Came back to say you should watch this - it’s about FTX, but also has some very truthful insights about how we treat Elon

It’s time to replace my 2017 5K iMac
Not a great fan of the non-upgradable new generation of M1/M2 Macs, so looking at Ryzen 5900HX mini PCs (eg instead of Mac Mini)
I can build a beast if a machine with 64GB RAM (that’s faster than an M1 Max) for ~£1K
Yes or no? 🤔
@PW507@anon_opin It’s amazing how many people equate driving fast to being a good driver
Sit next to one, and as they come barrelling up to a roundabout far too fast, ask them what they’d have done (other than crash and die) if their brakes had failed
So… one of the car leases is ending in the next 6 months (SWMBO’s Ioniq) - thinking of replacing it with a 2 seater convertible
Candidates seem to be S2000(GT) or MX5 (RF)
Which would you pick, and why? 🤔
@davesingleton_ S2000 won’t depreciate much (if at all). Market is flooded with MX5s, so pretty confident it will
I also like the idea of adding value to an S2000… so will probably be on the lookout for one of those 😊
@anon_opin Elite was genuinely the last game I actually put concerted effort into, so agree with this 👍
The reason I bought an Amiga was because it had a slightly improved version of Elite 😊
@anon_opin ACC in a car that’s not fully electric is not the best, tbh. Several times in my (petrol) car I’ve had to emergency dip the clutch and change gears to stop it stalling when it’s slowed down a little too much (normally when the radar has shat it’s pants at nothing)
@anon_opin Try liberally rubbing mink oil into both inside and outside. Game changer
There’s a decent video somewhere on YouTube showing you exactly how to do this 👍
