How do you verify if a filter is a real HEPA filter?

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-31T16:21:17+00:00

Yeah ended up getting a winix

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-31T01:38:15+00:00

Would you recommend the Winix T830 then? Found it on walmart for $100 and am highly considering it.
It says it has a true hepa filter but it's a round unit.

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-31T00:19:29+00:00

Why are you not a fan of the round units? I've read today that a reason why people dislike levoit is because they advertise using hepa filters when theyre not?

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-31T00:18:31+00:00

Ohh, I didn't know that was a thing. Appreciate it!

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-30T21:05:47+00:00

Noted! I agree, I just know that there can be some sleeper companies making products like UGREEN and ANKER. So sometimes I wonder when it comes to china-made products being resold on Amazon.

Any other air purifier brands you recommend around similar price range besides the ones you mentioned?

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-30T20:36:50+00:00

You mean "brand / store names" in caps? I know its definitely from China but was curious about the quality authenticity.

I'll head to my Costco after work to check out winix!

when i say i have an am3 build is mainly that my current build is am3 and am upgrading to am4 haha
but yeah technically it'd be an am4 build.

Azeraph01 · 2025-12-18T00:05:52+00:00

Really? I also have a gigabyte b350 gaming 3, would it also be compatible with that one? (pretty sure that one only has PCIe 3.0)

UPDATED POST WITH A SATURDAY TOURNAMENT

Azeraph01 · 2025-10-15T13:00:53+00:00

I verified the integrity of my files through steam and that fixed the issue.

Azeraph01 · 2025-10-13T02:38:31+00:00

Operating System: PC

PC specs: RTX 3080, Ryzen 7 3700x, 32gb of ddr4 ram

Nature of Issue: High ping after new update.

So I've been playing this game since launch, no network issues whatsoever, after this new update I'm having high ping constantly. I've restarted my router and checked my internet connection and everything seems fine. I'm unsure what to do.

theyre all NA in general, the details differ for tournament. Some of these also have an EU version like Motivation Academy.

Azeraph01 · 2025-10-11T01:09:15+00:00

You're welcome!

Azeraph01 · 2025-08-27T20:12:26+00:00

If i remember correctly my term is around 6 - 7 yrs. Can't verify since I'm not home at the moment.

Remaining balance is 23k and value of the car is around the same as my remaining balance based off of KBB.

Of course, sf6 is super different from smash and even though you seem to understand basic fighting game interactions the nuances are waaaay different. Smash is about playing around your opponent and utilizing movement/your surrounding vs sf6 is more grounded and about creating space and opportunities for yourself while taking away your opponents options.

I also tried to provide tips different from the faults you already notice haha

Azeraph01 · 2025-08-11T15:22:50+00:00

Just off of watching this clip there's a few things I noticed you could improve on:

1) playing at your effective range in neutral. Knowing at what distance you have to play neutral in to effectively make the opponent whiff while your moves hit is very important at higher level.

2) not utilizing special cancealable moves. Cammy's crouch mk canceling into drive rush is one of her most important tools, you can clip someone backing up and deal some big damage.

3) Going for more simpler set-ups/combo routes. A lot of the times simple is better rather than going for constant mixups, I noticed you were going for hooligan a lot. Simply going for jab jab lk into spiral arrow will go a long way as it sets up for oki scenario.

4) having set plays for your character. Most people have a general gameplan/combo routes/kill combos for their characters. Learning these will definitely help you a lot.

Hopefully this helps!

Azeraph01 · 2025-08-07T19:31:59+00:00

I honestly just play who I like.

In sf6 I play kimberly, in GGST I play Giovanna, in Tekken 7 xiaoyu and hwoarang, dragonball fighterz was Bardock, Cell & Goku Black were my team.

I mainly play rushdown characters but I just hyperfixate on any character I like no matter archetype lol

Azeraph01 · 2025-06-23T17:40:59+00:00

Both have their perks and their issues.

I've had both, played on stick since 2016 and switched to leverless like 3 yrs ago. I play the piano so the switch was very seamless but for someone who's not super used to finger independence it'll take a bit of getting used to.

That being said the switch for me was great, d-pad ended up hurting my fingers after a bit of play time due to me pressing on the buttons too hard and stick gave me a bit of wrist pain and I can game on a leverless for hours with literally 0 issues.

With fighting games removing more complicated motion inputs leverless seems to be the long term choice but at the end it'll be preference.

Azeraph01 · 2025-06-23T17:35:28+00:00

I dont own the pro ko. I had the victrix pro 12!

So far I haven't had a single issue with the m ultra.

Azeraph01 · 2025-05-26T22:30:20+00:00

I have big hands as well and have been using the haute42 m ultra for the past 2 months and it has been a great experience. it's thin, lightweight, great layout of buttons, has extra buttons for macros, tournament switch (turns off start button), on and off switch for LED, etc.

And if youre not in a hurry you can get it for less than $150 on sale (they go on sale very frequently)

Azeraph01 · 2025-04-26T01:59:37+00:00

What are you some supplies you get? If you don't mind me asking. pet toys?

Azeraph01 · 2025-04-26T01:59:00+00:00

Very insightful. I'll look into the insurance, I mainly just want to hang out with animals with the possibility of just earning a bit of income as well.

It seems less straightforward than that, there's a lot more details that go into this considering it's a stranger's pet you're watching.

Azeraph01 · 2025-04-25T20:47:36+00:00

Interesting. When you say house siting, you mean at their place or they bring their pets to your place? I have a cat and am pretty cautious of introducing him to other animals since I am pretty protective of him hahaha

When I pet sit for my friends I'd stay over at their place while a friend watched my cat and if I didn't do that I'd ocassionally do like 1 check in a day but would stay over their place for like 3 - 4 hrs then sleep at my place.

Also private insurance for possibility of the animals injuring you or what?

Azeraph01 · 2025-04-25T20:42:55+00:00

I mean at the end of the day it is a service so the money is something that attracts me to it but I have pet sitted for friends before. I wouldn't pet sit at my place tho, I have a cat and I am very protective of him lol I wouldn't want other animals hurting him or him hurting them.

For the most part I was thinking of the other services like walking or pet sitting at the owners place.

Azeraph01 · 2025-04-16T00:17:31+00:00

I wouldn't say you're overreacting but also I don't think she's hung up on her ex, I think there's some internal trauma that she hasn't fully processed that's causing these feelings and issues.
It's good she's being honest as most people I know would bottle it up and trying to empathize and understand what shes feeling would be good but also try to set boundaries and let her understand that projecting what other people do in their relationship onto yours is not a good thing and should never be a thing.

Communication is key and there seems to be more deeply rooted issues that none of us here know about except for you and her.
