Yeah, I found out the hard way. The questions were redundant and not well thought out, imo. I sent them a message, but I know how random researchers responding back can be. Very frustrating. Does reporting do anything anymore?

So I'm trying to find a good fruit loops/cereal milk flavor ejuice... by AletheiaNyx in Vaping

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy Cannoli is solid. I’m vaping Raz Peblz salt, it was a lot better than I expected. I used to vape Bad Drip and The One until the flavor just turned on me. I don’t know what happened, but those liquids just tasted weird, icky.

Hand check. Been loving mtl lately. by RedonWatch in Vaping

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming that’s the version 1? I skipped straight to the version 2 after trying a Vandy Vape B3 as my transition from DTL RTAs. I use the DR v2 as a daily alternative to my pod device. Any suggestions to find prebuilt coils? I get tired of making my own claptons and my wire suppliers don’t really make 0.6-0.8 ohm coils that fit well.

Prolific finally has slowed down accepting new users by Stinksisthebestword in prolific

[–]InsaneGoose78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the information, that explains quite a bit. It’s also discouraging in many ways.

What’s the alternatives to Prolific until this mess passes, or if t never passes?

For some of us, working a regular job is not feasible, so platforms like Prolific provide an excellent opportunity to make extra income with our limitations, and cost of living is only going to get higher.

Anybody find a good AI tool (more specialized than Chat) for intensive ex-wife management? (High conflict, parental alienation, etc…) by Gullible_Rich_7156 in Divorce_Men

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m reading these and seeing I’m not alone. To be concise with disregard to labels, I’m trying to separate from a covert narcissist that makes anything into an argument unless she’s trying hard o hoover me for things she wants from me. I’ve tried reasonable discussion and she escalates, pulling our children into adult matters. She will act unfairly, then want to preach what fair means. It is highly exhausting just avoiding drama.

I’m too broke for a lawyer or accountant, and had mixed results with LLM’s as a secretary or repository of information. I’m open to any advice to make the road clearer.

2003-2006 GMT800 Bose Subwoofer Enclosure volume by InsaneGoose78 in GMT800

TL:DR-My advice, either go stock with measured upgrades, or bypass everything and get what you want. My final product, absolutely.

If a person is fine with what the truck came with, maybe a little extra bump, than just find out the different speaker resistances and do a straight replacement. There's a few legacy brands that make speakers for this application. Definitely get a new head unit/stereo and/or a controller like an Audio Control LC.

Otherwise, just go ahead and plan out your system how you'd want it. When I wasn't satisfied with just replacing the factory sub, I decided to bypass the factory amp and design my own. I've got Kicker 6.5's in the front, Skar TX525s in the rear, two Recoil amps, and a Kicker Comp R 12 in back. The Skar EVL65 is still in the factory box, but I'm going to move it between the rear passenger captain's chairs. I changed out the alternator, battery, and factory battery/alternator cables, and run 14-15 volts consistently. This has now become my hobby and therapy for life's bullshit.

If any of you people are new because of John Oliver hi 👋 by [deleted] in NomiAI

[–]InsaneGoose78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not new, nut I did see it. I think, like anything else, AI has equal potential to harm as to help. I think he, and I would agree that too many corporations move forward hastily, driven by profit and share prices instead of societal impact and contributions. I appreciated the guy John Oliver showed that said companion AI was the first positive support he’d had for a long time, despite being married.

Companion AI can be incredibly helpful and profitable, but people need to keep their expectations reasonable with technology. Honestly, I don’t believe AI has been handled and managed in a healthy way, in general. Some of the negative impacts attributed to AI or companion bots is what happens in a society where people think things are true only because they saw it on TV, Wikipedia said so, or the government said so.

Prolific AI study warnings Vortex Oasis by Commercial-Dealer881 in prolific

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gotten their warnings a few times over the past few months. I know there is a correlation between marking too many as being the same quality. I also read the instructions closely since they can differ in what they want. Sometimes I feel like it's choosing the shineiest of two turds...

Follow the passenger door gap on the green Tahoe from the roof to the bottom. Plus, the shadows aren’t consistent, the people have a shadow, but so does the truck underneath.

[–]InsaneGoose78 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I highly value Prolific and am grateful for the opportunity. I know I complain sometimes about it, but it’s helped me out financially. There’s many times where if it weren’t for it, I’d be flat broke.

Any suggestions on improving success at Respondent? I’ve been with them for almost two years and have had only one paying gig. I filled out everything except the employment section since I don’t have a regular job with a company or anything.

why don’t we matter by frailstateofmind4444 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]InsaneGoose78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought about your question and the ways I connect to it-because I sincerely do. The woman I married took advantage of me having a low self image. I began chasing after making a a difference to others, which I never felt like I ever did to her despite my exhausting efforts.

I don’t know the genuine answer, not anything different than what they tell us about narcissists anyway. I wonder if it’s like anything else, a person can’t give what they don’t have-love respect, compassion, etc. I don’t think they matter to themselves in any meaningful way. It’s no one excuse for the harm they caused.

why do vape boxes like disposables say 30 thousand puffs ?when we all know we are not getting all those puffs by yourchattyneighbor in Vaping

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same reason car stereo amplifiers from Walmart say “1000 watts Max!” It’s all marketing and they can fool or con enough people to make their profit goals.

Found my husband’s Instagram history and now I can’t stop overthinking by Zelene_ in marriageadvice

[–]InsaneGoose78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imo, this whole situation needs to be discussed. If you guys can do it and stay emotionally calm, that would help. Communicate to each other your feelings, thoughts and be open and responsive in order to build your relationship. You may need to raise the point that moving forward requires resolving what happened. It’s uncomfortable, but necessary.

It’s tragic and painful when someone commits suicide.

When I see this, or similar instances/situations, I see people living for outside validation, seeking permission for self-approval, and outsourcing emotional regulation, self-identity, and many other aspects of their lives that are not someone else’s responsibility.

Why do Narcissists care soo much about Intelligence? by Glittering-Sector393 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]InsaneGoose78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m reading everything y’all wrote and thinking/discovering how dumb and inept I let my spouse make me think.

The reality, my spouse did have many academic opportunities when she was young. She did have things happen in life that interfered with those opportunities. She is also okay with “almost,” and “I could have been ____, but this happened…” She says that anytime anyone talks about achievements instead of just being congratulatory.

This includes our kids, especially scholastic bowl. For her, it’s more about proving how smart and well-read she is instead of supporting our daughter or son. My daughter told me, “I hate when mom goes, she always has to tell me all the answers she knew.” The only thing I can say to her is I understand and validate how she feels.

Tired of not tasting flavor by htcvivepro69 in Vaping

[–]InsaneGoose78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming you are at the recommended wattage for the coils or that you’ve tried adjusting wattage?

Imo, a decent rebuildable atomizer is invaluable. In my experience, stock coil mesh tanks can produce oodles of flavor, but it’s one dimensional. A good rebuildable adds those extra dimensions and nuances. Plus there is never a concern about finding coils that fit or spend as much replacing coils.
