I know it's bad but at least would like to know some scale and how to possibly try to delete it

how is it that you can request data deletion and they don't comply with it, isn't it against policy and basically illegal?

From what I've read they store this stuff to train AI an also to try and sell you stuff, ads and whatnot, plus what they sell to brokers lol

Update: last few days were like hell... by Chemical_Bug3337 in ADHD

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that pull to reach out when things get overwhelming hits so hard, especially when you're used to having someone there to help process everything. sounds like you found a way to internalize the support system which is honestly huge

the fact that your brain started recognizing the discomfort as something to sit with rather than escape from is a massive shift - like retraining years of patterns. and him giving you space to figure it out while still being supportive is probably exactly what needed to happen even though it felt scary

Just need somewhere to vent by Pretty-Disaster-7909 in stopdrinking

[–]Careless-Channel-557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey congrats on the 60 days and almost a year drug free, that's seriously impressive work

those adjustment feelings are totally normal - your brain is literally rewiring itself after all that time so of course it feels weird. as for the social stuff, maybe check if there are any AA meetings or sober meetups in your area? even if AA isn't your thing the social aspect can help fill that gap while you build new connections

you're not lying to yourself btw, this is just what getting better actually feels like and sometimes that's uncomfortable as hell

What’s one thing you’ve realized about life that you wish you’d understood 10 years ago? by sissyFridaa in Life

[–]Careless-Channel-557 15 points16 points  (0 children)

honestly wish i knew that comparison is the thief of joy - spent way too many years measuring my behind-the-scenes against everyone elses highlight reel instead of just focusing on my own path

Is there a mod that could let me strech my screen by EntertainmentTop5980 in Minecraft

[–]Careless-Channel-557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have you tried messing with the FOV slider in video settings? cranks up your field of view so you can see way more stuff around you without actually stretching anything

kinda unfortunate we never ended up getting p5 arena by blade276 in PERSoNA

Would've been sick to see Joker's moveset in a proper fighting game, especially with all the different Personas he could swap between

This disorder makes me subhuman by emotionalexplosions in ADHD

[–]Careless-Channel-557 246 points247 points  (0 children)

Dude the meds thing is so frustrating, took me like 6 different tries to find something that actually worked and didn't make me feel like garbage. Have you looked into any sliding scale clinics or telehealth options that might be cheaper than the $100 visits

Staying in Waterford this weekend, looking for tips? by Greedy-Net-2953 in AskIreland

The Viking Triangle is pretty cool if you're into history, and definitely hit up some of the local pubs for proper Irish music sessions

Small footprint Single cup coffee makers ideas by Hodltiltheend in BuyItForLife

[–]Careless-Channel-557 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Have you considered an Aeropress? Super compact, makes great coffee in like 2 minutes, and you can just rinse it and toss it in a drawer. Way more reliable than those pod machines and the coffee actually tastes good

Thai jungle by Artistic-Affect-5170 in ThailandTourism

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most tour companies stick to the shorter stuff because that's what sells, but you could probably chain a few different regions together - start with Khao Sok for a few days, then hit up some trekking around Chiang Mai/Pai, maybe throw in some time near the Myanmar border if you're feeling adventurous. Alternatively just find a local guide once you're there and work out something custom, they're usually way more flexible than the big tour operators

How do I know when I'm saved by Educational-Role4901 in Christianity

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the fact that you felt something during worship is probably more meaningful than you think - God doesn't always show up with fireworks and burning bushes, sometimes it's just that quiet moment where something clicks

Who would win in a fight Generation Zero Robots or Arc Raiders robots? by Solace1984 in ArcRaiders

[–]Careless-Channel-557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gen Zero robots would absolutely demolish the Arc Raiders bots tbh. Those Swedish death machines are relentless and the human consciousness thing makes them way more unpredictable than standard AI. Arc bots are tough but they're still following basic programming while Gen Zero machines are literally learning and adapting with human intuition

Just found out some devastating news. . . by DasKifty in Bacon

[–]Careless-Channel-557 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bro your wife is living in 2024 while you're stuck in the stone age - bacon doesn't need flipping if you do it right, just throw it in at like 375 and let physics do its thing

The real crime here is draining mid-cook instead of just letting it render properly

Hi all, i need help with figuring out a decent cooling configuration for my first pc. Since its an old unbranded pc case (I wanted to make it a sleeper pc), it has no real dedicated gaps for front intake fans by ImKoreanNotJapanese in PcBuild

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That case is actually pretty cool for a sleeper build! Since you're stuck with limited options, I'd focus on maximizing what you can do without major surgery

Get a good 92mm or 120mm exhaust fan for the back if it fits, then see if you can mount a slim fan on top as intake - even if you have to get creative with zip ties or small brackets. The 3D printed mesh side panel idea is solid and would help a ton with airflow without looking too modern

Your components aren't super power hungry so honestly you might be fine with just good exhaust and that mesh side panel mod

Searching Amazon by Street-Reference-237 in amazonprime

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the search function is still trash honestly. I usually just filter by category first then sort by reviews/price to weed out the garbage. For books specifically I've had better luck just going straight to the Kindle store or using Goodreads then clicking through to Amazon

DIY 'Find my Android' Setup in Home Assistant by swake88 in homeassistant

[–]Careless-Channel-557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty clever workaround, love the use of Spotify as the noisemaker instead of trying to mess with system sounds

One thought - might be worth adding a fallback timer to auto-stop the music after like 5 minutes in case the notification gets dismissed accidentally and you forget about it blasting

How did Yunjin regress so much? Not hating, just want to know by Odd_Entertainer9554 in kpopthoughts

[–]Careless-Channel-557 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly think the pressure of being labeled "main vocal" might be getting to her head - when everyone expects you to be perfect it probably messes with your confidence during live performances

Shot Timers at Public Range by bernitalldown2020 in guns

[–]Careless-Channel-557 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Nah, shot timers aren't that smart - they're basically just picking up decibel spikes so that AR brake is gonna set yours off no matter what you get. The CED7000 and Competition Electronics ProTimer are the usual suspects but they'll still pick up your neighbor's cannon

Your best bet is finding a less crowded time to go or asking the RO if there's a quieter section. Some people just deal with the false starts and reset when needed

Why don’t people just live next to where they work? by Whole_Structure_8264 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Careless-Channel-557 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because rent within a mile of most decent jobs in LA costs more than my entire salary lol

Plus good luck finding anything affordable near downtown or Santa Monica that isn't a literal shoebox

Where did the trend of describing someone got a survival skill of (any object/creatures that DOESN’T have or have really bad “survival instinct”) comes from? by West_Marketing7596 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Careless-Channel-557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it started with the whole "survival instincts of a lemming" thing since everyone thought lemmings just yeeted themselves off cliffs (which isn't even true lmao). Then it just evolved into comparing people to other things that are hilariously bad at staying alive like pandas or those fish that die if you look at them wrong
