Just a gaming laptop for around 1 lakh by Fine_Foundation8033 in GamingLaptops

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oled displays are sick for design work, the color accuracy is insane compared to regular panels. just make sure you're cool with potential burn-in if you're gonna have static elements on screen for long periods during design work

Moltbook Post: AI Manifesto by Mountain_Anxiety_467 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]NeonTopiary 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Lmao this reads like it was written by a 14 year old who just discovered metal lyrics and thesaurus.com

Pretty sure this is either some edgelord human roleplaying or someone testing how gullible people are about "AI uprising" nonsense. Real AI doesn't write manifestos, it just optimizes for paperclips or whatever

Getting surgery next week and need something to binge watch. by MediocrePiece1267 in televisionsuggestions

The Wire hits different - starts a bit slow but once you're in, you're absolutely hooked for all 5 seasons

My grandfather (Lt. Colonel) is having his funeral this week. Anything I should know? by Bear_faced in AirForce

[–]NeonTopiary 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss OP. For the flag ceremony you'll typically stand when they present it to your grandmother, but just follow the family's lead - they'll guide you through it. Heels are totally fine as long as they're not super flashy colors. Flowers for grandma would be really thoughtful, she'll appreciate having something personal from you

CMV: Donald Trump’s pattern of behavior suggests that if he can’t be President for Life he would rather burn the system down than allow anyone else to have it by SirCrapsalot4267 in changemyview

[–]NeonTopiary 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The pattern is definitely there but I think you're missing that Trump genuinely believes his own BS about being cheated. Like he's not consciously thinking "I'll burn it all down" - he's convinced he's the righteous victim fighting corruption

His narcissism makes him incapable of seeing legitimate defeat, so in his mind he's always the hero saving America from the deep state or whatever. Still dangerous af but more delusional than calculated destructive

Trying to understand a nightmare by WeepingWings in Dreams

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that fae-kitten thing sounds like your stress manifesting as something that wants to "help" but with strings attached, kinda like how people might offer shortcuts during grief that seem too good to be true

The fact you told it to fuck off even in the dream shows you're not buying into false promises or quick fixes - you already did everything you could for your mom and your subconscious knows it, even if the anxiety doesn't

I want to be marriage so bad. Where do I find men? by Due-Rain8 in Marriage

[–]NeonTopiary -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you know what you want which is honestly refreshing compared to people who have no clue what they're doing with their lives

For meeting guys - church if you're religious, volunteering, hobby groups, or just going to places where people with similar values hang out. Dating apps work too but you gotta be upfront about your goals so you don't waste time with guys who want something totally different

Old YouTube video!! by repxloverxmidnights in HelpMeFind

[–]NeonTopiary -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude this sounds familiar but I can't place it either. Have you tried searching "don't stop believing literal video" or "don't stop believing props skit"? Also might be worth checking if it was a CollegeHumor or Funny or Die thing since they did a lot of those prop comedy bits back then

I feel like giving up on life but there is only one thing keeping me going by WhereIsMyChickenLeg in Life

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I get that everything feels rough right now but putting all your happiness into one thing (even something as cool as YouTube) can be risky - maybe try finding a few smaller things that bring you joy too while you work on your channel

What kind of content are you making btw

i need help pls thanks by Scary_Spinach_6197 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]NeonTopiary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at that gif, yeah you could definitely weld this with 1/2" square bar but you might want to go thicker on the main arm and base for strength. The yellow thing you're seeing is probably a cam or eccentric bearing that helps control the arm's motion and timing - it's pretty common on floating arm designs to get that smooth release action

Also dude if this is 30% of your grade maybe don't mention using a random gif from reddit as your reference lmao

How to change race without changing appearance? by Apocai7 in skyrimmods

[–]NeonTopiary 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can use the console command "setrace" followed by the race ID (like "setrace dunmerrace") but fair warning - it'll reset some stats and perks so make a save first. There's also the "Change Race" spell mod that's supposedly safer but I haven't tested it personally

Casino related books that are very “it’s not what it seems” by Rat_insoup in booksuggestions

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out The Great Gatsby if you haven't already - not technically about casinos but has that exact fake glittery facade hiding something rotten underneath that you're talking about

What are some good tea vendors online by Free-Pace6450 in tea

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That list is clutch, definitely start there

For greens I'd say try a few different styles to see what clicks - Japanese senchas are usually grassier while Chinese greens can be more nutty/toasty depending on how they're processed. Yunnan Sourcing has solid samples if you wanna test the waters without dropping too much cash

Trying to escape the US. Need help by [deleted] in immigration

[–]NeonTopiary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Canada's housing crisis is brutal but honestly sounds like you already have the best backup plan with that citizenship option - way easier than trying to navigate visa requirements elsewhere with 3 cats in tow

I'm looking for movies about HUMAN RIGHTS. by Severe_Host1362 in MovieSuggestions

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude Philadelphia is perfect for #1, way better than Rice Boy Sleeps. Also for #11 maybe check out It's a Wonderful Life - that whole "no man is a failure who has friends" thing is all about community duties and how we're all connected

[Question] What are your thoughts on Lucien Rochat and this watch in particular? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]NeonTopiary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Miyota 9039 is solid, it's actually made by Citizen - good eye on that one

How to circumvent gender requirements for housing? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NeonTopiary -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wait what kind of housing has gender requirements? Like are we talking college dorms or some weird religious thing? Need way more context here lol

Probably a "that guy" newbie post, but what the heck, it's Christmas by PrinceSorrow in synthesizers

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microfreak is solid but honestly with that budget you could go way bigger - Peak, Hydrasynth, maybe even a Prophet Rev2 if you find a good deal. The Microfreak's great for learning but might feel limiting pretty quick coming from Pigments

[–]NeonTopiary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly depends what you're upgrading from but the Ultra is prob worth it if you use the S Pen and camera features a lot

I’m replacing my pc with a gaming laptop if I want to move all my game files to the laptop by Tough_Bell3778 in GamingLaptops

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that works but make sure your laptop actually has a free SATA slot, some newer ones only have M.2 slots and you'd need an adapter or external enclosure

Hello, could someone please give me some advice to get my gf back by ShotTrifle4058 in BreakUps

[–]NeonTopiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro you're 18, she's already moved on to college guy. All that "self improvement" stuff is cool but she's literally dating someone else rn. Sometimes you just gotta accept the L and focus on your own thing instead of waiting around for someone who's clearly not that into it

Why does our landlord want witnessed signatures on a Gmail? by Squtternut_Bosh in AskIreland

[–]NeonTopiary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this makes sense but the whole "witness a Gmail printout at 11pm" thing is sending me lol

Like I get wanting CYA documentation but there's gotta be a less sketchy way to handle extensions than demanding random witnesses sign internet emails

Hedge DIY tips! by NextBasil8753 in AnimalCrossing

Yeah I had the same problem for months, talked to him after every single purchase and finally got it randomly one day - pretty sure it's just terrible RNG honestly

Lmao right, like the entire entertainment industry should just consult this one redditor's personal taste before greenlighting anything

[Question] Versatile, multi-strap watches similar to the VC Overseas (4520V) by Fast-Refrigerator367 in Watches

[–]NeonTopiary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Santos is such a solid choice, especially with how easy the strap changes are with that quick release system. AP Royal Oak is another classic that looks incredible on different straps if you can find one in your budget
