3 cheap synths but only half a more expensive one.
Reasonable amount of average magic cards or just a few good ones.
Half a graphics card.
Some nice wood for woodworking, but not that much if decent quality.
A flight ticket.
3 festival tickets.
0.5kg of ketamine.
A lot of 3D printing filament.
2 Warhammer figures.
3 years of swimming pool subscription.
Two chicks at the same time.
Office Space in the wild! Love to see it
A low-mid range PC. Maybe? Prices for components are fucking wack and I’m broke anyway, so I am not sure how far 1000 dollars would go rn.
My current PC was ~$900, built in 2019 and was for low-entry VR, or high performance in flat space games for 1080p res and 144hz.
You can probably build a decent entry level gaming PC for that, that can do the latest games at 1440p.
Ryzen 9600X, motherboard, 32GB RAM, and either a nVidia 5060 Ti or AMD 9060 RX with 16GB VRAM.
Might have to reuse the case, storage and PSU, but at this point PC gamers are used to cannibalising their old machines to save money.
Personally I’m hanging on with a 1060 6GB, and just using my PS5 for anything demanding. I thought the 1060 was dead the other day, but a quick autopsy and a can of air duster later and it was working fine again.
My two main hobbies are amassing wealth and being bad at finance so it probably gets me about 500€.

Found the (Republican) American!
Sadly republicans seem to be doing better financially
Rich (US) Democrats also exist.
Democrat =/= Leftist
Confidently wrong x 2
Two and a half hard drives.
Data hoarder?
One-handed media connesieur.
Yup.
Yeah, about 72TB if I find a sale
Imagine 1000 thread count linen. The cloud soft pillows and the nice mattress. (I’m not actually sure how much bed things are.)
A mid range set of motorbike gear (dirt or road) or a very cheap registrable motorbike.
Alternatively a number of interesting secondhand cameras/lenses, the number ranging from one to many depending on what exactly. I’ll admit I have actually spent near that much on two backs for my 1960s era Hasselblad so you don’t even necessarily get a whole camera…
buddy you can get some sweet dainese or A star full leathers for 1k €
Yes, you can. I guess I should have been more specific because I was thinking of a complete kit when I wrote that (so including helmet, boots, gloves, etc) and you do need to set your sights a bit lower to make the budget work for that.
fair enough, safe riding
You guys have stable hobbies…?
If you count “starting new hobbies” as a hobby, then I could get like 4-5 hobbies out of it, around 200-250$ is a reasonable buy-in for a new one.So, is your ADHD medicated?
Yes, but we’ve been having a few hot days around here and temperatures over 30°C really degrade the effectiveness of the medication. I bought a sewing machine on Saturday.
Ha, good guess on my part, or game recognising game…
wh— ok that explains a lot about why I’m such a pansy about heat
i wonder if stimulants are biochemically less effective in heat, or it’s just that our brains have to also deal with the sensory overload of melting to death thus eating into the medication’s mitigation of dopamine deficit… or both perhaps
I get 1 nice drone or 2 small ones.
Lost a 500€ infrared drone 2 days ago in a sugar beet field because “I don’t need the GPS when flying near the street” and then I was too high to make out if it was a deer or a rabbit and the powerline in between disrupted the radio signal, so the drone went into failsave and stopped all movement, getting carried by the wind into the field and it fell in a way that the battery disconnected… thank you for reading… I’m sad now…
If you had two infrared drones you could have started a rescue mission with the second one.
True! But only while the motors were hot!
Put one of those beepers that beeps when the battery has disconnected on there, it saved me at least a few times.
Damn that’s a shame. What resolution was the IR camera?
Just an analog one, the RunCam night eagle 3
Not quite 4 tyres.
~10 manual mid-range tools and enough wood to make a nice looking jewellery box.
Admission to all the folk dances I would visit in a year as well as the localish festivals OR admission and basic-mid range gear for a LARP fest
1000 bucks will get you a pretty awesome larp outfit, as long as you’re not looking for plate armor.
I go for multi day camping festivals, so it would probably be enough for admission, 2 sets of an under layer, an outer layer, a warm layer, and shoes. If you only have one outfit, you’ll have a bad time.
But if you know where to find cheap larp gear, please let me know.
Yeah ok, if you want good shoes, it gets expensive fast.
But if you know where to find cheap larp gear, please let me know.
Cheap? Mytholon. Cheap and good? Sorry, not really. I mean, Mytholon has great fabrics, but they’re not exactly sewn straight or neatly.
But a thousand bucks will get you there easily, depending on admission cost and food of course.
Edit: depending on what you want, Burgschneider is pretty great. Not super cheap, but definitely good and not crazy expensive
I can get a lot of weigths and a sick power rack
A decent drawing tablet
A decent guitar
