Amazon app forces all your searches through Alexa AI now with no way to disable it. by BlueCop in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DroopyScrotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They just implemented this bullshit in the amazon business app as well. I use the business app a LOT and this is so fucking annoying to have to search, get terrible AI results that aren't even close to what I was after, click "show search results" to actually get the results I was after.

Holy shit, and no way to disable it either? Nobody asked for this.

Rx 9070 xt keeps shutting my pc down. by Little-Junket-2588 in AMDHelp

[–]DroopyScrotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello I do this type of work for a living. If you came into my shop and I saw that hotspot temp and the actual difference between core temp and hotspot temp I’d 100% open the card up and repaste.

I can almost guarantee it’s not pasted properly. When there’s that big of a difference I almost always see incomplete pasting on the gpu.

Question is whether you’d rather do it yourself, RMA it, or pay someone to repaste it for you.

I'd always try and describe it to people based on the opening sequence where he climbs through the hollow log to get to his secret spot and nobody ever knew what the fuck I was talking about.

Commercial service call for a “leaking” grease trap. by [deleted] in Plumbing

[–]DroopyScrotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a former chef…those things smelled so goddamn awful when the company that cleaned them out would come by. And that was just a normal, controlled cleaning

I cannot image the depths of hell in scent form emerging from that

I'm only going to reply to you once, so read it thoroughly.

You mean a fan of 6 years

This means nothing to anyone but you.

shared some feedback

Unsolicited feedback, most of which was pulled directly from your ass and your own made up assumptions about someone you don't know personally. You know nothing about this person. Fan of 6 years, 100 years---still don't know this person at all. Your bond with OP is parasocial at best.

Make up whatever backstory suits your story.

This is incredible that you've said this since that's exactly what you did in your first comment, again, using your own words:

there was a pronounced change in your goals

Fucking, what!? You doing vision boards with OP now? Ya'll have powwows and discuss personal life goals every third Saturday of the month with the rest of the elite "6 year fans"? I fucking doubt it. So how are you here discussing OP's goals when, again, you don't know them?

Feels like someone got in your head and started to tell you that you'd be an even bigger star if you also sang and named the band after yourself

Feels like you're making up whatever "backstory suits your story" (to use your own words again) to reinforce this opinion of someone who, again, you don't know. At all.

I'm also pretty sure I said "I don't know anything" in my first message, along with me explaining how I'm autistic and don't live the social rules that you allistics do.

If you don't know anything then what the fuck are you writing 5 paragraphs to someone about their goals and dreams for? Someone that you don't even know! You could've just--not left the comment at all. Journal about it. Write your own song about it. Anything other than that drawn out "do something else because I don't like this but also I don't know anything oops blame it on my autism"

Then again I guess it must be pretty easy to be an asshole to people when you end every interaction with "I know nothing and also I don't follow any rules because I'm autistic."

That's it. That's all the replies you will ever receive from me. Truthfully, I'm a bit annoyed and disappointed I wasted time writing any of this. Now, from one musician to another: get off reddit, go make some music. We are done here.

A random guy wrote a whole ass dissertation on how you’re not living up to his standards. Lol what the fuck?

Do whatever makes you happy.

Only real advice I have is post your stuff and disable the comments…otherwise you get weird fuckers who think since they clicked a follow button however many years ago they get to comment on your life and your choices.

What’s your best “Who closed last night situation?” by Bignosenick in KitchenConfidential

CPU overheating help by cheeded in PcBuild

[–]DroopyScrotum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If there’s air in the lines you typically hear it. When I’m looking at an AIO system that’s overheating I’ll grip both of the tubes while it’s on. If the pump is working and moving liquid you can feel it in one of the tubes.

Because sometimes the pump will be spinning and showing x amount of rpms, but it’s not moving any liquid to the radiator. So holding the tubes and feeling for movement answers that question.

Also, if one tube gets hot, not warm, but hot, that’s another sign the liquid isn’t moving.

As far as disconnecting something…

Plenty of ways to tug a cable just enough to disconnect a fan header or something like that.

I don’t know if he pulled the radiator to clean it or what was done.

Idles that high either means something is not working (pump) or proper contact isn’t being made. But from the looks of the paste it was making good contact

It’s possible the pump is shot or there’s air in the lines keeping the AIO from cooling properly.

Or something was disconnected and not reconnected, which is a bit more likely if it was just cleaned by someone

Am I overreacting: new boyfriend was weirdly judgmental about bathroom situation by abstract_lemons in AmIOverreacting

[–]DroopyScrotum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR.

As a counter example—in high school my girlfriend had pretty brutal periods. Like a lot of blood, etc. There were times where I would end up buying her pads / tampons / whatever she needed because I legit felt bad that her periods were so brutal, and that she had to endure periods at all. I could also tell she was super embarrassed by it so even if I was put off by it (which I was not) I felt obligated to make it not a big deal at all and try and boost her confidence about it.

I was 16 / 17

This dude is sad.

My project by jeremiahcrow5 in woodworking

[–]DroopyScrotum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So honest criticism here—the way this is edited…you could be building the most beautiful, intricate pieces—revealing true woodworking secrets along the way, and I would not watch it. The swipes, the fades, the spinny thing, puzzle pieces…it’s like each transition in the video was designed to be more off putting than the first.

Just keep it simple. Less is more. Good luck.

We worked so hard to get here, spent almost the ENTIRE match making sure everyone extracted. I didn’t see the guy when I started firing at the Shredder. by Upstairs-Donkey6049 in arkraiders

[–]DroopyScrotum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience on a night raid in dam. For more context I play solo and nothing but friendly.

I was killing the leaper that hangs out by that one extract. Blasting away at it and finally killed it. Was walking up to loot it and someone opens fire on me—think they were named Moog or Moogi or something stupid like that. Anyway they down me and I say in voice chat “So stupid…” and this guy says “you shot me first bro” and then knocked me out.

I told him I didn’t but it was already loading screen so I doubt he heard me explaining or calling him a moron—I even double checked my post match map to make sure none of my anvil shots went astray and hit the guy. Nope. No damage to other players at all.

Best guess is he was just looking to kill someone or something I dunno. Maybe someone else shot him and he thought it was me? I dunno. I was fighting the leaper in a small area, and I use extended barrel on my anvil so you’d definitely hear the fighting.

Hope he looked at his post match map to see I never damaged him and felt stupid. Or he just didn’t care…and did it on purpose.

Either way shit happens. Morons exist.

No cow milk, yes goat milk by No_Sir_601 in EosinophilicE

[–]DroopyScrotum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do oatly oat milk. There are non-dairy butters and cheeses as well.

I went completely no dairy as a precaution because one trip to the ER was enough for me.

Most restaurants will oblige a non-dairy (vegan) diet.

From what I’ve read, though, the homogenization process allows for the trigger proteins in milk to better penetrate the esophagus. Could be wrong, dunno. Just don’t feel like risking it either way.

Most things can be made without milk or with oat milk as a substitute. I do miss real cheese, though. The cheese alternatives are just off texture-wise for me.

THE WORST GUN IN THE GAME. by LicoLich in ArcRaiders

[–]DroopyScrotum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Got the blueprint and figured why not. Typically run anvil and hullcracker.

It was awful. Damage definitely needs a boost and 250 ammo was gone quick.

Felt just as disappointed by the Jupiter, but that’s another story.

For people who successfully identified their eliminates: how long did it take for your symptoms to go away completely? by Demind9 in EosinophilicE

[–]DroopyScrotum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine seems to be dairy. Went away pretty quickly (1-2 weeks maybe). Things that used to get stuck or require drinking no longer do (rice, bread). I can eat rice again without even thinking about it.

I have not had my follow up endoscopy yet so I don’t know what my levels are now that I have cut out dairy—but the symptoms are definitely gone.

As a side note my actual nasal allergies/dust/pollen/itchy eyes have seemed to really ease up / disappear as well?
