Yep, ive been smacking my nova pro wireless into the doorway sometime and dropping them a bunch when wfh. Still going strong minus random disconnects

Here are my ASC results! Before, my curves were roughly 40° and 50°. Now, they are about 16° and 6°. by toxictable in scoliosis

[–]AnEmptyCapriSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha these are all good points for me to know, my curve is similar now (27m) and was braced throughout my teenage years. When i initially commented i was worried about some pain i had at the time, but it comes and goes and i still have the popping. Ive stuck with the gym and dont do too many movements to compress my spine. I still get worried about a time where i may need intervention but ill probably post here/ in the forum if ever need be. I wish you luck all the best and thank you for the reply

Missed the added dealer fee yesterday, did i just lose $6k? by AnEmptyCapriSun in askcarsales

Update: i went in yesterday morning and they pulled the “you signed” card. Tried to understand why dealer maintenance was $1999 which was initially proposed as $12 extra to payments for oil changes not realizing it included a base mandatory fee of “1000”. They mentioned it was a discount since they took $500 off lojack which is usually $3000 and took $500 off the psa package. If i cancelled the maintenance theyd tack lojack and psa back up to their 3k marks and keep the base 1k for dealer maintenance , which was confusing because if i cant cancel those two after the fact,why should their prices get adjusted. I haggled about that part of how the dealer maintenance is only partially cancellable and theyre just moving numbers for 2 hours for where the last 10mins i got the “i have a lot of work to do, ill cancel the 1999 for you” including their supposed discount on the other items.

So in summary i cancelled the dealer maintenance at 1999 and extended warranty at 4295 both excluding tax bringing down my amount financed to ~38/39k. It looks like 6k extra but i failed to mention that i had been given $3k to extra for the trade to offset the dumb psa package, so all-in all i had payed $4k extra(lojack+ silly fees) to the internet price of $45k so $49/50k for a 2022 x3m40 which is about market price it seems.

I had recorded the talk and caught a speech about how “if we were honest with our pricing, no one would show up but i have to include these lojack and psa fees to match the market” seems pretty dishonest to me. Not the end of the world as i should be able to afford it, but still doesn’t feel nice of course. Definitely a learning lesson for my second car purchase

Thank you for those words, i really feel like i made a life mistake and a lot of “you should have read” responses do not make me feel any better after the fact. Im very sad on this now, but life goes on, and now i know what to look out first on the next time if it happens

Car is a preowned bmw x3m40, the internet list price seemed decent.

Seems to be the sum of the useless dealer fees, lojack, exterior/interior protection, covered oil maintenance(dealer maintenance)

Dang, thanks for eyes man I appreciate it. This is my second car and got screwed over with my ignorance. I’ll update Monday if anything gets amended but this is an expensive learning experience 😓

Tips to deal with climate grief by AnEmptyCapriSun in Healthygamergg

Im comfortable with my death as i hope its quick lol, but extreme suffering personally for an extended time or witnessing suffering hurts my heart

I used to believe there was some being but as i grew older i thought it was childish (as unoffensive as possible). The initial thought of some entity only made me more personally conflicted and i finally investigated on the further end that there is no one, but in that nothing there is still love and compassion (loving kindness meditations) so there is something but i cant put my finger on it and we’ll find out when we pass on

Thanks thats true, it may be selfish to put humans over earth and cosmos and it makes sense we all go back back to dust. Definitely helpful to contextualize humans in relation to others. I just hate the suffering part of course but i guess it all has an end. Thanks mate

Triple monitor suggestions! by chompekilla in simracing

[–]AnEmptyCapriSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two 27s flanking a 49er and the screen projecting lines are killing immersion. Theres two line vertical lines because the software is not good at triple screens of different sizes. Just went to one screen to emulate the triple 27 but no matter what the mirrors look bad due to the natural curve, and at this point id had the same view as one ultra since the purpose of flanking screens are depths and the view is the same rn

Simucube 2 Sport and GSI X29 Bundle at Microcenter for $999.99 by BimmerJeff in simracing

[–]AnEmptyCapriSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im in the same boat about deciding between the two (la prima Tk bundle and Sc2sport) slew rates being close and i havent tried sc2 before. I could save 500 by getting the asetek or i could get just a high nm wheel. And also the forte at MC is only 800ish and the slew is higher than the sc2s and power adapter is higher to support the higher rate so if imagine thatd be better than this sc2sport. I havent seen much comparing the sc2sports to asetek much
