home built running an OS that needs weekly update and Windows Genuine Advantage™️ to stay alive when i buy something with my socialist COVID stimulus package that will last me another 10 years. I don’t even game bro and I roll around in motor oil now under shitty ass cars I spend $150 a year (incl. oil change, would recommend Rotella T6 even on non-turbo cars) to keep running just because.
I built my first PC off dog shit 486 garbage bin parts in 1997 and played MS-DOS games with 3dfx and voodoo video cards when windows wasn’t so plug n play and decided after 10 years of that that I’d rather buy an all in one iMac that I could still upgrade with SSD to keep me 90% satisfied and the other 10% is from my smoking hot wife. I edited goddamn txt files to cheat fucking games in the late 90’s. I pressed the turbo button to de-clock my 486 down to 8MHz just so the fucking text on family feud wouldn’t read so fast so I could beat the stupid CPU family and go to sleep satisfied.
I tune my turbo cars with a 2006 macbook with an SSD that cold boots into virtualbox XP faster than the latest android tablet and still enjoy the smell of E85 soaked into my skin (kind of has a moonshine aroma to it, would suggest) I don’t need windows 11 or whatever when an OS that’s 20 years old and a car that’s 40 years old can blow away any Evo or STI even with advanced driver aids on the autocross course.
PS i also run an android tablet connected to bluetooth on my turbo engine’s ECU because Apple truly doesn’t have everything I need. but I log so much data on shitty ass old computers you would shit your pants should you ever be faced with 15psi boost on stock internals and hitting 13+ AFR under 100% load and you probably don’t know what it’s like to hit 254 VE and realize your fuel system is undersized.
