  • I disagree with that Rock assessment. Is he well curated. Absolutely. The only thing mainstream about him is the genre he’s working in. Psyop strength? You gotta pay too much attention to everything he does in this attention economy for him to be a Psyop. Ain’t no letting the job do it’s work with Rock. You gotta give him your full attention. There’s a level of disconnect that a Psyop needs to work and Rock isn’t allowing that. Could you skim the dictionary and learn every word your eyes touched? I don’t think so.















  • It rings true but it’s not. It’s highly dependent on your upgrade plan. You can get a new CPU without a new mobo if you aren’t changing architecture like jumping from AM4 to AM5. The idea that only the cheap parts last the longest isn’t true either. I’ve been on the same GPU for nearly 7 years. It’s getting long in the tooth but when I do decide to upgrade I’m not forced to upgrade anything else. The GPU is the bottleneck but the bottleneck isn’t noticeable unless I’m playing some new AAA game that requires everything under the sun to run it.

    That last paragraph about parts being 5 to 10 years taking up close to 0% of your build just isn’t true for me either. The newest parts in my PC are three years old at this point. The case, the CPU and Mobo, Ram and an NVME drive. The case was purely for vanity reasons. I got an old GPU, and old PSU, 1 NVME drive, 2 SSD drives, and 2 HDDs that are 10 years old. All those parts are older than 5 years. The argument that most people are using PCs that are less than 5 years old sounds like some phone FOMO shit. I don’t buy it.
