A pack of 4 glass panels for the whopping cost of 5€99 shipping included, to make a glass painting pallet:

Re: your edit, what you want is: “What recent purchase do you really love?”

But it could be worded a number of ways.

Mine is a quantity of One Piece trading cards cause they’re fun to look at.

More practical: a split sprayer / pouring oil dispenser for cooking oil

Just recently got a hair band to help me keep back my long hair. I was originally using my over the ear headphones, but decided I need something dedicated to it. My mom, thinking she’d help, sent me some stuff that I was absolutely not interested in, like some sort of beanie hat thing or sports men’s camp headband thing, trying to be helpful, but I just ended up getting a Camila Paris headband that I really like.

Logi Pebble Mouse 3 M350s. It can connect via bluetooth with three devices.

Bought and old desktop to use as a home server and media storage. The wife and I use it a low pirate media that’s not on Netflix

I’ve lately started using more paper notebooks for various projects. Recently bought a new sketchbook. Will go buy a paper almanac for the next year today.

I’m a huge tech nerd, but I don’t think going 100% digital works for me. Also noticed that one of the ways I can deal with ADHD is to stop messing around with computers and do things by hand.

Glow in the dark dbrand skin. I can draw dongs on the back of my laptop with light…

Worth every dollar

What object, that you recently bought, do you really love?

I don’t need a hammer drill a huge amount in my work so I always thought my old, corded Hilti was perfectly sufficient for the job. Well it broke beyond repair a while back which was a bummer but I then bought a cordless 18-volt Makita hammer drill and oh my… I didn’t realise what I was missing.

My puppy.

Hoyt Altus target bow.

New shoes. My previous pair developed holes behind the toe guard so I got a warranty replacement. My new pair is much lighter, softer, and a better design.

I always used to use basic “gaming” headsets with my PC. Recently bought a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50X headphones, they are so much better!

I had to buy a handful of components so I guess it counts

Built my first PC recently. Mostly it’s my wife’s old components after a few years of upgrades stuffed into a new case, but it’s new to me. Pretty much just had to buy the case, a hard drive, PSU, CPU cooler, and a couple fans.

It’s not a powerhouse by modern standards (though it was pretty beefy for its time when my wife first built it) with a pre-ryzen amd CPU, and a 970, but it’s still running most of what I’ve been throwing at it (it helps that most of my steam library is 10+ years old)

We’re a little short on space in our house, nowhere to squeeze in another desk for a computer so I built it in a HTPC case and I’ve been gaming on our 70" TV with surround sound with our hue lights synced up to it, and it’s been pretty sweet, and astonishingly it hasn’t burst into flames from being crammed in my entertainment center with limited airflow.

It’s nice to be back to PC gaming, and I’m having almost as much fun tinkering with it and getting everything set up how I want it. Still a couple more tweaks to make, gotta figure out how I want to set up KODI, need to get a decent wireless keyboard and mouse, maybe a couple more controllers, find a way to enable HDMI CEC control so I don’t need to fiddle with the PC and receiver volume separately, etc. and then maybe some more upgrades when budget allows

Recently got my partner a miyoo mini, it looked so fun that I got myself one too. It’s been really nice to just play retro games for short moments, and because it gives me a much needed break from scrolling my phone it actually feels productive and restful. I’ve just finally completed Link to the Past, a game I played for the first time 30 years ago but never finished.
