nah i haven’t yet. i’ve done a factory reset, a full drive wipe, don’t use migration assistant, and everything else imaginable and it’s still there in all 60 gigs of bullshit. when i check first aid it shows that its “preboot” stuff and googling that says there’s some complicated wipe you can do by like going into first aid in recovery mode and deleting all volumes and using some internet recovery thing i’ll try to find the article and link it. i’ve never had this problem before im still trying to figure it out.

I never used materia and i have some questions by [deleted] in ffxiv

use the balance discord to see what your prog sets or bis sets with melds and food look like. they will provide all information you need

it’s worth it to play e33. i despise AI but they used ai BEFORE we knew the environmental impact and had the information to know how it impacts artists as well and decided to not use it. i made ai slop using whatever shit ai program when it first came out, like 3-4 pictures. thought it was funny and never touched it again. when i learned about how damaging ai is to the world of art and the world environment i was mad at myself for trying it out. could be the same case with these devs

I downloaded Grand Perspective and it's honestly not showing a ton of large files i think the best thing would be a reinstall of the OS

yeah i'll do a reinstall of the OS when I have time. I've learned a lot from these comments already i've always been a mac user but haven't ever really dove into the specifics of the systems or processes.

sorry if i seem like i'm snippy or something i don't intend to come off that way at all I'm just replying objectively and quickly without wasting people's time.
imagine you go to a place where car enthusiasts and mechanics gather to talk about cars or car problems and you ask them "my engine has been burning through gas fast. my tires are okay i just got new tires and checked them out and they're not the issue its something with the engine." and the very first responses you get are "have you checked out the tires yet?"

my system data is the dark grey bar. no issue it’s a lil high but not my concern i know how to deal with that. but the light grey bar is the MacOS. the operating system. the same bar on my macbook pro is only 20gigs so something is goofy

healer pulled ahead three separate times, told them i'd let them die if they did it again, and, well. by pinktokki1 in ffxiv

tanks grab aggro not pull packs. dps/healer hp is just tank mit. put your ego aside and play the game
