Anyone else buy useless hardware?
I've bought hundreds of dollars in pure bullshit I don't need over the years just to mess with them for a few days or weeks, then not touch it for months on end.
Stuff I can think of off the top of my head:
>Multiple laptops salvaged from dumps, bought used, etc to install Linux on
>3 iPods, all rockboxed
>iHome + radio
>Fiio X1
>Clip+ rockboxed
>2 cheap android phones, rooted
>Blue Yeti mic
>Chromecast
>"Smart" alarm clock
>RGB lighting, never used
>3 different watches
>over 20 watch straps
>For each of them
>2 PSP's with multiple (shit) batteries and games (2nd one didn't have a working screen
>GPD Win
>2 3DSes and a DSi
>10, I type again, TEN PDA's from across the years
I feel like I'm drowning in useless shit I don't need

>Windows 10 was released 2 years ago
It's only 2 years old, and they have already paid hardware manufacturers not to support older versions anymore.
I know
if things were normal, we'd have Windows 11 by now
with cool new features or something. maybe a new user interface.
Wtf how is this possible

Idol trash approves of OP.
What's your setup like, Anon?
How do I mod my headphones to have more technical resolution?
>>61530463
I, like you, have audio gear with only .2 dB of deviation, which is inaudible to the human ear.
I need a laptop for 4 things: browsing internet, skype, downloading movies, and doing stuff for college like in MS Word or something.
Any recommendations?
Btw, I would like to spend less than $400.
you could get literally any laptop with what you want to do. as much as thinkpads are shilled here you can get a used x220\t420 for around 100$ and they work fine alog with being durable.
