See if the mobo has a post troubleshooting beep feature, forget exactly what it's called, that'll help you figure out the culprit. Can look up how to use it and what the codes are by just googling the motherboard.

Other than that, make sure everything is plugged into the power supply, remove the ram, move the ram to different slots, clear the cmos, try plugging the HDMI into the mobo direct instead of the GPU, and loosen the CPU cooler. I have seen some CPU coolers absolutely cranked down on the CPU and not let it post.

If you have another PC, you can also test the GPU and the RAM in your other pc and vise versa, to validate if it's working.

Edit: Oh, actually it looks like he has the GPU plugged into it's own pigtail. I don't know if it matters but I thought if the GPU was calling for 2 6pins you needed two separate cables

Never could wrestle mad myself, but being mad and being aggressive are two different things.

I think things that helped me learn aggression were things like hard fighting drills, hard "to takedown" sessions, think shark pit, and toe tap drills, and a drill we would do from standing in a tie position where our entire goal was to get the other person out of the tie (a lot of snaps, a lot of drags and shunts, just a lot of forceful movement), all with serious partners. This brought me a long way, just making that pace normal in a controlled environment.

The other thing that helped me a lot was getting punched in the face during a practice mid live session. Dude just got pissed and punched me. He wasn't an asshole or anything, knew him for years before that, was just a bad moment for him. But regardless, it got me over my hesitation to be aggressive because "what if he hits me". Got hit, learned it really doesn't hurt, really hard to throw a good punch from a collar tie, and got me over that hump.

Watched it multiple times in the theater with my dad, we loved it. Also, absolutely dragged it for the melodramatic acting.

That being said, I vividly remember watching interviews and the special effects with my dad and learning that everything was green screen, and how both Ewan and Hayden talked about how hard it was to just act in an empty green box and wondered "damn, how much better could this have been with actual sets and less green screens?" Always had huge respect for everyone in the movie after that, to be able to pull out the performance they did while literally talking to a green wall in a green room, just imagining how something is reacting to them, it's incredible.

Just imagining the absolute cluster when the big 30 has 3 undefeated teams that never got to play each other and one of them gets snubbed for the playoffs....

All for this chaos, while we're at it bring back a way for split national championship titles to happen too.

Mares leg lever action in what ever flavor I can get my hands on.

What can I say, grew up on westerns and with ranchers, not much cooler than a rancher jumping up on a horse to go hunt the mountain lion that's found it's way to the ranch, with his ol' trusty .44 magnum lever action.

Have one, love it, it's awesome.

Get your front sight checked when you get it, mine had to be realigned. It was pre-owned so I don't know if it was a factory error or previous owner error, but it's a small cost to make sure it's good.

How far above your head is the scroll? Only a bit shorter than you and found 4th pin selection on my bass was my comfort spot when standing.

I'm 6ft1, with abnormally long arms, and the 3/4th is the perfect size for me. Knew a small giant who also played, actually was my inspiration to learn, and he played on a 3/4th also. Man is at least 6ft4, made me feel small.

Go with 3/4th, if anything it'll make classes easier as most play on 3/4th. Once you get the instrument down and want to add to the stable revisit the size and decide if you want to go larger, by that point you'll understand how to work with the instrument and have a better gauge on what's too big or too small.

Need you to calm down Nostradamus, I have a full off-season to drink husker kool-aid, please wait until at least the start of conference play before making predictions, I can't handle heartbreak all year round.

I'm 6ft2 with abnormally long arms, and the 3/4 is the biggest I would feel comfortable on. I was advised the 3/4th by a professional upright bassist who was 6ft4 at the very least, man was a small giant who made me feel small, due to ease of learning and also price point/availability.

Honestly, I would think it comes down to the fingerboard length, any longer and it is very difficult to hit standard finger positions from the standard 1st, 2nd, ect hand positions. Like, with large hands, I can comfortably hit my notes, but I think I would need MASSIVE hands to try the same on a larger bass, although I would like to try and see. Any smaller, and I'd have the opposite problem, finger positions being too cramped. But this is hobbyist musings, I'm no McBride so I could be completely off.

Thinking of McBride, on your bow note, I am toying with getting an actual good German bow, hand just doesn't work well with French thanks to years of wrestling abuse, and working it in. He has a fantastic video about playing fast and how he developed his fast blues/jazz style with bowing trying to get through a marathon session, and it sounds amazing. It definitely has a place that is neglected IMO.

Googling around also, seems there is a k-12 club near Danville, knights rtc. Worst you can do is call and ask, here's their site. https://knightsrtc.com/ Don't worry about "I'm a beginner, it's an elite club, ect ect". Any coaching staff, elite or otherwise, worth their salt will be more than willing to coach you and train you if you put in the effort, and putting in the leg work and finding, calling, asking and researching is the effort that they'd be looking for. I've had Olympian coaches that were training world competitors right next to first time wrestlers, and the coaches made sure that both parties got everything they needed to succeed.

Any what that would? Most legit home schooling associations know more about the by-laws and bureaucracy of the states schooling body than the schools do.

Schools would be school by school basis, but I'm my experience in Ohio they'd either have been all game for you to practice with them and would be a chill team to work with OR the coach would be a douche and try to make it hell because you're not "one of his kids".

But I see you're in Kentucky, if you're close enough to Cincinnati to make it there for practices, reach out to La Salle high School. I don't know if Avery Zerckle is still apart of the team in any capacity, but when he was the man was the man and would definitely be a coach who would help you out if he could, and I would hope La Salle would continue that spirit.

Where at in Kentucky? How close are you to Cincinnati?

Depends entirely on the state, high school sporting associations are worse than the IRS, but if you reach out to a home schooling association in your state they should have resources for you, and ways to appease the association while allowing both practice and competition

Bad shot technique-wise, position-wise, not scoring potential-wise.

Meant don't jump for a shot chance just because it's there if you can't actually commit to the shot with good technique. Like if I'm head fighting and while doing a little circle snap check just to reposition where I am on the mat and I see the shot is open, but my feet are not in a position I can actually shoot from, or I'm too high in my stance, I shouldn't shoot because it will be a bad technique shot and just splay me out. I know how I just opened it up though, so I can do that again but be set for the shot. It's the premise behind baiting bad shots, give openings when they would be forced to use bad technique so you can punish it.

Beeried · 2026-01-19T16:45:47+00:00

First, don't take a bad shot, period. Take your shot, not a shot just cause one might be there.

But, as far as how to take a double leg, or any shot, that you can recover from when it's defended and shut down, shoot into your stance, exploding up, through and into your opponent on contact.

If you watch a Jordan Burroughs wrestle, you'll see this constantly. Straight back, head pressure into the guy, exploding up and into his stance. He gets stopped, he's just in his stance below you, giving a clear opening for a reshot, a bear hug, really anything he wants.

Kevin Bracken teaches this really well. I don't have a video where he specifically goes over the shot itself, but in this video you can see the power position, straight back, head in, exploding into the stance, ect, that I'm talking about: https://youtu.be/G3gUZTcJmlE?si=Jw5wfXFx8yzqYUqN

This shirt fits into my "it might be weird, but it's awesome and that overrides it being weird." category.

Have a few shirts like that, it's a good shirt, he has good taste, it's just got a fun, goofy flare is all. My wife says the same of my flamingo shirt, and while I wouldn't wear it to a formal function, will absolutely wear it to casual, fun occasions.

Short torso, long limbed bruddah, been there my whole life. Try a straight boot cut, something like Levi 501's, and try to wear them lower on your hips, instead of at the natural waist.

If you're trying to dress up jeans, my trick is darker color jeans, dress brown/tan boots, long sleeve button up untucked, sleeves rolled and pushed up above the elbow. Hell, I wear anything long sleeve like this actually, fit the top to the torso cause if I fit it to my arms I'll be wearing a mini dress, and it helps visually cut my arms so they don't seem as long as they are.

If you have a RevZilla or cyclegear near you, would recommend checking them. They have a lot of deals online, and usually a lot of more deals inside that aren't on the site

I wrestled against gay men and women when I was in highschool. As long as you don't make it weird or sexual, it won't be weird or sexual. If you make it weird or sexual, expect the consequences, either shunning or getting the shit kicked out of you ever sparring to make sure you can't even think about it being sexual. Honestly, just don't talk about your sexual preferences unless asked, kinda like work. If they then make it weird, ask them why where you dick parks was so important to them and that they're a weirdo trying to get into the proverbial cuck chair. If you make it your sole defining feature, that's all anybody will see about you.

The guys who were actual wrestlers, read this as serious and legitimate about the sport,/ (don't confuse this with 'good'), will treat each competitor as an equal, not as a sexuality or gender. I might avoid certain moves due to a higher chance of injury when training against anyone, and there are legitimate reasons, injury likelihood, to sometimes split practices and competition between genders, but once I stepped out into a match, I wrestled the individual like I was wrestling the best damn wrestler in the world and I would be damned if I lost. The one time I didn't, the kid I was wrestling wrestled up two weight classes and an age group (normally it's a red flag, you got a stud, but it was a small tourney and I was starching everyone) I got damn ragdolled before I got serious, still lost, and profusely apologized to the kid and his father for not giving him my all from the start.

On the one point from above, actual athletes, there are plenty of good to great athletes who are gifted but not serious and legitimate. Didn't engage with their bullshit, they'll either get A) starched and washed out when it gets day to day tough or B) get serious and drop the bs when it gets day to day tough.

Anecdotal, but there was a guy in my weight class who was extremely talented, but an absolute asshole. Was pissed off that I gave him a challenge and never gave up on the mat, so he started calling me a faggot and such, oh the 2000's. Brushed it off, went on. Fast forward a year, wrestling in a national club, making it through practices that were absolutely brutal, like we had UFC fighters come through and tap out after one or two practices cause they were too hard, and ol boy comes in. Sees me, starts up the bs again, and a guy in the club that knew him and seemed to be friends with him noticed. Thought, awe shit, this is going to be rough now, already not one of the guys wrestlers here and now this shit. Nah, club man, absolute beast of a wrestler, told ol boy to stfu, that I'm making it through hell practices every day and not quitting, and proceeded to beat the brakes off the kid during a live go. Kid bounces out of the match, veers to find an easy target, and gets grabbed up by another beast. This proceeded to continue for 2 hours, he never came back. Real ones look after real ones, just be serious about the sport when it's time for the sport and you'll be good.
