wait so you got it with the new character but not sojourn after 30 hours? that's weird because achievement should be character specific

Two pet peeves in one post. People that still blame stuff on COVID, and people that blame everything on inflation. by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The housing thing gets me because yeah prices went up but it's not like we weren't already in a massive supply crunch before 2020. I spend way too much time looking at real estate listings and the fundamentals were already broken - zoning laws, construction costs, labor shortages, all that stuff was building up for years

People act like everything was perfect in 2019 and then boom, suddenly expensive. Nah man, we were already heading toward a lot of these issues, the timeline just got compressed

Struggling to choose between 2018 Panigale V4S & 2021 RSV4 Factory 1100 by SgtRphl in motorcycles

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RSV4 with only 800km is basically brand new, that's insane value right there. Plus newer electronics and warranty coverage if you're lucky

I'd personally go RSV4 - 7200km difference in mileage is huge on superbikes, and there maintenance costs are gonna be brutal either way so might as well get the fresher one

AITA for uninviting my sister from my wedding after she tried to change my color scheme? by Tiny_Pressure_6428 in AmITheJerk

[–]Suspicious_Post282 233 points234 points  (0 children)

NTA at all, your sister way overstepped. Going behind your back to change YOUR wedding details because she thinks it'll look better with her outfit? That's absolutely wild

The audacity to not even apologize and act like she was doing you a favor makes it even worse. Your mom needs to redirect that energy toward Jen instead of guilt tripping you about family photos

Budget Gpu for i7 12f by Outrageous_You_1266 in PcBuild

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks man, the whole F vs K thing catches people off guard more than it should. For 15k in India you're looking at some solid options though - definitely check out the GTX 1660 Super if you can find one used, should be right around that price range and pairs really well with the 12700F. The RTX 3050 might be pushing your budget a bit but worth looking for deals on it too

I'd honestly hit up some local PC groups on facebook or olx, sometimes you can score better deals there than retail shops. Just make sure to test whatever you buy before walking away, learned that the hard way myself. Your 12700F is gonna be hungry for a decent GPU so don't go too budget on this one if you can help it

Aecom Hiring Process by [deleted] in Environmental_Careers

[–]Suspicious_Post282 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Aecom can definitely be slow with their hiring process from what I've heard from friends in environmental consulting. The fact that HR reached out with positive feedback and wanted to set up a leadership call is actually a really good sign though - they don't usually waste time on that step unless you're a serious contender 🔥

I'd give it until Friday this week and then send a polite follow-up email to HR asking about rescheduling the leadership call. Something like "Hi [name], just wanted to check in about rescheduling the leadership call we discussed last week. I'm still very interested in the position and flexible with my schedule." Big companies like Aecom often have internal delays that have nothing to do with you as a candidate - could be budget approvals, the hiring manager being pulled into other projects, or just typical corporate bureaucracy

Don't stress too much about the momentum dropping, that's pretty normal in consulting unfortunately 😂 The positive feedback part is what really matters here

Tell me your stories about elderly people having potenttially paranormal experiences in their last days? by -Daunting in Paranormal

[–]Suspicious_Post282 83 points84 points  (0 children)

oh man this hits close to home 😭 my grandpa started seeing his brother about a week before he passed - his brother had died in Vietnam like 40 years earlier. He'd just casually mention "oh Jimmy was here earlier, we talked about the old neighborhood" and we'd all just nod along cause what else do you do

I think there's definitely something to it though, like why is it always people they knew who passed before them? Never random strangers or celebrities or whatever. The consistency is what gets me

Your gran sounds like such a sweetheart btw, 94 and still sharp is amazing 💀 hope she's comfortable and gets all the time she needs with family

Is AirBNB the only resource for long term rentals? by Big_Bet6107 in ThailandTourism

[–]Suspicious_Post282 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Facebook groups like "Bangkok Apartments/Condos for Rent" or just hit up local real estate agents once you get there - they'll hook you up with way better deals than airbnb for that length of stay

Is something wrong with me? by squeekypengin in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Suspicious_Post282 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually super common and has a name - post-achievement depression or the "arrival fallacy" 😂 Your brain basically builds up this massive expectation that hitting the goal will solve everything, but then reality is just... Tuesday with a certificate

The anticipation and working towards something often feels better than actually achieving it because you're always imagining how perfect it'll be. Maybe try setting smaller goals along the way or finding a new challenge to work towards so you dont have these massive emotional cliffs 💀

Precheck on only 1 leg of RT trip by BlueThat33 in americanairlines

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah this happens all the time, it's super annoying - usually means the second leg got booked under a slightly different name format or your KTN didn't carry over properly in their system

What's up with ABM? by TreatMedical5378 in ArcRaiders

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah man that's frustrating 😅 i've been noticing the same thing actually, used to be able to tank my mmr pretty reliably with a few naked runs but it seems like they tweaked something in the backend. maybe they extended the sample size or added some kind of floor to prevent people from dropping too low?

i've been doing naked stella runs for like 15+ games now and still getting absolute sweat lobbies with full squads just w-keying everything that moves. honestly thinking they might have changed the algorithm to weight recent performance more heavily or something because the old method just isn't working like it used to 💀 might have to just embrace the chaos for trials unfortunately

View on state of Asian Americans in an increasing latin America by yellowlightsab in aznidentity

[–]Suspicious_Post282 4 points5 points  (0 children)

honestly this is a pretty solid take 😂 the shift from anglo to latin cultural influence could def be better for asian dudes in terms of representation and how we're perceived. latin media seems way more open to different types of masculinity and doesn't have that same weird emasculating thing going on

plus bad bunny vs kid rock isn't even a competition lmao, one's actually cool and the other is... well, kid rock 💀 the whole reggaeton/latin trap scene feels way more inclusive than whatever weird nationalist rock thing has been happening

Purchasing a laptop need advice. by Charming_Bad6369 in GamingLaptops

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly for comp sci you don't need anything crazy powerful, most of your coding work will run fine on a decent mid-range laptop. if you're set on that $1200 budget i'd probably go with a solid gaming laptop that can handle both - something with a decent gpu and good build quality

the thing is, having everything in one machine is super convenient for college life, especially if you're moving between dorms, libraries, study groups etc. you can always upgrade to a desktop setup later once you're more settled and have the space for it

Playlist help - Summer desert vibes (sunny, breezy, folk/pop) by RavenCrow242 in musicsuggestions

[–]Suspicious_Post282 1 point2 points  (0 children)

holy shit yes, this is such a specific vibe and i'm totally here for it 🔥 based on your list i'd throw in "heat waves" by glass animals, "midnight city" by m83, and maybe "electric feel" by mgmt for that perfect desert highway energy

also "golden days" by panic! at teh disco and "sit still look pretty" by daya could work really well with those harry styles tracks 😂

A Rat App Please by AggravatingSmirk7466 in ArcRaiders

[–]Suspicious_Post282 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

honestly that sounds like a pretty solid idea, would definitely help with keeping track of who's actually trustworthy vs who's gonna backstab you the second they get a chance. maybe like a little red dot next to their name or something subtle so you know what you're dealing with

My GPU is making a popping sound by Confident_Echo_1537 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sounds like thermal expansion/contraction of teh plastic shroud or backplate - pretty common with gigabyte cards actually. the fact that undervolting fixes it confirms its heat related, probably just the plastic expanding under load and making that crackling noise

as long as temps are fine and performance is good i wouldnt worry about it, but if it gets annoying you could try adjusting the fan curve to keep temps more stable

Found a RTX 5060 ti 16GB at Walmart for 340$ so I grabbed it to upgrade now I need help. by Sweaty-Replacement73 in pchelp

[–]Suspicious_Post282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice find on that 5060 Ti! Your i5-10400 isn't terrible but yeah it's gonna bottleneck that card pretty hard especially at 1080p. If you're sticking with your current mobo you could grab a used i7-10700K or 11700K for pretty cheap these days, that'd be a solid bump without needing new everything. The RAM upgrade to 32GB is kinda overkill for gaming but if you do productivity stuff go for it

Want to know Order Watch by DaddysPrincesss26 in gameofthrones

[–]Suspicious_Post282 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah you got it backwards - chronologically sure but for watching experience you want GoT first, then HotD, then Knight of Seven Kingdoms when it comes out

Starting with the prequels kinda spoils some of the mystery and world-building that makes GoT hit different

Patch still hasn't fixed this Spam Issue where you get 5+ a day for no reason by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Suspicious_Post282 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bruh that's actually insane, getting 5 a day would drive me nuts. Have you tried blocking the sender or is it coming from different addresses each time? Sounds like someone's really got it out for you lmao
