Back in 2018, I had a similar scare when my PSU popped during a gaming session. It took out my motherboard and I lost a whole week of work. Now I always go for units with at least an 80 Plus Bronze rating, even if it means saving up a bit longer. That popping sound is something you never forget, right? What safety ratings do you look for now?

Tbh, I feel this so hard. I once got weirdly upset when I lost a random screenshot that meant a lot to me, like my digital ticket stub. Now I'm just living with no real proof I was ever there, which feels kinda empty.

And I get why @jennifer403 says that, because my friend once missed her train but the hostel breakfast saved her day. She was stuck in Berlin with no plans, so she hung out in the common area and ended up talking to a group over pancakes. They had this huge spread with local breads, jams, and even some hot options like scrambled eggs. She said it wasn't just the food, but how everyone shared travel tips and stories that made it special. That free meal turned into a full day of exploring with new friends. It really shows how hostel breakfasts are more about the people you meet than just eating.
