beer" because they've only had like, carling or something.

many such cases!

i'm still trying to work out how to view your likes
