unironically owning a desktop is the gayest shit any human can do without literally taking dick.

any normal human being uses a laptop. its small, light, and PORTABLE.

LITERALLY the only people who have desktops are massive nerdy virgin faggots who want 160FPS on whatever soul-sucking, obesity-inducing video game they're currently playing. thats so fucking gay i dont even know where to start.

do NOT, i repeat, do NOT update the firmware on these things. I swear on my moms life that every update they bring out they make the NC less effective over time, forcing you to buy the new Sony1000xm4 later down the line, trust me, this is ultimate redpill advice im giving you.

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.

I hate to say it but my Apple Watch. Got mine for only $200 and paying at the register takes literally 1 second and I never have to touch my phone or wallet for it. Probably saved me from a couple of deadly coughs from people behind me.
In general, you should try your best to optimize your IRL relationships. Try to maintain a positive relationship even if you dont really like them. Give little gifts to your friends. You never know when you might want their help.
Also, a squatty potty. My shits have never been better

If you often enough find that workers are NOT decent people, maybe your vocal skills are missing some charm over the microphone. Try the face-to-face approach instead. Use your charisma in person. Go inside.
Greet them before you start ordering. Oh hi, there. Oh, wow, it smells so delicious. I've waited 14 hours to eat, etc, just got out of the hospital. How are you? Just something decent and polite as greeting, then give your order. Throw in a question/request. Would it be okay if I get 2 more of those biscuits? Are they as fresh and delicious as I remember? Smile. See if they don't just say, oh chile, I'm gonna ask you to wait a couple mins, cause we got some in the oven right now. Is it true you have real honey if I ask? That would be great on a biscuit. Be really nice. Manager moseys over, say hi to them too, and tell them how nice the person was helping you order, etc. How do I spell your name on my yelp review cause I've never had such a polite experience here? Make their day, dude. Extra thanks. Play it by ear, ask for the hookup on the hot sauce x5. Ask if there is a tip jar, ROFL of course they do not have one, but ask.

Can't play most video games, can't test if my video game works for the largest chunk of the market I'm trying to sell it to, bunch of free stuff is likely incompatible with it. Whu would I pay a lot for only basic functionality when I can buy a windows and both the basic functionality + capable of playing video games without thinking "does it work on apple"

Nonetheless not a fanboy of windows, apple, or linux. Just the reality that windows has the highest amount of possible fields of use.

Laptops used to be okay with their semi-open architecture, but now they're made to be used and discarded as a whole unit. Look at how much adhesives, glues, and weird screws go into making these devices as difficult to repair as humanly possible. The original Surface laptop even used WELDS. You used to be able to unscrew one little standard screw from the back to release an access panel, and batteries used to be removeable, but these assholes figure it's better for their bottom line to make you buy a whole new machine.

My passive side hustle is bank accounts. A lot of them give you money if you open a new account and deposit a certain amount within 2-3 months.

I keep the minimum amount in there to avoid fees and then I close the account after 6 months.

Two years ago, I bought the world’s shittiest Bluetooth car stereo for $20 new from Walmart. Shipping took a week and a half but it’s been running for the last 25k miles has given me zero issues. The $160 stereo in my daily driver is much more finicky.
