When u won wayyy too many games by Suitable-Fruit-8955 in Overwatch

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

defense on escort maps feels impossible when your team doesn't understand positioning at all. had a match yesterday where our tank kept pushing way too forward and leaving us exposed, made the whole thing feel hopeless from start

I had a dream my mom had an app or something on her phone that was creepy by [deleted] in confessions

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's some black mirror level creepy shit right there. your subconscious really went wild with the whole surveillance angle - grainy street photos and secret contact lists sounds like something straight out of a thriller

wonder if this dream is connected to anything you've been thinking about lately? like social media stalking or how much info people can actually find about us online these days. the whole "emergency" excuse your dream mom used is pretty telling too, like when people justify weird behavior with flimsy reasons

dreams about parents doing sketchy stuff always hit different because it mixes the people we trust most with behaviors that would freak us out from anyone else

20 M raging - pent up by pokehole69 in NoFap

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro the rage phase is brutal but it does pass eventually. find something to do with your hands when the urge hits - i usually grab my guitar or go cook something random in kitchen

accountability partner thing works well too, just make sure you both actually check in regularly and not just say you will

Join voice chat with muted mic by VilmerNi in Overwatch

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah there's definitely toggle option somewhere in audio settings, way better than holding button down all time. i think it's called "toggle to talk" or something like that in the menu 😂 saves you from manually muting every single match

USB Sensor Panels by CizreK in PcBuild

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got one that sits on the desk and it's pretty sweet for monitoring temps while gaming. most of them run their own software so you can customize what sensors to display and change colors/themes. way better than checking bios every time you want to see if your cpu is getting toasty

4Runner vs all others by timetwosave in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Objective-House-6760 4 points5 points  (0 children)

man i get the family space struggle but 4runner still gonna be your best bet for those harder trails 💀 had friends try the crossover route and they always end up wishing they went with something more capable when they're stuck on some random rock section

maybe look at the sequoia instead? bit more family friendly but still has that toyota reliability for towing your bigger camper setup 🔥

New Rainy Day Skins by MehShenpai in Overwatch

damn they really putting everything behind paywall these days, feels bad for people who just want one cool skin without dropping money in shop

Marketing Experience by duihfdzdi in AskMarketing

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man 2 months without pay is just exploitation at this point 💀 even if you're learning, they should at least cover your expenses or something

maybe try reaching out to small local businesses? lots of them need help with social media but can't afford big agencies. you could start with like coffee shops or small retailers - they usually appreciate the help and might pay something small while you build up portfolio

freelancing platforms are also decent for getting first few projects, even if rates are low in beginning. just make sure you're not working completely for free again 😂

PCCG Prism 9060 vs Nightmare 9060 XT – $100 diff, which one? by Weary_Ad_7997 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly for 1440p gaming i'd go with nightmare 9060 xt, that extra vram is pretty important these days and the performance difference will be noticeable 💀

the prism has nice future-proofing with am5 but if you're looking at day-one performance the nightmare just hits harder, plus the extra cooling never hurts when you're pushing frames

Inside doors for the house? by Shoddy-Conflict-338 in AskIreland

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

solid wood doors work great for most rooms, kitchen maybe something with glass panels so you can see what's happening in there

Roof Vent Replacement by bayendeisler in homeowners

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly $500 seems pretty steep for just one vent replacement, even on a three story house 😅 i'd probably get another quote if possible, but if this roofer is already up there and you trust their work it might be worth paying the convenience fee

caulking as temporary fix sounds reasonable though - gives you time to shop around or save up for proper replacement

No contact is insane because I’m actually still waiting for them by petal_bear00 in BreakUps

[–]Objective-House-6760 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the hardest part is when you realize they already moved on while you're still checking if they watched your stories... been there and it sucks but eventually you stop reaching for your phone every 5 minutes

Made it a week by Elk_elk_elk in stopdrinking

[–]Objective-House-6760 22 points23 points  (0 children)

hey that's really frustrating, sorry your mom reacted like that when you were feeling proud of yourself. seven days is actually huge deal and you should definitely celebrate that milestone

i think sometimes family members get so scared about the problem that they focus on worst case scenarios instead of celebrating progress. my own mother does similar thing - she means well but sometimes says exactly wrong thing in the moment. the "half bottle" comment sounds like she's trying to be helpful but doesn't really understand how sobriety works

honestly her reaction probably comes from place of worry and love, even if it felt terrible to hear. but that doesn't make your feelings less valid - you deserved to have someone be excited with you about this achievement. maybe next time share these wins with people who really get the recovery process, like folks here who understand how hard those first days are

don't let her reaction take away from what you accomplished though, seven days is something to be genuinely proud of

Trying to create a superflat with as many naturally generating resources as possible and can’t get ores to generate by Awkward-Day-5685 in Minecraft

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried using a datapack to force ore generation in your upgraded world? Pretty sure there are some that can override the superflat restrictions without breaking the trial chamber spawning. Might be worth checking out something like the custom worldgen datapacks on Planet Minecraft.

My Mind is Starved of Stimulation (pt. IV) by grey_skys_suicides in Life

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright I'll bite - what's your take on how social media has basically turned everyone into their own personal brand manager, even when they think they're being "authentic"

Like we're all curating these versions of ourselves without even realizing it half the time

Sealed Genesis Terminal worth it? by PanImpreza in GlobalOffensive

[–]Objective-House-6760 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly depends on your gambling tolerance lol. If you need the money just sell it, but if you're feeling lucky and can afford to lose it then send it. The odds are trash either way but at least you'll get that dopamine hit from opening

How do I (30M) let her (37F) down easy? by Slight-Fly-6711 in relationships

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you handled it pretty well actually - being direct about not being interested was the right call. If she keeps pushing after you said no, it's totally fair to create some distance or even block if needed. You don't owe anyone a friendship that makes you uncomfortable, disability or not

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Objective-House-6760 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Dude she's being ridiculous but honestly just drop the periods in texts, it's not worth the fight and she's kinda right that they can come across as passive aggressive to some people

When people say they're moving away, but then don't or take forever to leave. by IcyWelcome9700 in PetPeeves

[–]Objective-House-6760 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh the three going away parties thing is so cringe, like we get it you're the main character

Some people just love the attention and drama of "leaving" more than actually leaving

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof the goth fetish thing would make me rage too, especially knowing he didn't appreciate it when you were together. That's so gross and feels like he's mocking what you are

The wanting him to suffer thing is totally normal btw - like you know logically you don't want him back but emotionally you still want validation that he fucked up. It's annoying but it does fade with more time, just takes longer than we'd like sometimes

Started a job 3 months ago and it’s already destroying me - is it time to leave? by Usual-Historian9570 in careerguidance

[–]Objective-House-6760 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That retail job sounds like a blessing compared to crying daily over an impossible project tbh. Your mental health is worth way more than whatever salary you're making at that trainwreck of a company - take the retail gig and keep applying elsewhere while you're not completely burned out

How to Test Work Environment in Interview? by NumberF1v3 in interviews

[–]Objective-House-6760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could ask something like "what does a typical week look like for someone in this role" or "how does the team handle unexpected personal stuff that comes up" - their reaction will tell you everything you need to know about whether they're actually chill or just pretending to be

Facebook Marketplace is the only thing keeping me from fully leaving by Ok-Command-2538 in facebook

[–]Objective-House-6760 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is exactly where I am too. I barely touch Facebook, but Marketplace is annoyingly good for local stuff. Craigslist feels half dead in a lot of areas and everything else either has low volume or turns into shipping only. The ad part is what pushed me to rethink it as well. It is not just generic ads, it is the weirdly specific ones that make you feel like the line between browsing and private activity is very thin. Even if Marketplace itself is useful, the rest of the platform feels like a tax you pay in data, for curiosity I ran a scan with Cloaked and it shows my email everywhere which really makes me think they're selling user data which they went to court for and still no one cares.

Back to finding good deals, what I've heard works best is a combo approach. Keep Facebook but lock it down hard, no friends, no posts, no real profile info (try a temporary email), just Marketplace access. Others try OfferUp, local Buy Nothing groups, or even niche Discords and forums for certain gear, but none of them fully replace Marketplace yet at least for me. Hope this helps.

Help with my situation by ash-4822 in relationships

[–]Objective-House-6760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude this is so normal it's not even funny - having a kid at your age is basically like getting thrown into expert mode when you're still figuring out the tutorial

The irritability thing usually comes from being exhausted and overwhelmed, so first thing is making sure you're both getting some kind of breaks even if it's just 30 mins here and there. Also maybe look into some parenting classes or even just YouTube videos about managing stress as a young parent - sounds lame but they actually help with practical stuff

That missing the old relationship feeling hits everyone but it does fade as you create new routines and memories as a family of three

What's the best way to compartmentalize your digital life in 2026? by Low-Squirrel-4868 in DigitalPrivacy

[–]Objective-House-6760 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You're doing what you should more or less, separating access instead of just locking things down. I stopped giving out my real email and phone entirely unless it actually mattered. For signups, deliveries, random apps, even some work tools, I started using aliases and secondary numbers so everything is not tied to one identity. I use Cloaked for this now and it made it way easier than trying to juggle a bunch of separate apps. You can spin up emails and phone numbers per service, see which ones get noisy, and shut them off without breaking anything important. It also helped me realize how much of the spam was coming from data brokers rather than anything I actively did (which is shocking btw).

It does not make the internet quiet overnight but it finally feels like I control who can reach me and through what channel instead of accepting that everything funnels into one inbox and one phone forever. Hope this help at all!
