I am waiting for next gen AMD gpu then I will bring the whole box current again. I have a couple years till cant run everything at 4k or better. My OLED and my GPU actually push 8k in video and lower settings games. At 120hz. 40 fps. Playable but not for first person shooters. Frame drops are an issue. Input lag rears its head.

Very cool. One question, though… This is my first online interaction in (cough cough) a few decades. Has “troll” taken on a different meaning from what I see and hear online? Namaste y’all!

Good morning Sir @Rafa1660 and Welcome to the Forum! 
If by “troll” you mean some mean spirited bastard who has nothing better to do than ruin somebody else’s mood, then no, it has not changed. 
I hope you’ll have a great day

We are a friendly group. Some folks will troll a site to Make sure it’s their vibe by checking out the scene first. But @kaptain3d is absolutely correct in that every society has their folks they wanna keep under a bridge 
Nice to meet you!

Very cool, You’re out there helping save lives. I’m 1 year post liver tranplant patient. I figured i would ask because of your username 
. I had also moved from the country to city. I lived in the backwoods of Ohio for 33 years before i moved to the city 2 years ago. I was sick with stage 4 liver disease from cirrhosis right before i moved in. I adjusted quickly, had to really. But i enjoy it. All in all im just so glad i can get back to growing. And sharing. You have a good day now.

Good to hear you doing well @FearsomeTea going in for a Radical kidney removal The 18 th myself, unknown if cancer yet.

Damn homie, hoping for the best for you. I assume after the removal they’ll want you to get a transplant to replace the bad one. I have 2 friends who have had kidney transplants this year and one being because the original transplanted kidney failed on her. Her new kidney is doing okay rn at first it regected a couple weeks ago but its being stabilized now. But yeah your going through some shit rn and just hope it all works out the best for you. So definitly sending you some thoughts and prayer and hopfully no road bumps for you. It was a mess for 2 years trying to get my liver transplant so i know how shitty thing can get. Good luck buddy.

Hope the transplant regimen is going well. Liver is tough. It does so much, when it fails it is catastrophic. Have you adjusted to post transplant life well?

@Growmoredank Dudes you are going to call me a nut.
Adopted son got a ROG Ally X. MY GOD!!! The single core performance blows down my 5800x3d. Ram speeds are double my AM4 rig. My Rig is top end of that generation. TOP for gaming.
Bought an Ally. Bought an egpu. Bought the docks.
I will bench the setups against each other. If the CPU, fast little sucker, does not throttle the GPU and I reach to within 10% performance of the desktop I will go modular. Starting with a 6850m 12gb card for price purposes. I bought the non X model with the asus proprietary input/output with 80gps passthrough. Destroys the 40gps thunderbolt 4. If this performs I will never get another desktop. All I will do is get next gen Ally as processors get better. Also if solid I will purchase an egpu dock with 800w psu to run up to a 5080 full or 5090 throttled a touch. You know I will go AMD though for pure hardware/software compatability. Son has an 800w egpu on the way himself. T4 only but that is up to 60gbs depending on bus speeds. He is pairing it with an RX9060xt 16 gb card. Price point buys also. From research, 1440p graphics will push 80-170fps, title dependent, at ultra with my 65 oled 120hz tv. I went with the ASUS proprietary egpu dock to begin. I feel the bus speed will negate some performance losses with less gpu. Let me know what you think brothers

Wanted to compare Dispensary to my grow. Stopped in a dispensary in Chicago. Got gummies, RSO, A super infused joint, live rosin, at 78%, 2 carts for a circle member. Northern lights and pineapple express. 14g of some hybrid with stated 29%.
Comparisons
The flower is very smelly. Pretty. Gets a nice instant bang and high as heck. DOES NOT LAST! Mine has way more staying power. Probably because I ride it to the end instead of harvest as soon as can. For a party it is awesome. For medical it lacks a lot.
Gummy
5mg pieces. Tasty. Very sugary. I needed to eat half a bag to feel them. 1 of mine is 10 or more of them. We dont eat a whole gummy of mine unless time to coma.
Carts
These are off the chain to be honest. Well made. 85% concentrate. VERY flavorfull. Great flower taste.
Infused Pre roll
OMG!!!
Rso
Dont know yet.
Pricing
NOT A CHANCE I would supply from them. 250 average ounce at 15-20%.
300 for high THC. Carts on sale 20 bux a pop. Rso 23 a pop. Gummy on sale 18. reg 20-25. Preroll 24. TAX was 40 friggin dollars.
Growing,infusing,concentrating and making edibles at home is FAR better return on investment.
Summary
I see the dispensary as a nice shopping experience. Variety. New items and trends. A party or gathering.
As for long term medical needs or just a heavy habit they are pure fails in my mind.
