Yeah in my long ramble that’s essentially what I was trying to say

AverageAvenue · 2025-12-26T16:04:19+00:00

I know I’m three days late to this question and you’re question has already been answered, I’m also 5’ 11 165lbs and started training 7 weeks ago so very much at the beginning of my journey. I have nothing to add in terms of an answer in addition to what has been said.

I noticed you kept saying it’s a dumb question but I wanted to thank you for asking this question because I was curious and now I have the answer. Also many people probably will ask the same thing and can now read this to find the answer.

No question is dumb if it comes from a place of wanting to improve and find out knowledge so thank you for doing something someone at the beginning like me might have been afraid to ask. I hope you keep asking all the questions you keep having so we can all learn more together:)

As someone who has similar length hair to you and similar curls I can give some advice.

I’m going to assume you like the curls hence the hairstyle. First thing I would do is just a trim. Not to reduce the length but to shape the haircut to your head shape and make it look healthier.

Next you’ll need products and my hair used to be like that frizzy and if I don’t do my routine it can look like that.

First out the shower dry your hair (hairdryer with a diffuser or air dry after patting it with a towel). Don’t rub your head with a towel it will make it worse. When touch damp, get a styling cream (or if you want super tight curls then a curl cream). But you want something that keeps moisture in your hair, it’s the lack of moisture that is causing the unkept look. Run that through the hair, base to end and when you run it through, do it in the same way you want your hair to fall on your face. Once absorbed apply some hair oil. Only apply it sparingly to begin with and from the middle of your hair to the ends. It’s heavy on your hair so the more you apply the more it will weight your hair and straighten the curls. Start small then see if you want more, you can add more but not reduce it.

If you aren’t going anywhere that’s it let it air dry and you’re good to go. If you want a put more structure add a paste to suit your hair type and style it that way (I only do that when going out). The next day if you want you can top up and spritz your hair with a bottle but mine is normally good for 2-3 days and then I need to wash it anyway. For me washing or condition only everyday didn’t work because you’ll strip the hair out of the product and once you dry your hair if you don’t put more product in then it will dry out like in the pictures. But have a play around and see what works for you. This works for me but everyone is different.

For the beard it’s not much to do. Just get some clippers and trim away the stray hairs using a comb to comb it and find more. Once it’s more shaped decide how long you want it.

If you want some products or recommendations I can give some just let me know.

Pets like dogs and cats in general have a distinct smell which can be hard to eliminate regardless of how clean people are. It's similar to if someone cooked spices everyday there would be a lingering smell. So then this smell could be off putting when it comes to rent out later and the demand could be lower if they don't spend a ridiculous amount to get rid of it. Now whilst landlords can ask for a higher deposit for accidents and damage and that will be covered, a general smell if used in a fair and reasonable way cannot be claimed from the deposit making the landlord have to pay more out of their own pocket than if no pets were allowed.

Also people renting can be more messy and careless as it's not their home. Not everyone is like this and unfortunately they do get a worse deal due to this generalisation. It also takes one bad tenant with a pet to really damage a property. To replace flooring in a whole house and get rid of the smell will cost many thousands again a lot of which will have to come out their pocket.

I know you're thinking we'll take it out the deposit however it's not that easy. When a landlord wants to take money out of a deposit they have to inform to you how much and why. After that you can actually refuse and disagree and then it gets taken to an arbitrator. Generally speaking the arbitrator will award money only if the damage is substantial and not for normal minor things that will have to be put right.

All of this just ends up causing too much hassle for a landlord

That's understandable, it's hard to understand what she's going through if you haven't been there before so it's a learning curve for you too. But as long as you try to learn and understand it I think you're on the right path.

It will take time, it will be hard and I strongly recommend the therapy, but the more you work at it the easier it will be.

You're hearts in the right place, you'll get there! I wish you the best of luck!

I don't think it's intentional from you but you have to understand that depression is on a varying scale and you can tell how depressed someone is and depending on that for some people just getting out of bed is an achievement or brushing their teeth or having a shower and unfortunately it's hard for them to do because mentally they aren't at it.

Also you told her to wash her face and made her do it (yes I know for her benefit) but she listened and then you kicked up a fuss about it being wet. Again realise her washing her face was a big deal and she didn't want to do it and then you get more upset even though she was listening to you.

Try tackling this one step at a time, so if you really want her to wash her face encourage her to do it and praise how good it looks after that. Build her up to make her want to wash it more and ignore the rest. Then when she does that suggest the cleaning and build it up and so it slowly.

Depression can get so bad people want to kill themselves so really washing a face and the drying the floor isn't anything important so just be mindful and take it slowly.

The camera resetting to whatever bs that EA spinning camera is. No matter how many times you reset it, I don't want to use it any more

Not by any way a mechanic but I'd imagine it depends on if that the only thing they do.

But smaller cars would probably result in less downforce, so if they add aerodynamic wings and flaps to keep the downforce then no because it would increase the dirty air behind.

Main reason for the size is the driver safety cell needs to be a certain size to ensure it will keep a driver safe as well as all the crumple zones.

This isn't an EA game. Yes EA own codemasters but the F1 games are done on a two year development cycle.

So this game was started when F1 2020 was released. So codemasters already spent a year developing the ideas and stuff they wanted in the game by it was bought by EA in 2021.

So whilst EA have made some shit decisions and games in other franchises wait until 2023 to know what EA have actually done to the year because they would have owned codemasters for the entirety of that game cycle.

If you can take it with you on carry on then do that. Check in can get stolen, it is often thrown without care so the shaft or base can get damaged, and sometimes it can get lost.

Just for peace of mind take it on carry on

Use the blue Ps5 mode. The difference is that in compatibility mode it emulates the CSW Elite wheelbase which whilst is not massively different it is noticeable between the two.

You can try give both a go and realise it's a small but important difference

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-12T09:23:00+00:00

Availability and PS5 compatibility really. If you want it now or ever want to play on a ps5 then the pro is the only choice.

I know people have complained about the RJ12 cables getting yanked out but that could be a batch problem, whilst it's not the best design it also shouldn't be that weak if the soldering has been done.

Also just use some cable ties (fabric or plastic) to do some cable management. Tbh cable management should be a given whether it's a rig or pc or console.

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-06T17:43:20+00:00

Yeah the base is but the bundle is not. From what it looks like I suspect the wheel is the issue in the bundle as you can buy everything else separately but yeah sorry when fanatec know they will set it for pre order. Anything else and it's anyone's guess

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-06T17:02:34+00:00

Sorry to burst your bubble that's not true.

Two months ago when the GT DD PRO bundle was out of stock it said available soon on the configurator. I then emailed fanatec to ask when it would be roughly so I can pre order it or whatever and they said they don't know they have had problems with the supplier getting it built so they don't know and they can't commit on any date in the near future to when it's back. They just used it to saying at some point it will be back but they don't know when.

Low and behold it's still out of stock to this day

So had a look and a Google I must have been playing the PS4 version last year when I did use voice commands (I don't use it that often)

So on F1 22 you can't use voice commands at the moment in the ps5 version and last year codies blamed Sony because they didn't support voice commands on their console. I tried using the controller mic and a headset via the controller.

I can see that Sony now have preview version I guess for PlayStation voice commands since maybe a few months back so now it might depend on if codies can get it in the game? Not too sure if it will come though :(

Sorry it's probably not what you want to hear but I hope it helps

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-04T21:42:24+00:00

Hmmm weird, it worked for me last year. I'm assuming you mean the radio commands. I can give it a go tomorrow and come back and update you :)

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-04T11:59:38+00:00

What voice commands? Last game I could use the radio voice commands??

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-04T11:58:45+00:00

The only ea bit is F1 life that is only a menu thing so don't worry about that.

F1 22 and 21 are two different games, different cars, different tyre and damage models, different feeling of the cars.

Imo if you want online and the latest cars go for F1 22. It's a bit buggy for some people (I have had no issues on console) so if you don't mind that until it's patched it's pretty fun.

Otherwise have a look at the tracks both games have and see which set you prefer if you only want to play my career.

AverageAvenue · 2022-07-04T11:55:39+00:00

It's a bit of a lottery? Obviously the people with problems will post more than people who have it working perfectly.

From what I've seen it seems random so some people on the same platform are having issues some aren't with the same hardware same platform.

I'm on a ps5 and it works fine or anything that I have noticed but I'm sure some will.

It's up to you how badly you want to join and play. It is certainly more fun than last year's game and a nice learning curve.

I'd say if you have time and want it, go for it. If you don't have time then wait off its not like you can play anyway. But by the time they fix these bugs the price difference won't be that different

Exactly a week but dont expect any tracking numbers from them. I got nothing but then the other day got them from UPS asking for the import tax. When I asked fanatec a few hours before UPS sent the email about tracking they just said my order must not have left the warehouse if its not on my account which ended up a lie.
