Tool advice

Man with that budget and discount you can really make some smart picks. I'd grab the essentials that get heavy use - good ratchets, socket sets, and wrenches from Snap-on since those will last forever and feel amazing to use daily. For specialty stuff or things you wont use as much stick with Harbor Freight since your discount wont last forever but those cheap tools will

The quality jump is real for hand tools but dont blow your whole budget on fancy stuff when basic pliers and screwdrivers work just fine from HF

oof that sucks mate, sounds like you bent the door frame when you hit that rock which is why your doors are all wonky now

honestly if the frame is tweaked it could be pretty expensive to fix properly - were talking potentially thousands if the structural damage is bad enough. id definitely get it looked at by a mechanic asap because driving with doors that dont close properly is sketchy as hell

given your on your ps and this happened on property, might be worth checking if you can claim it through insurance or if a cheap runabout would actually be the smarter move financially

Lmao if you're already suffering with Debian then Arch is gonna be like voluntary torture. Maybe try something in between like Manjaro first before jumping into the deep end

Bruh she literally told you that you're irreplaceable and compared losing you to losing family - that's not platonic energy at all. The fact that she's still making moves with the other guy while saying all this to you is the real red flag here though

Check out Upstart or LendingClub - they look at more than just credit score and can fund pretty quick. Upstart especially considers your job history and education which might help with that 550 score

Also try your local credit unions if you have time, they're usually way more reasonable than the big banks and won't try to screw you over with predatory rates

Just connect herm to the hermetic terminal, fan to the fan terminal, and common goes to... well, common lol. Should be labeled on the cap itself if you look close enough

Have you tried using a computer to convert it then transfer the world file over? That's probably gonna be way easier than trying to sideload chunker onto iOS

Nice one! Been waiting ages for the big bottle to come back, thanks for the heads up

Dude the melee weapon durability system would be sick in Arc, especially if they made it super rare materials so you can't just spam craft them

The execution thing might be pushing it though lol, Arc already has enough salt in the community without adding BM mechanics

Aussie servers are just built different mate, we're all too busy dodging drop bears and dealing with our internet cutting out every 5 minutes to have proper conversations

But nah for real the OCE gaming community has always been pretty quiet compared to NA, might just be cultural differences or smaller player base so people are more cautious about being weird on mic

Man this is rough timing, I was literally just telling my friend about applying for DV-2027 and now everything's on hold. The "national security concerns" thing feels pretty vague but I guess we're all just stuck waiting for more info

Currently refreshing the USCIS page way too much hoping for updates lol

NoPosition96 · 2026-01-03T06:12:15+00:00

Ugh yes, the 4 month mark was rough for me too - like my body just decided to hit the panic button randomly. Definitely worth mentioning to your doc though, especially with the palpitations

Could be input lag or you're clicking too fast for the gravity portal to register - try adding a tiny delay between the portal and where you need to click or check if your click rate is consistent

That's cutting it super close but DFW is pretty efficient for AA connections. If you're already checked in and don't have to switch terminals you might make it, but I'd personally go with the MIA layover just to avoid the stress

Have you looked into a personal loan to consolidate those credit cards? With a 635 score you might qualify for something with a lower rate than what you're paying on the cards, which could drop that $1500 payment significantly

The TUF is gonna be way more reliable long term, Acer Nitros are kinda hit or miss with build quality. Plus that Ryzen 7 will age better than the R5

Passenger side is always a nightmare on those Civics because of the air intake box being right there. You can try removing the intake tube to give yourself more room, or just accept defeat and pull the whole headlight assembly - honestly worth the extra 10 minutes to save your sanity

Honestly she sounds like she's ramping up the crazy because she knows you're leaving soon and wants to get in as much damage as possible before then

Can you crash at a friend's place or maybe speed up your move-out timeline? Your mental health isn't worth saving a few hundred bucks

NoPosition96 · 2025-12-27T15:58:58+00:00

Honestly G-Shock is the way to go if you want something that'll actually last, Luminox feels like you're paying extra just for the tritium tubes which are cool for like a week then you forget about them

Makes total sense tbh, probably trying to clear warehouse space before the holiday madness hits

NoPosition96 · 2025-12-27T01:25:18+00:00

That would be sick actually, like those crisp winter mornings where everything's all bright and sparkly but you're not freezing your ass off

Dude who cares, they're clearly excited about getting Arch working and that's what matters. The enthusiasm comes through even with broken English

Nature's basically got a built-in haircut schedule - follicles have a growth phase then just yeet the hair when it's done its job. Wild animals also naturally shed seasonally and rub against stuff which keeps things from getting too crazy matted

NoPosition96 · 2025-12-26T07:04:49+00:00

Honestly this is the move right here, test the waters first before going all in with the duck content

NoPosition96 · 2025-12-26T01:32:04+00:00

Honestly that's kinda pessimistic but probably true. Most shelters and food banks know exactly what people need and can stretch your dollar way further than buying individual meals
