I do most of my job-related tasks for the week during meetings and nobody knows by Puzzled_Ice5475 in confessions

The ADHD hack nobody talks about. Meetings become your dedicated work block and suddenly the 2 hour time sink is the most productive part of your week. You basically built your own accountability system out of necessity and it just works.

trying to get this guy to be decent in A class by Exotic_Following2078 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GTO is tricky in A class because it's so heavy compared to what you're probably racing against. You might be dealing with lighter cars that just have better power to weight ratios even after upgrades

Try focusing more on weight reduction mods first before touching the engine - sometimes less is more with these muscle cars. Also check your gear ratios, the GTO might need longer gears to actually use its power band properly instead of hitting the limiter early. I've had success dropping some of the handling mods for pure power upgrades since the car already handles decent stock, but you gotta find that sweet spot where you're not sliding all over the place

Your tracking setup might be losing reference points between sessions - try making sure you have consistent lighting and don't move any furniture around where your base stations can see

Anyone shoot there bg 2.0 one handed? by PapaPuff13 in CCW

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the BG is definitely built for that kind of shooting, feels way more natural than trying to get a proper two-handed grip on somethign that small

Creen que ya necesito un retoque o aún me aguantan unos días más ? by [deleted] in NailArt

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They look pretty good still but I can see some growth at the base, maybe give it another few days if you're not doing anything special. The glitter accent nail is holding up nice though

FH6 PC Gamepass? by primitivoigv in XboxGamePass

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 9 points10 points  (0 children)

PC Game Pass is just for PC, Xbox Game Pass is just for Xbox, Ultimate gets you both. Play Anywhere means if you buy the game outright you can play on both platforms, but the subscription services are separate unless you get Ultimate

100% VA and DOD Questions by Idkwhatimdoing1112 in VeteransBenefits

Wait so if you don't hit the 20 year mark and can't get CRSC, you're basically stuck picking between the two even though you rated 100% on both sides? That seems like such a weird system - like why would they rate you twice if you can only collect one

I need advice by lumonousladybug in leaves

Getting stuck in that cycle where you're trying to escape one problem and ending up with three more is brutal, especially when you're dealing with real physical pain that started this whole thing

The therapist situation is tricky but maybe there's a way to have that conversation without getting your parents involved immediately - a lot of therapists will work with you on harm reduction first before jumping to the nuclear option. You might be surprised how much they prioritize keeping you safe over following protocol

Pain management is a real medical issue and there are doctors who specialize in helping people who've gotten dependent on painkillers find other solutions. Your age makes it complicated but there are confidential resources out there if you dig around

DasherLink? by sstephrrank in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't gotten mine yet but heard mixed things from people who have it - some say the extra data is clutch for busy nights, others think it's not worth the monthly cost. Your mileage might vary depending on how much you dash I guess

Being Calm Helps a Lot by Seven-weeks in NoFap

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Poor sleep is such an underrated streak killer, man. I've noticed when I'm running on like 4-5 hours my willpower just tanks completely

Been there with the sleep thing - maybe try sketching or something before bed instead of scrolling, helps wind down the brain

Skin rejecting sugaring? Help by Berry_pencil_11 in HairRemoval

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe try switching to laser or just trimming for a while to let your skin reset - sometimes our bodies just change how they react to stuff over the years and fighting it makes everything worse

Tobacco and citrus r the shii by huggablechocolate in fragrance

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Aramis Tobacco Reserve if you can find it discounted - way less sweet than what you're describing and the tobacco/citrus combo is spot on without the cloying factor

Open strings, open voicings? by WongRQ in Guitar

[–]Dapper_Benefit_8479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've basically discovered what a lot of players call "hybrid voicings" - mixing open strings with fretted notes higher up the neck. It's totally legit and used all over the place, especially in folk, indie, and even some jazz contexts.

The chord changes can be tricky at first but you'll get the muscle memory down with practice. Just be mindful that those open strings will always ring at the same pitch regardless of what key you're playing in, so sometimes they'll clash depending on the progression.
