  • It’s a long time ago, I don’t remember the specifics of the video, and probably didn’t like his video (partially) due to it being just another one jumping on the ltt screwdriver bandwagon, that sh*t was everywhere, I tend to block channels that have linus’s munted head in their thumbnails these days.

    I do remember jeff having a weird bunch of fans hanging off of his every word, I wondered who this guy was, and why he seemed so famous, but I had never heard of him. I have seen some of his videos since, he seems like a twat, unfortunately common in the pc tech space.




  • So he has ungoogled chromium, and floorp as top tier, uses them, but doesn’t see them as the best

    Then he has vivaldi, watefox, librewolf, and zen in 2nd tier, but they are the best ones?

    It’s like a tier list on reddit, someone just wanting to look at the pretty pictures while not making much sense

    Some obvious omissions too: firedragon, mullvad, tor, ddg














  • Get back to me when you need to replace your ram :P

    One of the reasons I went with AM4 was platform maturity, at the time AM5 was new (launched sept 2022).

    My prices are in aud btw (if you didn’t notice).

    Bigger number better is also not how I do things, and it isn’t the direction that tech should have moved.

    My choices of a 5700x and a 6800 (non xt) were very deliberate due to performance/efficiency. I could have easily gone to a x3d and a higher end graphics card.

    I have no regrets about what I chose, aside from I should have just gone with a b series board, and maybe a different case, I wanted a non glass case that could hold at least 3 hdd’s, and (at least in Australia) that was more difficult than it should have been, due ot silly people and their silly lights = glass sided cases being the norm. I ended up with a Be Quiet Silent Base 802, which is okay, but could be better, and could be smaller (I should have originally bought 2x 8,10, 02 12Tb hdd’s, instead of 3x 6Tb)
