Yup, and originally I was also aiming to put together a full SSD NAS, so I wanted to use multiple 4TB sticks for that since it was reasonably priced (at the time) for the amount of storage and speed. Alas, now I’m just waiting to see if it’ll ever go back under $400, but I’m not holding my breath.
Let us drink our Microslop hateraid and support a great channel/company at the same time. It’s just a bit of fun in these bleak times.
I had a similar thought at first as well, but then I saw Tux. It also helps that it’s 100% cotton and would be good for loungewear since I’m also not a t-shirt with graphic type of person. The best part, for me at least, is that this purchase helps support Gamers Nexus.
Use them as a form of currency at this point lol
And here I thought $399 for a 4TB Samsung NVMe 990 Pro was a bit too expensive. Little did I know. I’m so glad my friend talked me into impulse purchasing it last year. What I’m more annoyed about is not picking up HDDs for my NAS last year, I refuse to pay NVMe prices for HDDs.
Nah, it’s legit. You can find the store link thru Gamers Nexus’s youtube channel if you don’t trust: https://www.youtube.com/@GamersNexus
Lol thank you (and tech jesus) for this, both my friend and I insta-ordered.
I view that as a pro. Switching to Linux made it easy to quit that addiction lol.
It depends on where you live, I’m going to make an assumption you live in the United States. There are a few options for Korean products:
In person, I’ve seen limited products in Marshalls/TJ Maxx. If you live near a TESOLife they also stock quite a selection of Korean cosmetic products (lip tints, blushes, etc.) but not much Korean skincare and I don’t remember ever seeing any Korean sunscreens. Most of their skincare is Japanese (and where I purchase sunscreen if I can’t online; they stock my holy grail: Skin Aqua). I know they have a website, but I’ve only shopped there in person and haven’t tried online. Most Asian markets also stock some form of skincare/cosmetic products, especially places like H Mart or Lotte Plaza Market.
If you live in NYC, you can go in person to Senti Senti, they also have an online shop I’ve ordered from when I needed to order something quick back when they were known as oo35mm. I remember there was an Asian grocery market near their original location that had a whole floor dedicated to skincare/cosmetics but I’m blanking on the name right now.
There’s also Costco if you have a membership (check their online stock, it’s not extensive but sometimes it surprises me; no sunscreen though). Most Korean brands now have their own online storefront (but I do think the prices on Amazon is still cheaper, so it’s up to you if that’'s worth it). Granted their official storefronts in the United States won’t have the Korean version of their sunscreens. I’ve also been impressed by iHerb’s selection of Korean skincare, but I’ve yet to see sunscreen there.
Directly from Korea, there’s Olive Young and most shipping estimates are 5 to 7 days. There’s also Jolse, but I haven’t ordered anything from overseas since the tariffs have been in place so I couldn’t give you accurate time-estimates.
Overall, it’s pretty tough avoiding Amazon since most Korean companies usually sell directly through Amazon with deals that undercut even their own official website pricing (ex. celimax, S. Nature, Physiogel, haruharu). But I’m in the same boat as you in trying to avoid business like Amazon, but for now, I’ve simply reduced my consumption.
Sunscreen is always a tough one (one day we’ll get some new UV filters lol), and I mostly stick to my tried and true Skin Aqua sunscreens so apologies in advance for my limited knowledge of Korean sunscreens. Hopefully this helps!
Yeah, that video made me switch out the motherboard I was planning on buying for my next build
I love and hate this, it really managed to raise my blood pressure.
Ooo, thanks for the recommendation, that does appear to be what I’m looking for! Although I’m still hesitating as some reviews do say that you can still click the joysticks through the case which isn’t ideal :/
It seems silly, but that inner case is what’s really making me feel the FOMO, traveling with the current case is such a hassle. I hope they sell the case alone for current deck owners
I managed to get wifi on this long haul international flight and it sure made my whole 18 hour flight to hop in right as Ass-N-Titties was played. Gave me a great laugh, thanks for that person who suggested and you for allowing it 😂
Hmm… I guess mine would be niacinamide (as I stare at my Holy Snail’s Whale Shark and have a Geek & Gorgeous B-Bomb on the way 😅). Like, it’s nice, but at the same time I really don’t feel like this ingredient does much for me. I keep using it because it doesn’t hurt me, but I’m not sure if it’s just placebo at this point lol
If we could have flares in Lemmy, mine would definitely be something about hating jars 😂
We need to go a level deeper: a carving of you carving a pear from avocado seed on another avocado seed
I enjoy the texture of the Kose cleanser more since it feels thinner and easier to completely rinse off. I don’t mind the Hada Labo one and it does get the job done, but I find I have to work a little harder to both spread the product and wash it off.
I high-key need all three outfits in my life asap. They look fantastic!
