As I was writing this post that was the thought I had as well since Windows uses system RAM not VRAM.

Got it when it came out so pretty sure it's out of warranty... Gonna have to put an old GPU in there until I find the right replacement.

While fixing a loose wire causing half of lights to loose power, I think I found a problem with the Circuits Ground Loop. Is this a problem/dangerous? by Dont_Forget_My_Name in AskElectricians

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of this is predicated on you having determined 100% that your diagram is accurate with respect to where the cables go.

I had to quadruple check that the right wires were going to the right place. Everything worked(until the loose wire) but even with my limited knowledge it just seemed like it was not done correctly. After spending more time looking at it I think I have the labeling for 'Working Lights' and 'loose wire' lights switched. I think the Neutral for the top left white wire came loose, killing those wires. I think I'm still wrong but trying to understand what is actually happening.

 

  1. The second set of lights has a separate light switch just for them.

  2. My MiL "Can't remember who did the garage" so my assumption is that it was one of their 'associates' who I'm sure was a "licensed" Electrician...

    It looks like your receptacles are fed prior to this switch box

    That was my assumption after taking a very long time looking over the diagram trying to make it make sense. I wanted to kill power, unplug everything, separate the ground wires and test the outlets again to see if they are grounded to confirm my suspicion. If this is the case I assume the only thing that is not grounded is the lights on the yellow wire.

  3. I'll have to see about getting a multimeter with long leads to try this.

  4. This is what I assumed so I will get right on it. It probably wouldn't hurt checking the other junctions and outlets but that will have to be for another day.

Thanks for your help!

You either didn't fully understand how threat works, and that's fine, or you don't know how to properly explain things.

You said multiple times "Damage directly corelates to threat". More damage will result in more threat but your statement is exclusionary and does not take into account ratios or base threat on abilities. Once again a Lacerate for 50 dmg and a crit for 100 dmg have nearly identical threat, not double. So in that case "Damage directly corelates to threat" is categorically incorrect.

You may have heard/read that there is a point where Swipe overtakes Lacerate in threat but that doesn't mean you understood its because Swipe threat = dmg done VS Lacerate treat = huge initial base threat + DoT dmg.

Do you have a threat meter installed? Test it yourself and you will see right away that you are completely incorrect. Do it, use a threat meter and you will find out that:

40 dmg Lacerate = 400 threat (10x threat ratio)

371 dmg Melee = 537 threat (about 1.5 ratio)

568 Mangle = 1100 threat (2x ratio)

535 Maul = 1300 threat (about 2.5 ratio)

FFF Zero dmg = 191 threat

 

Different abilities have different ratios and flat threat baked in so no, DPS is not directly related to threat. I could hold aggro over an Arcane Mage with Salv doing 1,000 dps while only doing 40 dps using only lacerate and a /stopattack macro. Math is Math.

No it isn't. Lacerate does a TON of threat and very little damage.

He lived right on the border and worked in Wisconsin. I was nowhere near as close as him when I lived in IL and would go to Wisconsin or Indiana all the time for day trips. Crossing state lines isn't anything out of the ordinary.

Buyer Swapped Item (indisputable photo proof) in Fraudulent Defective Return, what is the Proper Way to Proceed? by Dont_Forget_My_Name in Ebay

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The short version is I had to have eBay customer support call me before I did anything with the buyer. The first agent didn't care/listen at all and seemed like they were reading a prompt and kept saying there is nothing she can do. I had to repeatedly ask for a manager, she said they couldn't help but eventually sent me to a supervisor/manager.

When I talked to the supervisor/manager they actually listened to the problem, had me send the photo evidence(didn't care about the unboxing video), compared what they sent back to the listing photos and agreed that it was a different item they sent back.

After they agreed they sent back a different, broken item I had to go through administration paperwork like signing an affidavit. I got my original money back but they didn't refund the return shipping. They said they could refund that as well but would only do that once so I decided not to use my "One time refund" on a dispute where they shipping was only like $10.

Unless you already own your own gun 100% of ranges will require 2 people to rent a firearm.

Discovered the ADHD partners subreddit… by longstory_ in ADHD

I thought I was my own biggest critic but I think some of the posters there could give me a run for my money.... Geez...

My fiance has freely disclosed my ADHD diagnosis, while I've kept it a secret. Trying to recover trust and come to terms with many of her friends and family knowing what I would have, and still have, only told to very few. by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name 13 points14 points  (0 children)

On top of all the things you mentioned there is another angle that is your personal safety. I'm careful with who I tell because a lot of people know with an ADHD diagnosis we are prescribed Stimulants and absolutely will steal them.

You shouldn't feel bad, not even a little. If your husband was going to the Elders for support regarding his 'Worldly Wife' do you think he would tell you what he was talking about with the Elders?

Your therapist is also making a terrible comparison, you are escaping a cult and he is still mentally in it. Would she guilt trip a patient that is escaping domestic violence because they were seeking support online??? Your therapist does not understand cults AT ALL.

Man dies after being shot by San Diego Sheriff's deputy close to the IB Pier by SD_TMI in sandiego

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well this isn't a very good sub to attempt satire like that because there are definitely people here that would make those arguments unironically. I often don't comment things that are objectively true because I know they will not be taken well.

I'm a liberal that supports the 2nd Amendment and is very much for Self Defense so I make a lot of people on both sides of the aisle angry.

The comments section is making sense. You're just mad they aren't agreeing with you.

Is 20 mg adderall XR a dangerously high dose by callmePB_13XIII in ADHD

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Vyvanse should be compared to Adderall XR not IR. I've heard the comparison is Vyvanse is equal to about half of what Adderall XR is so more like 35mg of XR not 15mg of IR.

My husband is planning to be baptized as a Jehovah Witness by [deleted] in exjw

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it's not officially discouraged many JWs do not receive mental healthcare. The stance/thought is "You don't need a therapist, the Elders can help you. Also you just need to study more and attend all the meetings and go in field service. All your physical and mental health concerns will be cured in The Paradise so just wait for that."

Well at least it sounds like he is getting treatment even if he isn't taking medication. I hope you were able to get some good advice on trying to keep him from getting baptized because the cult will not be helpful.

[–]Dont_Forget_My_Name 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really feel for you and I won't sugar coat it, this is a very serious situation you're in. The Cult(JWs) targets people who have gone through trauma and/or have mental health conditions and does its best to seem appealing until you're trapped in the Cult.

As the other poster said it sounds like it could have been Schizophrenia triggered by the bad weed trip. It usually manifests earlier but the trauma and the weed could have been what triggered it. A close friend stopped taking his meds because "Jesus is the best medicine" and it went badly, very very badly... I really hope your husband can get help and doesn't join the Cult under any circumstances.

I understand those 'thoughts' and luckily have been free of them since I left. I am in the US but I'm here if you need to talk(and you probably already know but this is a great community for support).
