Not sure if there's a more appropriate place for discussing pre-builts right now, but wondering what opinions are on this one from Costco right now for $2000

https://www.costco.com/p/-/msi-aegis-r2-ai-gaming-desktop-intel-core-ultra-7-265-geforce-rtx-5070-ti-24gb-ram-1tb-ssd-windows-11/4201007873

I've only seen a few deals where something with a 5070 is at this price, but a ti makes it seem like a great deal. Reviews are argumentative though on whether a single stick of 24 ram is going to kill efficiency.

MY VISOR! I AM RENDERED INOPERABLE WITHOUT MY VISOR!

I was very hopeful that was some kind of note just from the resume writer of things they noted or something, and meant to be un-highlited before sending. But if not that's even worse.

Lol Reddit stop auto translating you're ruining the reference.

Nooo please stop saying Dragon Age Veilgaurd only failed because it was woke, it was bad because it was a terrible Dragon Age game. I'm not going to let you misattribute its badness for the wrong reasons.

Please leave with your ai slop you're spamming in every single post you make

The worst is I keep getting like, ratemynose, pickmyoutfit, outfitsover30, ratemeover30, outfits, ratemyface etc etc

Except none of them have any meaning whatsoever and it's just OF spam / bot posting over and over and over. I swear I've blocked probably 50 at this point and every time I go to popular another one will show up in the first ~30 posts I see.

Ohhh it's supposed to be funny because it's porn... I think.

Me watching Gilmore girls - "Hmm let me look up that sub, GIL..."

Oh you want to see the gilf pussy subreddit? Or gilf2 or the user gilf fucker?

I've noticed this 1000% and was actually even thinking about asking this exactly recently. I've never noticed a click that randomly had me upvote a post or start to comment or visit some sub, but roughly every 10 minutes an ad "accidentally" opens while I'm scrolling.

Uhhh yeah because they have a pinned post selling pictures of themselves.

Wild that I remember reading it and being too young to totally associate with all the teenager jokes, to basically being dangerously close to acting like the parents.

All these fake stories have to end with, "my friend thinks I should do X, but my other friend says Y. What do you think"

Like whose fucking sister says yeah this is cool.

Haha oh shit I just understood why the person in front of me in line today was arguing they got a combo and wanted their drink included. I heard them telling them it was the calzone but didn't really understand the context until now.

On that note though, there were like ~20 people passing through all ordering at the same time and they got me my food in like 3 minutes which seemed absolutely insane. The ability to keep up that efficiency is totally worth it.

My office building downtown has no walkable restaurants (for under 20 minute walks though legitimately rough areas with aggressive homeless people). They decided to do a ~10M remodel putting in a new cafe and updating our entire first floor to make it a place people would want to hang out and get lunch. Because they forced us back full time in office after 3 years remote.

A sandwich is $14 with no side. It is empty.
