Bestbuy started their boxing day sale early here so i ordered a pair of Sony WF-C500 Bluetooth earbuds cause I needed a new pair of earbuds for work and cause I literally just lost the left earbud in the snow today.

Also ordered a corsair k65 mini back-lit mechanical keyboard and a a Logitech G502 Hero SE gaming mouse cause they were on sale and cause I'm finally buying stuff to build my new gaming pc. It's been like 13 years since I last built a pc, so I'm excited and scared I'm going to mess up something.

Just ordered a Fractal Design Pop air xl black case and am going out,rn, to buy my cpu and motherboard. Getting a ryzen 9 7950x and a asus rog strix B650E-F motherboard.

My CC is going to be crying at the end of the day.

Edit: got the Ryzen 9 7950x and ordered a Asus Tuf Gaming x670E-Plus Wifi motherboard.
the cpu was on sale for $750(CAD) and the motherboard was $450(CAD). Now I need to get a gpu, psu, cooler, ram and storage.

Edit 2: storage is purchased. Got a wd black sn770 2tb. Probably not the best but will be fast enough for me. Next pay I'll get the rest.

If you post the writing I can tell you if it was Japanese or Chinese

That's quite some good knowledge you have, most people can't even tell for sure seeing as the characters look near identical. Heck, I can tell for a fact whether if this is the case too.

Not to continue to derail too much, but it's super obvious if you know even a little bit about either language.

First thing is that Chinese will be composed solely of Hanzi 汉字 (literally Han characters), whereas Japanese will be a mix of Kanji (literally Han characters) and hiragana/katakana. But, even if that weren't the case, and somehow you were confronted with only Kanji/Hanzi (would be highly unusual unless you are looking at only a couple characters), the simplification schemes among the two languages have diverged quite a bit and would likely also make it obvious.

Well, probably a EUR disc with an Australian cover as it generally goes. Nowadays the discs are practically all the same.

Some people think that if they buy a PS5/Xbox game with a French cover (from Amazon France) that it'll be in French... I mean, it's probably translated to French, but it's also in English.

Ordered 64GB of ram for my pc build. Do I need all that probably not but it was like $40 more than 32gb cause of a sale. Also ordered a Corsair RM850x in white because the black one was $40 more and I'm not paying more money for essentially a different coat of paint, plus it's basically hidden.

My sister gave me her old pc from 07/08, essentially a office pc from the time, thinking it was good and that I could use it. I just took the DVD drive out of it. I'm probably going to use it in the build.

Spent some of my Christmas money on another pointless addition to my collection of random shit. Pac-Man In a Tin. The d-pad is made of rubber and is bloody awful to actually use lol.
