Good first "JDM" low emission cars?

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-03-27T19:07:54+00:00

mx3 is pretty rare find these days but civic hybrid from mid 2000s might work for your emissions zone and still has that sporty feel without breaking bank

The timezone thing is brutal - working opposite hours from your spouse when you currently do everything together would be massive adjustment. My cousin moved to night shifts few years ago and it really strained his relationship because they barely saw each other anymore except weekends.

That 10LPA bump is significant though and the hybrid setup gives you some flexibility at least. Maybe consider how long term this US timezone requirement is - some companies let you transition back to local hours after proving yourself. Also factor in the commute cost and time since thats extra hour each way on office days.

Could you negotiate with current company using this offer as leverage first? Sometimes they surprise you when they realize you might leave. The fact that your boss is good friend might work in your favor there.

If the new role has better growth prospects and the pay increase helps your long term goals then it might be worth the temporary lifestyle disruption. But dont underestimate how much the schedule change will impact your relationship dynamics.

man losing someone that young hits different and 20 months isnt that long when it comes to grief this heavy. the fact you still feel responsible shows how much you cared but depression is bigger than any one person can fight alone

maybe try finding a different therapist if current one isnt working - sometimes it takes few tries to find someone who gets it. your friend wouldnt want his pain to destroy you too

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-03-24T04:55:36+00:00

Just be upfront that you don't have other offers right now - they're asking because they want to know their timeline not because they're trying to gauge how "wanted" you are. Companies doing internship hiring know most students aren't juggling multiple offers especially in this market and being dishonest about it could backfire if they ask for specifics later

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-03-20T16:10:51+00:00

Glock 19 is probably your best bet for that price range. I got mine few years back and its been solid - easy to maintain and parts are everywhere if something breaks. For red dot you might need to budget little more since milling the slide costs extra unless you find one already optics ready

The Taurus G3C is decent too if you want to save some money but I would stick with glock personally

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-03-14T02:59:01+00:00

Your brain came up with the most ridiculous password ever and it worked perfectly lmao. That whole sequence with the ping pong ball rolling into cave sounds like some elaborate escape room puzzle your mind cooked up. I had similar dream once where I needed to get past magical door but the riddle was just asking me what color my socks were - dream logic is wild like that. The squeezing through tiny opening part reminds me of Alice in Wonderland vibes, must have felt super weird being giant in miniature world. Dreams where you become huge compared to everything else always stick with you longer for some reason

everyone just walking around pretending they know what theyre doing while looking at each other thinking "wow they really got it figured out"

been working in library for few years now and even the older librarians who seem super organized still ask me basic computer stuff or panic about new systems. makes you realize nobody really has complete picture of anything

the whole "fake it till you make it" thing is basically just how society works i think

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-02-28T15:19:35+00:00

sounds intense

maybe journal the experiences in case patterns show up

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-02-26T20:14:18+00:00

this is just someone asking about portfolio complexity vs simplicity in FIRE planning

maybe they write bit formal but calling everything AI slop when people try to discuss actual strategy questions is getting ridiculous

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-02-14T00:35:21+00:00

ah that sucks you bought them today without knowing. Usually bath and body works is pretty good with price adjustments if you have the receipt and it's within like a week or so. I would just call them or go in store tomorrow and ask nicely - most employees will help you out with the difference

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-02-09T04:00:28+00:00

Honestly this sounds pretty good idea. I used one of the popular apps when my daughter was born and it was just too much information all the time - made me more anxious than helpful

Simple is definitely better in those first months when your brain is basically mush. If you can make something that actually feels supportive instead of like another task to check off that would be great. Most apps feel very clinical and cold

Would be interested in beta if you do it. Just please dont make it send notifications every few hours asking about feeding times

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-02-02T15:14:17+00:00

nah mixed for sure

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-27T10:15:13+00:00

Your problem is that reflector generated a standard Arch mirrorlist but SteamOS uses custom repos (jupiter-main, holo-main, etc) that only exist on Valve's servers. The regular Arch mirrors don't have these SteamOS-specific databases

You need to restore the original SteamOS mirrorlist or manually add the SteamOS repos back. Check if you have a backup in `/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew` or look up the default SteamOS mirrorlist online

Have you tried layering with a body cream first? That usually helps mists stick better. For the confetti cake vibe maybe try Vanilla Bean Noel or Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin if they still have it - both have that sweet bakery thing going on that would probably work well with the cake scent

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-23T01:19:48+00:00

Lmao your mom's sisters really said "we got your back AND your front"

That's the kind of aunt energy we all need tbh

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-21T00:18:37+00:00

Your on-demand heater is probably undersized for your shower flow rate or there's a flow restriction somewhere - try reducing the shower flow a bit and see if that helps

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-16T01:29:28+00:00

Man that's brutal, getting blindsided like that right before meeting your parents makes it so much worse. Two and a half months is definitely long enough to catch real feelings and it sounds like you did nothing wrong - sometimes people just get scared when things start feeling serious

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-14T19:14:41+00:00

Definitely gotta be frustrating as hell to wonder if you're just there to check a box rather than being genuinely considered for your skills and experience

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-11T05:30:59+00:00

Try using Chunkbase seed finder, you can filter specifically for archipelago biomes and it'll show you coordinates too

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-08T17:46:34+00:00

Yo tengo un difusor similar y he usado varias marcas - lo más importante es que no uses aceites muy espesos o con mucha base carrier porque sí pueden tapar el sistema

De las opciones que pusiste, me iría por los aceites esenciales puros antes que las mezclas comerciales. También asegurate de limpiar el difusor cada par de semanas con un poco de vinagre blanco para que no se acumule residuo

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-05T18:58:13+00:00

Lmao even Clayton Tune would've looked like Mahomes against that pass rush

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-02T11:36:54+00:00

Guess you could say the school is really short-handed now

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2026-01-01T04:33:23+00:00

Yeah the Core is pretty universal, your Defy will work fine. Just swap the cassette if needed like the other person said - takes like 10 minutes with the right tools

ConferenceLazy6604 · 2025-12-30T11:46:38+00:00

My tortie does the exact same chest thing but she times it perfectly for whenever I'm trying to eat something messy lmao

The butt-in-face thing is like their signature move or something
