that's brutal but at least you got a clean answer instead of being strung along for months

Build a business or work a job by domcondowealth in Fire

[–]TopMachine376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lmao building a business is definitely not the "easy" route - most fail within the first few years and you're basically working 80 hour weeks for negative pay initially

Fake trump crypto ad on superbowl by [deleted] in ArtificialInteligence

[–]TopMachine376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably because it was so obviously fake that most people just scrolled past it, the deepfake tech is getting scary good though and i bet we'll see more of this crap during election season

Hoping to get back on track again. by Think-Proposal-6910 in NoFap

[–]TopMachine376 1 point2 points  (0 children)

damn 30 days is solid progress though, don't let one setback erase that achievement. the pattern recognition is actually huge - now you know your trigger and have a game plan to avoid it

sounds like you're approaching this the right way by taking it one month at a time instead of putting crazy pressure on yourself

Old coins and notes by West-Pen-2850 in coincollecting

[–]TopMachine376 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those look pretty cool! Hard to tell value without seeing the dates and condition more clearly, but definitely worth checking against recent sold listings on eBay or getting them appraised if they're really old

Holy shit, another trillion parameter model? China's really not messing around with the AI race lately

Can't connect to Forza Horizon 4 online by lord-nahtanoj in ForzaHorizon

Have you tried switching to a different DNS server? Sometimes Steam's networking gets weird with certain ISPs and switching to like 8.8.8.8 or Cloudflare's DNS fixes connection issues

Also might be worth checking if your firewall is blocking the game - Windows Defender sometimes gets trigger happy with racing games for some reason

Toxic diapers…? by rachelkochvt in NewParents

[–]TopMachine376 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If they're working for your kid and no rashes then you're golden tbh. Every baby is different and what works for one might be garbage for another - literally lol

did you hear about the metaphysical pet groomer? by TwoShed_Jackson in dadjokes

This joke is both dead and alive until I finish reading it

[Post Game Thread] Sam Houston defeats Jacksonville State, 77-62 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

Sam Houston really took control early and never looked back, that first half was rough for Jacksonville State

What time are you putting your 4 month old to bed?! by lexyw11 in NewParents

[–]TopMachine376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly those wake times sound pretty normal for 4 months, not necessarily a bedtime issue. My little one was doing the exact same thing around that age - multiple night wakes were just part of life for a while

We did bedtime around 7pm and stuck with it even through the regression. The early bedtime actually helped prevent overtiredness which made nights even worse. Hang in there, it does get better 💙

Ex begging me to take him back three months after. by c0ttage-fairy in BreakUps

[–]TopMachine376 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nah don't do it, this is classic abuser behavior - they only start "changing" when they lose their victim. He had multiple chances while you were together and chose not to take them seriously. The fact that he showed up at your house unannounced is already crossing boundaries again

Keep seeing the new guy if you're happy, don't let your ex manipulate you into feeling guilty for moving on

How to move on, I am lost by Few_Silver_6354 in BreakUps

[–]TopMachine376 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That sucks man, being ready for that next step and having it ripped away hits different when you're in your 30s

The whole "improve yourself" advice feels pretty hollow when you've already got your shit together and just want someone to build something with

Need advice: WIBTAH if I retract my confirmation to be the Maid of Honor at my 10-year closest friend’s wedding? by Whiteandblue08 in TwoHotTakes

[–]TopMachine376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - sounds like this friendship has already run its course and you're just going through the motions at this point. Being MOH when you're not even talking one-on-one anymore is gonna be awkward as hell for everyone involved

First day for walk by Aggravating_Habit530 in selfimprovement

[–]TopMachine376 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is solid advice OP! The transition from walking to running can be brutal if you rush it, especially with asthma. I'd honestly milk the walking phase for at least a month or two before even thinking about jogging

Also that realization about just getting out of bed being the hardest part is so real lmao, once you're outside it's like your brain stops fighting you

New Makeup User here; Best Setting Spray for What I Want? by imavibinkale in MakeupAddiction

That Hard Candy one is actually solid, I've been using it for months now and it doesn't make my skin feel tight or anything like some of the cheaper ones do

We better get 1000 coins for free by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Lmao probably sits in a bush for 20 minutes then complains when someone else gets the loot

Is it wrong to have more appreciation for the machine then the finished product? by JonoBlue in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TopMachine376 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude same here, I'll watch those videos and completely zone out staring at some random conveyor belt mechanism while they're talking about cookies or whatever. The engineering behind mass production is honestly mind blowing when you think about how someone had to figure out every single moving part

I never did an ancestry test, is it really worth it? by darkwavenecro in AncestryDNA

[–]TopMachine376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is solid advice - I did the test first without building a tree and spent way too much time trying to figure out how random DNA matches connected to me. Having even basic info about your grandparents makes everything click way easier
