    First generation i7 on a 12 year old motherboard here…with a horribly mismatched overpowered 3070ti. I’m upgrading it piece by piece over the years. I was waiting on AM5 sockets. When I upgrade, I make sure it will last me another decade.

    I still have shit on a data drive going back to 1999 like some kinda ship of Theseus here. Some things I used to run natively decades ago I now run in emulators and virtual machines. I’m going to see how long I can keep this PC’s ghost going, maybe two or three more decades perhaps? When they become truly obsolete and we’re all just plugging into a USB port in our brains?
