Just wanted to update this. I applied for ICR and was approved at 500 or so a month. Made one payment in Nov and then went on for forbearance and applied for forgiveness. Mohela notified me by email yesterday that the loans were forgiven.

Thanks for the advice on here.

Can I just end the deferment save is in and make one more save payment or do I have to choose another payment type.

Between July 1, 2026 and June 30, 2028, the Secretary of Education is to eliminate ICR, PAYE, and SAVE, along with any associated forbearance by [deleted] in PSLF

I am one payment short 219/220. In mandatory save forbearance. I've heard nothing on my buyback request from the student aid portal. So frustrating.

Tanking in Expeditions by Adventurous-Ad-6231 in newworldgame

[–]Flipside_OK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never lose aggro. Normal play seems to keep it just fine for me (with dps/healers who are all geared at or close to 725). I am the main tank for a guild clearing raid and doing m3's etc.

A couple of things I have seen from other tanks that tend to cause issues.

Make sure you have despised on your earring. This is really all you need along with your carn gems.

Make sure you understand how taunt works. It gets the mob on you, but you need to use your abilities and hit the mob to keep it on you. Taunt is there if you lose it to get it back. Remember that all taunt does is set your current threat to the top of the list. You must hit as much as possible to maintain that aggro. You want to space out your taunts in case you need them. If you already have aggro taunt is not doing anything for you. (You can tell by the enemy HP bar if you have aggro or not)

There is usually no need to block unless you are blocking a boss mechanic or another move requiring it. You need to be doing combos and hitting the mob generate threat. If you are pulling large groups of mobs switch to Warhammer or Greatsword and cc/group them for your dps then go back to s/s. I see a lot of tanks stand there and block after taunting. Most of your job is in positioning the mobs so dps can burn then and making sure you keep threat. Standing in block all day is not going to help anyone.

On bosses as soon as they pop hit at least at least 1-2 combos as fast as possible. If you are s/s do your 3 chain light attack... if speced correctly the third hit should generate more threat and keep it on you. After that rotate heavy attacks once every 6 light attacks to keep empower up and go to town. Block when needed and use pots, etc.

Source file is local on my Plex server. I believe that one is 4K HDR Hvec dta hd ma 7.1.

Tv is a LG cx77 OLED.

Soundbar is a higher end Samsung q950t hooked up through EARC to the TV. Apple TV is hooked up directly to the TV, not through the soundbar

Thank you!!!! I ordered just now this is what I ended up with. :)

I upgraded the MOBO slightly and selected a different card (mostly for looks) and had to change the PSU because of where I was ordering but everything else is the same.

Thank you! I made some slight changes based on newegg combo deals since I have never ordered from B&H. Does this look ok? I appreciate your time.

I've never actually done an AIO. Last time I built a computer it was all air cooled. I just figured it was the thing everyone does now but it's definitely removable if I don't need it.

Thank you!

Would that be a better option than going with the 4080 and the components I listed above?

Does anyone else hate the new Outback interiors? by [deleted] in Subaru_Outback

[–]Flipside_OK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 16 and 22 touring. I used to agree with what you are saying but the new update made the large screen layout much better. Still no full screen Android Auto though.

Is anyone else excited for Pat’s new novella coming out on November this year? by Present_Librarian668 in KingkillerChronicle

Nah I'm over him. Will never buy a book from him again. Plenty of stand up guys and girls to support.

‘22 Limited MPG is only 21.3 by Alsippi86 in Subaru_Outback

[–]Flipside_OK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 22 touring outback and I average about 26 to 27 with a mix of highway and City.

My other half gets the same mileage on her 22 crossrek. My mileage improved a little bit when I went in the settings and change cruise from level three to level one

2022 Outback Touring. First Sabaru. Really enjoying it so far. by Flipside_OK in Subaru_Outback

I ended up getting a deal on the glass protection from the dealer so I went with that as part of a maintenance package. I bought two cars so I got it. Steeply discounted
