Damn really cured my depression by being happy
This sounds unbelievably stupid but it's amazing to realize the amount of power you have over how other people feel, especially for being happy. It's become so standard to close up and just talk negatively about yourself that you may not realize how easily you can make someone else's day good.
TL;DR: I'm thinking about asking for a desktop computer for Christmas and I kinda need some advice
For the past 5-6 years, the practicality of a laptop has been worth the drawbacks. Now, as I start to do things which require more power from a computer, it seems to be becoming a bottleneck rather than freeing.
I know very little about things like motherboards, power supplies, anything AMD, and desktops in general 
so I figure it's not worth building one from scratch for me
What's a good desktop? I'm looking to get something better than my laptop (16 gb RAM, i7-12700ā¦k?, laptop RTX 3060, 1 TB SSD) and I have a lot of money saved from never participating in capitalism (I don't want to spend a butt load of $$$ on this though).
Does anyone have any advice? Should I get a prebuilt? Assemble it myself? Try AMD parts (not sure about this though)?
Just trying here before I dive intoā¦ Reddit 
Having watched the show ~20 times, I can confirm this
i just watched avatar: the last airbender for the first time. hereās my thoughts:
it meets or exceeds the minimum acceptable standard

I'm looking for a new monitor for Christmas. Does anyone have any recommendations, specific or not?
I was thinking OLED, 1440p (both screens I have rn are 1080p) (I'm not sure my computer would do well on 4k), but I'm having a hard time finding one that looks good.
My favorite D&D trope at the table is pretending modern works exist in game, but as a different medium, like the play "ultimate mortem" (Die Hard), or Shakespeare just being canon because it's time period accurate
Take 3: it finally works... Alright with an added module which automatically launches the minecart if it arrives and the chest is empty. Actually this design sucks but it's functional enough for what I need
Success!
Worked on it more, and a random bug broke the entire working machine. It needs to be fixed
No joy quite like saying "I should make a super smelter!", starting to work on it, getting lost on the redstone, going into a test world, testing ideas, getting lost on ideas, looking up tutorials, tutorials are way too complicated or way too simple, and giving up on the idea

Got to play Helldivers 2 with one of my good friends last night and I joined his game not knowing that it was a helldive on bots
Difficulty has changed a lot since I last played helldive I guess (I was there for Malevelon Creek) but it was actually really fun. I wouldnāt go as far as saying it was easy, but there were only a few moments where we were fully overwhelmed.
I seriously love HD2. Nothing quite like taking out a base with 2 bullets and no grenades, stratagems, or stims

AI? Really? AI? They want to inspire creativity and they are including AI? How on earth will AI help kids create? If anything, it will stop the learning process because, instead of creating art or code that is creative and requires skill, kids will just write a prompt.
