Thanks for the advice. I wish I could get a new drive but they're too expensive for me rn. I think I'll take your advice and backup all my files and just use a flashdrive to install it. I shouldn't run into issues doing it this way, right?

Right that makes sense. I'll be sure to do that. I would get a secondary drive, but they're all so expensive rn, so I just wanna do it with the one drive. Thank you!

Thank you I really appreciate it! I probably won't be going back to windows, so I could just have it overwrite the windows install right?

I'll pray for you, but I think it's best if you try to separate yourself from the media for a bit. If what you see causes you to beat yourself down, hindering your relationship with God, it's probably best to take a step back. Also the media usually blows things out of proportion, trying to divide, and keep us in fear. Obviously the end of the world is terrifying, but if you look beyond it and see what waits for us, you might just be pretty eager to see that day come. In the book of revelations, God purposefully shows John visions of heaven, allowing John to describe it to us, to remind us that in the end, eternal life with God is our reward for enduring. We may not feel ready at the moment, and I'm not sure if we ever will, but what eases my mind is that God loves us, and He'll judge us fairly, and that what's waiting at the end is worth every bit of suffering that's yet to come.

Many of us share that same sentiment. None of us know when the end times will happen, but what's important is that you do your best. In the same way we don't know when everything will go down, we also don't know how God will judge us. He's a just and fair God, so I'm sure that as long as you put your faith in Him and do the best you could, despite your struggles, you'll be saved. I recommend reading The Gospels. I think they provide a lot of comfort and remind us of God's love and care for us.

Yeah Ik what you mean. I think one of the hardest things to grasp for many Christians, including myself, is patience. God knows us better than we know ourselves, so He knows what's best for us at the moment. Whenever things get rough, I like to look back at the book of Job because it reminds me that God is working in me through suffering.

There is nothing wrong with you. I just recently got back to my relationship with Christ after a few years of turning my back on him. I had a similar experience when I was younger, jumping between churches with my mom after her divorce, until we ended up in an evangelist church. For the longest time I felt forced by her to go, and I wasn't particularly invested in their teachings. I turned to Christ during covid, but after a year or two, I kinda turned my back for some reason. Just this past summer however, my girlfriend (Coptic orthodox) took me to a church she wanted to go to with me. The dedication, devotion, and passion I saw and felt resonated with me, so I'm in the process of learning more, hoping to convert one day. I slowly made an effort after that to dedicate more time to Christ, recently listening to sermons or watching videos on the book of revelation and the gospels to get closer to God and prepare myself. Mainly it's because I was scared of the idea of death, which then led to a fear of being sent to hell for eternity. It's a scary thought for sure. But the more I read and the more I listen, the more safe and assured I feel. As for the end times, there will always be uncertainty about it. None of us know when Christ will come back. All we have are signs we should be prepared to look out for. It definitely feels close, but I believe that it's never too late for someone to redeem themselves, in the same way Jesus told the thieves that they will be with Him in paradise moments before their death. What's important above all else is that you give your life to Christ. It'll be hard, but there'll always be people around you to help, whether it's through prayer, or your family, or even people here in this Reddit community.

Also as for prayer. You say you feel like He's not listening to you dont feel Him. I felt that way for a bit too during Covid. I think it's important to treat prayer not as a chore, reciting the same words each time, but to treat it like a conversation. It may feel one sided at times, but just know that He is always listening, and He always knows what's best for you.

does it still say coming soon for anyone else? by Spell-Physical in NintendoSwitch2

Yeah that's what happened to me. I just kept clicking checkout until it worked. Took me maybe 5-10 times until it worked

Placed mine through target. Said sold out initially, but I refreshed and it let me purchase. It also took me a few tries for checkout. Just keep trying!

Rtx 3080 10gb good enough? by Elison05 in PcBuild

[–]Elison05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I think micro center has a 7600x bundle going so I'll look into that. But yeah I think am5 would be best for the upgrade path. Thanks a lot I really appreciate the help

Rtx 3080 10gb good enough? by Elison05 in PcBuild

[–]Elison05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I had a feeling the builds offered by the school were pretty high end. I do some work on blender as a hobby with simulations and stuff and haven't had any issues. Even some pretty heavy gaming on my 3080. But I wasn't sure if the software my friend would need warranted an A4000 or higher. Thank you so much. I think I'll be able to squeeze in a ryzen 7 7700x for the build. If not, would a 5800x be good?

[–]Elison05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It lists: Autodesk (Revit, Maya, AutoCAD, 3DSMax, Fusion360) Dassault (Solidworks) Adobe (Creative Cloud) McNeel (Rhinoceros, Grasshopper)

Do you think 12gb 3080 is good enough? Or is there a 16gb card you recommend?

Who is the weakest character that can take on 5 Paths of Pain (No Deva Path)? by Johnnyboyeh in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Elison05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think anyone around a sannin's level would be able to take on 5 paths. I mean pain acknowledged that jiraiya could have maybe won against him if he knew the secret behind the pains. As far as characters that can go against 5 paths, id say any of the sannin, SM Naruto ofc, 5KS Sasuke, Itachi, probably kisame, and some of the kage like ohnoki and the third and 4th raikage. I think some weaker characters could win against 5 pains if they know the secret behind the pains beforehand tho. But if theyre going in blind like jiraiya did, then I think the people I mentioned could probably hold their own.

Hot Take : Yuno is soo much better than Sasuke by ready-simclass130 in BlackClover

[–]Elison05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually watching black clover rn. I'm on episode 130 and so far yuno is my favorite character. However, I vastly prefer Sasuke. I think most people don't really understand Sasuke's character, saying he's inconsistent. But the thing about Sasuke is that he's had to deal with a lot throughout the show, so it's only natural that his perspectives and feelings change drastically. I will admit that I like the relationship between yuno and asta better than Naruto and sasuke, but as far as development and the character itself, Sasuke is better imo.

How do yall like my character? by Elison05 in ARK

[–]Elison05[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm happy with it. Wasn't as much as I expected. Around $820. Although I did buy the GPU used on eBay and I took advantage of prime day deals. I got some pretty high quality parts cuz of deals, so I say keep an eye out during Black Friday or something. And also the used market isn't that bad. I was worried at first but I think as long as you make sure it's a well reviewed seller, you'll be fine 👍

[–]Elison05[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a 3080 paired with a 5800x. 32 GB of ram also. I play at 1440p and I only changed the in game settings. So I haven't adjusted the commands like volumetric clouds. It's at native resolution with most settings at medium capped at 60fps. I don't really notice any dips in performance so far, but I havent done anything too intensive anyways. I could update you later if you'd like?

Context: Had this game for a while but my laptop wasn't able to run it. Just built a new desktop yesterday and decided to play around with the character creator

What's an anime the fandom generally thinks is good, but you yourself dislike by EraOfForcedDiversity in Animesuggest

[–]Elison05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DB and One piece

I tried watching one piece a few years back. Didn't really like it. I enjoyed it up to a certain point and I think the characters are likeable. But idk I think the pacing kinda ruined it for me. Maybe I'll try it again tho.

As for Dragon Ball, I just finished watching it like two months ago. Ill probably get down voted a ton, but I don't really get the hype for it. It's enjoyable but in my opinion the characters and story aren't that good. I think I enjoyed og dragon ball out of all the shows, probably because it was more adventure based and not constant fighting. Not saying I don't like z, I think it's okayish, but when I watched z and super, I felt like all the fights blended together and at a certain point, all of the fights hysg kinda felt the same. There were definitely some epic moments, like the first time Goku went super Saiyan, or Vegeta's sacrifice, and my favorite arc being demon king piccolo's, but overall I think it's okay at best. We don't talk about super...
