My natural instincts seem like all the things you need to avoid with an avoidant partner like overwhelming intensity of feelings, going all in, oversharing, excitement, showing raw feelings etc. I was wondering if it's even sustainable.
In case it's not a run while you can scenario, I would appreciate any advice for an early talking stage with an avoidant and later stages if it goes well
Thanks!!
2k ultrawide gaming, programming with local servers running in background. all on linux. portable enough for air travel. Should last 4-5 years before part upgrades.

Thank you!
I have been wanting to build a desktop for a while now, but I held back because I plan to move overseas in near future, and build it there, which I know is the right thing to do.
But I have spent ~24 hours in last 3 days researching specs and right build for me. I "need" to know :p. If I act on it, I'll have to sell the new monitor, tower case, power supply (the bulky items) just after few months of use, once I move overseas, only taking remaining parts with me.
This sudden hyperfixation is crazy. Have slept just 3 hours today (when my body just gave up and shut down). Just thought I'll share.
Started with 50 MBps, went down to 20 MBps shortly after and is declining slowly since. Running for 7+ hours.
HDD is 5 years old, rare use but very well kept.
Edit: external 1.5 TB HDD connected over USB 3. Overwriting with zeroes while formatting using gnome-disks.
Update:
Stopped gnome-disks ~78% and continued writing zeros using dd for the remaining sectors.
command used: #sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 bs=1M seek=1001250 status=progress (don't copy without understanding), used seek here to skip already zeroed sectors.
write speed went up from ~14 MB/s to ~100 MB/s.
slow speed could be caused by multiple passes of overwrites by gnome-disks (not sure if it does that), or by "initializing the filesystem at the same time as zeroing" as mentioned by @ares35.
gradual speed decrement was observed in both methods, as mentioned by @Synthead.
Thanks to everyone for being so helpful.
