  • I picked up a used Revopoint Metro X with accessories for ~$600 a little while ago. There's quite a learning curve to getting a good scan quickly but a couple afternoons of practice were enough to figure it out. The turntable is pretty flaky (random bluetooth disconnects) but the scanner itself is great.

  • I daily drive a clapped out 80s sports car with no AC and a broken radio. The true connection you can feel to a classically engineered machine when there's zero distraction or convenience is hard to describe. You learn every noise, every smell, every quirk of handling and weight transfer, gain intuition about how the chassis will react to every abnormality in the road surface, have the shifter and clutch become subconscious muscle memory where you don't even realize you're doing it, etc. There's a variety of reasons the average person should drive a newer car but I personally love an old hooptie.

  • Years ago my friend group was heavily into Beat Saber, custom maps, the whole deal. We played at least 3 hours a day, every day, all piling into a dorm and taking turns on a Vive until we were so tired we couldn't move. After graduating and moving I hadn't bothered to set the whole VR rig back up again. I finally dusted it off a few months ago and holy crap have I gotten out of shape. It took me a good 12 hours of playing to get into the swing of things and several more hours to hit full pace but I'm back. I've lost 12 lbs too - this game's intense.
