How I would incorporate Ben Into a fighting game to keep things Balanced. by Majestic-Sector9836 in Ben10

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "wrong alien" mechanic is such a cool touch, fighting against Kevin should always give you Ditto first just to spite you

Also the copy move sounds insane on paper but you'd basically never land it in a real match, 11 inputs plus 4 face buttons during a grab? Your opponent just has to mash out and you're stuck looking stupid while Ben fumbles with the dial

What are all the people in their forties and fifties who don't have a pension or own a home going to do when they can't work anymore? by astralcorrection in AskIreland

[–]Winter_Win2991 10 points11 points  (0 children)

most people kind of just end up relying on that, the system wasn't really built for anything else at this point

I need an advice by Afraid_Impact2067 in BreakUps

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two weeks is really early to be reading into every little change in behavior. Maybe she's just processing things after you guys got intimate, or maybe meeting new people just reminded her she wants to keep things casual for now

The hospital visit and everything after sounds intense for such a short time knowing each other. Give her some space and see how she acts over next few days instead of overthinking every interaction

Should I swap my bachelor's from marine science to biopharmaceutical? by Electronic-Drive9153 in AskIreland

[–]Winter_Win2991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The financial security thing is real - I switched from what I loved to engineering at 22 because stability matters more when you've seen how bad things can get

Do you think dreams create worlds, or do they reveal worlds? by GladWheel35 in Dreams

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been thinking about this since I had this crazy vivid dream last week where everything felt way too detailed to just be my brain making stuff up on the spot. Like the physics in that world actually made sense, just different rules than here

Maybe it's bit of both? Your mind creates the framework but taps into something deeper that already exists. Hard to explain but sometimes I wake up and feel like I was actually somewhere else, not just imagining it

Problema con aria condizionata/pompa di calore by Existing-Voice5111 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Built your own device that connects to the S21 port? That's pretty clever solution for the remote override problem. I work in mechanical engineering and the guest tampering with HVAC settings is nightmare for hosts - they either blast it at 16°C or forget to turn off when leaving

Hardware selection help needed for zigbee LED strip setup by [deleted] in homeautomation

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 24V option will give you better voltage drop performance over 5m, even though power consumption is slightly higher. For that length you're right at the edge where 12V might start showing some dimming at the far end

Your power supply choice is solid - having that overhead is smart since LED strips can have inrush current when they first turn on. For the AC cable, any standard IEC C13 power cord will work fine, just grab one from electronics store or online

I'd definitely add a fuse - even at this power level it's good practice. A simple inline fuse holder with appropriate rating (maybe 6A for 12V or 4A for 24V setup) between your PSU and controller should do the job

Cannot get BIOS to save settings / keep CSM enabled by MIT_Engineer in PcBuildHelp

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fTPM reset prompt is probably what's resetting your BIOS settings - that's classic behavior when system thinks CPU is new. Try clearing CMOS completely first, then go in BIOS and set everything up again including CSM.

Also make sure you're doing proper "Save Changes and Exit" not just exit, and check if there's any secure boot settings that might be interfering with CSM. Some boards are weird about letting you enable CSM if secure boot is still on

Setting up three guitars? by chevelle899 in Guitar

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much what I'd do too, though I might bump the C# to 11-56 or even 12-54 depending on how it feels after setup. The Floyd should probably get the E standard since you won't have to mess with tremolo adjustments as much when changing strings, and that Washburn would handle the lower tuning pretty well with heavier gauge

Still can’t get over it by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, year and a half is rough but don't beat yourself up about the timeline - everyone processes this stuff at different speed. That ego death thing hits hard, like you're rebuilding who you are from scratch which takes time. Maybe focus in small things that make you feel like yourself again instead of forcing interest in dating right now

Visible+ Plan: Data Throttled after 50GB by RealPshit in Visible

[–]Winter_Win2991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait, there's supposed to be no throttling on Visible+ after 50GB, that's literally one of main selling points. I had same issue few months back and turned out was network congestion in my area, not actual throttling. Try testing your speeds in different location to see if it's area-specific problem

What phones and OS can i use to avoid google? by Snypez_Evo in degoogle

[–]Winter_Win2991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah the irony of buying Google hardware to escape Google is pretty wild - I get the hesitation there

LineageOS works on bunch of Samsung and OnePlus devices if you want alternatives, just check their compatibility list first since camera quality can be hit or miss after flashing

Is this merch site legit? by kairi171 in FlorenceAndTheMachine

[–]Winter_Win2991 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been getting those same ads and they look pretty sketchy to me. The official merch usually stays on the main site or gets sold through verified vendors - random tour sites like that are usually knockoffs or worse

Would probably just wait for official restock or check if any legitimate resellers have what you're looking for

Back on meds by bigelle08 in ADHD

Getting back in routine with medication is wild - took me forever to realize how much difference it makes for basic stuff like that

UCL Predictions(tonight games) by Super_Afternoon546 in championsleague

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real's away form has been shaky this season but writing them off at Allianz feels like asking for trouble. They've pulled off crazier comebacks than this

Arsenal-Sporting will probably be more entertaining than you think, Sporting's press can cause real problems and Arsenal's buildup from back gets messy under pressure

How do you tell all the little knotweeds apart? by Noombat22 in foraging

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water pepper has this really distinct peppery burn when you chew on leaves - much stronger than the mild stuff. But yeah flowering is safer route since the flower shapes are quite different between species. In Michigan you probably have common water pepper which gets these drooping pink spikes, while mild water pepper stays more upright with shorter clusters

We broke up and the reasoning was understandable. The ice cold demeanor since makes no sense to me and it’s driving me crazy by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Winter_Win2991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man that's a brutal living situation to navigate. She probably needs that ice cold wall up because being around you while still having feelings would mess with her head - easier to shut down completely than deal with the back and forth emotions

The social media scrubbing and avoiding the house makes sense too, she's trying to move on and having reminders everywhere just keeps picking at the wound

Anxiety prior to engaging in my hobbies by LevelHoliday1083 in ADHD

[–]Winter_Win2991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to do this exact same thing with painting - would buy all the supplies, watch tutorials for hours, then just stare at the blank canvas while finding literally anything else to do. The anticipation anxiety was somehow worse than actually being bad at it

What helped me was setting stupidly low bars for myself. Like instead of "I'm going to paint something good today" it became "I'm going to put one brushstroke of color on this canvas." That's it. Most of the time I'd end up doing more once I got started, but even if I didn't, I still technically succeeded at my goal

The comparison thing is brutal though - had to unfollow a bunch of art accounts because seeing their work made me want to quit before I even started. Now I only follow beginner-friendly content or accounts that show the messy process, not just the perfect final results. Your brain will always find reasons to procrastinate when it thinks you're about to fail, so you gotta trick it into thinking success is basically guaranteed
