I will never understand people having shared checking accounts.without being married. This is a mess waiting to happen
On the good side developers may make less electron apps soon.
Or they invest in micron and bloat their apps even more to force us to buy more ram aaaaa
Or we all run one app at a time from now on 😂
I’m happy that I bought 64GB a year ago for ~200$
Crucial getting out of the RAM game at this time is really insane.
*consumer ram. Micron wants to sell it all the AI bros not us.
literally the ram I hesitated buying for 2 weeks, and decided to get in a few months instead. Sent the store a mail at the start of Nov, but they didn’t have thermal pads.
Son of a fucking bitch
if your girl is excited for a $6500 ring you marry that woman. Rings easily get $10,000+.
$65 ring
If you need a 1000+ ring ur gonezo
a ring should cost about as expensive as 1–3 of your toys. Eg. if you go four wheeling a lot, or fishing, or mountain biking, play guitar or other instruments, or have an expensive gaming rig, etc. A ring, if your girl wants one, should be as expensive at least as one of those.
If you spend more on yourself than her ring, she will see that and think about what that means for your marriage, if she cares about a ring that much that she cares about how much it costs. She’ll see you spending money for your entertainment in 8 years (because you see yourself with her and making her happy in 8 years right?), while her ring is dinky and not sparkling. A wonderful symbol of your marriage that she might have wanted to care about more, but you denied her that with a $65 ring. I suppose you want her to pay for her own if she wants one that is nicer, or split it half way since that’s fair?
Women arent necessarily being materialistic when they ask for a $6,500 diamond ring. Whether you believe them or not is up to you. Whether those women are attractive to you or not is up to you
My point is: as far as diamond engagement rings go, a $6,500 wife getter aint bad, if thats what she wants. If you dont want a partner who wants a $6,500 diamond engagement ring go you, go find that one and keep them, too! But if you arent disgusted by women who wants a diamond ring, one that is thoroughly pleased by a $6,500 one—thats a keeper
I disagree, which is okay.
Rings can look nice under a couple hundred bucks and if you want to buy one, the symbol is still there.
I personally would be 100% okay spending big money on something that is actually worth it. When I see a really expensive product (like a ring), I just see 99% of it being profit. On the other hand, a trip together or getting them a “toy” (like you mentioned, nothing weird) would be way better.
Going back to symbols, the only one that matters is the one in your head. If someone would look at their ring and think less of it or less of their partner because it wasn’t pricey enough, I wouldn’t want to be their partner.
That being said, I get your point. If you can afford to spend 10s of thousands on yourself and then buy your partner a $30 ring, that would suck (I can understand why the reciever would think they aren’t worth anything). It wouldn’t suck if the ring was still nice looking though, but you gotta spend at least $70-100 for a nice one I think.
Over $1000 seems ridiculous to me in any situation though. Again, not an expert, but seems like a “natural” vs lab diamond debate. I see the “natural” ones as exploitative of workers and consumers.
If she’s expecting an engagement ring that cost that much money, run my friend
But it’s the biggest cubic zirconium in the world!
Well it’s a crucial spending.
I hope nobody is spending money on crucial right now after Micron’s dumbass decision to trash the brand. Don’t let them forget it when they try to bring it back after the AI bubble bursts either
I wonder how easy it would be for them to come back after trashing their brand, probably changing their production lines (server and dedicated RAM isn’t exactly the same), and after investing what’s supposed to be earning that might or might not materialize if their customer just won’t pay the bills.
Don’t worry it will be “rent our ram in the cloud for a monthly payment, now that we have thousands of datacenters”
You mean…we’ll be able to download more RAM???
This is a far better investment than a ring.
But it’s a collectors item now, babe!
Plot twist, she is actually talking about RAM.
You shouldn’t share a bank account with a girl/boyfriend.
On the contrary. Just don’t transfer all your money there. What your partner acts like with the shared account shows you a glimpse of the future.
If the imaginary people in the screenshot had 6.5k in the shared account that had not been wasted already, it would mean they were at least somewhat financially responsible… Until one of them bought RAM.
True, but I wouldn’t expect an engagement ring to come out of a shared account…
Except if they’re very wealthy!
