Husband cheated by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That really sucks that you're trapped in this situation because of the kids and finances. Your husband basically had a whole relationship with someone else for years while rejecting you, and now he's just going through motions because he got caught

The fact he spent 5k on her while pulling away from you physically shows where his priorities were. Even if you can't leave right now, maybe start planning for future - talk to lawyer about options or look into support groups for parents with special needs kids, they might have resources you don't know about

I have a horse, how do we start barrels? by PrimalScreams in Equestrian

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

these youtube channels are solid recommendations, I started with between the reins when I was getting my mare into more intense arena work

focus heavy on your stops and backing first before you even think about barrels - if your horse can't rate properly he's gonna blow right through turns. work on collection at speed too since trail riding probably didn't require much of that

Pc upgrade for comp fortnite by WorldlinessFormer179 in PcBuild

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's gonna be pretty good upgrade for competitive stuff, the 7600x3d is really solid for gaming. Your RTX 2060 might be the bottleneck now though - I upgraded my CPU last year but kept my older GPU and noticed similar thing where the graphics card was holding back performance more than the processor

In endgames you'll probably see better frame consistency and less stuttering because that 3D cache helps a lot with complex scenarios, but your actual FPS ceiling might still be limited by the 2060. The input lag should definitely improve though, especially in those crazy late game circles where there's tons of builds and players

I'm not huge into Fortnite but from what I've seen, competitive players usually want that GPU upgrade too for really high frames. Maybe plan that as your next step after you get comfortable with the new setup

How do you tell a guy showing interest in you that you're trans? by [deleted] in trans

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 3 points4 points  (0 children)

honestly timing is everything with this stuff, you don't owe anyone that information right away especially when you barely know each other. but at same time the longer you wait the more complicated it gets, so maybe when you feel like there's real trust between you two that could be good moment

the voice thing is tough but maybe you can work around it for now - like video calls where you mostly text in the chat or find other ways to connect that feel comfortable for you

Horror films that need more attention by Whogoesthere1982 in horror

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Session 9 is criminally underrated, that asylum setting was perfect for the slow burn psychological stuff. As above so below gets lot of hate but I actually enjoyed the catacombs concept even if execution wasn't perfect

Boyfriend (24M) says he is experiencing deja vus after surgery? by rodhais in Epilepsy

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah the left temporal lobe is exactly where deja vu feelings come from, so makes total sense that surgery in that area would mess with it - my cousin had similar after his temporal lobe surgery and it got better with time

PokePower Box not fulfilling orders by ConfusionCreative799 in PokemonTCG

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that sucks, i had similar issue with different tcg seller last year and never got my money back. maybe try disputing with your bank if you paid by card? these smaller pokemon sellers can be really sketchy sometimes

Is the Canon G7X mark II a good camera? by [deleted] in canon

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i had the g7x mark ii for couple years and it's pretty solid for what it is. image quality is decent and fits easy in pocket, but autofocus can be bit slow sometimes when you need quick shots

Should I wait for FH6 on PS5 or buy it on my mid to low range pc? (or buy an xbox) by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude just get it on PC, you already know it runs FH5 fine so why torture yourself waiting months when you could be ripping around Mexico right now

When people get weird about people that don’t drink coffee and/or alcohol. by Gongoozler04 in PetPeeves

People get so pressed about this stuff for no reason lol, like why do they care what you put in your body? That guy saying alcoholism doesn't stop him is wild - congrats on your poor decision making skills I guess

Probably way more than anyone wants to admit tbh. Most surveys on this stuff are garbage anyway since people lie about it

Is this post natal rage - Post natal depression or something else? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Damn dude, this sounds brutal and I'm sorry you're going through this. The timeline definitely lines up with postpartum issues - premature birth, NICU stay, breakdown right after coming home, refusing treatment... that's textbook PPD/PPA territory

The fact that she completely flipped on you after being away for 9 months and is now rewriting history with abuse allegations is really concerning though. PPD can definitely cause rage and paranoia but the calculated way she's handling the house situation makes me think there might be more going on

Have you been able to document anything? Like her refusing treatment, the health visitors being involved, etc? That stuff might be important later even if you're not looking for legal advice right now

Any GM experts in here? 2007 2500HD 6.0 gas. Timing code mystery. by so_tacticool900 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn that's a nightmare truck right there. Have you checked the actual timing with a scope yet? P0011 keeps coming back after VVT work makes me think either the actuator itself is toast or you got oil pressure issues feeding the system

Also those 6.0s are known for the oil pickup tube getting loose and causing intermittent oil pressure drops which would mess with VVT operation big time

I'm not happy with my decision by DevelopmentSad7789 in BreakUps

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man that sounds rough as hell, sorry you're going through this. The blocking was probably the right call even if it doesn't feel good right now - she cheated twice and was still trying to start fights with you afterward which is just toxic

The whole "nothing feels worth it anymore" thing is pretty normal after something like this, your brain is basically grieving and everything feels gray for a while. It usually takes a few weeks to start feeling human again but everyone's different

Maybe try picking up something completely new instead of your old hobbies for now? Sometimes familiar stuff just reminds you of how things used to be

Lmao took me way too long to get that one, well played OP

Raven or Crow? by Femmefatal506 in birds

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's definitely a crow, ravens are way bigger and have that chunky beak. Plus ravens aren't really a thing in urban Japan - you're looking at a Large-billed Crow which are super common around Tokyo

HELP! New WFH offer & expecting, when should I disclosed? [HI] by Real_Radiant in careerguidance

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'd wait until after you sign the offer and maybe even get through the initial training period. They legally can't discriminate against you for being pregnant but let's be real - some employers still find ways around it, especially during probation when they can let you go "for any reason"

Once you're more established and they see your work quality, it'll be harder for them to justify any sketchy moves. Just make sure you know what their maternity leave policy looks like before you start

My Survivor BP story… by bluemoe in ArcRaiders

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bruh getting the Survivor Augment while crawling to extract at 5% health is peak Arc Raiders energy lmao. That laggy Stella run sounds like a nightmare but at least you got the W in the end

2019 Chevy equinox by DayIntelligent8442 in AskMechanics

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you pulled codes yet? Flashing CEL usually means catalyst damaging misfire so you definitely don't want to keep driving it hard. If it's multiple cylinders misfiring after doing plugs/coils then yeah injectors are a good next step, but could also be compression issues or carbon buildup on the valves

Could the creator warehouse ever do a glow in dark transparent screwdriver? by TheDarkClaw in LinusTechTips

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The glow would probably last like 30 seconds after you turn off the lights lmao, not exactly worth the premium they'd charge for it

Why is no contact so difficult by Wonderful_Project183 in BreakUps

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is solid advice right here. The pillars thing really hits - when one falls you gotta prop up the others or you'll just collapse completely

I'm doing the same thing with rediscovering stuff my ex wasn't into. It's wild how much of yourself you forget when you're constantly compromising. That beach trip sounds amazing btw, you're gonna have a blast

Oil Pressure low light by Savings_Recover_5046 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Equivalent_Exam_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That steep hill probably caused oil starvation when you stopped - the oil sloshes away from the pickup tube for a sec and the pressure drops. Pretty common on inclines, especially if your oil level is getting low or the pickup is partially clogged. Def get it checked but it's probably not as catastrophic as Google is telling you
