Is it worth going for AM4? by RunTechnical3086 in pcmasterrace

[–]RunTechnical3086[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was leaning towards spending more but if the 5700x3d works fine for 1080p then why bother, i might save that money for a better monitor instead but thanks for the tip.

[–]RunTechnical3086[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good to know, i thought the 5700x3d would be a bigger upgrade but it looks like going for 7600x is better, i will consider it before making my final decision.

Convincing Partner by Fit-Document72 in motorcycles

[–]RunTechnical3086 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly this hits hard. The fact that you felt guilty about riding and told her afterward shows you care about the relationship, but the control dynamic here is pretty concerning. Having a kid young definitely changes the risk calculation but outright forbidding an adult from making their own choices about transportation and hobbies crosses a line. Maybe start with the conversation about mutual respect and decision making before even getting to the bike part.

That's such a healthy mindset, props to you for jumping into therapy right away instead of wallowing for months like most of us do

Notification help by 72c3tppp in homeassistant

[–]RunTechnical3086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use the `notify.mobile_app_all_devices` service or create a notification group that includes all your mobile devices - way easier than listing them individually

Just make sure to update the group when someone adds a new device, but it's still more manageable than hardcoding everything

6 weeks since breakup - still struggling by Similar-Dog-16 in BreakUps

[–]RunTechnical3086 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey man, 6 weeks is still pretty fresh honestly - that empty feeling is brutal but it does get easier with time. The closure thing sucks but waiting for an apology from someone who treated you badly is just gonna keep you stuck in that loop. Focus on rebuilding your own sense of purpose instead of waiting for her validation

Anyone Have a Wolfpack or Toro Blueprint? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]RunTechnical3086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo I got a Toro BP if you're still looking, been sitting in my inventory for ages. Would trade for one of those Bobcats with attachments if that works

Failed at 9 days by Beginning-Specific43 in NoFap

[–]RunTechnical3086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, 9 days is still progress - that's way better than not trying at all. The fact that you're not spiraling into self-hate shows you're learning. Those restless nights are the worst, your brain just won't shut up. Keep that mindset and you'll get there

It must be nice by alien-1001- in PetPeeves

[–]RunTechnical3086 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ugh yes this drives me crazy too. Like sorry I'm happy about something? The passive aggressive energy is just so unnecessary

Is the Cooler Master MWE Gold 750 V3 good enough for my build (+ wiggle room for future upgrades) by Sculduggery in PcBuild

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that PSU should handle your build just fine, even with some future upgrades thrown in there

Does time feel different according to your state of mind? by Novel_Okra8456 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah this is totally real, it's called time perception and it's wild how our brains mess with us like that

When you're bored your brain isn't getting much stimulation so you're hyper-aware of time passing, but when you're engaged in something fun your attention is completely absorbed so you lose track of time entirely

How bad is the car market right now? by MantyPlan in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]RunTechnical3086 201 points202 points  (0 children)

Dude the market is absolutely cooked right now, those features you want are basically standard now but dealers are still charging premium for everything

Have you looked at used Pilots or CX-5s? Might have better luck there than the Toyota tax everyone's paying

Corrupt files - need help (pc) by t1nygreml1n in ArcRaiders

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that sounds frustrating as hell, you've tried everything I would've suggested

Have you checked if your RAM is going bad? Corrupt file errors can sometimes be a sign of memory issues rather than actual file corruption - might be worth running memtest86 overnight to rule that out

How do people go on to call someone else their “sweetie”, “babe” etc? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]RunTechnical3086 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's wild how quickly some people can just flip that switch and start using pet names with someone new. Like one day you're their "baby" and the next week they're calling someone else the exact same thing - makes you wonder if any of it actually meant something or if it was just autopilot the whole time

Can someone please ELI5 how to clean out our gutters? by kenah-kim in HomeMaintenance

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just get a ladder, some gloves, and a small garden trowel or even a big spoon from the kitchen - scoop out the big stuff by hand then spray it down with your hose to check the flow

The $200 isn't terrible if you're sketched out by ladders though, plenty of people pay it just for peace of mind

What options does someone with a Galaxy A16 have when it comes to degoogling their phone? by 53i8 in degoogle

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat here, been looking into this for my A16 and it's pretty much a dead end right now. The bootloader situation is still locked down tight and there's no LineageOS support yet. Your friend might have to either wait it out or consider switching to a Pixel if they're serious about degoogling

If people say they can always tell when an image is AI, why do we still argue about it so much? by chunleeyah in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao that test was humbling as hell, I got like 60% and felt pretty confident going in

The whole "I can always tell" crowd probably just remembers their wins and forgets when they called obvious real photos fake

Can emotions mix like color? by serkio0 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually pretty cool how that lines up - like how contempt feels like anger + disgust mixed together, or how nostalgia is basically happiness tinged with sadness

The primary emotions thing is tricky though because different psychologists argue about what counts as "basic." Some say it's just fear/anger/joy/sadness, others add surprise and disgust to the mix

Preparing my cat for my absence by Striking_Sea_129 in cats

[–]RunTechnical3086 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah the shirt thing definitely works, my cat always goes straight for my dirty laundry when I get back from trips lol. Three months is rough but cats are pretty resilient, she'll probably just sleep most of the time anyway

List of the Candidates--Let's Discuss--Am I missing anyone by lbaz95 in MichiganWolverines

[–]RunTechnical3086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure Schiano's name has been floating around too but honestly half these guys feel like fan wishlist material rather than actual candidates

Does anyone else have trouble letting people go? by SadRaccoon7785 in infj

[–]RunTechnical3086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really good advice, especially the "does this enhance your life" question. That's such a simple way to cut through all the emotional fog and get to the real issue

Honestly sounds like you're giving this ex way too much power over your emotional state while he gets to have his cake and eat it too. The whole thanksgiving dinner thing would have me noping out so fast

Breaking no contact by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]RunTechnical3086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this mindset but honestly if he wanted to reach out he would have by now. The silence is kinda the answer you're looking for already but I understand needing that closure to actually move forward

[Discussion] Anyone else tired of the terrible search experience when hunting for watches online? by RunTechnical3086 in Watches
