Me in 2011: this bitcoin thing is cool but I really want to build a nice computer, let me sell a few coins to buy parts.

Me in 2025: this lightning this is cool, I can use it to buy nice computer parts.

Some things never change, I guess.

I bought a USB sound card in the early 2010's because the onboard sound on my mobo had a crazy amount of electrical noise. I think it was pretty common back then.

Where can you buy computer parts with lightning? 👀 I usually just hit Central Computer since it's close by, but if I can spend my sats on LN... 🤔

Newegg still has their bitpay integration after all these years.

Do you need to give your ID?

Not in the US, they may still require it elsewhere (and I imagine still block NY).
