- Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
MediaMarkt and Saturn (our largest electronics retailers) first merged then were bought up by JD.com (chinese retailer)
Any other shop is a small chain/one-man-army type of shop which usually don’t have what I need :/Recently discovered a decent camera shop by coincidence while traveling :) That was cool.
They are both physical and online. And they werent pushy about their products. Which is great! - Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
May be.
Didnt know wages became affordable as well.This aint the US where you don’t pay for the social safety net :)
Also I’m not into sweatshop products if it can be avoided. - Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
Like what? 2x the price for worse hardware?
Feels like the only alternative for reasonable priced stuff is AliExpress (in regards to electronics) - Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
Exactly my philosophy.
I try to buy in this order (time and money is of no concern):
Local shops -> domestic Online shops -> AliExpress (electronics) or Amazon (branded electronics like storage) -> Amazon (anything else).If it aint available for a decent price and I don’t need it, I won’t buy it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
If it holds up longer, start by divind it by each year you use it daily for.
Once break even, determine if it’s still too expensive .
Buy cheap, buy twice.
Buy decent, buy once (for longer time). - Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
Difference is the quality.
The listed item may break after 10 months or is not comfortable.
Meanwhipe this holds up for >5 years and feels very good.You pay for actual wages, quality assurance and not being subject to cancerous dyes they use over there without preparing them.
I will never buy anything plastic on Amazon or AliExpress that will enter my body.
- Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
I have a few local electronic shops.
It’s just that they dont have what I need or are way more expensive.It is almost impossible to buy RAM or a CPU in person outside of specialty shops.
SSDs or HDDs are only available in low capacity (<2TB) and/or low spec (M.2 Gen3).Nothing of use for an enthusiast.
The only worth they have to me are as a appliance seller (e.g. TVs, household appliance, general use audio equipment) - Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 1 month ago:
More expensive AliExpress…
It feels like Amazon is flooded with dropshipping beyond repair. - Comment on Apparently, all YouTube Rewinds have been unlisted as of today. 1 month ago:

- Comment on After Apple originally announced the first version of Halo in 1999, Xbox apparently called Bungie and said "'Steve Jobs can't have that. We're going to buy you.'" 1 month ago:
I could see myself running a MacMini M anything.
But my issues with Apple:
- I don’t like their philosophy in hardware
- I don’t like needing to bow to their design/handling of any setting (e.g. accepting that the color of a menu can only be X but not Y)
- The hardware can never be upgraded.
At work I would only mildly care. But home pc? Nope.
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 2 months ago:
Well…
I could also set my own resolution with the config files (rocket league at last at the time allowed it) or I also could set my own resolution in my gpu driver.So what’s the issue then?
For example, I can’t choose an ultrawide 1080p resolution in Cyberpunk2077.
Any game usually let’s me set the usual values (like 1920x1080, 1280x720, 4:3 resolutions, 16:10 resolutions, etc etc). So why not let me choose the custom resolution of 2560x1080p ??? - Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 2 months ago:
