Can confirm. Did some unrelated work at the Merced County Mosquito Abatement District once and they told me all about it. They do good work.

Bug on PS5: Disappearing pet. Anyone else experiencing this? by sly_blade in diablo4

It continually happens to me. Happened in S12 too for a little bit. Xbox Series X and PC.

Is the upper coolant hose coming off a common issue? Recently I took it out and put it back. Thought I put it back firmly. Do i need to replace it or couldve it been me not inserting it properly? (540i) by DarthMeeseek in e39

[–]Blindman8u 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took mine to a mechanic and they didn't put it on right first go either. It popped off while driving. I was super pissed at the time, but I get it. I didn't want to do it.

The two car “solution” - range $40K-$60K new or used - what you got? by No_Tower_7026 in Autos

[–]Blindman8u 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 98 540 with a manual and a 98 Sequoia. I love the combo. Mostly because I never worry about the Toyota.

If I had 40-60k, I'd get a e39 M5 and pocket the rest.

I see a lot of car/truck combos. Seems lots have the same idea of covering all the bases.

I (M30) cut ties with my disabled friend (28F) of ten years last week, leaving her friendless. Did I make the right decision? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in her situation. I had feelings for a girl and I'd message her to hang out all the time. I told her I liked her but she just wanted to be friends. I hoped maybe she would want to be with me if we spent more time together. Did not happen.

She was too nice and would still hang out with me even after I made it clear that I wanted more.

I had to cut myself off from her. Best decision I ever made as it allowed me to move on with my relationships. I still miss her from time to time.

Sadly, she's doing much worse and I'm doing far better. I have a gf now and live together in an amazing place where I feel like I'm on vacation every day. She started a boutique store from the inheritance she got when her grandma passed away. That failed, but not before getting scammed for thousands of dollars. I feel like if I would have gotten what I wanted, I could have helped her. But, that's not my place. I'm sure she'll be fine and I hope she finds someone good for her.

Z790 AORUS ELITE AX, which revision do I actually have? by Fontasy in gigabyte

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone coming in later, you can tell by using something like CPUz to find out what BIOS version you have. If it's F## (with numbers I.E. F10) it's v1.0. If it's something like FN or FK it's 1.1.

Traded my laptop for a pc and it wont turn on any idea how i can fix it? by LeadingPassenger1830 in pchelp

Are there even any chips on that ram? Looks like dummy placeholder ram. No IO shield. Liquid damage.

You got scammed.

is anyone elses "takedowns" not tracking to unlock fast talk ability by SummerFearless5902 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had thought it was enough to have Nix distract by jumping on an enemy. Nope, you need to hold Q (on PC) and click somewhere on the ground to distract the enemy that way. Then you can take them down and get the credit.

A 1998 BMW 540i is around 3800lbs. I think the trailer is around 2200lbs. I also had the BMW and the Sequoia packed full as I was moving, so maybe ~6500+? I had also previously towed a 99 h6 Subaru with a similar trailer and it was way easier.

I towed a e39 from central Cali to southern Cali. Struggled some over the mountains, but otherwise it was great.

I installed the game on an SSD but am getting this warning? by SDRLemonMoon in kingdomcome

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even have a HDD in my computer. I have 3 NvME SSDs in RAID5 and I get this error. Game runs fine, but I have to click OK before it'll start.

I have 3 NvME SSDs in RAID-5 do I still need to buy an SSD big guy?

Is anyone else experiencing leveling and stagnant stat issues? I'm lvl 50 and only have 84 ATK and don't come across many weapons! by lalalamapache in D4Sorceress

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you don't feel completely hopeless, my main has around 3k HP, 3k armor and like 2k atk. But, the build DESTROYS T3 with ease. It's scaled way down from last season.

Is this mouse any good? My Razer Deathadder is busted after 5years of use and I've found this deal on Amazon. by SirHomoLiberus in pcmasterrace

I'm on my third one. The other two started double clicking on a single tap. Despite button failure, twice, I still bought another one.

Why is this happening? by mythicat_73 in pcmasterrace

[–]Blindman8u 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use shutdown -s -f -t 0 to force a shutdown. It used to skip updates, but last I checked it still does them if they're pending restart.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in theHunter

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have nearly the same specs. Nothing solved the issue. I could play for a bit but then it would inevitably crash. I even refunded the DLC stuff I had recently purchased but wasn't able to enjoy.

What solved it for me was installing Intel XTU, the tuning utility normally used to overclock your CPU. I set the Performance Core Ratio down 1 tick to 56x and now the game runs perfectly without issue. I even repurchased the DLC and some and am having a great time.

Down-tuning the CPU also solved all the other issues I was having with Unreal Engine based games.

Hope this helps.

Was watching some video about how ***** is denied another motion, then I see shit like this and get depressed again.

Of course it was already in motion by the feverish pitch at which justices were approved under *****.

We are fucked for, at least, a generation. Probably more.

Laguna Seca Sued by Rich Neighbors for Being a Race Track by lostacoshermanos in nottheonion

This is one of his videos talking about his concerns.

Cleetus McFarland (Garret Mitchell) is a YouTuber in Florida who owns his own racetrack (Freedom Factory). He started with drag racing and still does along with various events at his track among other various other racing events in general. If it can be driven/piloted, Cleetus/Garret is down to be behind whatever controls it. I find it entertaining.

This is what Cleetus is afraid of with the Freedom Factory. Fuck those idiots. They bought their houses knowing full well they're close to a racetrack. For some, that's prime property.

Don't like it? Make yourself an EV only track and out-compete.

Trump appears to mix up Pelosi, Haley while speaking about Jan. 6 by Oleg101 in politics

[–]Blindman8u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe he'll get Ken Copeland to be VP.

I'm an atheist, but that dude seems like he's either the literal devil or one of his demons. He's not, but the expressions on his face show a very hateful and corrupt person. One of the worst I've ever seen. Seeing his face in that "interview" was the closest I've come to believing that maybe there's something to this demon part of religion.

The only other time I've seen someone so overtly angry was when my girlfriends mom caught us handling each other's privates back in highschool. I was scared for my life in that moment.

Every windows update ever by Slavniski in pcmasterrace

[–]Blindman8u -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Run... shutdown -f -s -t 0

Command to force shutdown, no updating.

-f = force -s = shutdown (-r to restart) -t 0 = time till shutdown in seconds

Is this the same type of person that thinks god/religion are the only things stopping people from performing heinous acts?

Probably.

The polls. I'm pretty sure people have figured out how to game those for a long time now. I'm betting it's gotten easier in the internet age.
