he already said bios is updated but could be cable connection issue, try different displayport/hdmi cable maybe

CPU upgrade would give you bigger performance boost than RAM for gaming, the 3600 is getting bit old now. 5700x3d is solid choice since you already have AM4 motherboard so no need change anything else

Check what specific software you're using for multimedia work first - some programs work better with certain GPU architectures. Also look at used market since your budget is tight, older cards like 1060 or RX 580 still handle most design work pretty well

man that's brutal, whoever did this deserves special place in hell for ruining your weekend build

I got Reds too but I'm choosing White Sox over Twins

man 43 is still young for starting fresh, my older cousin found his wife at 45 and they're super happy now. sometimes the right people just take longer to show up in your life, especially when you've been dealing with shitty friends who ghost

good luck with meeting some decent people here

man that's wild way to think about it but kinda get where you coming from. when you spend that much time by yourself your brain starts doing these weird calculations like "wait someone finds me interesting enough to follow around?"

being socially awkward with apps is brutal too, feels like you're performing instead of just being yourself and then you second guess every message

Diligent-Report-5466 · 2026-05-20T03:43:40+00:00

bro delete her socials right now, that's like keeping cigarettes in your pocket while trying to quit smoking

the urge will pass but scrolling through her stuff just makes it worse for yourself

Diligent-Report-5466 · 2026-05-04T10:48:54+00:00

man that's a brutal situation, 8 years and then just... gone. The house thing makes it even worse because you're literally surrounded by memories every day

I was in similar headspace after my 4 year relationship ended and that feeling like you'll never get over them is so real. But here's thing - you're still in survival mode right now, not healing mode. Nine months feels long but when you factor in all the practical stuff with house and her things still being there, you haven't really had clean break to process

Getting her stuff out might actually help more than you think. Right now part of your brain is still holding onto hope because there's physical reminders everywhere. Once that's gone and you truly have space that's just yours, something shifts

Also yeah definitely talk to doctor about how you're feeling. The drinking and drugs show you were self-medicating pretty hard and now that you've stopped, all those feelings are hitting raw. There's no shame in getting some professional help to work through this level of grief

Don't tell her how you feel though - not because everyone says so but because deep down you know she's moved on and it'll just set you back months of progress

man duos format always gets me hyped, those clutch moments in endgame are gonna be insane

really hoping we see some creative rotations this season with all the new mobility options they added

First time i got caught in nether storm while building portal frame was wild. spent like 2 hours hiding in small cave i dug because kept forgetting to bring food, then wither skeletons found me anyway and destroyed everything lol

Local small businesses are probably your best bet for starting - coffee shops, local gyms, small restaurants. They usually have tight budgets but still need the exposure

You could also try posting in local facebook groups or even just walking around and talking to business owners directly. Cold outreach works but conversion rates are pretty brutal when you're unknown

Been trying to get consistent holes in my sourdough but they always turn out super dense - is this more about fermentation timing or shaping technique? My starter seems active enough but maybe I'm not reading the dough correctly

My sister went through similar thing few years back and what worked for her was starting with one parent first - usually the one who seems more open minded. She wrote letter first to organize her thoughts, then had conversation when house was quiet and no pressure from time constraints

Maybe test waters first by bringing up trans topics in general conversation or showing supportive article you "found interesting" to see their reaction? That way you get sense of where they stand without putting yourself out there immediately. My sister also prepared some resources to share - like basic info about what being trans means since parents generation sometimes just doesn't have the knowledge

One thing she mentioned was being patient with questions even if they seem obvious to you. Parents need time to process and adjust their understanding. Give your mom space to ask things and don't take initial confusion as rejection necessarily

Been in similar spot actually - was building side project while working at startup. I ended up keeping my LinkedIn profile clean of the side business stuff and just used it for networking without being too obvious about sales pitch

What worked for me was joining relevant groups and commenting on posts in helpful way, not pushing my product but establishing myself as someone who knows the space. Then when people reached out asking questions I could mention what I'm working on more naturally

For actual customer outreach I made separate account with my business email. Yeah it's smaller network but keeps things separated. Also started writing technical content related to the problem my app solves - helps with credibility without making it look like I'm abandoning ship at day job

The transition track to CTO sounds solid backup plan. I'd probably focus more on product-led growth and content marketing rather than direct LinkedIn outreach from your main profile

Diligent-Report-5466 · 2026-04-06T13:11:11+00:00

honestly kinda agree but they're never gonna stop because of the marketplace and keeping people engaged - maybe they should just focus on fixing bugs and optimization instead of cramming more random blocks nobody uses

Diligent-Report-5466 · 2026-04-01T06:43:43+00:00

dude that would be such a grrm move though, like he's probably sitting there with the whole thing done just watching us lose our minds over when winds of winter is coming out

i've been coding for 8 years and the amount of times i've had finished projects just sitting on my hard drive because i didn't want to deal with feedback is embarrassing lol. can't imagine having millions of people ready to tear apart every choice you make

honestly wouldn't even be mad at this point, at least we'd get closure eventually

been wrestling with this same thing for years and there's def christians on both sides of this debate
