chromecast is a great gift to give normies, so easy even my mom can do it. alternatively a roku box or one of the thousand other media streaming boxes/sticks

>UPS (You can get decent ones for <$100, it will help protect you from data loss for many years to come by providing battery backup in case of power outages as well as having giving you a decent surge protection).
>A new HDD for another level of redundancy or to consolidate smaller drives
>A nice SSD
>A big and fast microSD card or USB key
>A nice altimeter watch if you like hiking (>$100 tho)..
>A new beefy router
>Thermal camera attachment for your smartphone (neat little devices)
>A nice monitor attachment thing for your desk
>A closed loop water cooler for your CPU
>If you're into photography, some photography stuff
>If you're into optics, a ~$100 portable battery powered led amscope microscope. Very nice gadget, cool hobby. Pic related.

That's pretty awesome. When they drop in price a little more I might pick one up. Still pretty cheap compared to full on thermal cameras though.
>>51497947
It's amazing how cheap it is actually. My childhood dream is coming true. What a time to be alive.
Perhaps in a decade we can get XRF analyzer attachments that don't cost 20k too.. That would be amazing..

I'm still waiting for anyone to finally figure out I want nice socks instead of another fragrance.
>>51500267
my dv6000 still runs fine today. I'm guessing it would be long dead if it had a nvidia chip inside.
