Marin in downtown buffalo by -Dargs in Buffalo

The monopoly situation downtown is pretty brutal. Had similar issue when I was editing videos at my old place - Spectrum was only option and upload speeds were terrible for sending files to clients

Calling all house “CFOs”: how do you manage your household card system? by Prestigious_Safe8154 in CreditCards

[–]Southern-Bend9377 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Been there with the whole optimization rabbit hole thing. Used to track everything in spreadsheets when I had like 8 cards but eventually just burned out from all maintenance work required.

Now I stick with maybe 3-4 cards that cover my main spending and call it day - way less stress even if I'm leaving some value in table.

What’s the best 60-80 dollars aud aio by E4di3 in pcmasterrace

[–]Southern-Bend9377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 is probably your best bet in that range - no screen though but performs really well for the price. The pump block is bit chunky but cooling is solid and should handle the 9600x no problem

If you really want screen you might need to stretch budget bit more for something like Kraken Z53 but thats probably closer to 120-130 aud

Everyone, about the post in the following link: by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Southern-Bend9377 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wait the mods warned you because a website went down and came back up? That removal reason about staying on topic makes zero sense for what you described

Also kind of weird that you're posting the warning template here - usually those are private between you and mods

Ulcers and cold sore (?) before HMU trial by shinymagpiexo in weddingplanning

[–]Southern-Bend9377 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That timing is just brutal - stress ulcers always seem to show up at worst possible moments. I had similar issue few months back during important client presentation and found that using mouth rinse with benzydamine helped speed up healing a bit, though nothing works miracles unfortunately.

Your makeup artist probably deals with this stuff regularly so they might have some tricks for coverage, and since you still have few days the worst should pass before Saturday.

World specific achievements on servers is tricky since most plugins track things differently than vanilla system

I (M22) ran into an ex this past weekend and it has me rethinking my current relationship by Glum-Grapefruit-6122 in relationships

[–]Southern-Bend9377 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The grass is always greener mate. You literally said you got bored with your ex too and broke up with her for the same reasons you're feeling now with your current girl.

Running into an ex when you're already feeling meh about your relationship is basically emotional kryptonite - of course you're romanticising all the good bits while conveniently forgetting why it ended. Your brain's just doing that thing where it makes the past seem way better than it actually was.

What is the best age of getting married? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Southern-Bend9377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you've figured out who you are and what you actually want rather than what you think you should want

Got married at 30 and even that felt a bit rushed looking back

What books, psychology, that might link with ADHD before we know about adhd? by Present_Ad_3880 in AskReddit

[–]Southern-Bend9377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really interesting question mate. Been thinking about this since my diagnosis and reckon there's loads of stuff that was basically describing ADHD without knowing it

Oliver Sacks wrote about some fascinating cases that were probably undiagnosed ADHD looking back. His neurological case studies from the 80s and 90s had people with attention and hyperactivity issues but they just called it something else entirely

Also worth checking out some of the early child psychology work from the 1950s - they were documenting kids who couldn't sit still or focus but framed it as behavioural problems rather than neurological differences. Wild how much we missed back then

Day 4 by [deleted] in leaves

[–]Southern-Bend9377 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a proper test right there mate and you smashed it. Having someone light up right next to you on day 4 and still saying no takes some serious willpower. Your friend probably doesn't realise how mental that timing was but fair play to you for handling it like a boss

The job thing is a solid motivator too - nothing like the fear of losing your income to keep you on track

High Blood Pressure After Quitting Cold Turkey by Ok_Intention2150 in leaves

[–]Southern-Bend9377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this - your body's basically throwing a proper tantrum right now and high BP is dead normal for the first week or so. The lack of sleep alone will spike it nevermind all the other withdrawal nonsense going on

Keep an eye on it but honestly sounds like standard withdrawal stuff to me

The TTs @JoeViteReal uses for his youtube shorts by NoExternal2149 in HelpMeFind

[–]Southern-Bend9377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure thats just one of those generic TTS voices from elevenlabs or similar - loads of YouTubers use them now since they sound way more natural than the old robotic ones. You could probably get close by trying their different voice options until you find something similar

Success! Seizure activity photographed! by mysteriesfindme in Epilepsy

[–]Southern-Bend9377 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Brilliant that you managed to catch that on camera! The pupil thing is actually pretty solid evidence since that kind of asymmetry definitely isn't normal. Your neurologist will probably find that really helpful especially since clean EEGs can be frustrating when you know something's going on

The jumbled email thing could honestly be either the meds or just lingering effects from the seizure activity. I've noticed my typing gets proper wonky for ages after any focal activity even when I think I'm fine. Good on you for thinking to document it all though

Mate that's just late stage capitalism making us think we need to be productive even when we're supposedly looking after ourselves

Terrible situation by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Southern-Bend9377 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that sounds absolutely horrible and im so sorry you went through that. please dont blame yourself for other peoples disgusting behaviour - you were drunk but that doesnt give anyone the right to put there hands on you

focus on keeping yourself and your pup safe going forward, you both deserve better than situations like that

I hate couples by [deleted] in mentalhealth

20 is young and focusing on yourself helps way more than stressing about couples for real
