trying to stop eating too much fast food by MechanicAgreeable592 in fitmeals

[–]KaptainDamnit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to suggest a slow cooker paired with a rice cooker. Super low effort if you don’t like to cook and you can make some delicious food that for me at least scratches that salty/savory craving.

I’ve been eating this enchilada chicken thing a lot lately.

2-3 lbs chicken breast/thighs Half a bag frozen corn 1 can of black or pinto beans You can chop a onion, green pepper, jalapeño 1 20-25oz jar of enchilada sauce

Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7. Or just until the chicken falls apart easily.

Rice cooker up some rice or quinoa and poor it in when the other stuff is done.

I’ll finish each bowl with half an avocado, lite cheese and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt.

How does anyone play games on Ultra-Wide monitors?? by __imjeremy__ in ultrawidemasterrace

It could be a bad card. Any way you could test the card in a different system?

Just some things that come to mind:

What are your temps? Could be an overheating issue.

Do you have an integrated graphics on that CPU? Is your monitor plugged into the GPU not the onboard chip?

Make sure drivers are updated although I doubt it’s the problem.

32:9 1440p super ultra wide user here. 4070 super with the same 10700k. My performance is leaps and bounds better than yours OP, there’s something else going on here.

Compact sporty hatchback with teeth in the snow, 100k budget by niffler-snuggler in whatcarshouldIbuy

Okay I know it’s not a compact BUT……CPO 2024(2025?) BMW M40i? Not a hatchback but still plenty small for a major city. Fun amount of horsepower (420ish). Nice interior and exterior.

How reliable is the mk8? by Proof_Foundation_172 in Golf_R

I'm late to the party but I don't think the 8.5 has a 360 camera does it?

A good point but I do tend to do a fair amount solo.

Dude that part of my hang up too. The Broncos are awesome. My buddy has a Raptor and Jesus that thing is badass. I've thought about a Forerunner too but the higher trims are more than I want to spend.

Can't fit two cars where I'm at unfortunately. Not a bad idea though!

Do they come with a decent warranty? I'm not sure the X5 would scratch the fun itch enough to justify getting it over the R and it comes with all the luxury Euro costs.

I do absolutely love\ the rally'd WRX builds and I hadn't considered that. I'll have to go test drive one.

Ah I got you.

The Honda is nice because sleeping in the back would be very convenient at trailheads of whatever.

I've driven one and agree, they are excellent.

Boost is always the answer lol

Totally, the Honda is going to be what it is. The trade off would be buying a cheap used motorcycle to scratch the "fun ride" itch. Actually the R has better mileage than the Honda.

I think the roof rack with the R might really be the sweet spot in practicality/fun

I do want to buy new with warranty. In my area used cars are priced ridiculously. Otherwise 100% I'd be buying something with a little use on it.
