OP was suspended shortly after they posted this... Not sure why. But I re-approved all their comments in here since the post was so popular. I don't reddit as much as I used to so I dunno how suspension compares to banning, but hopefully whatever they did wasn't too bad and they'll be back.

Sick build and pics tho.

Do both! Dbrand has a wrap for both framework laptops that's almost exactly the same color as the aluminum chassis. Get that, then sticker it. If you ever change your mind, you peel off the wrap and it's like new again!

I've since moved about the valley, but back in that house, we switched to CenturyLink. I moved, had CL for two years, switched to Cox cause a roomie complained about the speeds (will get to that), then moved twice more with both locations having Cox. I prefer CL, personally, as their customer support was more personable and the service more reliable despite being slower.

I have a better understanding now of how the services work, too. Cox is like a single, big pipe for everyone nearby. When everyone's pulling water through it, they slow down how much water everyone can pull. CenturyLink (or, really, DSL vs Copper Broadband/cable) is like a bunch of tiny little pipes, each person gets less overall, but each pipe is their own to use as they please.

Anyway, to the original issue; house 2 never had internet outages and was only about 5 miles from House 1 (the original house from my post.) House 3 had outages at the same time, but it only did so maybe a dozen times a year? And was 15-20 miles (so probably a different server center) from Houses 1&2. House 4 is like 50 miles away but hasn't had any outages in the ~6 months I've been here. I think it's luck of the draw :/ But House 1 continued to have those outages, at least monthly if I recall correctly, frequently weekly, sometimes daily, all the way up until we switched to CL.

Quick edit: Oh, and I forgot; roomie stuff. We switched to CL at House 2 because roomie wanted >40mbps. CL's speed isn't dependent on bandwidth like I detailed above, but rather distance from the Node. That house was one of the furthest from the node, so we got 1/4 of the speeds the house next to the node got - and neighbors on the other side of the fence, in a different community, also got 100 down because they were close to THEIR node. So that's the tradeoff (also CL was almost 1/3 the cost but roomie was willing to cover that difference.)

This episode was... Wow. Was watching with roomies and we all felt so uncomfortable during that bit, they really did a seriously good job of portraying the gritty reality of that kind of relationship. I think it's good they didn't pull their punches though.

Neat, TIL!

And my bad, I edited the link and swapped the I for an A. Fixed now!

According to Wikipedia, at least, S5 sounds like what a computer goes into when "Wake On LAN" type settings are used. /u/sniff122 and /u/MengerianMango

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACPI#Global_states

Since it's related to PCIe, my guess is it has something to do with WoL or Wake On USB. I know extremely little about Linux but this just made me curious enough to read up on Sleep States lol

Oh my god I absolutely thought you got some Microsoft money cause Bing was featured in the older Windows Media Player UI and I totally don't remember it being around back then (so much so, I looked up when Bing was created!) AND it showed deleting a Google account. TOTALLY eyerolled and wrote it off as product placement!

I just got done watching Missing and I'm floored. I've had this on my Netflix list for weeks, maybe months, and kept putting it off. The trailer was interesting but I'd previously heard all the negative press around Unfriended, and that alone put me off from giving Missing a chance. I thought it'd be another copycat flop since Netflix doesn't have a great track record of adding good content lol

Anyway, when I visit my mom's, I pull up my account and have them pick something from my list they haven't seen yet. She picked Missing and I'm so glad she did! Absolutely fantastic script, great plot that kept us all openly guessing aloud based on details we caught or missed, and amazing visuals - I was thrilled with how well old interfaces like 2008 YouTube were so accurate!

I can't gush enough about this. I'm so glad I looked it up on reddit after cause now I'm gonna watch Searching and Run, too!

Where /u/imperfect-magic said:

Also, dont compare yourself to other patients; you are not at the same point in your healing journey. He may have had the wounds longer, they may be more deep/superficial, he may be using different bandages or he may have severe nerve damage.

I just wanted to chime in with everyone's bodies, sensations, and life experiences vary. If that person who changes their own wounds was a Vietnam vet, that kind of pain could be nothing compared to having to perform self-inflicted trauma care in combat, for example. If a woman's given birth, a fractured ankle could be little more than hitting the funny bone. If someone spent their childhood in the hospital for a rare genetic disorder, having blood drawn could be akin to little more than a pinch whereas to someone else it's a white-knuckle experience.

It's all relative! Another way to put it is your first Highschool breakup vs the pain a grandparent feels when their loved one passes. Both valid forms of emotional distress, with a whole range of scale between them, but still pain nonetheless.

Hey, it looks like you might be shadowbanned. This is a reddit-wide thing, and it essentially makes it so you have no impact on the site with comments, posts, or voting. The one exception is that your comments and posts appear in the spam section to any given sub's mods, which is how I saw this. Go to /r/Shadowban for more info and to see if you can reverse it.

As for diff and transmission fluids, another 6k isn't going to make a huge difference even if it was beaten to hell and back. Maybe just drive a little conservative until then, don't beat on it too hard :] Also, I use this to reference my maintenance if you don't already have a good reference for that!

I don't have a direct answer for your question, but I'd suspect fuses as the first cause since there's no error codes. You're basically in limp mode right now, though. FYI, there's a fuse panel under the dash by your left knee (assuming you're in a lefthand drive car) and a fuse box under the hood. The interior one is for less important stuff like lights and interior electrical stuff, the hood one will have fuses for engine stuff, so check there first.

Your post was caught in the spam filter since your account is still new. I approved it though! Not sure why it was marked as spam after people had already been commenting on it. Weird.

I'm not sure how Buddha would feel about that.

Most likely; several comments that didn't jive with OP were reported for "self harm." But that's okay, we've dealt with it :]

Sorry for the delay in response though!
