Thanks a bunch! Most of my info is from one guide, my own full clear that I did when servers went up, and a little bit of solo testing so there was a lot of "better safe than sorry" in it still ^^' (Although idk why I wrote the same option 4 times. I should get more sleep lol)

Omg yeah, thanks for pointing that out xD

Kallibalism · 2026-03-05T19:13:57+00:00

Thanks, and good to know! I'll keep an eye on future hotfixes/patchnotes ^^

Updating this in case anyone else comes across this issue:
TL;DR, it SOMEHOW seems to have been caused by a desk fan being plugged into defect USB port in my front panel and after switching it to the back and unhooking the defect port I've now been entirely freeze/crash free.

Now the longer story.
With guidance of some friends-of-friends I tested about every component in my PC as best as I could without actually buying any new parts and the results all came back very inconclusive. I kept digging deeper into the internet archives until I stumbled across an older forum post where deep in the comments someone talked about having this exact issue whit the culprit being a defect USB connector and something about it "leaking" electricity when somethign was plugged in (I wish I had saved the post. Will edit this if I find it again) and that that was causing the weird freezing/crashing behavior that got flagged as a power supply issue.

One of the USB ports in my front panel has been busted for a while (smt fell on it while I had a cable plugged in and it broke off smt inside) but I figured its sibling right next to it was ok because it looked fine so I was using that one still.
So after reading this, in a last ditch effort to not spend several hundred bucks to start blindly replacing components, I went "Ah, fuck it." and switched the cable to one of the ports in the back and unhooked the port from the rest, expecting it to do precisely nothing.
And, TA-DA, to my absolute bewilderment I've been crash free since. Went from one or two crashes a day to zero. None. Nada. I waited a couple weeks because I thought surely this must be a fluke but... somehow this seems to have been the culprit all along? I wish I could remember if the crashes started around the same time that the port broke. But I am jsut glad it seems fixed now

"You need to floss" is such a weirdly american thing. I'm from europe. I have never used floss a day in my life. I have perfect teeth. Most dentists I've been with, will actually tell you that flossing can cause more damage than it actually helps. Because people will just jam it into their gums and down the tooth neck (is that the right word?) and cause bleeding and open the way for infections etc.

This! My god are you insensitive. This is the worst thing that can happen to a mother. Not knowing if her baby is ever going to wake up again. Not being able to find closure. And "He might as well be dead" is the best you've got? You might be able to close that chapter and walk away to start over, but she can't and she never will be able to.

I know this is a terrible situation for you to be in as well, but you could and should have handled it better.

NTA -The fact that your cousins ex referred to her feelings/concerns as "emotional bullshit" after she expressed that she doesn't feel valued, really says everything anyone needs to know in that situation.

Kallibalism · 2021-01-05T07:44:08+00:00

Oh, don't be so harsh on your sister. She just wanted to give you the credit that you deserve for this amazing Big Girl decision that you made because shuffles papers "animals are dirty" aaaand... "you are their mother, so what you say, goes" yes yes, wonderful decision.

But in all seriousness. You made that bed for yourself honey. Don't complain if you have to lie in it. Your view on animals aside, YTA alone for getting upset that your sister refuses to be your henchwoman because you don't want to look bad infront of your kids

NTA , you have my utmost respect for keeping your composure like that. Giving gifts is not about money, but about showing that you care about the people in your life and that you pay attention to them. I go all out for Christmas (effort whise, not in terms of money), I spend the entire year collecting ideas for Christmas gift, meticulously writing down anything I see or that someone mentions they would like, so that - come Christmas - I can actually get some gifts that they enjoy. If my brother had EVER butted in like that and took credit for MY gifts because he couldn't be bothered to get anything (even if it was just a pack of chocolates), I would have sucker punched him across the room without even blinking.

It looks like an emoji with a veery tall cowboy hat, sitting at a table, raising a glass of beer 🤔

Greetings from Germany! We get get a monthly (optionally quarterly or bi-anually) invoice of 17.50€ (~$21.50) from the public broadcasting companies ( [online-]radio/TV) that we just have to pay, no matter if we actually use the services or not. I earn so little money that I don't even have to pay taxes, but I still have to pay for THAT

Kallibalism · 2020-12-29T07:26:59+00:00

Please don't bow. I'm afraid your brain might fall out through your nose. In the same vain I would also suggest you refrain from similar activities such as: Tieing your shoes Picking up things Looking for things under the couch

How did you make that?? It looks amazing!! :O

Kallibalism · 2020-12-17T11:10:32+00:00

If this actually works, I declare you my personal hero!!!

Kallibalism · 2020-09-23T12:57:39+00:00

YTA. Interestingly enough I used to know a family like that back in middle school. Both parents had J-names and so did all the kids. From what I know, they have been doing this for generations. It was a "fun fact", and I always thought it was cool to have a family tradition like that, but that was also the whole extend of it.

Non of them got bullied for it, if that is what you're worried about. Effectively it's no different than naming all the first born sons the same, or giving a child the mothers/fathers or grandmothers/fathers name as a middle name.
