It’s amazing seeing the prices of SSD prices drop!

Thanks for your contributions to the community :)

Stickies?

Depends what you use it for, this is the highest-end gen4 drive that only few people could actually maximize the speeds from. For gaming, this is extremely overkill and you won’t benefit too much from the higher speeds. The 970 would be adequate for most people.

UPDATE The bot has been unbanned and is posting again! Cheers everyone!

Thank you! The bot will be the main poster of this sub, as manual entries will be rather difficult with timing of deals. There shouldn’t be many human posts. Thank you for the swift-reversal! :)

So I’ve been a little absent the past few months (haven’t even logged in), and I’ll be honest, I never even saw that we had gotten a bot. It’s great that we had one, but this community is pretty small to begin with. Hopefully the community is able to get the bot back in the sub

It all depends on how much you spend, and on what categories, and what categories the card gives you rewards back in. If you have a card with a $100 annual fee let’s say, but you earn $500 in rewards (points, travel, cashback etc.), then you would have made back 5x the amount of the annual fee and is totally worth it. As someone else has mentioned, you should take a look at churning. Whether you want to churn or not, they have the best information on whether or not a card with worth it, and which ones are considered the best.

Welcome :) I’ll try to keep it community based, but if we keep growing I’ll try to get more moderators and maybe bots to get some deals automagically

I think the beta is full unfortunately - sent from Mlem ;) heehee

You could always make a community here around it :)

Thanks for the heads up! I guess I meant using an RSS feed from somewhere else, like RFD, or the actual BAPC subreddit so it auto posts here in my community.

Amazing how low prices keep getting! Keep in mind this is a gen 3 drive, but still excellent and nothing to complain about

Meanwhile, Canada’s housing supply is running thin!

My adblocker keeps tabs of how many trackers it blocked and Reddit was always the highest culprit of trackers. This doesn’t surprise me, but I do not have/use facebook,snapchat,tiktok or instagram to compare it to.

Set a realistic threat level that meets your balance of privacy/convienience and stick to it. I know it is easier said than done, but once you start to get used to it, then you can think about making slight adjustments to better your privacy here and there. If you try to go full privacy right off the bat, you are going to get frustrated.

Start with changing 1-2 things at a time and go from there. Perhaps just change your browser/settings and your email. Adjust from there after a few months

Thanks for making this Canadian instance :) I first created my account on Lemmy.ml, but also made one here since I am Canadian. Looking forward to seeing Lemmy grow as a whole, and see more Canadians join the Fediverise :)

For anyone interested, I’ve made a community for posting PC hardware/accessory sales (r/bapcsalescanada). Feel free to join and contribute. And if you know how to create an RSS feed, also let me know!

First off, congrats on being clean! Such a huge accomplishment! I’m going to ask a few questions: -How did you start? -What was your rock bottom moment? -What was the convincing factor that made you get clean?
