<2022-06-18T02:45:20.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Yep, still available, and I still remember being able to build my first computer as a teen. You're located in the US, right?
<2022-06-18T02:46:35.000Z> WretchedFetch: Yeap
<2022-06-18T02:46:54.000Z> WretchedFetch: Yeah he's saving up every penny for components
<2022-06-18T02:48:38.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: I was the same way. In my case I got my first computer at a garage sale for cheap, and then I was saving to eventually afford a real computer
<2022-06-18T02:52:10.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Anyways, I've had other inquiries, but no requests to buy yet, so you get dibs if you're actually buying
<2022-06-18T02:55:51.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Paypal is brawnyman713@gmail.com, if you need a payment method other than paypal just let me know
<2022-06-18T02:58:01.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: It was mentioned in the thread, but I've sold hardware on fedi before, and the bae.st admin (and by extensions your own poa.st admin) can vouch that this is legit. Make sure you include your shipping address in either the transfer notes or a fedi DM and I should be able to get this shipped this weekend
<2022-06-18T02:58:09.000Z> WretchedFetch: My dad helped me out when I started looking at building a PC. I have fond memories of him letting let me play some games on his old Atari ST
<2022-06-18T03:01:28.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Same with regards to fond memories. That garage sale I mentioned was for a ~1996 PC that I bought in 2004 for $15. I was so happy because it could barely run Baldur's Gate and a lot of other significant games of the era
<2022-06-18T03:01:54.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Also games like Myst, etc. So many memories
<2022-06-18T03:14:24.000Z> WretchedFetch: Lots of good times for sure. How would we be pay for the board? Like an ebay listing?
<2022-06-18T03:15:51.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Paypal works. Google Pay also probably works
<2022-06-18T03:19:08.000Z> WretchedFetch: PayPal should be good
<2022-06-18T03:20:31.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Ok, my paypal email is brawnyman713@gmail.com. DM me a shipping address or include it in the payment receipt and will get this shipped pronto
<2022-06-18T03:21:24.000Z> WretchedFetch: Ok cool, thanks so much. You probably made his entire year lol
<2022-06-18T03:21:55.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Out of curiousity is he paying for it himself or are you buying it for him as a gift?
<2022-06-18T03:23:28.000Z> WretchedFetch: I told him I will pay for it, and he can hit me back
<2022-06-18T03:24:14.000Z> WretchedFetch: This isn't stolen or anything shady right? Haha
<2022-06-18T03:24:30.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Ok, well that's wholesome, lets call it $60 then
<2022-06-18T03:25:25.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: And no, it's not stolen. I bought it and then realized I didn't need it and forgot to return it. Plus I'm feeling generous because I like fedi and I remember the joy of getting cheap hardware as a kid
<2022-06-18T03:25:58.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: I hope your nephew enjoys his build
<2022-06-18T03:26:57.000Z> WretchedFetch: Well that's awfully nice of you, thank you.
<2022-06-18T03:28:44.000Z> WretchedFetch: I'm sure he will, he's always talking to me about status updates on his build
<2022-06-18T03:31:25.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: What's the address I'm shipping this to?
<2022-06-18T03:34:52.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Post office closes at noon so no promises, but I might have this shipped on Saturday
<2022-06-18T03:38:23.000Z> WretchedFetch: No worries if it doesn't go out till monday.
<2022-06-18T03:38:39.000Z> WretchedFetch: 606 s clay st Greenville, MI 48838
<2022-06-18T03:39:09.000Z> WretchedFetch: I'll include the address in PayPal too
<2022-06-18T03:46:25.000Z> WretchedFetch: I sent 65 to hopefully cover the seller fee. Thanks again
<2022-06-18T03:47:05.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Lol, seller's fee is like 3% that's very generous of you. I'll try to get you a tracking number tomorrow
<2022-06-18T03:50:22.000Z> WretchedFetch: No worries, that will be great. I might not respond right away, got a long day at the hospital tomorrow 
<2022-06-18T15:50:02.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Shipped, USPS Tracking # is 9505 5158 7737 2169 5580 26
<2022-06-18T18:14:36.000Z> WretchedFetch: Excellent! Thanks again, and have a great weekend
<2022-06-19T00:18:38.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Hope your hospital visit went alright, was it just a checkup, or something more serious?
<2022-06-20T16:42:16.000Z> WretchedFetch: An infusion, I was recently diagnosed with MS.    It's pretty shitty, but hopefully these infusions will help level out the flare ups. At least now I know what's been causing my issues 
<2022-06-23T01:07:25.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Hope you get better, package supposedly arrived monday FYI
<2022-06-24T02:25:21.000Z> WretchedFetch: Yes, the box had a minor crushed corner, but everything is good. My nephew is really excited. Thanks again
<2022-08-09T21:24:51.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Not sure if your nephew already has a CPU or not, but if he's looking for something affordable with good performance, this is a great option, and it's on sale -
<2022-08-09T21:24:52.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: https://slickdeals.net/f/15965404-micro-center-stores-amd-ryzen-5-5600g-cezanne-3-9ghz-6-core-am4-processor-115-facebook-req-d-in-store-only?src=frontpage
<2022-08-09T21:25:34.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: The other benefit is that it has a (small) built-in GPU, so he can do (very light) gaming on it if he's still saving up for a real dedicated graphics card
<2022-08-09T21:27:54.000Z> WretchedFetch: He has not, I'll run this by him, thanks for for looking out
<2022-08-09T21:29:28.000Z> dave@gleasonator.com: Does he have any RAM? Curious what he does and doesn't have
<2022-08-09T21:50:59.000Z> WretchedFetch: He told me about his planned build a while back, but I can't remember now. I'll get the details next time I see him.
