Because I’ve completely fucked up my phone after re-learning how to ride a bike, I bought
new phone, Xiaomi Redmi Note 9. I’ve previously had a Redmi 6A for almost 3 years, and was very satisfied with it, so I decided I will give Xiaomi another try. But after years it got old, and was very laggy and slow.
I’ve made sure to not happen it again, I bought glass for it and case.

After ten years with an Apple MacBook Air I purchased a new computer. I decided that I don’t want a Laptop again, because I want to play games again. And after so many years I can’t update my Laptop to the new operation system, so many important programs (especially for university) don’t work on it anymore.

So here it is, everything is new, the computer and the screen.

And that’s the data (I got it from a German website, so I don’t know if it’s all the same in English). I don’t know if it’s good or bad, something like that is like rocketscience for me :sweat_smile:

  • Processor : AMD Ryzen™ 5 3600 (6C / 12T, 3.6 / 4.2GHz, 3MB L2 / 32MB L3)
  • computer memory : 8GB DIMM DDR4
  • data storage : 512GB SSD M.2 2280 NVMe
  • video card : NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR6
  • Wi-Fi I think? : 11ac, 2x2 + BT5.0
  • connections : Front Ports 2x USB 3.1 Gen 1, 2x USB 3.1 Gen 2, 1x microphone (3.5mm), 1x headphone (3.5mm) / Rear Ports 2x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.1 Gen 1, 1x Ethernet (RJ-45), 1x microphone (3.5mm), 1x line-in (3.5mm), 1x line-out (3.5mm), 1x power connector
  • Audio : High Definition (HD) Audio, Realtek® ALC662 codec
  • operation system : Windows 10 Home

Nice! You should invest in a second 8gb memory stick and maybe a second, smaller SSD just for the OS to be on it and the 512GB one for everything else :smiley:

GTX? RTX ain’t enough for that. I guess it’ll be laggy.

I would call it average build, but with PC you always can do any upgrades you want.
Also I like your ancient-look table.
Congratulations!

Finally, after like 2 weeks, I got my Xiaomi Redmi Note 9. And I don’t like it.
First of all, colour. It’s meant to be gray, but it looks blue. I don’t like it, but I can cover it with my case


Then, sound blaster and earphone jack is down, under, not up, together with charging. I hate it, because I am used to hold it vertically, and it completely destroys the sound. Why did they make it like that, it’s awful.
It’s big, like really big, and I have to put it in bag or handbag. Impossible to stuff it in pocket of my jeans.
Also, when I turn on black mode, it turns black and white pictures into negatives. This can be neutralized by turning it off for specific apps, but I don’t know why it keeps happening.
Finally, it heats up pretty quickly, and it’s unpleasant to hold in hands.
Idk, I may seriously return it. I’m afraid that company I have ordered it from won’t return my money, because they seem sketechy af. If I will return it, I will use money they have returned to me to fix my old
Redmi 6A. Gosh, I wish I could expands its storage to like 32 GB. That 16 GB really does not do its job.

Maybe you got “lucky” to become a proud owner of a defective model.
But apart from glitches, if you don’t like it, you better return it indeed.
I hope you’ll be more lucky with that


Kesha was supposed to be the last show we saw before Covid hit, but it cancelled giving that title to The 1975 + Bob Moses.

Trying again to see her only now we will get to see Betty Who as well (=
Fingers crossed for no postponement.

Today I did the last payment and after 10 day,s finally got the knitted doll of my Ursam Bearmon. I’m so happy!!! I think looks really cute and was just for around the equivalent of 21 bucks.

Later, I’ll add the tattoos and scar myself.

Waterproof earbuds for when my workout schedule says “swim laps.”

Amex sent me this sweet spend 50 get 50 back up to 2x offer. I thought I’d get these for half price, but the total was $107 after tax and I got an email from Amex saying I got a $100 credit even before I got the confirmation email from best buy. That’s certainly a very nice surprise.

My girlfriend told me she’d like to do a puzzle together with me and because I’m not only a perfect gentleman, but also a fuckin nerd i just ordered this one.

Is it just me, or have you been turning up the heat on your Godzilla hype these past few months?

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind it at all, I just don’t remember seeing so much Godzilla stuff on the forums this time last year. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
