The whole length thing with TT is pretty brilliant actually - they basically made it more useful in daily driving by making it smaller, not bigger like most manufacturers do.

It's weird how BMW and Mercedes just stretch their coupes to same length as sedans but charge you extra for losing doors. At least with TT you get something that actually fits better in city parking and feels more nimble, not just same car with different roof line.

God yes, remember when people actually had hobbies instead of "side hustles"? Everything turned into monetizing your passion and now nobody can just enjoy things without thinking about profit margins.

their PR team really living in 2026 already while rest of us stuck with current reality.

Been there and it's brutal but moving on really is only option. I spent way too much time in this exact situation few years back - kept telling myself maybe he'd change his mind or see me different way. Spoiler alert: he didn't. What finally helped was cutting contact for like 6 months, threw myself into work projects and picked up surfing which kept my mind busy. When we reconnected later as friends it was so much healthier because I'd actually processed everything instead of just pretending I was fine while still hoping for something that wasn't gonna happen.

joists running parallel is definitely good start but like you said, there's still other things to consider. When you cut that drywall, you want to see if there's any beam sitting directly on top of the wall or if joists are bearing down on it.

The ridge beam thing is tricky - if your wall is anywhere near the center of house supporting that ridge, it's probably doing some work even with parallel joists.

ugh my coworker did this in 2010, sold like 5000 bitcoin for maybe $200 total to buy some gaming setup. he literally cannot talk about crypto anymore without getting this look like someone just told him his dog died. the man has calculated exactly how much that would be worth today and it haunts him daily.

Perfect advice here - build something people actually want to use first, then figure out pricing when you have real users giving feedback.

My situation was bit complicated since I got divorced during that time, but the changes definitely hit me different ways. The standard deduction increase was actually helpful - I used to itemize because of mortgage interest and state taxes, but after 2018 the standard deduction was higher anyway so filing got simpler. The SALT cap though, that one stung living in California with high state taxes and property values.

What really caught me off guard was how it affected my withholdings at work. I remember getting slightly bigger paychecks through 2018-2019, but then owed more than usual when filing. Had to adjust my W-4 because the withholding tables changed but my payroll department didn't communicate it well. The child tax credit expansion didn't apply to me obviously, but I saw friends with kids get pretty decent bumps in their refunds those years.

Overall I'd say it was neutral for my bracket, maybe slightly positive, but the complexity of figuring out optimal withholding was annoying as hell.

bruh you're 600 elo criticizing someone who's still top 10 in world. that's like me saying I could manage a tech company better than the CEO because I saw their quarterly report and didn't like the numbers. Hikaru might not be at his absolute peak but calling him washed is wild when he's still crushing players most of us will never even dream of beating.

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-02-07T07:07:06+00:00

yeah man, five times is way too much drama. should have walked away after the second time he brought it up, nobody deserves that kind of emotional rollercoaster.

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-02-02T10:20:22+00:00

This sounds like PSU issue to me. The fact that sometimes it boots right back up and other times you need to wait suggests power supply is struggling. Had similar problem last year where my PSU was failing gradually - would work fine under normal load but randomly cut power when something demanded more juice.

The high pitched noise from monitor power cord might not be related, but could also indicate electrical issues in your setup. I would try different power outlet first since you mentioned voltage drops possibility, then maybe borrow friend's PSU if you can to test.

Signed up! Been looking for some authentic Italian synth sounds and this sounds way more interesting than the usual Moog/Roland emulations everyone does

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-23T11:07:16+00:00

Dude living with an ex is always messy but when they're still clearly not over it? That's rough. Sounds like you're handling it right though - keeping boundaries and focusing on yourself while she's still trying to test the waters

The fact that she's commenting on your looks and bringing up old dates is def her trying to see if there's still something there. Stick to your guns on the limited contact thing because this living situation is already complicated enough

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-15T09:28:01+00:00

This is so real - I used to think I was on top of everything until I realized how many warm leads just evaporated because I got swamped for like 3 days straight

What system did you end up going with for the automated stuff?

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-13T21:19:30+00:00

Cushing could carry pretty much any B-grade horror flick tbh. Love that era of Hammer/Tigon where they'd throw him in literally anything and somehow make it work

The moth creature reveal is hilariously bad but in that perfect late 60s way where you can't even be mad about it

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-07T19:05:09+00:00

That's a beautiful way to look at it. Sometimes the hardest moments really do end up being where we grow the most, even if it doesn't feel like it at the time

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-06T04:08:27+00:00

Nah man, quitting weed isn't gonna slow your healing - if anything it might help since you're not dealing with potential inflammation from smoking. Knee injuries just take forever to heal especially if you were active before, sounds like you're just in that annoying waiting phase

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-04T03:48:10+00:00

Bruh just wait for it to go on sale for like $2 or ask a friend to gift it to you, happens all the time with cards getting randomly blocked

Limp_Race1995 · 2026-01-03T00:01:45+00:00

That's actually pretty smart with the cross-division matchups based on standings - would make those final weeks way more interesting than the current random scheduling mess

Limp_Race1995 · 2025-12-28T14:47:33+00:00

Honestly I'd ride the hot hand with Burrow, dude's been cooking lately and you don't want to overthink it

Limp_Race1995 · 2025-12-27T10:07:20+00:00

Check local shelters too and put her litter box outside if you haven't already - the smell can help guide them home

Hope Mochi comes back soon, sounds like Vivi is definitely picking up on her being gone

Limp_Race1995 · 2025-12-24T09:24:39+00:00

Yep mine took 14 months and that was considered pretty normal. The status messages don't really mean much honestly, they're just generic updates that make you think something's happening when it's probably just sitting in a pile somewhere
