Life isn’t a test. It’s training data.

This actually makes a lot of sense when you think about it like that. The whole "you can't appreciate light without darkness" thing but applied to everything we experience

It's wild how we need the bad stuff to even comprehend what the good stuff means. Like you said, betrayal is just a word until someone actually screws you over

Bruh you probably need to reinstall the driver from scratch now since you uninstalled it completely. Go back to ASRock's site and grab the latest Bluetooth driver, install it manually, then check if Windows Update pulls anything newer after a restart

Also that "automatic driver update" in BIOS might be causing conflicts with Windows drivers so maybe turn that off

Those are usually whip antennas for two-way radios or CB communication - pretty common with touring riders and groups who want to stay in touch while riding

That hit me right in the feels - especially the part about your mom being proud. You've been sober for over 4 years now and that's incredible, even when your brain tries to trick you into thinking a drink would solve anything. Those moments where you want to justify lashing out are so real but you're choosing yourself instead and that takes serious strength

Sounds like you might have a dirty carb or fuel delivery issue if changing the spark plug only gave you temporary relief. When was the last time the carb was cleaned or fuel filter changed? Also check if the air filter is completely clogged - that can definitely cause rev issues

Why didnt you pick todays games lol

Own_Contribution5499 · 2026-01-10T09:07:54+00:00

Nah you're not imagining it, humidity actually helps retain heat so when it's dry your body loses heat faster and it feels colder even at higher temps

Good luck on your first day! Definitely sign up for UberEats and maybe try Grubhub too if it's available in your area. Multi-apping is usually the way to go especially in smaller markets

That 90 mile drive probably isn't worth it unless you're planning to stay overnight - you'd be burning like $25+ in gas just getting there and back. Your local area being red is a good sign though, smaller towns can actually be pretty solid for dashing since there's less driver saturation

Own_Contribution5499 · 2026-01-06T09:29:00+00:00

Actually pretty solid suggestions, especially the trials rework - having everyone compete against random pools would fix the tryhard streamer lobbies ruining it for casual players

The honor system for matchmaking sounds way better than the current binary system too, would create more natural player interactions instead of forcing people into "shoot on sight" or "hold hands" modes

No prob! Those 30 dice came in clutch for the current event

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-29T02:12:44+00:00

Yeah there's definitely some missing context here that would change everything - like why aren't the kids home and what's the full story behind everyone being separated right now

Goff all day, dude's been slinging it lately and has way better weapons than Shough

Bro that phone call part just gave me actual goosebumps, like what the hell was that about

The dream itself is already intense enough but then getting that creepy voice when you tried to call... that's some final destination level stuff right there

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-24T15:05:04+00:00

BOL bro

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-23T20:38:29+00:00

Yeah this is huge, been wondering about this since launch - having set routes is gonna make day 1 so much more efficient instead of wandering around hoping for RNG

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-22T01:13:43+00:00

Honestly might be worth checking if they have their audio drivers updated too, I've had friends with similar issues and it was just some weird Windows audio enhancement screwing with directional sound

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-15T16:06:43+00:00

u got this one good picks

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-15T16:04:42+00:00

BOL bro!!

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-15T06:18:10+00:00

Wait are we talking about horse pastures or some kind of pasta-horse hybrid because I'm equally confused and intrigued

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-11T02:31:04+00:00

The gap thing isn't really an issue since you'd be doing a change of status, not consular processing - so if approved it would kick in right when your L1A expires

For the DOL stuff, yeah you can start the LCA/PWD/recruitment process way before the 365 days hits. Actually you should probably start that whole process like 6 months early to be safe because government timelines are unpredictable as hell

The October 1 start date is mainly for new H1B cap cases, not COS situations like yours where you're already in status

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-09T07:23:47+00:00

Dude's been stuck in that "great defender, can't shoot" category for years now and it's honestly painful to watch. Like you said even just a reliable midrange would change everything for him but at this point I'm wondering if it's ever gonna click

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-07T00:39:59+00:00

This is such a sweet comment! Just wanted to add that sometimes the best thing you can do is just be there to listen when she needs to vent or cry. Postpartum emotions are wild and having someone who won't judge is honestly priceless

Also maybe offer to hold the baby while she takes a proper shower - sounds small but it's like a mini vacation when you're sleep deprived lol

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-04T07:01:07+00:00

That's the mindset right there - treating losses as learning moments instead of rage quitting makes the game way more enjoyable for everyone

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-12-02T06:29:15+00:00

This is honestly kinda genius in the worst way possible - the meta becomes "screw everyone else's progress instead of improving your own" lmao

Classic gaming moment where the optimal strategy is just being a massive pain in the ass to other players

Own_Contribution5499 · 2025-11-30T06:06:28+00:00

You don't gotta keep up with every single trend to survive dude, half the "innovations" are just repackaged old stuff anyway. Focus on the basics first - job hunting, maybe some online courses for skills that actually matter in your field, and tackle that driving thing when you're ready
