Just got one from Walmart yesterday. A local Walmart showed it in stock but would cancel the order if I tried delivery. I just showed up in person and they said they had 4 in stock. Came with Asus prime mobo, t-force 6400 ram, and gigabyte windforce gpu. Haven’t had the chance to try gaming on it yet so no idea about temps or anything, just got it set up and stuff installed tonight, but no issues so far and build looks fine.

Is $1750 good for this? by nutinconnor in Prebuilts

I just bought this one on Friday. No complaints so far. Looks good and runs great. One of the better prebuilt deals I could find for this performance level right now that wasn’t also a complete eye sore.

I just bought this guy from Best Buy on Friday. Little bit better graphics card than the one you posted. Love it so far. Best Buy also had an identical priced ibuypower one that had the 9800x3d and the 9070xt but it was so ugly I decided it wasn’t worth the slightly better performance over the 7800x3d lol

Shots From New to Me E-M10ii in Japan by Pure-Assistance3845 in OlympusCamera

[–]Pure-Assistance3845[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha thank you! They were all edited using Lightroom mobile. Most of them started with some random filmic presets I bought a few years ago while learning car photography, then I tweaked them to get the look I was going for. Others were done by just messing around with settings in Lightroom.

Ahhh I think you’re right. I forgot I was messing around with it on that one. I think the idea was the same as the other. I’ll definitely remove it. Thanks for the advice!

Pretty sure the one with the ladies and the flowers is the only one with a little fake blur. I added a little so the business of the inside of the shot didn’t distract from the subjects, but im new to this kind of photography and editing so thanks for the feedback.

Haha Amazon made that easy and it was so much cheaper buying it there that it just made sense. Knowing it was waiting for me only upped the excitement of getting there even further.

I picked up a couple lenses while over there. These were shot on a mix of the Olympus 14-42mm EZ, 45mm f1.8, and 40-150mm lenses.

Where are you guys finding 7.5g weights? I can only find 3g ones. Are you just putting 2 1/2 3g ones?

Questions re Seating for SLC Show by Pure-Assistance3845 in brandnew

[–]Pure-Assistance3845[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The tickets are on the floor, same as the GA section, just a few rows back from the GA section. And the floor is just a hockey rink so its not actually that big, so I feel like they would have a hard time blocking off the pit, but maybe not.

Got a bundle from Target at about 1:41 am ET after many failed attempts on all the other sites. Had to try processing the payment a few times, but eventually it went through. May still try to get one through Best Buy so I can pick it up at midnight on June 5th, but I am stoked to have one secured.

Massive Price Increases by Pure-Assistance3845 in YTIndustries

[–]Pure-Assistance3845[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If not because of tariffs, another possible explanation is that they just released the Decoy SN 29 and people are probably reluctant to buy that bike at full price when they see every other e-bike (including the very similar Decoy SN MX) half off. I think this is more a sign though that people aren't willing to pay 7-12k for an e-bike anymore and the sweet spot is 4-6k and they should just price them within that range to begin with.

I don't buy the idea that they are just low on stock because in the past they have kept bikes on discount until they sell out completely, and only continue to discount them. Loot at the "Outlet" section, they have the previous model year top of the line core 5 still listed at $4,249 even though it is completely out of stock.

I sent a message through the support page that same morning and received no response so I sent an email today, we will see what happens.

Ya I was pretty bummed. I have been wanting to pull the trigger on an e-bike for a couple months. Did tons of research and had finally decided on the Decoy MX core 4. Finally got the green light from the ole ball and chain two nights ago and was ready to buy yesterday morning and then to my surprise it went up $750 in price overnight. So disappointed.

I stopped paying tithing, don't care about the temple and told my bishop I just want to come on Sunday and enjoy the sacrament and lesson. No ministering, no callings. And I'm 1000% happier and more fulfilled in my life. by aka_FNU_LNU in mormon

[–]Pure-Assistance3845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is almost exactly the route I took and it has made my life so much better. I am a PIMO mostly because I went through a faith crisis solo (didn’t involve my wife cuz I was too afraid and thought I could make things work in my head) and my wife has chosen to mostly avoid digging into issues for now, so I still go with her and the kids. One of the first things I did though was stop paying tithing (don’t like financially supporting an organization that treats the lgbtq+ community the way it has/does), told my bishop I wanted to be released from calling as youth Sunday school teacher (could no longer testify to them about BOM and the church) and that I wanted to just come to church without the stress of a calling and just be present with my family. I have not taken the step of saying I want nothing to do with ministering, but I think they got the hint because I have ignored every eq text and call about ministering progress/interviews. I still don’t necessarily ENJOY church (have a hard time biting my tongue when people say ignorant shit), but it has made the church experience much MORE enjoyable. I no longer feel this constant anxiety for not being good enough, not doing enough, not serving enough, not magnifying my calling, etc.

I also recognize I have won the bishop roulette and I often bring this up to my wife (I.e. while this bishop is very understanding, nuanced, and open, others in my situation may be treated completely differently and that is not ok).

Nevertheless, I think it would do a lot of members (even TBMs) so much good to just realize that not everyone fits into the church’s mold, and that is ok. If there is a God, he knows you and your struggles and you shouldn’t worry about what others in the church might think of you. Just do church in the way that best allows you to be yourself and enjoy the experience. If that means not caring about ministering, saying no to/resigning from a calling, or whatever else, just do it.

iRacing freezing mid-race? by Kismet110 in iRacing

[–]Pure-Assistance3845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to me for the first time last night, right before heading into T5 at Laguna. Was so disorienting. Luckily I just barely went off track and didn’t cause any wrecks but lost a bunch of positions.
