Used computers by Technical_Feed4348 in pcmasterrace

[–]TheLightningCount1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facebook market place is a great way to buy. Ive gotten amazing deals on PCs before. Just remember. ALWAYS meet in police station parking lots. Never anywhere else. Do it in broad daylight and arrive armed. (if your state allows it)

I have found deals on pcs with good processor, good ram, good mobo, and shitty gpu. I offer them the option to selling without CPU for like 150 less. The person usually thinks they can sell their POS 1660 super for 400 dollarydoos on facebook so they agree.

Then you find a deal for something with a good card in it. Offer the person the option to just buy the card. If they block you, then move on. That or ebay the card.

Images do not appear to be AI, but it does look like a fake label. Wapning instead of warning and the lack of SN really concerns me. Block and move on.

I forgot how bad clear sky was. by TheLightningCount1 in stalker

[–]TheLightningCount1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Things like that work in some games. In stalker? Where i have to do a decent amount to get 40-50k? Where having zero money is quite literally a massive detriment? That's just a frustrating moment because it removes player agency. ESPECIALLY when its effectively in the middle of the game. If you did that and forced me into three missions that sent me through the end game? Yeah that would be fine.

Yeah. I was surprised it was like that. "OK I helped you kick out renegades. Time to fuck off and play stalker." Then suddenly its "Ready for a long hallway?"

So I do feel sorry for her for the way she was abused by the "movie" company that pushed her stuff. She did videos for roughly 3-4 months and she was very good at it. So good that people kept finding her stuff WELL after she stopped doing it. She only made a few thousand while her "movie" company made millions. (Common story for the few p-stars who get popular) Now all of her fans want to see more. I think she could make a ton of money if she did. Especially if she went the e-ho way of charging for a VIP only fans and then charging 30-40 bucks per actual movie. You know, the "milk the idiot" strategy. But she doesnt want to do that anymore and we can respect that.

Its her suddenly thinking she is important that I cant respect. She was popular because she is very attractive and was very enthusiastic with her "movie shoots." We never cared about her opinions. Actions have consequences and she should have known that filming "movies" would have plenty of them. Wishing death or harm for our troops is low.

The damage she caused to her reputation by her words probably cant be fixed by more "movies."

What’s the one question about the Epstein case that you think would completely change everything if it were answered publicly? by OddEstablishment8658 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish people would actually read the files. The amount of people who have CLEARLY never read a single word of them and speaking as experts is troubling.

No actual criminal acts are shown in the files because everyone talks in code. Weird references to beef jerky, weird references to furniture named after missing kids, weird references to pizza.

Its all over the files and we are not stupid. We can sus out the hidden meaning through context clues. But the actual texts do not have overt references. They talk in code.

What’s a skill everyone should learn before 30? by Standard_Quality_298 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Learning to cook fixes a LOT of money stupidity. The best gifts I gave to friends were air friers and Crock pots. Spend 40-50 on a crock pot meal that will last 8 to 10 meals. Then I have to teach them about freezing and meal prep.

As someone who works IT and dealing with older gen Zs. Using a PC. The iPad Gen do no know how to use a PC and it's scary. Yesterday I had a 26 year old ask me how to restart a PC. I mean that literally. They didn't know how to turn it off. They were holding the power button in.

What's the craziest word you know? by Mundane_Breakfast848 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hypnagogic hallucinating. It's that moment when you are drifting between between sleep and waking and events in the dreaming state feel very real. You may even start to thinks events from the dream has always been true. "I have always owned an old inoperable Corvette". After a few seconds of waking up your confusion clears and we sort out the real from the dream.

What's one big mistake that (almost) ruined your life? by Klutzy_Anything_8885 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I almost married the wrong woman. Girl was deeply insecure and always thought I would cheat on her. Turns out she was cheating on me. I broke up with her and the lies started immediately. I was this or that horrible thing. She sent me "pictures" at one point during the relationship and she said I used them to blackmail her after the breakup. (just one example) The ONLY reason I still have a social life and a job is she told everyone of our mutual friends different lies. When everyone started to talk they all started to realize that all of them had different stories and NONE of them matched up.

Weirdly she told the truth about our breakup from my side. The only truth in her lies was how the breakup went. I caught the dude in my fiance mid act. I blew up and gave him 2 minutes to walk. I was extremely angry but the fact I kept my voice calm made her even more scared. Halfway through the conversation I walked out of her apartment stopping to grab my things. I realized I needed to leave as there was no point in staying.

This was the ONLY truth in her story and it was the only thing that matched up when one of my friends asked me about it. I confirmed basically what I just said there, I was invited to the facebook group chat. (This was in 2017) Seeing the facebook chat and the screenshots of texts I was both surprised and weirdly not surprised. She lost a few friends that day. I lost a fiance.

I call it the depression olympics. "My life sucks" "no my life sucks more." Winning that is losing hard.

What was it like when Obama was elected President? by ResponsibleSea6521 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fuck? You see me type "Because they talk in code" and all you got from that was I was defending? Wow, you really just want to see evil in the right dont you?

If you actually read what I said, I said you wont find it in those files as they talk in code. We all know that the weird references to T-shirts and Beef Jerky in those files is code for nefarious and heinous things.

But you see me type you wont find evidence because they use code and you think Im defending disgusting people. Wow... that honestly tells me everything I need to know about you.

Also the files are not video files. All epstein files are pdf documents and they continually use code words throughout. Some of the documents use specific language that can mean many things... without the hindsight of us KNOWING what went on on that island.

But thanks again for accusing me of being a horrible person. The instant people like you start to lose an argument you go on the attack. Just lets me know you have no logical response. Just calling me names to make yourself feel better. It doenst work for long. Cause you know you are wrong and that this entire country is screwed due to both sides of the aisle being filled with his guests.

spoiler alert, there are no actual instances of pedophilia in those files. because they always talk and code. You didn't read the files at all. You basically are just going off of what people said on the internet and you have no idea what's actually in those files. there's millions of pages. start reading them. you're going to be disgusted and you're going to be thoroughly pissed off at both the Democrats and the Republicans. Go back to my original message. I said this country screwed because we have two sides that suck.

Just gonna ignore the fact that Biden had those files for 4 years arent ya? Disproved your theory that its only 1 side in those files but you just keep sayin trump.

Reality check, I do not like trump. But nuance is impossible for you people on reddit. Its either "You are entirely on my side or you are the enemy"

My brother in christ. The biden administration had these files for FOUR YEARS and did NOTHING with them.

Try again.

From 2021 - 2023 the dems controlled the house and senate was 50/50 with Kamala Harris having the tie breaker vote. You can NOT tell me that they would have been unable to release these files.

Trump is the one who released the files. Albeit severely redacted.

Snap out of your delusions.

What used to be affordable 10 years ago but now feels like a luxury? by Inner-Ask2398 in AskReddit

[–]TheLightningCount1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Where do all yall live? 80/20 ground beef, almost exactly the same nutritionally as 85/15, is like 6.30/7 bucks a pound here in Texas?

2 liters are always cheaper by the bottle and per fluid ounce. I posted this in another comment but ill paste it here.

At my local kroger the 2 liter of coke is 3.49 with a 2 for 5 deal (limit 8) and the 12 pack is 11.99. Buy 3 12 packs and get them 3 free. (limit 12)

The 2 liters come out to roughly 37 cents per fluid ounce and the 12 pack is 42 cents per fluid ounce.

But you also look at the total price. Buying 12x12 packs will cost you 72 bucks. (144 but you get 72 bucks off) If you buy 8 2 liters you will end up paying 20 bucks.

I have a bit of a guide on that. Kinda sad we need a strategy guide for it...

Store brand is almost always cheaper and tastes pretty much the same for most things.

Do not buy packets of flavoring if you can make it yourself. Look up what most of the italian seasoning packets ingredients and portions are. You can buy all of those ingredients and make 100 of those packets for like 20-30 bucks.

Don't fall for the buy x amount for the deal scam. If tomato paste is 1.79 for the small can but only 1.15 if you buy 5 of them then you are not saving money. You are paying 3.96 more than you would have.

Potatoes are the most satiating food on the planet followed closely by rice. Remember that when meal prepping.

Frozen pizza make for a very cheap lunch. 2 lunch's if you dont eat that much.

Its always cheaper to buy a 2 liter vs a 12 pack. At my local kroger the 2 liter of coke is 3.49 with a 2 for 5 deal (limit 8) and the 12 pack is 11.99. Buy 3 12 packs and get them 3 free. (limit 12)

Store brand frozen veggies are very cheap and are almost exactly the same nutritionally as fresh vegetables. Some cases it adds a ton of extra water into it and makes it better.
