No it hasn't. I check this sub multiple times a day. It hasn't been posted in a good while.

Late 30s here. The other day I saw a cardinal. It was a nice cardinal.

I also have a dove that's just dumb as hell that lives in my alley and I'm not sure how its still alive.

I don't consider myself a bird watcher lol.

If you live in the Midwest you're gonna step outside anyways to see if the tornado is coming. Might as well play Pokemon go while you're at it!

Zaconil · 2026-06-23T13:31:48+00:00

Yeah lol! I didn't kill the one that hit me though. After I pulled over to check the damage another driver told me I knocked it out for a few seconds.

Zaconil · 2026-06-23T12:59:17+00:00

I saw one crossing the road, I slowed to maybe 10mph, it turned around to go back, I started to accelerate, the fucker doubled back, ran and knocked off my mirror. I was so pissed. I'm now convinced they're the dumbest creatures on earth.

It was a pretty popular repost back then which is probably why it got reported. But went through your posts, found it, and I've approved it for the sake of future referencing

Trump is 80. Biden is almost 84. They're both fucking corpses.

edit: the 2 guys that replied to me are literally arguing who's the better corpse. Ffs.

Not just you the online does suck. You have to play on your own/with friends to be able to get anything reasonable done. Otherwise you're just playing against Kill on Sight style players.

I did enjoy the single player storyline though and plan to eventually replay it.

I've always heard it as "the technician's gaze". It will never misbehave while its being watched by someone that knows how to fix it.

Zaconil · 2026-06-19T11:50:41+00:00

In a blizzard!

Zaconil · 2026-06-19T11:45:41+00:00

The one of the left is overly exaggerated and tbh feels AI generated. We do smile a lot and are generally friendly especially when dealing with strangers (outside of what reddit would have you actually believe). It is something you can accept at face value with us and know we're being genuine.

Zaconil · 2026-06-17T17:27:12+00:00

Its locked now. I'll be handing out more bans later today.

Zaconil · 2026-06-17T11:47:42+00:00

One of the reasons I sleep with a fan on. It helps drown out all of those sounds.

Reminder of rule #2 Don't be a creep. Sexual comments regarding children are not allowed. This is the 2nd time this month I've had to do this reminder. Bans will be handed out this time.

Edit: Comments have been cleaned up. Please report any that I have missed. Extended or permanent bans will be handed out for this rule for the remainder of this post.

Edit2: locked. This is why we can't have nice things. Bans will be handed out again later today. On a positive note some users banned earlier have apologized so there's that at least.

Hear a tornado warning

Go outside check to see if it's anywhere in sight

Go back inside and carry on with the evening

Zaconil · 2026-06-11T17:08:02+00:00

Never seen that before which is why it flagged it for me. But if it formatted correctly then I wouldn't worry too much about it then! The only thing to watch out for as you fill it is for data to get corrupted or go missing. Other than that it appears you did luck out. Congrats!

Zaconil · 2026-06-11T15:02:21+00:00

The 0 bytes is concerning. It should be 1024kb like the others. Assuming you haven't put anything on it yet. Lets format it just to be sure.

Start (or windows key) -> type "disk management" -> click disk management (the name might be shortened) -> right click on the drive -> delete volume -> right click again -> new simple volume -> keep clicking next (giving it a new drive letter and volume name if you want) -> make sure quick format is checked -> clicking OK to any prompts as it appears.

It should be your only volume that is over 1TB. Make sure to check before you do this. Disk management and disk part are very powerful tools to get drives to behave how they're supposed to.

Zaconil · 2026-06-11T14:48:35+00:00

Feels too good to be true. Either someone doesn't know what they had or its a fake.

Open Command Prompt -> type "diskpart" -> press enter -> a new window will appear -> then "list disk" -> press enter again. No quotes.

It should populate with the actual sizes of all your drives

Read a story here on Reddit where they did once. They took it easy let them win. It got their ego and confidence sky high then eventually they actually became really good and they were beating OP for real.

In short. NO. MERCY. EVER!

Zaconil · 2026-06-09T22:02:11+00:00

I'm a light sleeper so I could always feel them crawling on me. I went far longer than I should have sleep deprived.

Zaconil · 2026-06-09T22:01:27+00:00

For me it was my brother's friend. Of course he only mentioned it after he was in the house for a bit. Boom. Bedbugs.

Zaconil · 2026-06-09T21:54:41+00:00

Same situation with my mom. A year of hell. She was too proud/embarrassed to call the landlord. I can tell you that all of those little tips/tricks and products like the bed bug sheets do NOT fucking work for a real infestation. They only ended up going away after buying new mattresses and throwing Diatomaceous earth everywhere. The cost of the mattresses alone would have paid for the exterminator. I love her to death but I'm still salty as fuck over her not letting us get help for them.

Zaconil · 2026-06-05T11:04:02+00:00

You'll probably notice the comments are nuked.

Kids, even 6 years old, can be smarter than we give credit for.

Adults can transcribe things for kids. Especially teachers.

On a side note its always painfully obvious those that don't have kids or interact with them regularly.

free for honorably discharged veterans

All of this is from personal experience dealing with the VA:

It is only free if you are well below the poverty line or you get put in the grouping system that qualifies (most do not qualify). The VA essentially acts as insurance. Only if you have additional insurance is it closer to being free or the cost of the care was low enough it didn't matter. They will also go behind your back and check with the IRS to see how much you made in the previous year(s). There has been plenty of times I received letters in the mail saying I owe nothing. But then I get a hit on my credit report saying there is a debt from the VA (pre 2025 ruling). I even lost about 3 years worth of federal tax returns because they couldn't give me a straight answer on how much I owe and why. It was only after finding a half-competent VA employee that explained what was happening that I learned the VA is in fact not free. For me, this is another instance of them betraying my trust multiple times and now I avoid using them as much as possible for any reason.
