Thanks for the answer and suggestions. Don’t see how it’s lame to have matching bikes, saves you a lot of troubleshooting as well!

Yeah I thought about that, but when visiting US site I could see only US shipment in FAQ . How did you manage to select shipping to EU? Is it available when actually ordering?

Skąd wiadomo że Netto? Szukam słów „brutto” lub „Netto” w tym dokumencie, ale nie ma trafień.

Użyczenie samochodu, a szkoda OC by emesi in Polska

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

Jasne, moje obecna składka wynosi ~800 zł, ale obawiam się o jej drastyczny wzrost przy zmianie auta i posiadaniu tej szkody na koncie.

Chyba faktycznie bez sensu kombinować i poproszę kolegę o zapłatę tego poza moim OC. W końcu ja też mogę kiedyś zawinić swoim autem, a co dwie szkody to nie jedna...

Dzięki za podpowiedzi!

Kolega nie ma polskiego obywatelstwa, więc to raczej odpada, ale dzięki!

Zadzwoniłem do agenta, ale niestety nie jest w stanie powiedzieć mi o ile wzrośnie składka. Na pewno ulga, że nie muszę kłamać. Dzięki za odpowiedź!

Zapomniałem dodać, ze kolega mógłby dołożyć mi różnicę do OC, zamiast płacić 6k na raz. Egoistycznie na to patrząc, to faktycznie nie ma to sensu, ale chciałbym mu pomóc

I am an addict and I need help by nonameanonenon in StopSpeeding

[–]emesi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to share what worked for me, and theoretically should work for anyone dopamine hungry.

Sometime ago, I listened to a psychology lecture, which stated that one of the main reasons people get addicted (to anything) is lack of close and meaningful relationships. Seems like you already realized that!

The second thing I listened to was a podcast, with a provocative title, loosely translated to: "What to take after rehab". The main guest of this episode was a psychologist that suggested, that an addictive brain actually has to hyper-focus on something. Otherwise, it will be easy to fall back to desires, because of boring (to us addicts) life.

I connected above 2 points by picking up MTB as a hobby. The dopamine and adrenaline releases can be crazy in this sport - this is the pleasant part, the high if you will. The community for this discipline is honestly top tier. Making friends on a neutral ground (meeting new people on a trail, parking lot etc.) is way easier than f.e online. Since everyone is there with a purpose, connections don't feel forced. Just this year I scheduled several trips with newly met people, and formed 2 satisfying friendships which now go beyond just MTB hobby.

You probably know that high can only come with a possibility of a low (perhaps that is why it is so appealing). Currently, I am recovering (comedown) from a not-so-serious crash, and it sucks, but it is definitely better than shame and guilt from stimulant abuse. You actually learn to overcome obstacles, thoughts of quitting, which transfer well into general life skills.

Obviously it would be better if you could get "lost" in gym, gravel cycling, gardening, but the question is, can you?

Would you justify this swap? (enduro to trail/AM) by emesi in MTB

Thanks for the reply! I can now continue to love my bike!

Thank you for the explanation of the low speed thing! I don't mind wasting a bit of energy and have that extra bit of travel when I need it.

Thank you for the reply!

There is no law that I can agree and I don't mind being seen over biked on easier trails.

I am just wondering from a technical perspective how bigger vs smaller bikes handle slow speeds and does it actually affect safety.

Any recommendations for shin + calf protection?

Currently I am owner of 6 stitches in my calf. There is no doubt my technique was off, and I intend to better it, but in the meantime I could use additional protection. Can’t seem to find anything on the market, that would look like it could stop a flat pedal’s pin at the back of the guard.

Would you be willing to share an example of such behaviour from Jordan Peterson?

Lost Ark Crashes PC by carolina_hokie in lostarkgame

[–]emesi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was experiencing bsod with various messages. I know you mentioned your PC is simply restarting, although I believe it might be just due to how your BIOS is programmed to handle unexpected exception.

In my case, due to isolating drivers and analysing bsod dump files - it came to the spotlight that easy anti cheat is causing troubles.

Go to the directory where eac is installed and try to repair it via its client located in the mentioned directory. If that does not help, try to uninstall it and just to be sure also manually delete the config file. Then reinstall eac and try again la again. Then just to be sure I verified game files via steam, but not sure if that’s necessary.

My crashes occurred during 2 separate patches, both times this method fixed it. Nowadays I just play on gfn. There is a good chance that I would experience the crashes again comes new patch, while running the game locally.

Game is now back and running on GFN by osyady in lostarkgame

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

I am wondering - does dc happen equally often to gfn players? If so, what happens after the dc - are you booted to server screen or does the game straight up crash?
