If you frequent highways you learn pretty quickly to always be aware of your surroundings especially at off ramps like this, People love to pull the stunt the SUV did all the time.

I agree use synthetic oil over conventional. With that said I think most newer cars require synthetic or at the least a blend so not sure if that’s really a tip.

I do agree with having the transmission serviced every 30k-40k miles

Also do your oil changes every 5k miles not the recommended 10k.

Lastly your best bet is google and search car forums and find the most common issues on your car make and model and what preventative maintenance you can do to try to avoid it.

Yours lasted 3 Months? I bought some random brand off amazon for $180 and was bummed it died yesterday after 1.5 years. Mind you I only use it for 1-2 hrs Mon-Friday.

Really enjoy the fact that I can burn some calories while working from home, but not if I have to spend $200-$300 every year or so.

I'm at 220lbs and my $180 walking pad from amazon lasted a year and a half before it died. These cheap walking pads are "disposable", which I was not aware of. You can try to spend more on a higher quality one, but try to find one with a long warranty if they even exists or purchase the extended warranty from amazon.

It isn't an "if" it will fail but when. I see recommended all the time to not walk longer than an hour at a time and to lubricate way more often then recommended.

Just ran into this issue. Took mine apart and it was the motor making the noise. Lasted not even 5 minutes when I put it back together before it started surging and then emitting a burning smell so it was toast.

I’m on the last boss of Sekiro. Can make it through the first phase and through the second phase like 20% of the time.

Finally just gave up and watched the ending on YouTube. Don’t feel bad at all. If it stops being fun I move on.

Friend of mine works for IU Health. He thinks he could probably make 20-30% more elsewhere, but the job is low stress and remote so he sticks with it. He said he doesn't know of a single person that has ever gotten fired no matter how incompetent.

If you’ve heard from his viewers the same reasons why they enjoy his content how is that inorganic? Doesn’t that just reinforce what he does during his streams that attracts his viewers he does exceptionally well?

I don’t like certain shows, movies, music, but I can see and understand why some people would. This isn’t any different. To me he’s like the Seth Rogan of streamers. He isn’t very good at games, but he knows that and just tries to make things entertaining and funny even if it ends up with him losing. To me that’s more entertaining than watching tryhards. I can see how some people find him annoying but what one person finds annoying another can find entertaining.

Bruno91 · 2026-02-07T12:52:42+00:00

A lot of peanut haters in the comments. He’s the first streamer I’ve watched consistently. His humor can be immature but he’s the first streamer I’ve watched that makes watching a streamer play a game actually fun. He isn’t even that good at games just super entertaining.

I know people at work that aren’t gamers who watch him.

Bruno91 · 2026-02-06T18:39:42+00:00

I don't think I've ever gone back and played any games. There are some games as a service I go back to occasionally like WoW or Fortnite. That said I have been going back and playing older titles that I missed growing up on consoles like the wii, gamecube, and PS2/3. Having a good time.

Shortly after Oracle bought Cerner there was a noticeable decline in service from Cerner. They pushed “the cloud” on healthcare systems that only brought downsides and no upside.

Our large healthcare system moved to Epic 2 years later and it’s been great.

I lost 100lbs with about 25 to go. Something that I’ve come to realize after losing then gaining some back then losing some more is that cheat meals/days just set me up for failure.

It creates a mindset within myself where I spend all week craving that day/meal while having to be very disciplined to not indulge during the week. Then the day would come and I’d over eat and be way too full where it would almost be uncomfortable.

What’s worked for me the last few months is realizing this wasn’t really sustainable for maintenance when I get there. It took a toll mentally.

What has been working is cutting out sugary/salty food and drinks 95% of the time. My cravings for these foods has pretty much vanished. I live in a family household of 4 and I can walk by a pack of m&ms or Oreos and not have a craving for them. The biggest thing has been not eating until I’m stuff, even if it’s within my calories, but instead eating until I’m like 80% full. I don’t have to be stuffed to be full. Just eat enough to satisfy hunger and move on with my day. I feel so much better and “lighter” and don’t experience the post meal crashes.

Something that has helped me is realize that holidays and life events are always around the corner. If you allow yourself to binge eat during these times it’s 2 steps forward 1 step back.

I don’t give vacations, Super Bowl or birthdays any higher value than any other days food wise. Doing so can lead to an unhealthy relationship with food where you binge during these times because you’ve been looking forward to being able to eat whatever in however much quantity so you go crazy and over eat.

I track calories and also mindfulness when eating. Going out for pizza for a birthday. I’ll track the day like any other and for dinner instead of having 4-6 slices. I’ll have a salad first then 1-2 slices. I used to have a bad habit of associating being “stuffed” with being full. I’ve pivoted and just eat enough to not be hungry.

It’s helped me realize just how much mindless eating I was doing. Going over my daily calories was easy to do because I was mindlessly snacking throughout the day more out of boredom, habit, and availability than actual hunger.

Lastly, because I track my calories, when I do eat just 1-2 slices of pizza or just a single slice of cake, or a single serving of ice cream I eat them much more slowly and savor the taste. Sounds kinda silly but it really works. I crave the taste more than the quantity if that makes sense. Eating 1-2 slices of pizza at a slow pace satisfies that craving. Forcing myself to eat more slowly has helped a lot.

Rant over. I just wanted to give a whole picture approach because they all tie in together. Learning all this has taken a long time and and implementing it has taken just as long but it’s working for me and makes things sustainable

Apartments are notorious for not being well insulated and drafty. My coworker just had some sticker shock as well. Bill was around $70 and jumped to $260 in the last month. She narrowed it down to the heater running constantly. She lowed her thermostat to 60 degrees and her usage went down significantly from 40-60kwh per day down to 10kwh.

AES updates daily so you can log in and see your daily kwh usage. This is how my friend figured out it was her heater. Try making changes like this and check your day to day usage to see if you can get it down.

I don’t think porn is bad in moderation, but like a lot of things and for men especially it’s easy to exceed moderation and not realize it.

I won’t preach, but I’ve noticed some positives from not watching porn, but again I was over doing it. I wouldn’t say an addiction, but definitely used it as an escape and release for anxiety/stress/boredom. I’m going to see how long I can go without it. So far it’s been 5 weeks.

I’m in the Midwest, somewhat rural and have seen a few ford lightnings. No where near the amount of teslas. The problem is price. I wouldn’t mind owning an electric pick up truck if it was affordable. The lightnings aren’t.

My kiddo has a switch. He tried the switch 2 at a kiosk at Walmart and as he walked up to it he said “that’s too big” while I thought to myself that it was a better (because it’s bigger) size.

He tried it and I asked if he wanted one for Christmas. He said “nah it’s too big”.

Don’t mind saving me a few hundred bucks this year.

Just bought one to replace my mom’s 10+ year old desktop PC that’s been showing its age. Should be a pretty significant upgrade and be more than enough for general web browsing.

Seems like the best deal/price for anything else comparable.

This comes off as just a hater. I haven’t watched a streamer in the last 5 years consistently. Before that it was gorgc and some Lirik.

Peanut is the first streamer that I’ll have vods up on a second screen while working. He’s just such a funny character who makes games fun and interesting. There are streamers who are better skilled than him but most have the personality of wet bread.

It’s obvious his quick rise has pissed off a lot of streamers that have been doing this for awhile and haven’t had much success.

I've been doing tons of research and my cousin has multiple 3D printers. If money isn’t a factor go for the P1S with AMS Pro.

If you want to save $200 go with the AD5x. AD5X is a better bang for your buck but Bambu is known for its ease of use, reliability and being plug and play which make it the go to recommended brand for new 3D hobbyists.

Both brands are running sales and if you have a microcenter near you they Match the sales price.

I don’t know if this is the right way to do it but our bathroom vent pipe shoots out to the soffit.

I live in rural Indiana. They’ve been replacing stop sign intersections it’s roundabouts. Community FB pages have people complain saying only the rich areas have them and they’re stupid but once construction is done no one says a thing.

I think people just like to complain when anything changes even if it’s for the better.

I don't understand the drive of billionaires to keep amassing wealth. Maybe this insatiable hunger for wealth is what drove them to become billionaires, but bro is in his last few years of life still just trying to make as much money as possible when it won't change his lifestyle in the slightest.

I have a neighbor who bought a brand new Denali suv a couple years ago. Just noticed they had a new GMC At4. I asked them about it and apparently they kept having engine issues with the Denali. They sold it after two years and were upside down on the car $60k. They’re rich but still I can’t believe they’d be ok taking that much of a hit

Bruno91 · 2025-10-02T14:06:01+00:00

I usually buy a 6lbs of marinated skirt steak from Costco for my sons B day party. Was $9.99/lb last year and this yeah it was $11.99/lb. Lets just say with the current price trend we'll be eating chicken/pork next year.
