The kicker for me is always when I reach the point of: ‘oh wait, I’m not instantly great at this new thing?! UGGGGHHHHHH… ok I give up’
Man I got lucky with 3d printing and self hosting. As long as I am not trying to buy new hardware and upgrade every month the cost of filament and time is small enough to not impact my family.
That and home construction projects, strangely enough no one bats and eye at a $250 chainsaw, but I go and spend $80 on a used GPU and people flip the fuck out about being irresponsible.
Tools are cool AF and if you use them on a project or two its easy to justify to other people. Yes i need a table saw, yes I need a mitre saw, yes I need a router, clearly I need this full set of battery tools…
How do you get people to not bat an eye at the chainsaw?
I’m still biding my time after the m18 hackzall until I’m allowed to go back to the tool store. Then I’ll be able to run around my backyard like a space marine with dangerous power tools, like the adult I am.
The secret is not having any money to buy stuff in the first place
Ah yes, the reminder that I probably have ADHD because I have a hobby cycle and boredom intolerance.
This is impressive how great you can generate pictures with IA, to make a 4 pannel comic in minutes.
Too real. I wish I could stay interested in hobbies after I already got all the expensive stuff for them :(
This cycle is why I really loved the idea shown in The Matrix where Neo is just given knowledge by having it uploaded directly to his brain from a computer.
Fuck yes, I want to download the ability to play guitar and do kung fu. Sign me the hell up!
