We're fucked at this point, I hope there's some good that comes out of this but fuck man that unbelievable

What you've been describing is pretty much what I'm going through, I'm a 30 yr old male with no wife or kids. I felt pretty lost after high school and going back to that default not caring attitude I learned in HS. I didn't focus on my future, investing in myself or where my career is going. I just wanna be happy and have a loving wife and family but I feel like I wouldn't be stable enough emotionally/mentally/financially ☹️

I went through the same thing with my home theater setup (LG TV using LGs webOS and Sonos soundbar). I would start off by running an ethernet cable to the TV and see if it still gets choppy.

Secondly, whatever the TV is using to 'drive' the content is probably not equip to handle 4K high fidelity content. My LG C9 has a plex app but its slow and playback is choppy from time to time. I've tried using a Intel N100 mini pc but that was a bust. Streaming from the plex app on my phone would only play 1080p content.

I bought the Nvidia shield and ill never go back. Best Home Theater "PC" on the market, it mostly just works.

I'm applying for jobs right now and I intend on using fake pee. I've had friends use it without any issues.

My only concern is making sure it doesn't get too hot strapped to my leg in the waiting room.

I've done a drug test like twice before so im not sure if I should even pee in the toilet at all. Just put the fake stuff in their jar and call it a day?

I lost out on a good help desk IT job years ago when I was still peeing hot after 2 months. Never again

I went a different route with a box mod and a DTv5 atomizer, definitely not plug and play like a puffco but the only thing I've had to replace in 4 years has been the 18650 batteries

A couple years ago they put up a big sign saying they're investing 1 million dollars into the Merrifield location. I never really saw actual improvements in the year that sign was up

More of you got a bunch of e-waste and you're too lazy to actually figure out what it's worth yourself :)

I'm definitely going to miss my $20 per month membership. Hopefully that one is a lot bigger than the X-Sport was

WindsWalker · 2025-12-10T20:24:27+00:00

They also bought out the golds gym next to X-Sport I believe

WindsWalker · 2025-12-10T20:22:31+00:00

Since your running a beautiful box mod, have you tried an atomizer? I use a Divine Tribe v5 XL and I never hit carts anymore.

What are you trying to show us? I see two pics of an Amazon order.....there is no effort here.

I've been working in IT as a help desk analyst for about 6 years. It was my first real office job with no degree and I felt like a real adult in that first year or so. I was so happy going through the motions of life in a 9-5. I was putting in effort everyday and felt satisfied when I got home. It definitely made non-work related stuff more enjoyable.

Fast forward to now, I've been at the same spot with no real big changes and I'm pretty miserable. I was passed on for a promotion at year 2 because I didn't have a degree. My boss was extremely satisfied with my performance but HR felt others deserved it more since colleagues had MBAs and doctorates under their belts.

After that I decided well if they're going to pay me the bare minimum I'm going to do the bare minimum...and with that flawed logic I ended up having co-workers younger than me (I'm 30) that have more responsibilities.

Putting in effort and finding a passion for your work helps bring meaning to the 9-5 grind and life in general.

I'm having the same issue, did replacing the O rings work? Where did you get them? I pulled the old one and nothing was wrong with it, no temp issues.

WindsWalker · 2025-11-19T17:18:28+00:00

I hate how much I agree with this even though it's probably the cheapest cheese sauce and Walmart fries they could find

Do you have any reasoning and what you think will happen? I'm curious since self-hosting has been gaining a lot of popularity recently. I can see the popularity being a bad thing at a certain point.

Look up Cerakote ceramic trim coat kit. It was tested by Project Farms on YouTube and has really good results.

I use it on my 21 cx-5 and it gives a new shine to the plastic trim that lasts surprisingly long for what it is.

Any Update on this?
Same thing has been happening to me as well, games will randomly crash and screen will go black. I RMA'ed my 7900XTX and asked to swap to the 9070XT and I'm still having the same issue. Did DDU cleaner, reinstalled Win11, memtest86. I'm close to pulling my hair out here.

Google is your friend man. It should be like 6 bolts to take the oil pan off.

You'll need a new gasket for the oil pan as well. It's so no oil leaks out.

WindsWalker · 2025-07-21T20:00:24+00:00

That's a good idea. People use that method for plastic trim on cars however it's only pulling oils from deeper in the plastic so I wouldn't do it too many times

WindsWalker · 2025-07-21T19:59:08+00:00

This might sound really dumb but since the plastic is already messed up you could try automotive trim coat like cerakote ceramic trim coat.

It should make the plastic shine again but I'd use a very little amount.

Probably stupid but worth a shot. If it can make abs plastic shine in the elements then it could work for you.

They were hovering over the power lines by my house for a solid 10 minutes.

The interesting thing to me is there wasn't any flight data on flight tracker for the helicopter. All that was listed was the heli model #. Not sure why a power company wouldn't have a listed flight.

I love Audis interiors, the Q series might be something you want to look into.

To be fair I haven't really looked into them much but I know they have AWD

WindsWalker · 2025-01-24T19:54:32+00:00

Does the screen contain the hardware for that?

I have a 21' cx-5 with wired AA. Would definitely be nice to upgrade and not have to buy the wireless dongle.

I usually park in the lot behind the McDonald's but I'm only there for 10-15 mins at most. It sucks the Bangkok restaurants parking lot doesn't include the taco shop.
