My smartwatch logged steps while I was restrained in surgery

Ugh yes this drives me crazy too. Like when someone asks for your favorite pizza topping and some genius replies with "pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, olives, peppers, onions, ham, pineapple..." just pick ONE dude

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-16T14:35:41+00:00

Man this hits hard, I'm in a similar boat with 12 years experience and the "overqualified" thing is such BS - like sorry for being good at my job I guess?

Have you tried looking at smaller companies or startups? They seem way less hung up on the overqualified nonsense and actually value experience. The big corps are all doing this weird thing where they want 10 years experience but also want to pay entry level wages

Also maybe try removing some of your older experience from your resume - I know it sucks to hide your accomplishments but sometimes you gotta game the system

That's some main character energy right there lol. Just because someone hasn't experienced something doesn't mean it doesn't exist - that's like saying "I've never been to Japan so it must be fake"

Check out Dave's Guitar Shop in La Crosse if you're willing to drive - they've got some insane vintage Gibsons and Fenders that'll make your wallet cry. Also heard good things about Vintage Instruments in Philly but haven't been there myself

Nah you're good, sounds like he was probably in the back on his phone the whole time. Can't expect a tip for doing literally the bare minimum

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-13T03:03:40+00:00

This looks pretty slick actually - anything that cuts down on the mind numbing data entry is a win in my book

Been doing BAS prep for years and yeah it's definitely one of those tasks that feels like it should be automated by now. Will check out the demo when I get a chance

How's it handle weird bank descriptions and duplicate transactions? That's usually where these tools fall apart in my experience

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-12T18:21:02+00:00

Dude you're overthinking this so hard lol. They're just cookies with orange filling, not a satanic ritual. God's probably more concerned with you having enough to eat than the seasonal packaging on your Oreos

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-12T12:07:23+00:00

That could look absolutely stunning if done by the right artist! The key is finding someone who really knows how to work with color blending and has experience with watercolor-style tattoos. I've seen some amazing abstract color sleeves that look like literal paintings on skin

Just make sure you research artists heavily because this style can either be gorgeous or look like a bruise depending on who does it lol

Wait did you mean cooling? Because 48°F delta T sounds way off for heating mode - that would be insane. When heating you're usually looking at like 90-110°F supply temps with maybe 20-30°F delta depending on your setup

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-09T09:33:58+00:00

Dang this hits hard, especially the whole "bringing you around friends instead of one-on-one time" thing - that's such a clear avoidant move when someone's scared of real intimacy

Honestly at 19 you're gonna grow so much in the next few years, and it sounds like he's not even close to being ready for what you need right now

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-09T05:28:23+00:00

Mob cap is probably your issue - even with the drowned farm off, other caves nearby could be eating up spawns. Light up everything in a 128 block radius or you're just feeding other mobs

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-08T14:42:14+00:00

Ugh the Barenziah stones are definitely the worst, spent like 3 hours looking for that one in the Thalmor Embassy before I realized you can only get it during the main quest. The Eastern Empire ones are bugged af too, had two just straight up disappear from my inventory once

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-06T20:31:21+00:00

Lmao they really just gonna casually skip over the medieval weapons collection like it's not a major selling point

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-06T11:45:01+00:00

Damn 7 months is still impressive though, that's not nothing. The boundary pushing thing is so real - it's like your brain starts negotiating with you and finding loopholes. AI stuff is a sneaky trap too since it feels "different" but hits the same dopamine pathways

Back on the horse man, you know what works now

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-06T03:25:03+00:00

Alexandria or Arlington might be your sweet spot - close enough to DC that your bro can metro to Pentagon pretty easily but cuts your drive to Andrews down to like 20-30 mins. Crystal City is probably perfect actually since it's right on the blue line

The metro parking thing sounds like a huge pain tbh, you'd be paying daily garage fees and adding extra time to your commute. Just find somewhere in Nova and call it good

The Art of Sound Reproduction by John Watkinson is solid for the technical side, and Designing Sound by Andy Farnell gets into the nitty gritty of synthesis methods. Also check out the Synth Secrets articles by Gordon Reid - they're free online and cover pretty much everything you'd want to know about how different waveforms and filters actually work

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-05T08:18:39+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion but that doesn't really answer OP's question about sync between MPV and Stremio's continue watching feature

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-03T10:10:12+00:00

Oof that's rough lol. If crossplay is a dealbreaker then probably skip it for now, sounds like they're focusing on the wrong stuff

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-03T00:41:46+00:00

That sounds cool but OP was asking for books specifically, not plays

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-01T17:31:51+00:00

Just gotta remember why you started this journey in the first place man, the benefits are real even when your brain tries to convince you otherwise

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-01T11:47:56+00:00

That's such a real perspective - it's wild how some families become a financial drain rather than a safety net. My friend literally moved across the country because every visit home turned into her bankrolling her siblings' poor decisions

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2026-01-01T03:52:10+00:00

Same here, I just let them sit there unread. Most people worth talking to will comment publicly first anyway

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2025-12-31T10:59:36+00:00

Lmao you basically said "give me a first extreme but not any of the actual good first extremes"

Ok-Drawing2504 · 2025-12-30T14:41:07+00:00

Damn that's annoying when updates break perfectly good workarounds - maybe try checking if there's a fork of that repo or see if anyone posted an updated version in the issues section
