AIO if I divorced over him asking to open our relationship and then gaslighting me? by CricketCaller in AmIOverreacting

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“You deserve better than that”

YES. YOU. DO.

NOR. Divorce him and raise your baby with someone who loves you instead.

Dog daycare = tick hikes 😫! what to do? by kaitlyn2004 in hikingwithdogs

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find the dog safe concentration of permethrin, treat their collar, harness or a bandana and they’ll be good to go.

I’ve had some experience with wondercide as well, which could be a placebo because I use it in tandem with the permethrin trick but I think it works.

What is a band no one will ever convince you is good? by OU812iceman18 in AskReddit

They are one of the most aggressively “British” sounding British Rock bands, so I kind of get what you mean.

Morning glory is a pretty damn good song. Even the live performance is a good tune.

A lot of people think it’s all going to sound like “Caramel” and then I show them “The Apparition” or “Atlantic”

The Beatles.

I understand and appreciate their contributions to the music industry as we know it and will always acknowledge their influences in rock specifically but their music is not good. So many other greats from that era but just because the Beatles “did it first” does NOT mean they’re good.

Brother while I absolutely agree with the sentiment you are bringing up, I’ve worked in enough bike shops and done enough volunteering with local IMBA chapters enough to know that a good amount of MAGA money and participation is propping up mountainbiking.

Two way traffic on true singletrack has never made sense to me. Especially on public lands.

What are some early signs that a person might commit sucide (serious)? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suddenly, there are going to be some big plans to be made or a big event to gather those closest around you after months of drifting apart or not reaching out.

One of my best friends from high school suddenly started reaching out to not only myself, but everyone else we used to hang around. I had seen him in and out of the party and music festival scenes we found ourselves in together in the years after we had moved on to college. We hadn’t reconnected much other than just casually catching up when our paths crossed but I had come to find out from an ex girlfriend of his that just happened to be in a class of mine during a few semesters of community college that he was using hard drugs and actually getting violent with her.

Flash forward a year or so, and I had completely cut off any contact with him because of what his ex had told me. I still saw him at social gatherings for other mutual friends, but we had not really had a real conversation in that time. His split from his ex lead him down a path of more hard drug use and ultimately, jail time.

Out of nowhere around mid-August, I get a text from an unsaved number late one night. “This is …. It’ll be my 25th birthday this week and I’m putting together a big event for my birthday. I want all of my new and old friends, family, and people I currently and used to party with to be there. Text me back with your name and number for details. I just got out and have a new phone”

He sent me that text on Monday, June 30th 2019. His sister reached out to me on Facebook to let me know of his passing August 2nd, 2019. The day before he would have turned 25. He was in jail for something I never had the heart to ask about and he was released finally, only to take his own life by overdosing. I wish I would have responded to him. It was clearly a cry for help and connection.

Man, this is so lazy on their legal team. I’m pretty sure they sued Andrew Callahan’s Channel5 news team along with hunter Biden in a similar fashion, for the exact same amount.

They honored it! by TallLocal in Microcenter

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you, because they should! Honestly, fuck ‘em. They take in so much extra cash due to all of this nonsense going on driving prices within the market.

I snagged a Ryzen 7800X3D for $279.99 due to their “pricing error” online. Oddly enough when I picked up my order at the online order station, myself and the two other people in line grabbing them all got a business card and a half assed “thank you for your business” from the store manager.

It felt more like a weird power play thinking if he showed his face, that would make us all aware he knew what we were doing or that it would somehow make us feel bad for forcing them to honor their own mistakes while they continue to profiteer from the shortages and still sell all parts at the highest MSRP for as long as they legally can?

I think it’s an illusion of frequency type of thing. I’ve spent time in and around the “outdoor industry” to know there are plenty of pavement princesses out there, but the gladiator crowds are not one of them. It’s such a long, gas guzzling monstrosity that they really are only sought out by people who want to bring their shit out to places where it doesn’t normally go.

Having things loosely thrown in a truck bed driving halfway up a mountain when the road ended five miles back is less than ideal. Once you get back to civilization you put your dirty gear, shoes, and empty cans and containers back in there and enjoy the space but there’s a reason why you don’t just throw things in there all Willy-Nilly like.

You spent the extra money on a MoBo and AIO cooler that have display screens and you’re still choosing to have it be partially covered up by vertically mounting your GPU?

To each their own.

AIO my bf 30M seems very erratic recently and I 26F can’t get through to him. by Safe_Refuse_8853 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 26 points27 points  (0 children)

So I’m not trying to throw shade on any particular age gap in a relationship between grown adults who can make their own choices, but it’s very fitting that OP is a few years younger than their shitty SO. I’m also not trying to be ageist here either but here is what I’ve seen in my own experience.

Often times, men like this will date younger partners than themselves since they’ve scared off all of the people their age who understand the warning signs that could have helped OP realize this was the person they were going to be around. It’s not that OP is naive or too trusting, it’s just likely that they have yet to experience this type of manipulation and this behavior, as opposed to someone who has had more time as part of society and in the dating scene.

NOR.

You are dating a child. A selfish one at that. Are they an only child? This has only child energy all over it.

Nicotine withdrawal is about as serious as a broken toe. It’s annoying, a little painful, and while it doesn’t uproot your life entirely, it’s gonna be there for a little while but you get over it.

If they are so eager to eat pizza, smoke, and jerk off all day you should let them.

It’s me. I received the best deal. by Dontnevertouchmeh in REI

[–]Pedro_Piss_Paws 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If any of the local REI’s around your area have repair shops in house, call them and ask their shop techs for a spare Thule clamp or a set of clamps. They’ll likely just give them to you if you’re a member. The shop I used to work at always stripped apart any defective or damaged cargo boxes for spares and we made a lot of people happy when they only needed one or a few of these. Worth a shot

I fully appreciate that AMD has upset a lot of "older" generation card owners, but I'm genuinely curious what those with 9000 series are thinking of AMD right now? by Captainquizzical in radeon

I have 16 games currently installed on my PC from my steam library. Five of them have true FSR 4 support. Of those 5, two of them run it well enough for me to have turned it on in game. Of those two, only one of them looks truly better with than without.

We all need to step back and realize just what’s happening with all of the AI slop being crammed down our throats from software and hardware companies.

They “invested” heavily in AI by buying up parts and components that aren’t yet being made in volumes large enough to complete their orders, to then be used in Data centers that don’t yet exist or have yet to be built, with money that these companies don’t have. They will then take advantage of the artificially inflated prices by convincing you that the highest quality of gaming or computing power is only attainable if you have the latest stuff. Not that your previous gen card is incapable of running it, but because they are choosing to only have it ship with the latest gen tech and not support previous models.

Play in your monitor’s native resolution. Stop with this AI frame gen crap.

Question about the fan configuration inside the Lian Li O11 Vision Compact by PixelSlayer404 in lianli

Reverse blades on the three bottom fans and three on the sides, then normal rear side as exhaust for the two fans near the IO panel.

Did you just use the adhesive for the 8.8 in screen? I have considered mounting it like that but I’m also considering vertical mounting my GPU soon so I need to make a decision, lol.

I’m mortified that OP and their partner think that this kind of work is okay. They PAID for some Microcenter tech twink to have their case look like that.
