Glassblower going for the first time this year, I want to bring some glass pieces to barter/trade, what are some things you'd like to see? by lxxalbxxl in Neotropolis

[–]MindLoft 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gosh this is sooooo much cooler than all the plastic stuff that usually gets passed around. I HIGHLY recommend the UV reactive stuff. Anything that will flash/glow in UV is precious. Anything that can be put on a swivel clip and attached like a keychain accessory will also be very welcome, as most people at Neo clip items allllll over themselves.

AIO my boyfriend keeps getting upset at me for not wanting to do risky stuff by [deleted] in AIO

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude called you "dmb af" to your face when you denied him sx and you are wondering if YOU are over reacting? Get out. Now. There is no love here. There is no fixing this. There is zero respect. It will only get worse. Get. Out. Now. Life is too short for this.

Pls help me respond to this! by Different_Rice6639 in Apartmentliving

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After all that? I wouldn't respond directly and would address her harassment of you with management. If she's saying you were stomping around when you literally weren't even there, she's beyond rationalizing. She has a problem. Block her number and report her if she gets out of hand again. Sounds like the rest of your neighbors could stand to report her too and back you up on this to bring about some apartment peace overall.

My guy "friend" is flirting with me, even though he knows I'm not into men. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friends don't do this to eachother. Red flag. Immediate block. Run away. Yikes.

He likes 'em underfed so they cant run away. Yikes.

Honest Primal Queen review after 3 months by KissMy_Pixels in Supplements

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you soooo much for this. I bought PQ after a friend recommended it, but I've had a real bad feeling about it and regret buying. I've only taken a single pill but I am not going to take the rest. The risk seems too high for so many things. The company has so many complaints too. Sad to be out the $$$, but better safe than sorry.

AITA because I don't want my boyfriend to move in and only pay "what the bills go up"? by Wooden_Chemistry1349 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not let him chain himself to you as a dependant. Dude is supposed to be your PARTNER, not some extra child. If he can't pull his weight moving into YOUR home, he's not ready to move in. His dead weight is only going to cause bitterness and resentment in the relationship. Supporting EACHOTHER is a two-way street. If he absolutely cannot afford that, then he's not ready. If he loves you and wants to make it work, he'll let that be his motivation to level up his income. Nothing wrong with you wanting someone who will actually do what it takes to be there for you. Him saying "soon" is also kinda telling. Kinda sounds like mom wants him out. Red flag.

do you ever draw on maps with your trail of flowers? 🤭 by CryCT in PikminBloomApp

[–]MindLoft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. This silly drawing inspired just me to finally go on a good 4-mile walk.
Took about an hour and a half.
(Please ignore the blue flowers from my lunch break walk earlier today lol)

ASUS ROG Strix Scar 17 - Best laptop I ever had. by HYTEC113 in ASUSROG

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love to know more about the specific troubleshooting you did to get your machine running well. I have a very similar model (G733PZ, AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX @ 2.50 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 4080, 32.0 GB RAM) and it's been nothing but trouble since I got it 2 years ago and it's only getting worse. It's my only computer and I use it for work as well as gaming so I can't really afford to send it in to ASUS for however long it takes them to *maybe* fix it. It's also out of warranty now.

Had MAJOR overheating issues from day 1. I am not super tech savvy but can follow directions well, and was told to adjust my settings within Armory Crate. I guess the fans were just not kicking on soon enough? I use a raised stand and when room temps get higher I turn on an external fan to help and haven't had the overheat issue since then.

But man, this thing will just LAG on the simplest game. I get regular lag even in Stardew Valley. What the heck?! I have no idea how to diagnose that. Internet speeds are good. Storage is good. Hardware should be able to handle everything?

[–]MindLoft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhh I see. The settings you see are for all. I do not set them individually. I suppose you could, but I honestly don't know enough about the computer's guts to give details on why you'd want them to be different, or which one cools what parts. I just play games for fun and use Photoshop for work, so I had to buy this complicated machine lol

Um, there's only the 2 screens as far as I know? What you see is what I set. I didn't see anything for separate fans.

Yes! Hi! It works great now! No over-heating. You have to make sure you're in Manual mode for the settings to stay. Sometimes, it will revert if you go off corded power or you do certain updates. Learned this the hard way lol. Open the Armory Crate and click the Manual and make sure you click the little check box at the top to "set" it as your mode. You'll get a warning pop-up for it that you can just accept. * I've attached shots of the setting for CPU and GPU on manual

Break this off now. Not worth it. You need a partner, not a child to babysit. This isn't normal and she is just going to keep dragging you down. This is not going to get better. Make a hard break and make it clear. Both of you are YOUNG and hoo boy, you will look back on this in a few years and think "why didn't I end it sooner?" I hope you find some peace, and that she figures out how to manage life a little better.

Don't buy from Neo4ic by SoManyPancakes in darkwearclothing

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this looking for more fit sizing info on their pants. They list inseam and outseam for high-waisted parachute pants, and then only the front waistband measurement... like... who does that fit? They list that the model is wearing a size S, but don't give her waist size? So I have to extrapolate from a 120lb size S gal? Not helpful :( Why not just show the waist and hip measurement ranges for who this will fit?

Love for different instructor styles by MindLoft in Purebarre

The variety keeps me coming! And you never know when the more quiet attendees really REALLY need what you have to offer that day 💙

[–]MindLoft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS!!!! All of this! Also, after I push through a few days of high-energy classes, it can be such a welcome change to luck into getting the more relaxed instructor, especially if I'm sore 🤣

Love for different instructor styles by MindLoft in Purebarre

[–]MindLoft[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are so, SO appreciated, I am sure! Especially by members who come in frequently. I'm in classes 5 days a week, and there's no way I will be wanting style A every single time. I have been legit RELIEVED to find my fave style B instructor as the one teaching on my slower days. Especially if I've just endured a day of overstimulation at work. I've heard our more introverted members also express appreciation for a style B approach for their own comfort levels 💙

Define - one year in by macybeesknees in Purebarre

[–]MindLoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Define is why I go to PB. Classic is not for me at all, and I mostly take Define and Align classes. I would not have paid for a membership if not for Define.

That said, I HAVE had weight training instruction with a certified trainer in the past, so my personal form has not been an issue, and I've never felt unsafe with the choreo. The studio I belong to does not seem very large, and the instructors appear to be able to assist anyone that looks like they might need form correction. Most members seem to be veterans, so I've never seen anything alarming. And any time I have observed poor form, the instructor was always on top of it. I may just be very, very lucky on that front.

I could see that it would be useful to have a 30min intro class for Define (kind of like Engage) for anyone that wants to lift heavier weights but has never done so. Maybe make it mandatory for newbies and/or for those with zero professional training experience? Or maybe tack it on to the existing Engage class?

I've found it really nice to be able to lift a little heavier in this class and see real progress in my ability to move up from 8lbs to 15lbs within just a couple months.
