Comparable Apple iMac: $2,249.00

that is the base imac from 2017, they just released a brand new line of iMacs this year with six core i7s and Vega 20 gpus.
wowzers. six core i7s?! Like the 6 core, 12 hyperthreaded r5 2600x I just dropped in my new computer for $160?
How much is this bleeding edge technology, praytell? Bc if its more than $1200 or so, youre fucking up in a huge way.
But its yer skrilla homie. -

Originally posted by Phantasmagoria I've gone on lenovo, hp, samsung, dell etc and every single one of their comparable products costs as much as a mac, except you get an inferior experience (windows or linux).
The PC I built in 2013 costed as much as a mac, sans the gpu.
The whole "macs are overpriced" argument is outdated and no longer applies
macs are no longer behind windows desktops in terms of performance and they are no longer vastly overpriced
there is literally no reason to not use a mac now
im like 99% sure youre torlling but im bored so ill play.

$1300 for a 3GHz Core i5 and 8GB of ram. Thats worse than the 3.3Ghz i5-2500k rig i had built back in 2011, and i payed Cyberpower 1100 for that. So theyre only 8 years behind and a few hundred over. Im getting ready to sell the aforementioned computer, and ill probably list it at $600 tops. -

Thats actually still one of their most popular products. Id say 3 hout of every 4 computers i ship at work is someone selling these on ebay. I Believe he said he sells them for 1200. -

I have apple products, but i see zero that makes them sore reliable, powerful or unique. I love my ipad, but if i had any other 10" tablet, im sure itd work just as well. Always got me that they could sell core 2 quads in like 2016 for thousands of dollars lol. -

Originally posted by DietYellow Got mail tramadol and tapentadol for the same price, which idk if causes a false opi pos or not, but guessing not. Hoping I don't get kicked out after drug test tonight. I think I might have failed last week but my manager forgot to follow up with me.
The drug tests I get are sent to a lab somewhere and cost like $650 dollars each, so I'm surprised how much I've gotten away with so far. Company's website says they test for 95+ metabolites including Crouton, T-PAIN, tramadol, dph, but I've never gotten dinged yet. Hell, I had an ativan for my MRI and flexeril for a week and nothing popped up, so they obviously aren't testing for every single thing that they can.
Why are you even risking it? -
2019-04-29 at 8:21 PM UTC in 17 & homeless1. Make deal with parents to stat at home until you graduate. Tell them they can call the cops and have you evicted, but youre just afraid that this new "situation" will interfere with your grad. If theyre not dogshit parents, theyll probably give you the 3 weeks. Best case scenario, they forget about it in 3 weeks. Worst case- you got 3 weeks to get your shit together.
2. Sign up for food stamps/ cash aid/ housing. There's usually designated programs for homeless kids. Also Medicare or your contry's equivalent.
3.Call local churchs and ask about group homes/shelters. Or search craigslist or whatever- for someone willing to let you crash for free for a while. Or couchsurf.org or whatever.
4. Start applying to jobs NOW. Even if you bullshit all the references. If you have a friend with a car, try to work out some deal to borrow it, and then start doing door dash/food delivery. Or go the more traditional route and start talking to food delivery places- like Pizza Hut or something. Movie theatre attendant. Anything.
5. It kind of sucks considering i wouldnt consider you a "hard case", but consider starting a Go Fund Me or something comparable.Make a Youtube channel and take day to day videos of your life. Try to be upbeat or inspirational (people love that shit). Take videos with other homeless people to increase feels. Leave links to cashapp/ venmo/paypal/patreon/whatever.
Go on public computers at libraries and shit and download a browser extension like Honey. Most people probably dont do financial transactions on a library computer, but if they do, you get like 10% of what they save repayed to you in a quarterly check.
6. Sign up for all the free samples and shit that you can. Take those surveys and make like 10 cents each. Collect cans and bottles. If you find a restaurant that doesnt lock their bins, you can easily get 10 or 15 bucks in one trip.
Im sure theres morew shit but im bored now -

2019-04-27 at 12:57 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Malice Metro Edition15k isnt near enough. Unless you could be paid an advance via BTC, and then the rest immediately after it was done....theres just too many threads to unravel.
On a slightly unrelated topic, with my attention to detail, i was thinking id probably be pretty good at helping craft an ARG in LA. Was reading about a thing they had going on a year or so called The Lust Experience that was an 18 month long "immersive theatre" production centering around a violent sex cult/ sex trafficking/ murder, etc.
A guy was talking about how a homeless dude along his route home asked him for money, and then ended up giving him a dirty room key to a hotel a couple miles away. When he went there, he heard a shower running and the bed was all fucked up, clothes on the floor, used condom in the trash. The girl yelled to bring her her phone or something, and when the guy went in the bathroom, this young chick was in there, fully naked. She starts freaking out asking who the fuck he is and why hes in the room. Eventually she chills out and blah blah blah some bad shit happened to her. She starets crying and asks if its okay if he just lays down with her for a while and holds her hand.
Like 10 minutes later he gets a picture message on his cell phone with a picture of him and the hooker from the vantage point of an unseen camera above their heads, with the message "How would Mariana feel about this?" (his IRL wife). At that point the chick gets really cold and calls some dude to help her kick him out of the room, but the player had the presence of mind to pocket her cell phone and apparently found some useful shit on there.
Lol. Imagine if you ruined your marriage over some LARP game.

If you're a decent looking dude with good networking skills, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. But then you get herpes so.....yin/ yang my niggas.

Originally posted by CountBlah There's good money in antiques and memorabilia, no shame in knowing about it and thriving off that knowledge.
Yeah average restaurant lasts 1-3 years down here. There's a big issue right now with no one being able to find workers. There's a serious fucking housing bubble here at the moment. That apartment I had about 9 years ago for 650 is now close to 1500 a month. Houses that would be like 150k are going for 250-300 now. Ass of Yankees have moved down here to work at Boeing and Volvo. My housing costs is under 500 a month so I'm straight with that for now. I'm mostly trying to eliminate debt and be ready to strike when housing bubble pops. We're maybe 3-4 years into it.
Apparently in booming markets like that, the best lower end investment is trailer parks. John Oliver did a segment on it the other night, and it was depressing. Of course he could be full of shit, but still...
1500? Fuuuck. Yeah shit dude you may as well move to LA now. That's California prices. Years ago you almost had me convinced to move somewhere in the Midwest when you told me how little you paid in rent, and my little shithole apartment in Inglewood was 1400. Damn dude. -

Originally posted by CountBlah I've ran an ebay store for like 10 yrs now. Selling car and bike shit. It is a good steady trickle of cash. Postage rates and ebay fees going up so much suck though. I prolly lose 15-20% to that.
I'd legit like to open a restaurant or old school type diner here. It would be decent money and not the type of labor I usually do. I'm getting old and shit and I'm not sure how long I can continue the physical level I do. Right now if I work 3-4 days straight I need 1 or 2 off to recover.
Yeah being raised like a faggot, i have a good eye for antiques and memorabilia, so ill probably start hitting garage sales and just puking up the ads all over the internet. Saturation over quality. I also find people are a lot more likely to bid high if they think you dont know what your item is or what its worth.
Restaurant would be cool. Theres a huge failure rate in restaurants though. Like massive. After watching so much of Hells Kitchen, its scary how easy it is to fall into becoming a shitty awful establishment. -

Yup. Started an ebay store. Looking at different options. Not as enriching, but a lot less stress. Plus me getting sober with $10,000 worth of drugs in a sock under my refrigerator was never likely.
Its retarded to have been putting in serious work for 7 or 8 of the last 15 years, and have less than $20k to my name, living at home.
I can always go back to work later, but it'll mean jack shit if im pissing it all away, and without a solid foundation and a regular trickle of income to show on paper.
Been talking with my boss about letting me buy in on the next franchise they buy. The store im at makes between $50k-70k a month profit. Thats AFTER 3000 lease and wages for 6 employees, materials, etc. Franchise license cost them $150k Even 5% stake of a store doing half the business would be good enough for me.
That Pollos Hermanos life, rofl.
