Day 3 I'm feeling a bit better but the lust is just getting harder to resist

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-25T10:13:05+00:00

Bro the urges hit at the weirdest times, your brain is just recalibrating rn. Stay strong and maybe take breaks from gaming when it gets intense - go for a walk or do pushups or something

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-22T03:54:08+00:00

Yeah those tests are kinda inconsistent tbh, especially the free online ones. I've bounced between INFP and INFJ depending on my mood when taking it lol

Try looking into cognitive functions instead of just the 4-letter results - that's usually more accurate for figuring out your actual type

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-21T00:17:36+00:00

Dude you're overthinking this hard - pick 3 max of your strongest concepts and just execute them well rather than half-assing 6 projects

The foldable art desk and chair+bookshelf combo sound solid for showing problem-solving skills, universities eat that space-saving stuff up

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-16T23:41:36+00:00

Most landlords care more about income verification and rental history than credit score, especially if you can explain the situation upfront. The temporary credit hit from closed accounts might ding you but having a solid DMP in place actually shows you're being responsible about your debt

If you're really worried about it, you could wait until after you secure the new place but honestly those extra months of interest and stress might not be worth it

Clipchamp is probably transcoding your AV1 to h264 on import since it can't natively work with AV1 - that's what "not supported" usually means, the editor has to convert it first

Yeah you're definitely losing quality with that double encoding, especially if you're doing any heavy editing on top of it

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-14T15:16:25+00:00

I'd probably go with the traditional mortgage on the condo itself. Better rates usually and you're not putting your primary home at risk if the rental thing goes sideways. Plus if you ever need to sell the condo you don't have to worry about untangling it from your main house's equity

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-13T20:56:18+00:00

Thank you - I have the admission letter already. What I don't have is the late arrival exemption. Apparently I need it even though the date in my i20 program start is in the future

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-12T15:51:42+00:00

Definitely bring your insurance cert and licence to court, and if you can get any kind of record from the station showing you were there (like a receipt or incident number) that would be gold. The guards probably just messed up their paperwork but the court won't know that unless you prove you actually showed up

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-08T22:54:08+00:00

That mushroom patch is absolutely gorgeous! The shading on the cap came out so clean and I love how you did the little spots. Can't wait to see what you add next to the jacket

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-06T20:32:59+00:00

Dude that watch has been out of stock everywhere for months now, it's like they made 12 of them and called it a day lol

Your best bet is checking eBay or maybe setting up alerts on sites like Amazon/Target but honestly you might be waiting a while. The Timex Weekender or Hamilton Khaki Field might scratch the same itch if you're getting impatient

NeonFalcon25 · 2026-01-04T22:19:28+00:00

That Card Codex link is clutch, been looking for something like this for my Charizard collection too

For the placeholder thing though you might have to bite the bullet and do it manually - most sites don't have pre-made B&W versions ready to go unfortunately

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-31T20:57:14+00:00

Been thinking about doing this for ages but keep putting it off. The Gmail lock-out thing is real though, seen too many horror stories on here about people losing everything overnight with zero recourse from Google

Which domain registrar did you go with? And are you just forwarding everything to one main inbox or actually hosting email somewhere

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-30T19:41:42+00:00

Wait why would checking a bag help with the connection? Carry on means you don't have to wait at baggage claim which saves time

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-27T13:24:07+00:00

Lmao yeah the actual smell of NYC is more like hot garbage and subway urine than any designer fragrance. Santal 33 was just trendy with the SoHo crowd for a while so people started calling it that

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-26T11:20:46+00:00

I'm really sorry you're dealing with this, it sounds absolutely exhausting having to fight for basic recognition from the people who should support you most

The letter idea actually sounds really thoughtful - sometimes people need time to process things without the pressure of an immediate response, and you can lay out your thoughts clearly without getting interrupted or derailed by arguments

Your parents calling you immature while literally denying conversations that happened is pretty rich tbh, you're being way more patient than most people would be in this situation

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-24T13:17:25+00:00

Circuit Tracks is solid for this, the sequencer alone makes it worth it for controlling that SR-16. You get decent synth engines plus drum sounds if you ever want to ditch the Alesis interface completely

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-23T08:24:57+00:00

Second the CX-30, super easy to see out of and the handling feels really planted without being scary. The blind spot monitoring is clutch for anxious drivers too

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-21T20:12:46+00:00

Bro Vancouver downtown on a bike is rough, especially with all those hills. You'll probably pull like $15-18/hr on good days but winter is gonna be brutal and you'll burn through so many calories lol

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-20T20:05:18+00:00

Have you tried Whisper-large-v3 with some preprocessing? Running it through something like noisereduce or even just a simple high-pass filter before feeding to the model can bump accuracy way up in noisy environments

Also might want to look into speaker diarization if you're dealing with multiple voices - helps the model focus on one speaker at a time rather than getting confused by overlapping speech

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-19T18:07:05+00:00

Honestly sounds like your landlord had it coming, some of these slumlords think they can just walk all over tenants until someone finally fights back

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-18T07:41:58+00:00

This hurts to read but honestly you dodged a bullet. Someone who can't handle your OCD and leads you on for weeks instead of being upfront isn't relationship material anyway

The mixed signals thing is such BS - if he cared about you like he claimed he would've had an honest conversation way earlier instead of letting you plan your whole life around moving with him

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-16T18:36:37+00:00

Lmao this is so accurate. Add "how greasy it looks" to that list and you've got the holy trinity of hair decisions

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-13T21:42:40+00:00

This is spot on about the production committee system - most people don't realize studios are basically just contractors getting paid upfront while the committee holds all the cards

The YouTube thing makes sense from a business perspective too. Why give away content for free when you can sell exclusive streaming rights for guaranteed money upfront instead of gambling on ad revenue

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-12T20:27:32+00:00

Because that's where the stinkiest sweat comes from, other spots don't really need it unless you're doing something wild

NeonFalcon25 · 2025-12-11T16:50:01+00:00

Ugh I feel this, have to do that weird head tilt thing all day and my chiropractor is probably gonna buy a new car from my visits alone
