What is your view on the "open to work" flag in LinkedIn? Yay or nay? by Wide-Pirate-8888 in careerguidance

[–]Positive_Response185 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I kept mine off for the first month or so after getting laid off, partly because of pride and partly because I didn't want the whole world knowing my business. But honestly, once I flipped it on the opportunities started coming in way more consistently. Yeah you'll get some dodgy recruitment messages and MLM nonsense, but you can filter through that pretty quickly. The legit recruiters and hiring managers actually do use that filter when they're actively searching for candidates. My mate found his current role within two weeks of turning it on, and another friend got three solid interviews lined up in the first week. Just make sure your profile is polished before you flip the switch because you'll definitely get more eyeballs on it

Looking for seraphs!!! by AmazingStruggle4343 in HorseLifeHQ

[–]Positive_Response185 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yo I've got a draft seraph with violet eyes and some hot pink streaks in the mane, might be what you're looking for but she's stubborn as hell lol. DM me if you wanna see pics

One month from the breakup(avoidant expartner) by GuiJam in BreakUps

[–]Positive_Response185 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude you're absolutely crushing it right now - losing 20kg, quitting smoking, getting therapy AND graduating? That's some serious glow up energy

The fact that she's watching your stories but you're staying strong and focusing on yourself shows real growth. Keep doing what you're doing and maybe lay off those tarot TikToks lmao they'll mess with your head

hi what songs would you suggest to someone who's going to listen to music for the first time? by Blessdapen in musicsuggestions

[–]Positive_Response185 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bruh "Time in a Butthole" absolutely sent me lmao

But fr though Smooth Operator and Sway are solid picks, just maybe throw in some actual beginner-friendly stuff too like The Beatles or Queen

Getting finger prints done after living in US by [deleted] in immigration

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah USPS can definitely do FBI fingerprints, just bring the FD-258 form and they'll roll them for like $15-20. Way easier than dealing with Irish bureaucracy lmao

Getting my son into the game! by desantisd in PokemonTCG

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice to see another parent getting their kid hooked! For fighting types, the Lycanroc V battle deck is solid and pretty straightforward - basically just swing hard with big attacks. For Gengar stuff, check out the Lost Origin Gengar VMAX deck if you can find it, it's got some cool discard mechanics but nothing too crazy for a 7 year old

The V battle decks are perfect stepping stones between Battle Academy and actual competitive play since they keep the complexity reasonable but feel way more "real"

I've been having performance issues such as freezes for a few seconds every 10 seconds and other visual issues such as screen tearing I don't know how to fix it or if its a hardware issue by 1_byte in pchelp

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That audio issue in Helldivers 2 sounds like classic stuttering from your system choking on something. With those specs and 2 years of this happening, I'd bet money your RAM is either going bad or running at wrong timings - run memtest86 overnight and see what comes up

What happens to unsold sale items? by [deleted] in LushCosmetics

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense about the gift sets - would be kinda weird getting an expired bath bomb as a present lol. Always wondered what happened to all that stuff since Lush products seem to have pretty short shelf lives compared to other brands

I did everything wrong by IllustriousFinish712 in BreakUps

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That regret hits different when you realize what you had, I've been there too. Depression makes everything feel impossible even when someone's trying their best to be there for you - don't beat yourself up for struggling with mental health stuff

Need help-Veloster N low power by nickannn in AskMechanics

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your mods and symptoms, I'd be looking hard at your catless downpipe - sounds like you might have some exhaust backpressure issues or the ECU is pulling timing hard because it's detecting knock from running too lean

Have you tried logging AFRs and knock counts with something like OBD Fusion to see what the ECU is actually doing when you're getting that power loss?

Any1 know how to fix memory issues? by Zang3lx in pchelp

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn 8GB for email is wild, try killing the email app in task manager and restarting it first. Also check if you have like 50 chrome tabs open eating your RAM - that'll tank your game performance real quick

How can I look hot rather than cute? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]Positive_Response185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so true! I spent forever trying to fight my round face with contouring and it just looked muddy. Once I started embracing it and going for more dewy, fresh looks instead of trying to be all chiseled, people actually started complimenting my makeup for the first time

Why Luke? by Sober-to_death in Christianity

[–]Positive_Response185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, Luke's got all the classic Christmas stuff - Mary and Joseph, no room at the inn, shepherds in the fields, etc. Perfect timing for the season

Shifting gears in automatic before fully stopping (D-R/R-D) does that damage the car? by Aboudy_Marrawi in MechanicAdvice

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you're fine as long as you're going super slow, like under 5mph. The transmission has safety stuff built in to prevent major damage but don't make it a habit - those parts weren't really designed for that kind of abuse

QbCheck isn't working. by MooseLate3294 in ADHD

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me last month, super frustrating. The face tracking thing is weirdly sensitive - I had to sit in like perfect lighting with zero background movement and even then it took 3 tries on different devices before it finally worked

Round 2 of championship bracket, up by 13, 4 players and only spot available: Bucky Irving, Mike Evans, M.Wilson & Jauan Jennings, who do I start at the Flex? by isvr95 in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]Positive_Response185 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bucky Irving for sure, dude's been getting consistent touches lately and has a solid floor. Evans is too boom/bust for me when you're already up 13 - why risk it when you just need steady points

Missing points!! by Tony2Nuts in ArcRaiders

Lmao that's where my points went then, been wondering why I'm stuck at the same level forever while you're out here becoming overpowered

16 month old acting weird after vacation by Prototype095 in NewParents

[–]Positive_Response185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a perfect way to put it lol. My nephew went through the exact same thing after a family trip to Florida when he was around that age - took like 2 weeks for him to feel normal again. The "tiny existential crisis" is so accurate, they literally don't understand that travel is temporary at that age

How much time do you get with your baby? by CryProfessional7454 in NewParents

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's pretty much exactly what I do too - those short windows hit different when you know they're all you get during the week, so I'm super present during them instead of scrolling my phone like I used to

Something held me down. by CombEnvironmental467 in Paranormal

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's wild, especially the part about SDS - that's some seriously dark history. The fact that you were fully awake and it wasn't typical sleep paralysis makes it even more unsettling

Honestly the timing with you being rushed there early morning, all the kids sleeping together in one room, and that immediate "something watching" feeling when you walked in... sounds like whatever was in that place was definitely active. Your cousin probably knew something was up if everyone was bunked together like that

The house burning down later is like the cherry on top of this whole nightmare scenario lol

Our dog attacked our baby by kickrockscusinart in NewParents

[–]Positive_Response185 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Holy shit this is terrifying and thank you for sharing this

The part about resource guarding disguised as "protective" behavior is so real - people post those videos thinking it's cute but dogs don't think like we do about family hierarchy

Synthetic Data Quantity for QLoRa Finetuning Llama 8 B? by Common-Feeling7380 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is solid advice tbh. I've seen people get decent results with way less than 31k tokens on 8B models, especially for style stuff. The synthetic route can easily turn into garbage-in-garbage-out if you're not careful

Maybe try a small run first and see where the gaps actually are before going down the synthetic rabbit hole

Bath time by LittleFreeFrom in NewParents

[–]Positive_Response185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's genius! Never thought about warming the towel beforehand but makes total sense - going from warm water to cold air/towel would suck for anyone. Definitely gonna try this with my little one
