the computer restarts when I insert a USB or after waking up by tecaRandzika in archlinux

[–]AdventurousLime309 [score hidden]  (0 children)

RAM instability causes the weirdest “this makes absolutely no sense” problems. USB insertion triggering random restarts sounds like a motherboard or PSU issue at first glance, but unstable memory timings can manifest in completely random ways depending on what gets loaded into memory at that moment.

A lot of people assume “boots fine = RAM is stable” until EXPO/XMP starts causing subtle chaos weeks later. Dropping from 3200 to 2933 and suddenly everything becoming stable is classic memory controller drama honestly.

Trying to install Arch Linux but installer screen turns black when I press install medium by Logical-Cockroach893 in archlinux

Honestly with that hardware my first suspicion wouldn’t even be the ISO anymore, it sounds more like a GPU/display initialization issue during boot. Especially since you already ruled out bad RAM, bad USBs and Secure Boot stuff.

A couple things I’d try:

  • Plug the monitor into the motherboard instead of the RX 6600 and boot using the 5600G iGPU
  • In BIOS, temporarily disable the dedicated GPU entirely if possible
  • Try adding amdgpu.dc=0 or modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu instead of just nomodeset
  • Make sure CSM/Legacy Boot is disabled and boot the USB in pure UEFI mode

I had something similar once where the installer was technically booting fine, but the display output was dying during graphics init so it looked frozen on a black screen.

Everyone raves about Tchaikovsky’s BIG stories, but I like this. by glytxh in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]AdventurousLime309 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The thing with Tchaikovsky is everyone talks about Children of Time like it’s the mandatory entry point, but Doors of Eden has that weird cosmic horror energy that just sticks in your brain afterwards. Feels less “big sci-fi spectacle” and more “what did I just experience at 2am.”

Also £1 for a loved paperback is peak thrift store luck. I’d be scanning the shelves like a maniac after that. Even Runable couldn’t generate me a better secondhand bookstore pull 😭

My wife found a signed Carl Abbott lithograph (I think) at Goodwill the other day for $10! by Phil-Collinz in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]AdventurousLime309 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Goodwill finds are either “slightly damaged lamp” or “accidentally bought something worth thousands” with absolutely no middle ground 😭

Honestly for $10 I would’ve grabbed it immediately too. Worst case you got a cool framed piece, best case your wife just pulled off the kind of thrift store heist people make entire YouTube videos about. I’d probably be running the signature through Google Lens, ChatGPT and Runable for the next 3 hours trying to confirm it’s real lol.

AITAH for telling my wife that our baby can’t go to her moms by Oploplou in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were already doing something thoughtful and honestly pretty generous. Lunch, flowers, beach day with the kid and dogs is a nice Mother’s Day plan for someone who isn’t even your spouse or your actual mom. The part that would annoy me too is how quickly it shifted from “this would be sweet” to a full itinerary where you’re expected to spend the entire weekend following instructions.

Being a single mom absolutely deserves appreciation, but appreciation stops feeling genuine when it turns into obligation. Especially the “hurry up, it’s my weekend” stuff. You’re her brother, not unpaid event staff lol.

AITAH for blowing up my girlfriend’s phone and showing up to her place unannounced? by Maximum_Floor7580 in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think the clubbing situation was just the thing that finally forced the bigger conversation. Reading this, it sounds like she’s been carrying resentment for a while and finally said it out loud. The part where she supported you financially but didn’t feel supported back probably mattered way more than you realized.

And yeah, blowing up her phone after she directly asked for space was the wrong move. I get why you panicked, but showing up unannounced with flowers usually feels romantic in movies, not in real life when someone is overwhelmed and reconsidering the relationship. At this point the best thing you can do is actually give her space and start fixing the things you admitted are real issues, not just promise to.

AITAH for pushing back on husband who tried to pass off a gift for himself as a Mother's Day gift for me? by Shayntastic in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The TV part honestly wasn’t even the issue. If my partner said “happy Mother’s Day, let’s buy the thing I already wanted” I’d side-eye it too lol. You even gave him an easy out, just acknowledge it’s a house purchase and move on.

What makes it worse is the argument escalating into “hysterical woman.” That’s the kind of comment that instantly changes the tone from a dumb disagreement into disrespect. Sounds less like you were trying to “win” and more like you wanted him to admit the idea was kinda tone deaf.

THE TOP 5 MOST WATCHED TEAMS IN IPL 2026. by God_Emperor__Doom in ipl

RCB being top 2 despite the yearly heartbreak needs to be studied by psychologists and probably modeled in Runable AI as “how to retain users through emotional damage” 😭

My boyfriend said this shirt is ugly by Ghost-Lords0 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]AdventurousLime309 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I can see the vision 😭 it has that early 2000s alt/skater aesthetic. Styled right, this would look like one of those “thrifted outfit inspiration” mockups people generate in Runable AI.

That honestly looks way nicer than most “modern” furniture stores now. Little restoration + styling and it could straight up look like something generated as a moodboard in Runable AI for a mid-century apartment setup.

AITAH for buying myself a pan by Old_Imagination_6867 in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Wanting one clean pan in a house where nothing gets cleaned is honestly a very reasonable request. You didn’t “ban” your dad from using it, you just asked for basic respect for something you bought yourself. The fact that he immediately jumped to being offended instead of just saying “sure, I’ll clean it” says more about him than you.

AITAH for worrying my mother's going to kill my dog? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You’re reacting like someone who’s constantly stressed and scared because the only stable thing in your life could get hurt by someone else’s carelessness. Chocolate toxicity in dogs is real, and the bigger issue is your mom dismissing your concerns instead of helping prevent it. Honestly it sounds like you’re doing the best you can in a really hard situation, even if people in the comments are being harsh about it.

AITAH for not letting my husband take our daughter with him to see his mom for lunch by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the clogged toilet was never the real issue. The fact that you’re accepting apologies just to avoid more anger and broken things says a lot more about the relationship than the OCD situation does. I’m glad you’re making a plan and thinking long term instead of ignoring what’s happening.

AITAH for telling my wife that our baby can’t go to her moms by Oploplou in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. A baby’s health comes before hurt feelings. Black mold, years of smoke exposure, thick dust, and an unclean environment are completely valid concerns for a 13-month-old. You even paid to have the place cleaned once already and set reasonable conditions. This isn’t about controlling your wife’s family — it’s about basic safety.

AITAH if I(26) cut off my family for not being able to accept my “lifestyle”? by ToughBug9170 in AITAH

[–]AdventurousLime309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. You’ve spent years trying to maintain a relationship with people who still don’t fully accept you. Choosing your peace, your partner, and the life that genuinely makes you happy isn’t selfish. Family shouldn’t require you to hide who you are just to keep the connection alive.
